Ok people, im kinda disappointed in some of you.

1st, If you back a few pages there is a link for a temporary crush the castle forum for castles that dont have to do with this contest.

2nd, we are no longer on realistic castles, go back a few pages to find what the current category is....

also, it doesnt really matter if we miss some of the castle falling apart, I understand that that is hard to do sometimes.

this was originally the property of TheShadowOfHappiness, but, with a few tweaks, I got it so that it fails MISERABLY!!!
if this one wins, the choosing and judging of the next one will be Shadow's.

Ok guys, seriously stop posting your normal castles here. Actually read the title before posting. And whimsyboy, don't change other people's castles without permission. And no one chooses the category and judges except for me and JJ, so you don't have a say in this.

Thanks, PrivatePapi, for "The Bravest King Award". In the category ... I don't remember ;-)

Really hard to have the overview of so many brilliant new contributions in lost pages, contest pages, temporary pages, etc.

I'll try to contribute sth. ... cleverer than 0~w_i:-650,-6000|c_p:-650,387.5|
