(...) Are you sure the Pure/Impure headings above the scores are the right way round? According to them, I score 10/10 :D ROSCO (17 years ago, 26-Sep-07, to lugnet.general, FTX)
 
  Re: Box scans
 
(...) I would love to see the backs of Classic Space/Futuron sets such as 497, 6990, etc.!!! The alternate models from old school sets like those would be a great inspiration for those of us who still love CS but do not have access to the boxes from (...)

(...) I came in at 8.90 but I could have sworn that I really didn't care that much about mods and other non-traditional things... (URL) (17 years ago, 26-Sep-07, to lugnet.general, FTX)
 
  Re: Lego Purity
 
(...) 0.67/10!? Not shure, but whatever. I really don't mind. (URL) My question is, since most who rated clones 1/5, also rated modding clones 1/5, so if you consider clones a blasphemy, wouldn't modding clones then be a moot point? (17 years ago, 26-Sep-07, to lugnet.general, FTX)

  Re: Box scans
 
(...) <sniper-snip> (...) Of course it is useful, especially the rear side of the box is very important (for the alternate models). You can send it to some database/instructions server, for example Peeron. -Martin (17 years ago, 26-Sep-07, to lugnet.general)
 
  Re: Lego Purity
 
(...) A fun test! I thnk I came out at about 7.7. It's weird, because we're all so complex, so how do you make a simple test and gett accuate answers? For instance, under the topic of custom weapons, I personally don't use them (while I do own (...) (17 years ago, 26-Sep-07, to lugnet.general, FTX)
 
  Re: My UCS Millenium Falcon Has Arrived!!!
 
(...) Mine arrived on Monday along with Hogwart's Castle, which Tyson's received after I placed my on-line order. I haven't even opened the box for the Millenium Falcon and am thinking of returning it unopened. Building the Republic Cruiser just (...) (17 years ago, 26-Sep-07, to lugnet.general)
 
  Box scans
 
I recently got a scanner and decided to start scanning in some of my Lego box panels.

  Re: Lego Purity
 
(...) Ahh, ok, I see what you mean. Yeah, this part is difficult. In my scoring mechanism, I was trying to predict what the most likely deviation from the mean would be, but I didn't have any data at the time. Under the covers, the way it scores you (...)

  Re: Lego Purity
 
(...) yea, I understand that, but I cannot be a pure non-purist which is what a 0.00 score would indicate if I thought 3 were blasphemous. I mean, by picking three as blasphemous, I have contaiminated the purity of my "non-purity" and therefore I (...) (17 years ago, 26-Sep-07, to lugnet.general, FTX)

  Re: Lego Purity
 
I'm shocked I scored as high as a 5.5! An overall 58% for fan-created customs. Pretty cool! Although I think I recognize several names in this thread having ordered from BrickForge - maybe I better start disclosing! :) Kyle Peterson BrickForge (17 years ago, 26-Sep-07, to lugnet.general, FTX)
 
  Re: Lego Purity
 
(...) Heh, yep, that's precisely how it's supposed to work :) If you're ok with things like gluing, using stickers, etc, then you're not as big of a purist! If you count everything as blasphemous, though, then you're a pretty definite purist! DaveE (17 years ago, 26-Sep-07, to lugnet.general, FTX)
 
  Re: Lego Purity
 
(...) Congrats Dave, it's really an interesting idea. I didn't consider myself as pure and rated myself at 3/10. After answering I get : "According to our data, on a purity scale from 0-10, you rate 0.17/10" I don't mind if it's a good result or (...) (17 years ago, 26-Sep-07, to lugnet.general, FTX)

  Re: Lego Purity
 
(...) Got to be something wrong with the scoring as I put three down as blasphemy and rest fine with me, but still got a 0.00--impossible in any kind of scoring scheme I can think of. Especially since the scores were defined with two significant (...) (17 years ago, 26-Sep-07, to lugnet.general, FTX)
