And JJ forgot the deadline yet again. It will be on August 21st and I will be judging on August 22nd.

My 1st sample.

Category: Best Balancing Act
Name: The airy castle
Reason why in this category: For me, castlenovice, it's quite interesting that it doesn't collapse by itself, despite its fragile appearance

My 2nd sample.
Category: Best Balancing Act
Name: Highrise Throne with King and Princess
Reason why in this category: For me, castlenovice, it's quite interesting that it doesn't collapse by itself, despite its relative height

My 3rd sample.
Category: Best Balancing Act
Name: Perfect balance
Reason why in this category: It looks indeed very very simple, but it's the perfect balance :-)

The following is a multplication of the above; unfortunately, one of the 17 princesses dies while testing (I don't know which ... AND I didn't manage to kill the remainimg 16 -> it's not domino)

well well ...

I call it White Princesses in the Black Box

sorry my double posting for the
White Princesses in the Black Box

Hope you enjoy it!

@singid: I absolutely agree! Your example is outstanding! Mine are - hm, just samples - and I'm perfectly aware that I will not win the contest, which is not my target, basically.

I just enjoy the fantastic castles/structures and try to encourage you guys to do even better castles or structures. It's sooooooooooooooooooo fun to see some excellent castles/structures. I name no names, everybody knows who is - I should say ARE - concerned.

Why don't you help me to build the highrise of my "Crush the Castle"-dreams. I'd love it. I give you all necessary support. I have some knowledge now, but some things miss, also time for the moment (no argument).

In case my English is not US or whatever style, let me tell this: my mother tongues are German and French.
That's why I find it sometime difficult to write such cool descriptions for my structures.

Castle your Writing is good, I had no Idea it (English) was not your first language. You will see that there are all types of grammar and writings in the US.

A lot going on in this one. I will call it "Balancing Jungle Gym".
