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

[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 judging" doesnt really apply to the ones who get assigned to that city[/quote]
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! Lol0 -
[quote="Konegido;4974"]We are all thinking isnide the box, this is minecraft gawdammit XD[/quote]You can do it, Kone. You can think outside the box. I believe in you! Don't worry. Keep trying! You will get there! =D2

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/wpaVJiw3
