Games & Events

Exhibitors welcome to play; these are typically not public events.  Rules and eligibility are determined by each game's host.  Sign-up for games by Tuesday, Jul 28th for best odds of being drawn to play.  Signing up does not guarantee a seat; it merely indicates your interest in playing the game.  How it works.

Typically, more people sign-up than there are seats.  The computer will attempt to shuffle players into their preferred games; you are more likely to be seated at your #1 pick than your #2.  Sign up for all games in which you are interested, then ensure your selections are properly sorted (at your games page).  Sign up for as many games as you wish; there is no benefit to limiting your sign-ups.

Everyone onboard by Tuesday, Jul 28th has the same chance of being drawn.  After the drawing, if seats remain available, sign-up for that game will remain open.

You may be drawn for multiple games but you will not be drawn for overlapping games.  You may be drawn as alternate in multiple, overlapping games; showing up as alternate - or not - is your choice.

Walk-Up Saturday 9:00pm
1hr 30mins

Players are provided with random cups of bricks. When the host says, "Go," players start building!

Players have limited time to build the most creative MOC they can muster. The objective is to be more creative than your competition and you must do it with your limited bricks and limited time.

  • Cups of bricks are provided for you.
  • Cups are the luck of the draw. You may find your bricks difficult to work with, but we'll try to keep all bags equal and fair.
  • You are not required to use every brick in the bag - simply be as creative as you can with what you have.
  • The final MOCs are judged.
  • One winner gets a LEGO set. Every player keeps their cup of bricks!

The other player sees the instructions but cannot see the building progress. Partner players spoon together, sitting upright. The big spoon (rear player) reads instructions and yells to the front where building partner tries to follow verbal instructions and build the kit.

24 players make 12 teams of two.

Selected sign-ups must bring their partner player with them to the game. If both players sign-up and both are selected, one must drop out to allow others to join the game.

Each team keeps their built kit and the fastest (and most accurate) team wins an additional prize.

Like Dirty Brickster (Secret Santa/White Elephant) but the vignettes are openly viewable.

Build a vignette (that you're willing to surrender) and bring it!  All vignettes are displayed together during the weekend.  At game time, vignettes are swapped, and a few bonus prizes awarded.  Sunday evening, after the public leaves, the vignettes are collected by their new owners to keep!

Players are provided (at the event) a display cube.  Limit one entry per person per game - enter only your best!

Everyone builds and brings a vignette. Everyone leaves with a different vignette!

Participating vignettes must:

  1. Be at least 8x8 studs wide, but must not have any parts projecting beyond 12x12 studs (strict!),
  2. Be no wider than 12x12 studs (strict!),
  3. Be no taller than 12 bricks + 1 plate + 1 tile (strict!), and
  4. Include at least 100 pieces.

See examples.  A vignette captures a moment in time and is usually very small.

World Of Lights
All ages Walk-Up Friday 9:00pm
1hr 30mins
Host: Todd Webb

Light up your MOC!  For one hour we'll darken the room and enjoy the show by the street lights of LEGOtown.

Admittedly, the venue doesn't get as dark as we would like. But until I invent the darklight, we're stuck with some emergency lights :(

World Of Lights BYOB

Yard Sale Saturday
All ages
Buy-in $10
Walk-Up Saturday 5:30pm
3hrs
Host: Todd Webb

This 2-hour event is your chance to sell leftover LEGO without being a vendor. Outside the vendor area, this is the only time registrants may openly advertise items for sale (the MOC area is a strict no-sale-sign zone).

Pre-price your items and collect some quick cash for your unwanted LEGO!

Sign-up on your account page after checking-in at the show.

When signing-up, you are permitted to claim either 1/2-table ($10) or one full table ($20). Limit one full table per seller. Sign-up next to any Table # you prefer (ie: Friend A signs up for Table #12 and Friend B signs up for Table #13 = these friends will be next to each other). But table numbers will not be assigned until the time of the Yard Sale. Setting up is not possible and not permitted until table numbers have been assigned and sellers know where to set up. Table fee will be collected during the sale so just go ahead set up and start selling someone will be around to collect your table fee Yard Sale tables are 72" x 30".

RULE #1: All items on Yard Sale tables must be available for purchase.

Tip #1: Basing prices on Bricklink is good, but if an AFOL can get it on Bricklink later, why should s/he buy it from you now? Give others a reason to shop at your table rather than someone else's.

Tip #2: TLG sells 32x32 plain baseplates for $4.99. You're not likely to sell a used one for $10.

Tip #3: Don't just dump brick on the table and expect it to sell. Baggies are cheap, and there are a lot of other sellers competing for attention.
