Your build challenge for 2015, if you choose to accept it, will be No Studs On Top. any connection made with a stud facing up will disqualify the entry.
The smallest set will be given to the entry that looks ‘least awkward’.
I need some clarification. So there can’t be a single stud up connection at all, or just showing on top? Would a tile on top of the stud suffice? Or does everything have to be built upside down?
None at all. if you’re looking for a smooth top, look at the 2:5 ratio.

Clips may also be a useful tool in this challenge.
first, the smallest set, ie, the prize, for this contest will be Olivia’s speedboat. http://shop.lego.com/en-US/Olivia-s-Speedboat-3937
and, to clarify the rules a little bit. Studs facing vertical, and showing, is OK. Connections on to those vertically facing studs is not. if you built a tower of 2×4 bricks vertically, it would not be OK. If you knocked it over on it’s side, now it’s entirely legal, though boring.
got it?

Nope. Don’t get how a brick could have studs facing vertical and showing without there being a connection to a vertically facing stud. Unless you’re just slapping brackets on top…
There are bricks with studs on more than one side, so you could have the brick facing sideways, but one of it’s studs still facing up.
Josh, are you aloud to stick things through the holes in the middle of studs facing up, or does that count as a studs up connection?

Yeah, you said “any connection made with a stud facing up” but I don’t think vertical bar-to-hollow-stud connections – e.g. an activated light saber – should be prohibited. What’s the ruling?
