Iron Whispers. Figured out what tournament right from the get-go. I'll join. I could probably be a captain, or not. I don't mind either way.

One question: Do the builders stop at a certain number of parts attached or a certain weight limit we build to?

It's weight based, captains will build a chassis then the remaining weight will be divided by 4 and each builder adds that much weight.

G.K. and RedAce you shall be captains as you posted first :)

Are the Ironforge weight limits listed somewhere?

Are the Ironforge weight limits listed somewhere?
In a nutshell, the weight limit for Ironforge is the normal weight limit cut in half. For the sake of looking for it, here are the weight limits, sans ballasts. LW is 125 kg, MW is 200 kg, and HW is 400 kg.

Edit: Ninja'd, but I was a little more specific.

I can build.
How you make Alarm Clock Pizza is:
Step 1: You buy an alarm clock from the store, and then you have to break it and put it in the sauce.
Step 2: Fold the sauce in 5 slices and put it in the dough.
Step 3: Paint the eggs with a pitcher of a clock showing what time you want to wake up and eat pizza for breakfast.
Step 4: Put the eggs in the dough.
Step 5: Make it flat into a round shape and draw the time you want on it.
Step 6: Put some old steel to prevent other peple from stealing it.
Step 7: Make it flat and cut into 60 slices 1 for each minute in 1 our.
Step 8: Put in the oven set the timer to 30048813.2884 seconds and put the temperature on 'Volcano' setting.
Step 9: If you think it is take to long, then get yor alarm clock and set it to now so that it will ring and you can take it out.
Step 10: Take it out uv the uvin wen it is redy and go to bed. In the morning eat pizza and also eat yor hands bi mistake.

Is there any chance someone can swap out being a captain with me? I don't want to hold you all up but I'm really busy today with BTTB and might not be able to make chassis
