Now -> Sunday, July 16th at 23:59 BST - "Circus" Mini-build Competition

We're excited to announce our next build competition theme, which is... Circus! We're all looking forward to seeing what you build! The twist? You are only allowed a plot size of 39x39.

Head to Creative and use /p auto if you're a new player!

Scoring

Your submission will be graded based on the following categories:

  • Quality: Quite simply, this is how good your build looks
  • Originality: How unique is your build? Is it similar to other entrants or is it out of the box?
  • Relation to Theme: Does your build relate to the published theme and, if so, how well?

Guidelines

The typical build competition rules apply. You may not copy your build, you may have a maximum of 1 teammate, and builds started before this announcement do not count.

Remember, WorldEdit and extended plot flags are now available to all players, including non-ranks!

Deadline & Submission

You have until 23:59 BST on July 17th to submit your creation in this form.

Prizes

1st: 50 Lemons + Talented role in our Discord

2nd: 35 Lemons + Talented role in our Discord

3rd: 20 Lemons + Talented role in our Discord

Best of luck!

A massive thank you goes to joinski for coming up with this event!
