And you won Week 3! Congratulations, Mark!

Why am I so happy about that? Even though my train station came in a fairly distant second, I don’t mind losing to such a kickin’ design like this. But the important thing was that LEGO once again made sure that there wasn’t ballot-box stuffing going on. The original Week 3 Senior level winner was a fairly crummy little street scene that gathered about 200 votes in the last two days. There was no way that anybody looking at the Town Hall would choose that simplistic entry, which got an unrealistic 250+ votes. So my faith in the integrity of the contest has been renewed, and I may actually enter more designs.

It was just my bad luck to go up against your model. As time goes on, and the designs continue to improve, my chances decrease so I need to hurry up. I’ve got two killer sets in mind, one easy and one fiendishly difficult.

Congratulations on your victory!
