Although I was not an original judge of this event, I (Adam Forsgren/Adme3tris) was given control and permission by the creators to lead it, and take it to a new level. My quest is to someday have the Trica become nation, if not world, wide. I'm taking baby steps to doing so, but each year I hope that more locations will sprout up, and the base of contestants will continue to grow. The bigger this gets, the more fun it will be!
In 2005, the judges decided to experiment with a Trica theme, and chose "Ninjas vs Pirates." It was a huge sucess, but in attempt to keep things creative, the theme concept was set aside in 2006. 2007 will again be themed... but as what?
Beginning in 2006, bonus modifiers began springin up on the list, adding a cohesive flare to items by making them trickier, therefore worth more points. 2006 had infinity, which rewarded contestants for doing an item all day long instead of as a one shot deal.
Of course, an important part of the history is the teams who've won. You can look at them all here, in the archives. Woul'd you like to join their godlike ranks?
