Hi all,
As someone who has never participated in a large group build I’m very curious as
to how this works.. Could you answer a few questions?
I see the buildings are arranged on large gridded paper, and each team has
several reference photographs.
How much “freedom” was each builder allowed? Did the Master builders have
everything planned and laid out, or was there a lot of improvisation? For
example, the door and window designs, the curved walls.. I’m assuming since
there were so many buildings that had to have similar looks everything was
completely standardized.. Were there instructions of some kind provided, or were
you expected to build to the photographs?
Can you give me a better idea of how the teams were built? For example, were
there team captains/Master builders, etc. How were various jobs assigned? How
many people were on each building? For example, if I wanted to create one
structure of about the size of one of your mill buildings, how many people would
be required? Can you have too many?
Sorry if these are obvious questions, but I have no experience with team/LUG
building (or anything approaching this scale). I think it would be fun to assign
a large project like this to my class (of mostly non-AFOL) but it seems like a
daunting task..
Thanks
Darrell
