Build Something Competition 2025: Vessel/Conveyance

[Burgundavia]

I just sent in my photo, though I'm not sure I'm in time or not 

You got it in with 57 minutes to spare. Could've done at least two more things painted 

That makes it 9 by my count. I'm racing for a deadline myself - our big gaming convention, Trumpeter Salute (not that Salute), is this weekend, so likely won't get the pictures up until later in the week.

I'm racing for a deadline myself - our big gaming convention, Trumpeter Salute (not that Salute), is this weekend, so likely won't get the pictures up until later in the week.

I got all my stuff ready for Trumpeter's with 4 days to spare - it's a bit smuggy over here.

[Burgundavia]

And we have 10 - I might get them up today, but more likely Monday.

[Burgundavia]

Sorry all for the delay - was hoping to get the up tonight but it'll have to be tomorrow as I deal with some health issues (nothing major, just the same stuff I've been dealing with for months).

[Lost Egg]

No worries Burgundavia, got to look after yourself mate.

[Ragnar]

Agreed. 

No stress on the timeline, health is more important

[Mick_in_Switzerland]

Get well soon.

[McMordain]

Health should come first, we can wait.

[Spinal Tap]

Yeah, look after yourself.

And round 1 is live! I sorted the entries based on the second from the timestamp when the email was received, with the second the email was send as the tiebreaker. I had to use this tiebreaker twice, as two entries came in second 26 and 2 in second 28.

Assuming we end up with no ties, we'll have our usual 3 rounds:
Round 1 - two advance from each group
Round 2
Group 1 - 1st from Group 1 vs 2nd from Group 2
Group 2 - 1st from Group 2 vs 2nd from Group 1
Final Round - 1st from each

Do people want to do a bronze medal as well? If there's interest, I will do a bronze medal fight before the final.

If we get ties in any stage, we'll do a 2-day quick vote to break ties. If that ends in a tie, both tie breakers will need to email me a number - closest to my randomly chosen number from 1 to 100 will win.

That sounds interesting - why not!?!

[has.been]

yes to the bronze option.
And, WOT! no penalty shoot outs? 

[Mick_in_Switzerland]

Yes to bronze. I like the idea that more people get a prize.

[mikedemana]

I agree -- a bronze medal would be appropriate considering the...er, Olympian efforts of these scratch-builders!

[McMordain]

Bronze round sound fun.

Also the quality is amazing, it will be very hard to choose. Every entry has something I really like...
