■▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬■ -----------------------------------Pinewood Builders Build-Off ©----------------------------------- ■▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬■
........Welcome to the very contest that started this forum! This Build Off © was petitioned to info@roblox.com and has been approved by the community manager, Reesemcblox. I an only assume that she added "ROBLOX Contests" in the ROBLOX Forum as a result.
........We, the Creative Team of Pinewood Builders, have decided to hold a group build-off. We want out members to build Rube Goldberg machines, since the theme of our group is about engineering and physics. I, TerminatorUNLRASHED am responsible for this build off.
----Standards---- ........We *will* abide by all current Roblox rules and regulations. At *no* time shall *anyone* be rewarded Robux, Roblox Tickets (AKA Tix), real money, or any other electronic or physical item for their machine. Machines must abide by Roblox policies to be eligible for the build-off.
■▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬■ -----------------------------------------------GUIDELINES----------------------------------------------- ■▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬■
★----What is a Rube Goldberg machine?----★ A Rube Goldberg Machine is a deliberately over-engineered or overdone machine that performs a very simple task in a very complex fashion, usually including a chain reaction. A familiar example of a Rube Goldberg machine is a game called Mouse Trap. Example: youtube.com/watch?v=yTC6311WrNQ
★----Machine Rules----★ - Machines must abide by Roblox policies to be eligible for the build-off. - Machines mustn't be built of free models, but may have free model scripts. - Machines may not have virus scripts in them. - Machines may not have "admin command" scripts in them. - Machines mustn't be intentionally laggy. (This includes unnecessary fire, smoke, etc.) - Machines must do something
★----What we will be looking for----★ -The most elaborate chain reaction. -The machine with the most potential energy. (Having no idea how this is going to be measured.) -The machine with the most flying objects. (Remember the lag rule)
★----Submission--★ In order to be entered into the build-off, machines in must either be:
1. Recorded in action, uploaded to YouTube and messaged (using Roblox) to our judges with a YouTube link. 2. Published as a model and *given* to TerminatorUNLRASHED. Once given to TerminatorUNLRASHED, the machines will be presented to our judges by the creator of that machine. You may ask TerminatorUNLRASHED to delete it from his inventory any time.
★----Rewards----★ Those who build machines that catch our judges' attention will be rewarded a promotion in the group; meaning that we will advance their rank in the group. Also, with the consent of the creator, their machine may or may not be placed in our headquarters or research facility for viewing.
★----Dates to remember----★ 6/25/13 - Contest starts 18 days go by....
7/12/13 - Submissions are DUE (Don't wait for the deadline! Plan to finish 2 days prior!) 7/13/13 - Machines will be showcased and judged. (YouTube links will be provided in a forum post) 7/14/13 - Machines will still be on display. Judging decisions will be made. 7/16/13 - Results will come out; contest ends.

| @Split, I found a seat so you dont need to script, but your robot doesn't move its legs. But it still moves! |

| It is not scripting, it is simple physics. |

I think at one point they took it down.
But this is also important:
PLEASE MAKE YOUR MACHINES AS SMALL AS POSSIBLE. |
