To be honest, personally I think that having a minimum size for the unrestricted entries in the future would be a good idea regardless of whether or not the spirit of the categories are abused. It simply makes it more organized, and easier to understand, in addition to prevent cheesing your way to more points. Also, it helps separate the unrestricted and restricted entries much more clearly.

Hence smiley ;). While maybe not the best spot for discussion if you're afraid of abuse, I'd suggest making it 36x or something like that... Another thought is that maybe rather then x by y make the unrestricted an area minimum of maybe 1156 or something like that....

Now I'm confused... There was a published minimum of 33x33

Sorry, I should have been a bit more clear, I meant more of a published minimum in the sense of not merely "anything larger than 32x32" sort of like how the restricted category isn't just "larger than 8x8" but has a specified minimum size of 20x20.

Why are we discussing this here?! This has nothing to do with the faction of Lenfald, any queries regarding the Global Challenge should be kept to its own thread. Thanks.

A quick reminder, there is only one week left to build for the Current LC. Is ANYONE planning on entering by Saturday, or should I extend the deadline again?

I will be entering, and my entry should be up sometime this week, most likely sooner rather than later.

Why yes, I happen to have them right here. I went back and recompiled all entries. Entries were taken from the GC VI topic, and I also added in Acrosswave's entries for the outlaws because he mentioned entering in that topic. If an entry has not been posted or hinted at in the official GC VI topic, I have not reflected that data here. In addition, one entry for the Outlaws was listed as just "for the largest entry" but it was built on a 32X32 baseplate without anything adding to the base size of the MOC, so I counted it as a restricted MOC. Also, any entries that blatantly depicted the killing of the queens troops were not included, as per AK Bricksters announcement on that issue. That said- Here are the stats as they sit now:

Garheim:

Vignette Entries: 11= 11 points (most in the GC VI)
Restricted Entries: 9= 27 points
Unrestricted Entries: 6= 30 points
Total Entries: 26
Total points based off of entries: 68

Lenfald:

Vignette Entries: 10= 10 points
Restricted Entries: 11= 33 points (most in the GC VI)
Unrestricted Entries: 6= 30 points
Total Entries: 27 (most in the GC VI)
Total points based off of entries: 73 (most in the GC VI)

Loreos:

Vignette Entries: 8=8 points
Restricted Entries: 7= 21 points
Unrestricted Entries: 7= 35 points (tied for most in the GC VI)
Total Entries: 22
Total points based off of entries: 63

Outlaws:

Vignette Entries: 10=10 points
Restricted Entries: 9= 27 points
Unrestricted Entries: 7= 35 points (tied for most in the GC VI)
Total Entries: 26
Total points based off of entries: 72

So, as you can see the entry point results are very close indeed! Lenfald won by 1 point in both total entry numbers, and points received by entries (should be accurate, but remember these are unofficial results), showing that, yes indeed- every entry counts! However, please note that all the point totals are VERY close- there are a mere 11 points of separation between the highest entry points and the lowest entry points. This means that, if Loreos, or Garheim wins this contest, they will take the top spot in Global points totals. Should Lenfald (or the outlaws) win, Lenfald will retain its position on the top. Excellent work everyone, you all make me proud to be a Lenfel!
