Can you make your own motor? I once made a rubber band racer as a kid so it's quite possible to make a self-propelled LEGO model without a motor piece.

Yeah! If it's all official LEGO it's game.

Truthfully I probably won't. But it's something for others to consider if they don't own motors.

I don't have any electric motors, but i'll try to enter the Non-Electric category.

You might want to make it clear whether or not entries need to be creations built after the start of the contest. Also, are we allowed to use other electric parts like mindstorms and sensors?

^ Thanks, I forgot about that.
I would say that using mindstorms and sensors would be acceptable unless one of the other judges sees a problem with it.

I don't see why they wouldn't be -- why exclude non-motor electric parts when all "regular" pieces are allowed?

I just thought of this, in the Non-Electric category can we add extra functions such as turrets rotated by gears, or levers to open hatches?

Interesting.
I don't build many models that have an actual function besides looking cool, this will be an interesting diversion from the norm.

Alternative Reality WWII would work, right? According to Wikipedia science fiction could be :
'A setting in the future, in alternative timelines, or in an historical past that contradicts known facts of history or the archaeological record'
If so, I'm in.

^ Yes...that would be acceptable. Also, Steampunk would fall under sci-fi.

hi there, apologies in advance if my question is an obvious one, however having never created a "working" MOC before this is new to me...
the rules state no more than 4 motors; does that include receivers and remote controls?
thanks

No, four motors means four motors, both for electric and non-electric categories. There is no limit on other electric parts.

Do i should make my Lego bridge launcher more "Sci-fied"?

That is something you yourself will have to decide.
This is after all a contest.

Another thing to clarify, the videos posted should be of the functions only. We judges do not need a minute-and-a-half long video if the only function is a door.

All right everyone, just ten more days to go.
I hope to see a lot more entries in the coming week, so start (or continue) building!

And that concludes this contest!
I won't sugar coat it. We expected a lot more entries from everyone. However, there were some great entries among the few that we do have.
Please be patient we will reveal the winners and the mystery trophies as soon as the judges have had time to evaluate the entries.
Thanks to everyone who participated!
