AND THE THEME IS "CITIES OF THE SHIRE"

Contestants will be building in the style of one of Shire's own cities! You won't know the city until you've claimed your plot! 
THE SUSPENSE!

This will be a SOLO BUILD competition so you're on your own on this one. Here are the details.

1: Staff will assign you a randomly-chosen Shire city whose style you must use for your build.
2: You cannot request which city you'll receive and you will not be assigned your own city.
3: You may receive advice and input from the city owner/mayor/leader/king/queen/president/emperor/tyrant etc, but they cannot help you design or build.
4: Your build must follow the lore and personality of the city - talk to the city builder!
5: The competition will begin January 15 at midnight and end February 15 at midnight.
6: More info will be found at /warp BC

Some reminders:
Absolutely no worldedit or voxel is allowed - not even /repl! Staff will be hawkeyeing the builds. 
- Everyone will have creative mode regardless of rank
- Build must be completed with interior to qualify for judging
- Staff members are welcome to participate but will not be able to judge if entering

Do /warp BC on January 15 to claim your plot 
/plotme auto - assigns you a plot
/plotme claim - claims the plot you're standing in
/plot home - gets you back to your plot
/plotme clear - clears your plot

Here are some pictures of Shire cities for inspiration. These will not be the only cities used for the competition (they're just the ones I have good shader shots of lol)

    [quote="Konegido;4972"]Lovely! I'm in!

    Also, maybe you should reconsider Tiny Wytapcha as a theme. "- Build must be completed with interior to qualify for judgingdoesnt really apply to the ones who get assigned to that city

    Thank you for your input! We're keeping Wytapcha and we're positive that whoever gets it will have the imagination and resourcefulness to make it work. Gotta think outside the box, Kone! Lol

    I pity the fool(s) that gets stuck with Oranjestad, but FYI if you do, here is a map of the parts of Oranjestad that are appropriate to use as reference (everything in the red circle).  And don't forget all the subterranean stuff. http://imgur.com/wpaVJiw
