Author Topic: Wacky Backpack Building Competetion! WIN PRIZES!  (Read 14391 times)

Well, I guess I could add something more to it, but my camera died so it might be a while.

Can we upgrade our entries? If we do, will it count?

This is General Nick posting again. Hai.
Dear Tcxxx572,

Although I respect your power as the judge of the contest, you did not provide the same information at the time of my entry. Due to this, it is impossible that I would've known that you only wanted 6 pictures and limited 3 entries (Even though I only had one). Also, if you look at the final picture, you will see my signature along with the backpack in the background. If you need a clearer picture of the backpack with my signature, the link is at the bottom.

Therefore, my entry should still stand within the competition, and be given a more fair rating.

The only rules that existed at the time of building the backpack (Thursday August 28, 2009, 11:50 PM), were these (And I quote):

" You can only have lego parts and rubber bands on it, you may not have anything else. All packs must allow the minifigures to stad freely (or atleast on  a plate) with no support. You must post a decent picture to be entered into the contest. Tcxxx572 may judge as he sees fit."

Although it says you have the right to judge as you see fit, it would make more sense to let me (And everyone else) know of the new rules BEFORE they enter.


So, in my point of view, you are clearly at fault, even given that you are the judge of the contest, you still did not put those rules on the thread topic.
Therefore, in this case, its your fault for my entry being given such an unholy score.
I demand that you rejudge with the original contest rules, and no such other rules only, as you have with the other contestants.

Here's further proof that this IS indeed mine:

Picture 2, showing the original proof signature.

Proof that I'm posting this.

It is not my job to look at thousands of pictures. You should have the common sense to relise that I don't look at every single picture when you post hundreds. And it clearly says that I may judge as I see fit. That means I can make up rules and stuff. I don't care if you think it is unfair, you are not being forced to enter this contest, and I didn't ever say that this would be fair. I don't have to give you anything, yet I choose to because I want to see what the blockland community can really build. I do follow the rules to, and I'm judging as I see fit. Please do us all a favor, and read.

Can we upgrade our entries? If we do, will it count?
You can if you want. I will post the updated rules on the first post soon, so people understand this better. If you have any questions, please ask them.

Edit: Updated the rules, and NEW PRIZE OPTION FOR FIRST PLACE!!!!!

General posting again >_>
I am reading, I've been reading. My point is fair, but since it's your contest, whatever.

I'll re-enter the contest, unless your going to make another rule saying that's prohibited?

General, your banned from the contest. I'm tired of you being an idiot. Mr cookie can stay though.

Me again, General.
So I'm banned from the contest for just pointing out flaws that would actually HELP people win?

You realize that fair contests = better reputation for judge = more popularity, right? Or your small brain couldn't comprehend that?

I never said you HAD to look at every damn picture.
Your sounding like some power hungry little spoiled kid by being the judge of this contest.
This is why we have a Gallery Section.
You can't follow your own rules as your the judge, and although your judging as you see fit you still should allow some fairness into the competition otherwise people are going to think your contests are impossible to win at, because you change the rules every second.[/U]

I even dropped the whole thing in my previous post, so if anything, you are keeping it up.

Man, I LOVE the way you talk, all those underlines and bolds, holy stuff, I'm really peeing my pants in awe. Anyway, I've color coded it so I can address all the failure in this post.

I'm not doing this to get people to like me. I am doing this because I want people to start building. I don't HAVE to do this, but I am sure that people WANT me too.

I'm not spoiled, and I am not a little kid. I am in Pre AP Math and GT English, and I am learning to speak Mandarin Chinease. I work hard for everything I get.

I never said I would follow any of my own rules, and I'm not in the contest anyway, I don't need to follow them

No body thinks this is impossible besides you.




Anyway, I have decided that I will come up with a way to determine a new prize for first place, so I will let you decide.

Post weather you want either 20 dollars in quarters or a tub of legos (the 25 dollar bin with those minifigures in it) as your prize.


I'm winning :3 I'll post a upgrade if I start to lose.

dread wants a tub of legos :o
