Simple question -
Can I build a rig that I can connect to the internet only as needed to upload/download or do I have to remain connected constantly?
Thanks

Connected constantly.

Agree, while mining you need to be connected. e.g. you have to announce your new block to whole community.

p.s. "offline mining rig" sounds to me like a joke Cheesy

what about you have more then 1 rig(lan connected), you could create your own nodes, and your own coin, without internet, no profit ok, but at least it's possible i think

In theory you probley could set up a node. But there is no information going out to other nodes so you essentially get nothing. You would run electricity for no coins.
