Winter Build Contest Ending Soon!
The PickAxis Epic Winter Build Contest will be ending soon! Remember to submit your plot for judging by using /plot done while standing in it. Plots must be submitted by tomorrow night (Saturday, January 3rd) at 11:59pm Eastern Time. If you don't submit your plot, the judges won't be able to review it! We look forward to seeing what winter looks like to you!
Official Rules Builds cannot be offensive. All builds must be Halloween themed. What you build, i.e. a building, roller coaster, maze, interactive exhibit, haunted house, etc., is up to you. All builds, to be considered as an official entry, must be marked completed using the command /plot done. Any builds not identified as such by the close of the contest on October 30 at 11:59 PM Eastern Daylight Time (EDT), will not be judged as an entry. Criteria for judging, based on a 10 point scale, are as follows: Creativity, Originality, Halloween Theme, and Design. Point totals will not be made public. Have fun and think outside the coffin! Tips for Entries To get started and find your plot, perform the command /plot auto. If your entry requires elements not set as the default environment in the contest world, instructions should be placed on a sign at the border of your entry plot, facing towards the path. Elements can include a day/night element or weather. Any questions on other possible element capabilities should be messaged to helios8385 here on the forums. If there is a component of interaction involved with your entry, this must be EXPLICITLY and OBVIOUSLY noted on your contest plot. A sign along the outside edge of the plot, facing outwards towards the path, will suffice. All features of a creative server are enabled, including World Edit, redstone functionality, and gravel/sand block physics. Any questions on how to use World Edit should be Googled. Please don't bother the staff about your build.
