Clavus Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 Ok, done waiting for Minecraft 1.3. Starting later today, until Minecraft 1.3 is released until July 6th, 23:59 (GMT+1), the Minecraft server will run the Mr. Green Minecraft Olympics Build Contest!The map will be reset once the contest starts. Factions will be altered to accommodate building teams (no power loss, 10 power per player, no building outside faction area, max 100 power per faction, Creative Mode for everyone).GOALThe goal? Build an arena / playground / field where players can go 1 on 1, 1 vs a team, or team vs team in a specific game (doesn't have to be symmetrical). For example, a Spleef Arena, or PvP battle ground (Sky arenas? Underground lava temple?), or ender pearl throwing match, or a redstone puzzle room. You can make up whatever game you want, as long as you clearly define the play rules and you can demonstrate it. You can make multiple arenas / playgrounds for the same game, but it'll be judged as a single entry.HOW TO PARTICIPATEYou can only participate as part of a faction. Just create or join a faction, claim some land (you need at least 3 players in a faction to claim land!), and you're good to go.Once you've finished a structure you can submit it in this topic.JUDGINGJudging is done by me. I will base my choices on 1) effort that went into the structure, 2) how much fun the game is.PRIZES1st place: 10.000 Green-Coins (total, not per member) and permanent reserved slots for all faction members. 2nd place: 5000 Green-Coins3rd place: 2500 Green-CoinsAll winning entries will be immortalized in our WorlEdit template folder and might be used for future events.RULESRuining the server using your newfound Creative Mode powers will get you banned real quick.

Mr. Darkness Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 (edited) Frizzy, it's your chance to show how to NOT let anyone even enter the building area thanks to your force field discovery! By the way, Clavus. When is the deadline?Oh, Nevermind. Just read it wrong. Thought it will start once the 1.3 is released .Won't be able to join since my 32-bit pc is a bitch with Java >.> Edited June 26, 2012 by Mr. Darkness Quote Link to comment

So do me a favour and don't show him it. Quote Link to comment
Clavus Posted June 26, 2012 Author Share Posted June 26, 2012 Nvm the thing about the xray banned players being able to play, they're in the global ban list too and I'm not removing them from there. Quote Link to comment

Clavus Posted June 26, 2012 Author Share Posted June 26, 2012 Ok because things went south pretty rapidly, I'm now enforcing the minimal-3-players-per-faction setting again (so you need 3 players before you can claim land). Since I don't want to force players to work in groups, you're now allowed to make an entry with just a subset of the members in your faction. So no longer is an entry tied to a single faction, but to 1 or more players that you list yourself. Quote Link to comment

Frizzy Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 Could you disable the live-map to stop people from spying on creations? I have a few open-topped ones that I'd rather not have copied. Quote Link to comment

awesomeo_5000 Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 We decided there's no point entering the contest. If we won legit people would grumble we used admin powers and we have a reserved slot as op anyway. Instead we used world edit and beasted through our arena in one evening. That didn't stop me needing rescue from corby when it came to the curved edges though It's never that I don't want people playing with us, it's just that it wouldn't be fun for you. There's very little to do and no chance of a reward at the end When we go on to 1.3 and build with the peaceful faction we can all hang out and build legit then Quote Link to comment
Darkstar Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 If we won legit people would grumble we used admin powers and we have a reserved slot as op anyway. MC players will always be crying about that I'm afraid. Baron Baconeer 1 Quote Link to comment
