CCC XXI Announced
CCC XXI Announced
The Colossal Castle Contest is back for its 21st year! Categories will be posted on November 1st and the contest will run through January 3rd, 2024.
Re: CCC XXI Announced
Am I understanding the rules correctly that, if the intended creation (even if it fits the theme) was shown anywhere online or offline before the contest start date - it cant participate?
And what about the work-in-progress shots?

Re: CCC XXI Announced
That is correct. The wording from last year's rules:
All submissions must be new and not shared online or at public events prior to November 1st, 2022(it'll be 2023 this year)
If work-in-progress shots were shared on the internet, you may not submit that creation.
Re: CCC XXI Announced
This will be my first year participating in this event, and I’m really looking forward to it!
I went on a bit of a spending spree during the double Insider points promotion this past week, so I now have several sets to use as inspiration and parts once the contest begins.

Re: CCC XXI Announced
Ok, can't wait to see some awesome categories for this year, I wonder how much overlap with Brickscalibur we have this time.
Anyway, I will be participating for sure.

Re: CCC XXI Announced
In attempt to be 100% transparent, we don't think about any other contest when planning, which we do start way earlier than anyone would expect.
We are respectful of other contests and communities. We have no ill will for anyone. We believe all the castle that gets built is awesome and welcome.
If we overlap, it is completely by accident.

Re: CCC XXI Announced
Haha, yeah I know, it was just a joke and any overlap would be a coincidence (still it can make it somewhat easier to enter multiple categories if they do overlap).
I appreciate the work needed to come up with new contest ideas each time, so thanks for that, can't be easy every time.

Re: CCC XXI Announced
Nice categories. Unless I suddenly get too busy, I will enter to at least one of them. Hopefully more than one.
Re: CCC XXI Announced
Good categories! Always fun to see the announcement.
