I'm pulling this back to .space... (...) You're both kind of commenting on the same thing, I think. The meeting will be about as formal as we spacers usually get... which is laissez-faire.

Well I guess I could say that I would pay for the entry (just incase I can still get there), I'd like the badge & all, & the real thought wasn't towards winning a prize, but I'd take one;). I'll register within next week... Josh (21 years ago, 13-Jun-03, to lugnet.events.brickfest)

Actually the precedent in my view, (since this is not the first year there have been contests) is what was done in previous years, and I am already checking into this to try to determine what that precedent actually is (or are, if it varied).

(...) Thats a good question, but I think currently we're only talking about the Train contest, it will be up to the other organizers to set up rules for contest in other themes.....I'm guessing that a "Trilobite" is not a train of any type. jt (21 years ago, 12-Jun-03, to lugnet.events.brickfest)

(...) These are points well-taken, so how would one note that a MOC was submitted by proxy? I will be building a MOC by a person who cannot attend (Nathan Well's Trilobite) to be placed in a diorama. Joe Meno (21 years ago, 12-Jun-03, to lugnet.events.brickfest)

There are other contest from time to time on the (...) (21 years ago, 12-Jun-03, to lugnet.events.brickfest)

(...) I think you can argue both ways. IIRC it may have been allowed in the past, so there may be precedent for it, I believe. On the other hand, the prizes can be argued to be a benefit of paid attendance. If you already paid and are not seeking a (...) (21 years ago, 12-Jun-03, to lugnet.events.brickfest)

Lar, is it possible if I have an MOC entered by someone else? I was hoping to make it but the Marines have made that impossible, So I was going to have someone going enter it for me. Josh (21 years ago, 12-Jun-03, to lugnet.events.brickfest, FTX)

I think a more formalized discussion would be helpful, but if the Moonbase resulted from what you described Chris, then I say go for a laissez-faire arrangement.

It all depends on how many prizes we have when we are ready to finalize. Were I dividing engines (...) (21 years ago, 12-Jun-03, to lugnet.events.brickfest, FTX)
