One comment I will make-- I don't think they would want the general "rating" per se. I think there's potential for kids to feel bad if their submitted models are rated poorly. Doesn't mean you couldn't circumvent that risk, but you'd have to base (...) (17 years ago, 12-Mar-08, to lugnet.dear-lego, FTX)
