OK, so asking for FAQ entries didn't work. So how about a bribe?
Post a message number for a Castle FAQ entry, and I'll send you a
Castle-themed minifig. Free. To qualify for the minifig, you must be the
first to post or e-mail me the particular message number that answers a
frequently asked question, and I must use that entry in the FAQ. It's that
simple.
Don't know where to start? Here are some examples:
- Where are the rules for Castle wars (or Brick wars)? #11739
(and one answer for BrikWars: /org/au/?n=476 )
- What sets have yellow tudor walls? #8108
- What are some good resources for Castle building? #8474
Still don't know where to look? Try dumping a bunch Castle postings at a
time. For instance this displays the messages from #300 to #400:
http://news.lugnet.com/castle/?n=300,100&v=a
Then read them all, and cull out the good ones:
- #305 Why did Dungeon Master's Castle (6086) change its name?
- general/?n=9419 What period in European history does Castle represent?
...and so on.
Note that the threads you look at may point you to messages in other
newsgroups; as long as the answer is Castle-specific, it qualifies.
So are you up to the challenge? I'll give away minifigs they (or the
answers) run out.
