Build Something Competition 2024: Topic Poll
« on: January 03, 2024, 08:44:27 PM »
It's that time again! Time to see what we are going to build for the 2024 Build Something Competition. Vanvlak and I are talking about timing - not sure entirely when we'll start, but this poll will run for two weeks. After that, likely 2-3 before we start (maybe as early as Feb 1st).

I should know better than to start a project this time of year.  I always have to stop half way through for the BSC.   lol

No matter which option, it's going to have to be really shoehorned into existing projects I suspect; none really fits within them.

But that won't stop me. let's just hope I won't have to bow out this year... ::)

At the moment I have absolutely no idea what to do for any of the themes. ??? ??? ???

But I'm sure I'll think of something. :D

One last day of voting! Will there be a surprise change or are we going to the workplace in 2024?

Workplace it is! With the lower participation in the poll from last year to this, I'm going to propose we hold off starting until at least mid Feb. Let people recover a bit more.

Excellent.

That will give us some time to ponder on the applicability of the subject within existing projects too...  :)

Well I voted for speed, but workplace probably works better for what I had in mind.
But I have some other ideas as well now so I have no problem with the postponed start. It gives me time to decide what I won't be able to finish in time what I want to do  lol

Just a note on potential rules for this round: Can we amend using limited 3D printing parts to add acceptability for parts created by the entrant specifically for the contest? (Like, lets get into the 21st century!)  Regards, Rob.
