Monthly Competition 1: Castles​

Welcome to the first of what will hopefully be many competitions on the server. This month's theme is that of castles - ranging from typical medieval castles to the most eldritch structures you can imagine. These will be done via a new plotworld - /mvtp competition - and once it's up, you may immediately start building. Once you're happy with your build, you can mark your plot as complete with /plotme done, entering you into the competition. Builds must be done solo - there is to be no collaboration. Good luck to all entrants, and I look forward to seeing all of your wonderful castles!

If enough AdvBuilders enter, they will be competing for a separate prize of roughly the same value which is yet to be decided.

Information
Date: July 11 - July 25
Theme: Castles
Plot Size: 96x96
Restrictions: No VoxelSniper
Prize: A copy of FTL: Faster Than Light on Steam
Judges: Prizyms, tnmjimbob, SirComputer, Tamzies, rawrmynameisrex

good thing I've been consistently procrastinating trying to make something advb-worthy

 

[Fiestaguy]

I find it unfair for those still players who don't have WE At their disposal ;-;

 

[Psycho]

Wait, what? I thought WorldEdit would be disabled as well?

Isnt the WE issue only for the one plots level?

'One plots lever' what?

 

[Awwwyea]

'One plots lever' what?

Assuming only the "Plots" world -- Not any of the other worlds on the server.

What's likely meant is the Player rank. The reason Players do not have WorldEdit is to promote more quality and detail. In the competition, no offense to players, but you've probably not got a lot of chance of winning against an experienced Builder. The competition is mainly intended for Builders & Adv Builders anyway, shown by the 96x96 plot size, which is probably going to need some WorldEdit.

Funny I thought nill had said something about no WE on plots being an issue with the perms, like the /help thing. Ohh well.

 

[Robo]

WorldEdit allowed here?
Also, /? for the help command.

EDIT: Do the castles have to have interior?

[SirComputer]

How doth we claim a plot to build on?

Big instructions:

/mvtp competition

/plot auto

Well, that's what it is since permissions aren't broken now and Nill likes to edit posts

Plots issue is now fixed, worldedit is theoretically disabled.

worldEDIT:damn it prizyms is worldedit allowed or not
Buildbox: Priding ourselves on staff communication.

The Plots issue with players/builders claiming plots in both the Plots and Competition worlds isn't fixed. Players still get 0/0 max plots message. I've had to claim plots for two Builders in the comp world. So if anyone else wants to join the comp and can't claim a plot, then hit up staff to get one for you until Nill fixes the permissions.

Will interiors of the castles be judged or is this only about the exterior?

Interiors will be judged.
