That is cool i don’t mind who judges us its better it stays anonymous.

Yea i was wondering if there is a people choice award

Maybe in 2 weeks when the winner is chosen?

Something like that. I think the posts a message in this topic with a link to the tpoic where we express our personal choice, so you should get a notification if you are subscribed to this topic. I think??

Right. There will be an official People’s Choice poll, but only after the judges are ready.

We don’t want to affect their scoring, don’t we?

Well, dangit. I really wanted to enter something in this year’s contest- had plenty of ideas,but never got started on anything. Just too many other obligations in life and very little spare time at the moment.

I am continually amazed at the entries…there are some very talented and imaginative people on this forum. It is pretty obvious that my plain Jane ideas would not fare to well against some of these entries haha! Though the fun for me would be in the building something useful, not the winning.

I feel the same way Mr Magoo, there are some real class acts in this years challenge! I fear whatever I hacked together would pale by comparison even if useful.

…which makes it even harder for the judges…

So, unfortunately, judging is not ready yet. Please wait patiently.

Thank you for the note. Much appreciated. With the Christmas season, this is a busy time of year for some and family occasions carry more importance than flashlights and this sort of fun.

Merry Christmas to all the judges. Enjoy the season, the hospitality, etc.

That’s why you should send them registered post with signature required.

Well, hopefully the judges have this just about wrapped up by now… :innocent:

MtnDon · 2019-01-21T18:59:28.000Z

Yes, hopefully, soon.

pinkpanda3310 · 2019-01-30T02:23:54.000Z

Since the contestants are given a time frame to work within, can we have the judges do the same?

gchart · 2019-01-30T02:48:06.000Z

Hopefully everything is ok with the, he hasn’t been around in a few weeks. Is anyone in contact with him outside of BLF?

I’ll send him an email. I suspect he’s doing well, just busy.

I agree.
The extended waiting for an unknown duration without any information kinda spoils the fun for us builders.

Thanks :+1:
