Hello Blocktopia! Arcius here, Lava Vetop. We recently had a bit of extended downtime on lava, so while we were waiting for things to get fixed, I was planning a little something to entertain the staff members. But the staff can't do this alone... so I present to you...
*fanfare*
Arcius's Tekkit Challenge
Yes, Tekkit. Now you'll have your chance to build a factory to do... I dunno, something interesting. That's up to you... Assuming you're a CEO. I've decided that any staff members will be able to enter as a CEO... However, there's only a limited number of companies, or this will probably never end (Although, it would make an entertaining official server).
However, this topic isn't about the CEOs. That's elsewhere. This section is about the people the work UNDER the CEOs. The workers. Yes. I'm starting up a Worker's Union for this challenge, allowing you, the nonstaff community (or staff members who don't want to be CEOs) a chance to help out and be a part of something fun!
Here's some information about the challenge:
High ranking staff members (Controller+ of any server, given that they are not competing in any way.) may visit the server at any time and request a tour of your factory. They are allowed to give reviews in the voting topic to help the users pick. Each of them will be allowed to score the factories on a scale of 1-10 (whole numbers only, please). So this means to be on your gaurd and be prepared to be the shining example of your company!
So, you guys interested? I thought so! Let's get to the important part of this topic. Becoming part of the workforce!
First of all, anyone can sign up. However, you can't pick who you're working for. The CEOs will each take turns picking their team members, one at a time. Thus making this a draft.
Second, you don't need any experience with Tekkit to participate. However, having some experience will help.
Third, not everyone will be picked. Just the nature of the beast. That doesn't mean don't sign up!
Fourth, you will need to have Tekkit downloaded (obviously).
So! With all of that out of the way... you can sign up by leaving a reply using the following form:
Notes: Occupations show what knowledge you have in Tekkit, if any. Choose which one best serves you. (Tekkit Noob is for those with little to no Tekkit knowledge. This doesn't mean you won't be picked.)
With that said and done, there will be updates on this topic about the starting date and what companies are drafting.
Now, I'm sure of you are probably wondering, what companies are there? Well, here's a small list of the four companies!

Here's some information about the challenge:
- There will be 3-4 companies, depending on how many players my computer can handle.
- Each company shall have one CEO and 2-3
slavesworkers that are picked by the CEO. This number may change depending on a few factors. - The eligible workers list shall be composed after the CEOs are selected.
- Each company shall have one CEO and 2-3
- Each company must have a unique name and product.
- I don't want to see a run of the mill diamond factory. Do something out of the norm.
- What you (the CEO) do to achieve these products is completely up to you (the CEO), assuming it doesn't crash the server (namely, no nukes, please... I already had a
hilariousbad experience with my IRL friend, Deadsong, with Tekkit).
- Workers may be fired and hired at will, but you can not exceed the limit.
- No high power explosives.
- No invading other companies' land or attacking their employees.
- Do not destroy other companies' work. (Unless said work is stealing from your company)
- Do not steal from other companies.
- Even number rules are only broken if you get caught. Odd numbers are to always be respected.
