Last date to announce participation (by starting a thread is Saturday January 25th, 2020.
I have not included the nature of your builds above as you may at any point during the build phase up till Sun 9th March 2020, change it.


Good luck all! I am glad so many are participating so far.  We already see quite a wide range of spectacular heaps of rubbish developing..

  I’ve had to order extra rubbish in 

[LordOdo]

Could you add me? 

[Hammers]

Could you add me? 

You bet,you, you by golly goddammer!

[Hammers]

Are y'all doing OK?

I see  that I have made a mistake in the rules; it says Sun 9th March 2020. I will interpret this to your favour meaning that you have until Monday March 9.

[LordOdo]

I did interpred it like that, and it will be tough to meet that deadline, but not too impossible

Good on ya!

[Codsticker]

Ah, I thought it was Sunday so that is like a little bonus.

[gamer Mac]

Seems to be a few drop outs how many left?

[Captain Blood]

There look to be 30 still in on the above list - none too shabby. Although I wouldn’t necessarily expect everyone to deliver a project as planned. Real life may have intervened.
I don’t know how the competition will work this time. As a spectator I was rather hoping for a series of pairings and a knockout basis, to gradually watch the leading contenders emerge through the rounds. I find the ‘pick your favourite from a group of 5 or 6 entries’ a bit too quick and brutal. It often seems to lead to some very good entries getting unceremoniously knocked out straightaway.
But not sure what exactly Peder’s got planned for the voting this time.
We shall see

The voting has been done in a few different ways over the years so there is no set precedence how it should be done. I have even chosen to be a bit vague about it in the rules as I think it is a bit dependent on the number of entries. Let me mull it over during the day. Should anyone adamantly object to what the Captain suggests, let it be known.

[Sinewgrab]

I only object when I don't win. 

[Codsticker]

I like the 1v1 format like the LPL; it draws the competition out a bit longer.

[Hammers]

I received the last entries last night and I have sorted through the email, organised the file tags and stricken the non-entrants from the Builders List. Please check that I have not missed anyone of you.


Those sixteen (including myself) of you who have made it across the goal line: wow...! I am seriously impressed. This may be the best season of BSC I've seen in terms of over all ambition and quality.

My goal is to have the polls up by Thursday (sorry about the delay, domestic things going on).  I am thinking that we should randomly match entries in knockout rounds of twos, which means the first round have 8 pairs the second 4, the third 2 and the final 1 pair which will compete for the coveted Potato Cup. (I  think that's the level off complication my age addled brain  can handle).

[LordOdo]

Sounds good!
