(...) I think they try to sort them out as they best can before you get called to the building contest. /Tobbe (22 years ago, 9-Oct-03, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.general)

  NWBC 2003 Post Mortem
 
This year we had an outstanding event. I'm happy to report this post mortem message should be substantially shorter than last years due to fewer issues. The space was awesome. One large room that perfectly accomidated what we aimed to accomplish. I (...) (22 years ago, 8-Oct-03, to lugnet.events.nwbrickcon, lugnet.general)  
 
  Re: Are you going to try out?
 
(...) I like the idea. I like the idea for two reasons: 1) because I like the fact that LEGO is reaching out to the general public and that almost anyone(1) has a shot at this. It's more or less a level playing field. 2) because it opens up at least (...) (22 years ago, 8-Oct-03, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.general)

  Re: Are you going to try out?
 
(...) Great idea! Too bad it means moving to the USA :( Otherwise it would have been PERFECT for me, as I'm atm exploring other career paths. (22 years ago, 8-Oct-03, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.general)
 
  Re: Are you going to try out?
 
(...) It's a job I'd enjoy but, like others who've said the same about themselves, I don't think I'm up in the "Master Builder" class. Granted, I have the advantage of living in San Diego and I'm thinking in an "Aw, why not give it a try?" mode. Tom (...) (22 years ago, 8-Oct-03, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.general, FTX)
 
  Re: Are you going to try out?
 
(...) Jake, This has been a dream of mine since the first time I read about Master builders in one of the earliest club magazines. I am not only trying out for the fun of saying I did so, or the challenge of building something amazing in 45 minutes, (...) (22 years ago, 8-Oct-03, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.general)
 
  Re: Are you going to try out?
 
(...) I think the crew at Carlsbad don't get this as much as the people in Enfield. I've spent a morning at the model shop in Enfield, at the time they were building several hundred (several thousand?) copies of 'toucan sam' for a breakfast cereal (...)

  Re: Are you going to try out?
 
(...) was thinking of trying out anyway just for the experience. My concern is that it might take a spot from someone who actually COULD take the job and that might not be very fair. I dunno. Jake? I think it's a neat idea even if it's a publicity (...) (22 years ago, 8-Oct-03, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.general)
 
  Re: Are you going to try out?
 
(...) I can say with some certainty that I won't be trying out. For me, there's no way I would live in California! (sorry californians...I don't mean it as an insult, it's just a personal thing with me). I think it would be interesting to know what (...) (22 years ago, 8-Oct-03, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.general)
 
  Re: Are you going to try out?
 
(...) Can you promise a living wage to the person that wins it? Not that I think I could ever win it - I build well, but I don't build *quickly*. Probably 99% of the people here on LUGNET think it would be a dream job, but unfortunately reality (...) (22 years ago, 8-Oct-03, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.general)
 
  Re: Are you going to try out?
 
(...) I'm going to try out...it sounds like a different and fun challenge! The idea is a good one, too...it'll be neat to see who shows up and even neater to see (or if I'm lucky, be part of)the build off. Joe Meno .space paparazzi! (22 years ago, 8-Oct-03, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.general)
 
  Re: Are you going to try out?
 
(...) Do this in Denmark and I'll be there! I think it is a great idea to find talented builders this way. Martin (22 years ago, 8-Oct-03, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.general)

And working, doing almost anything, for the LEGO company would (...) (22 years ago, 8-Oct-03, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.general)
 
  Re: Are you going to try out?
 
Really cool idea. But since I just moved OUT of CA due to the high living cost (the house we'll be building in FL will cost 1/3 of that in the SF Bay area, but will probably double in value in the next 10-20 years due to the local building boom (...)

(...) too much to make it my day job. I know what happened to my computer hobby when I got into working with them ;) Besides, I'm not Masterbuilder material. Not yet :) OTOH it would be a cool thing to do, despite the above. (...) It's pretty cool. (...) (22 years ago, 8-Oct-03, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.general)
 
  Are you going to try out?
 
So what do you think? Are you going to try out for the spot in the master builder search ((URL) you are, let me know! What do you think about the idea overall? Jake --- Jake McKee Community Liason LEGO Community Development (22 years ago, 8-Oct-03, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.general) !
