Stronghold Building Contest - 3rd of October

[MrZunz]

What about map size? do we still have a border? if so, I can tell you it's going to be one hell of a clusterfuck.

[EmRA]

nah, seems to be plenty of space even with the current borders.

[Clavus]

Plenty of space indeed. 1800 block border radius means a pi*1.8^2 = 10,17 square kilometers of building space.

[Dr.Minky]

Another thing, people should be able to say (and supply proof) if they believe their build is stolen from a schematic or something, bit unfair for a building contest if it its just copied block for block from someone else, not to say people shouldnt use them for inspiration

I know what the prodiguild is building already

[Clavus]

The building contest has started! Use this topic for discussion.

[TheGreenGrasshopper]

I only build the front side of my exterior wall and I've already used 12 out of my 18 chunks -.-' guess I'll need to call in some friends.

[Clavus]

Claim limit is now 24 per player.

Placing lava and TNT is now prohibited for non-whitelisted players. If you want to get whitelisted, ask me.

[Clavus]

ANOTHER CHANGE:

I decided the prizes weren't sufficient. Look at the updated original post for the new stuff that's at stake.

[Luke Nukem]

Clavus I must have a chance at winning?

[Clavus]

Want to give a heads-up to everyone. If there are not enough submitted entries by Sunday (at least 8) the contest will be forfeit. I'm not planning to give away prizes unless the contest was taken serious.

Do you count all those dicks too?

[Clavus]

Any submitted entries that fit the contest theme.

[Drainal]

I'm in on the Contest; but I don't know what Steam is, so even if I supposedly win - You should give the prize to someone else

[xsissel]

I don't get why people keep building other stuff then the actual contest. I'ts a STRONGHOLD contest. Not a lets build some building that look nice contest

[Dr.Minky]

If only I could of entered trolololololololololol

Poor ol' ProdiGuild..

Oh Clavus it seems a bit unfair on the people who put loads of effort in to just drop the prize completely, why dont you just make it the original prize you had instead! (the €10 game and some green coins), that seems better fitting to the amount of people that entered

[Dr.Minky]

Well its better than nothing right?

[Sacrevy]

Well its better than nothing right?

The point is: I dont need the money or anything, but IF we would win, the money would be shared so everybody who helped (from our faction) Could get Gmod.

[Dr.Minky]

Well that'd at least get it for a couple people right? I have ideas for other competitions Clav might want to do too (not mc related) Someone should start a thread of competition ideas

+1

Very VERY good statement.

[Rinkana]

I was wondering how are you going to see what the people made. Since this is a stronghold contest i bet many people have secret passages. And by just looking at the pictures you cant see that much.

[Clavus]

Well, better make sure I find everything then. It should play like a singleplayer adventure so I'm going to judge it as such.

Sooooo.... In other words your saying: I dont care, you can make a dildo for all I care. As long as I can play the zelda like adventures in it? What's the whole point of "Stronghold Building Contest" Please explain.

EDIT: becouse 4/7 submissions so far did not understand that clearely (by the looks of it)

Your creation will be judged on scale, detail, aesthetics, uniqueness, and adventure-worthiness. Bonus points for amazing redstone mechanics, environment detail, and anything else that'll make your structure more awesome.

A giant dick doesn't exactly get points for exterior design.
