LVZ2881 Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 I understand where the "NNL" name comes from, Nameless National Luminaries..and how the NNL type shows were started, but whats the difference between an NNL show and a regular show, like the GSL type??

JHDrew Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 I understand where the "NNL" name comes from, Nameless National Luminaries..and how the NNL type shows were started, but whats the difference between an NNL show and a regular show, like the GSL type?? The NNL is not a contest but a venue to show your latest creation and enjoy some bench racing bs with everyone. It was started as a sort of anti-contest. The only awards are voted on by the participants and are usually limited to "most popular" and "best theme" and sometimes a "best youth". The GSL type is a full blown contest with awards in all catatgories except "most popular" given based on a few judges selections. Hope that clears it up.

LVZ2881 Posted February 11, 2008 Author Share Posted February 11, 2008 so, being compared to the 1:1 world, a normal contest would be like an ISCA show, and a NNL would be a saturday night cruise in.. makes sense.......thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
curt raitz Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 (edited) Guys, Gals and " Yuts" will bring more of their models to show at an NNL - cuz it isn't a contest. You can enjoy the satisfaction of people looking at your models without being judged. You'll see everything from straight outa-da-box stuff up to and including contest/winning builds. They are very low key with lot of interaction between builders. Most NNL's will throw in a swap meet, youth table, and have door prizes as well. I attend the NNL West every year and have never came away dissapointed. Edited February 11, 2008 by curt raitz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
