This is a preliminary draft. The due date, prize, and general rules haven't been set. I need approval to hold this contest first, anyways.

According to Wikipedia, "A useless machine is a device that performs a mostly useless task, such as switching itself off, and performs no other practical function."

Some good examples are here :13 Awesomely Useless Machines - Urlesque

The goal is to make utterly useless machines out of K'NEX pieces only. Reply if you think you're up for the challenge!

I actually might try this over Thanksgiving break.

Are we allowed machines that have already been built?

This mind-bending machine completes one turn every 2.3 trillion years

I might do this, I'm very low on micro peices right now and can't get any more untill christmas but I have a ton of standard pieces so I can't build on my coaster untill I get more micro. But I can use my standard snd do this!

SSC Policiy states that we do not allow user ran contests during official SSC contests, in this case the Winter Contest. Further more, before an unnoficial contest can take place the staff has to be informed about your plans. After the Winter Contest you can open a new thread, but for now this one will be closed.

Further information regarding unofficial contests can be found here:
