I'll enter BurninRubber (and/or SeizeSure).
They use tires, wood and scaffolding.
Ok I'm thinking of altering the rules abit. If you use an object that has a different size I will allow that as the same object. So if you use metal slicks, you can use all three sizes if needed and still use 2 other types of objects.
What do you guys think?
Nah, I dont like this competition at all.... sucks, not interested....lol jk crow, you know ill be submitting something!
Dont know what yet, but its a great idea. Cant wait to see what I can do... I just dont kno...
and as to the rule changes.... thats a good idea, but then again, if I use a ramp... can I use all 4 ramps? Things like that, you'd have to be pretty specific.
Much of the fun with something like this lies in having to creatively deal with the harshness of the restrictions. Considering that you're already allowing unlimited effects/tools I think the raw, 3-piece limit works just fine. In addition, if you do not use things like planks & metal sticks you're necessarily penalized as there are many pieces that don't scale to fit, but still take up a full piece slot. In the interest of keeping an objective, level playing field the rules should be kept in their original form.
However it ends up I still have another one of these tracks to turn out, but it will be under the original parameters regardless of any changes.
I agree grimm. Only 3 objects period. If you use the three sizes of one object, then those are all of the objects you are allowed.Originally Posted by grimmMuch of the fun with something like this lies in having to creatively deal with the harshness of the restrictions.

Since there are a few people interested in the challenge now, I am contacting people willing to judge the tracks.
I'm offering 1600 Microsoft points for Americans and 3 month gold membership for everyone else.
I'm going to make an example track just for fun and will update the thread when I have judges and a deadline for the tourny.
Get to buildin people!!!!
