Heads up, Ice Planet Contestants (and esp. Commander Curt) -- here's the
entry list so far.  Please note if any of your critical information is
missing.  If you are not on this list, your precious MOC(s) has/have been
overlooked by The Ice Worm!  Please post or repost your MOC(s) ASAP, or wait
until the last minute and be sneaky about it! There is a distinct preference
that each MOC's element count be provided (an estimate is fine).  Please
also note the absence of a thumbnail image for use on the official site, or
the use -- or suggested use -- of one you do not like.  The thumbnails
submitted should be 129x80 or smaller, or we will shrink them ourselves
(using the incredible Ice Worm shrinkage methods -- c'mon, I didn't mean
"THAT"!).

The official Ice Planet 2002 Contest site is at:
http://www.ozbricks.net/iceplanet/Iceplanet2002/index.htm
and is graciously maintained by Curt Tigges (contact him at:
CommanderCurt@msn.com).

Everyone's doing great stuff and should be proud of their designs, large and
small.  Everyone is doing a truly exceptional job at rising to the challenge
of creating MOCs for what is perceived by some to be a tiresome and
strangely colored subtheme of Space.  But it just ain't so, is it?!  Where
others see problems, the bold see opportunities.  With only 8 competitors so
far, I hope we are to have some last minute entries.  But...

...the deadline for the contest remains: Deadline: June 23, 2002 00:00 GMT
-- less than 11 days and counting down!!!

Commander Curt, you know what to do.

Doubtless, there is something I have forgotten to mention. But what do I
care?!  I'm not competing -- it's not my problem!!!

Tomorrow, the countdown begins.

P.S. Fear me!
