    Re: "MOC" Blacksmith Shop on lego.com —Allan Bedford
   (...) Richie... For whatever reason, you seem to latch onto one or more specific notions and ignore other parts of my argument in order to make your point. The above is a perfect example. I have already stated that I was NOT comparing piece counts. (...) (23 years ago, 18-Dec-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
   
        Re: "MOC" Blacksmith Shop on lego.com —Richie Dulin
   (...) I have “latched onto…specific notions” because I believe your arguments are flawed or contradictory. (...) But on what basis do you think it is a valid comparison… that they are two LEGO sets which are police stations? Why not throw the Duplo (...) (23 years ago, 18-Dec-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
   
        Re: "MOC" Blacksmith Shop on lego.com —Allan Bedford
     We now return you to your regularly scheduled debate, already in progress. (...) Richie... I think we're getting somewhere. :) I'm sorry to come off sounding so verbally heavy-handed in my last post, but I really felt like our 'debate' was disolving (...)

      (...) [snip] (...) I think we are/were a long way from that point. At least I hope we are/were ;-) (...) [Same here. I've left in the relevent bits I'm commenting on] (...) I'd invite you to have a look at the parts selection in Slave I. There are (...) (23 years ago, 19-Dec-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
    
         Re: "MOC" Blacksmith Shop on lego.com —Benjamin Medinets
     allow me to add some colour (oops...that's canadian...) :) commentary. <snip> (...) but it does raise a contentious issue of reality of the set (design) vs. ease of construction plus, the older sets could be made into other creations, if the the (...)

        Re: "MOC" Blacksmith Shop on lego.com —Thomas Stangl
   (...) Well, hate to burst your bubble, but 50-60K bricks in 3 years DOESN'T put you in the "major customer" bracket. That's a drop in the ocean. Some people around here have bought that many bricks (or more) in ONE DAY. And even that won't begin to (...) (23 years ago, 28-Dec-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
   
        Re: Attributing quotes (was:"MOC" Blacksmith Shop on lego.com) —Ross Crawford
     Tom, You should be a bit more careful with your quoting - most of this was actually Allan's comments. Also, it makes things easier if you reply to the actual post you're quoting most from. Regards ROSCO (...) (23 years ago, 28-Dec-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
   
        Re: "MOC" Blacksmith Shop on lego.com —Allan Bedford
   (...) Tom, you're not bursting any bubble, you're simply confirming what I said. I am not, and do not consider myself to be a "major customer" by any definition. I have what I think is a fairly small collection for an adult. 50,000 bricks, spread (...) (23 years ago, 28-Dec-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
   
        Re: "MOC" Blacksmith Shop on lego.com —Larry Pieniazek
     (...) No, it's actually quite clear. As in the example above. ("I" am saying that YOU wrote the stuff that is marked with ">" symbols and YOU are saying that TOM wrote the stuff that is marked with ">>" symbols.) PLEASE DO NOT manually "correct" (...)

        Re: "MOC" Blacksmith Shop on lego.com —Erik Olson
   (...) You're right, though it could be 250-300 pounds. I don't think I have a ton of bricks, either. Now half a million is sure to be a ton of bricks. (23 years ago, 30-Dec-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
   
        Re: "MOC" Blacksmith Shop on lego.com —Thomas Stangl
   My wife keeps joking about our 2nd floor apt not being able to handle the weight of the Lego - good thing that ton or more is spread out all over the place ;-) (...) -- Tom Stangl ***(URL) Visual FAQ home ***(URL) Bay Area DSMs (23 years ago, 30-Dec-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
