Insomniac Saturday Night Build Off!

[kesteve]

May I suggest increasing the time limit/size limit as well? Perhaps at least twice the size and time? I enjoying building and making cool creations, but the time limit and size limit doesn't seem to give me the feeling of satisfaction as when I've built a good build. I may not have realized that this may be more of a "reflex" buildoff than a "planning" buildoff. I like the mini buildoff idea, but feel it may be too mini.

[Krawkyz]

For tomorrow's buildoff, according to the strawpoll, we shall now follow these rules:

Every week, we shall alternate solo to team.

You may pick you ground block before the buildoff starts.

There will be a twist every 10 builds.
Every buildoff that ends with the digit 0 will have a twist. That means this week's will have a twist.

Teams will be randomized.

To be determined: will we start with team or solo this week? We will find out Saturday.
Good luck out there! Hopefully you enjoy the revamped buildoff setup.

You guys should vote for the big ass cake by me and Kraw! Its one of my fave builds that I've done and I personally think it came out the best and is the least rushed and I like it the most. Go take a look!

It's great to see a good, consistent, high standard of builds in all entries. And no boxes. Some nice stuff for 1 hour's work.

Was there no set theme for the build-off?

[Juwayyid]

What Krawkyz has set up is a "Vote for the best!" out of the first 10 buildoff winners.  Each week is a different theme, and because we have no wcompleted our 11th build off we thought, or rather Krawkyz thought and we all agreed, it would be fun to vote for the best out of all the winners.


Its true though.  This buildoff has been consistent and turns out some fantastic stuff for an hours time each week.  And there were even times when players who don't get along get stuck building together and they actually get work done with a few laughs along the way, which is great to see.

[Krawkyz]

Don't forget, Saturday is our build-off. Join us!

[Krawkyz]

Build-off has been postponed until server technical issues have been resolved.

[Krawkyz]

Unless I hear otherwise, the Build-off will commence at

8:00 PM EST on Tuesday, July 8th.

Since the build off in on a different day than we usually do is it okay to do singles tomorrow and teams on Saturday? Thus making the next Saturday another team week.

[Krawkyz]

Depends on how many people show up

[sifitis]

wont be there, got plans irl. hf.

[Juwayyid]

Depending on the number we do get to come by, it may be best to just hold off until Saturday again.

[Krawkyz]

It is unlikely we will be able to do it tonight due to technical issues again. If servers are up at 8:00 EST, then we will do the build-off (with at least 5 people). If not, it will be postponed again.
