      Having marveled at @brickbreaker4life’s massive reef at Brickfest and the Ross Park Mall, recently having an underwater themed Cranberry Library display, and just now seeing this Lego Minecraft reef on Reddit I think a reef-themed build challenge would be fun – any depth, any time period, any planet!

      Maybe we can do this for Q2 @joshhall?

        change the thread title, and either judge or find someone to judge. I don’t think anyone else claimed a Q2 challenge yet, so should be all set.

          Any volunteers to judge?

            Should we make it like the micropolis build where there are modules so they can all connect? I like the idea either way

              I thought about that. It may limit creativity for this one since people may want to include sea surfaces of different heights and the sea floors may vary due to caves or cliffs.

              That said people could collaborate to make compatible modules!

                Sorry I’ve been a little behind. When is the next meeting? Also doing a reef build would be a ton of fun!!

                  The next meeting will be Q1 on March 25th. This build challenge will be for Q2 which is currently unscheduled.

                    Q1 has been over for a couple weeks and we’re now actually into Q2, and somebody has pointed out on Discord that we don’t know when the Q2 meeting is. I’m not able to find a Q2 2023 thread. Am I just not finding it or do we need to get on that? @joshhall @knb112

                      I was personally waiting to see when Q2 AFOL Day was, and I’m just saw it confirmed for 6/24. If we want to do a North meeting, we can do it that day.

                        June 24th works for me.

                          I would be willing. If I judge, can I still bring a display for fun? Do we have guidelines on size and stuff? Also June 24th sounds good.

                              You’re always welcome to bring something to share – judge or not!

                              I don’t think we need any formal constraints – whatever goes!

                                      I’m new here and would like to participate in the challenge… is this officially the one for Q2? How much time is left?

                                      Where can I find info about future challenges?

                                        Welcome! Yes, this is officially the build challenge for Q2. You have until the Q2 meeting (June 24th). That’s where we’ll bring them all together and judge the winner.

                                        Where can I find info about future challenges?

                                        We don’t have anything formal. Usually we come up with them at the meeting or just before, but if you have an idea for a challenge, certainly post it for the Q3 one.

                                          Unfortunately, I won’t be able to make the Q2 meeting, but I may still participate just for fun. Can I tag the Settel CityLUG Instagram page?

                                            You can certainly still participate even if you can’t make the meeting. Just post your pics in this thread. We’ll also be streaming the meeting on Discord, so you can share there if you’re able to attend virtually.

                                                I am interested in going. I’m going to Dave Matthews Band this Friday so it could work.

                                                Anyone on here live in the south hills(Banksville, Dormont, etc.) ? Jw if I could catch a ride. Really think this group would be just what I need.

                                                I’m halfway done with the gringotts I created from old diagon alley. Best that
                                                I could do with the pieces I have for now.
                                                SHIRE is done and just built FINAL Hogwarts battle to connect castle.
                                                Also got first two new Indiana Jones sets.
