         Re: Announcing: Space Wheels Contest —Avery Christy
     (...) My question is, do those multiple entries all have to be at the same time? I only ask this in genuine honesty 'cause I was looking at a Mars landscape thinking of the perfect vehicle to use on it, I got an idea and built it and pictured it and (...)

     (...) Can someone enter a Space MOC with more than one wheel in the contest? Is there an upper limit? Can the wheels be used as engines? How about wings? How about wings that ARE engines? Or would those all count as other rules? (20 years ago, 1-Oct-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

      (...) You can only use wings that are engines if they are also weapons, and also improve aerodynamics by slicing through the space air, keeping the ship afloat. -Tim (20 years ago, 1-Oct-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)
    
         Re: Announcing: Space Wheels Contest —Allister McLaren
     (...) The only rule is that your model must use at least one wheel to get around. I'm sorry if that's not complicated enough for you. One hint though - if a wheel shaped part is used as an engine, then it's not a wheel. My only other suggestion is (...) (20 years ago, 1-Oct-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)
    
         Re: Announcing: Space Wheels Contest —Larry Pieniazek
     (...) I hear an echo in here. what does "get around" mean? If a craft floats on the ocean, or in the ether of space, and has some sort of propulsive mechanism, it's "getting around". Now, if that mechanism is modeled by something that happens to be (...) (20 years ago, 1-Oct-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

The part of Keith 'Smack' Goldman to now be played by Larry 'Smackity' Pieniazek.... ;) All tossing aside, the only stipulation is that at least one wheel be in contact with the ground for the purpose and execution of conveyance through (...)
