Progryck head games (giveaway)

Discussion in 'Miscellaneous' started by Progryck, Apr 9, 2023.

  1. Hey everyone, Welcome to another round of head games.

    This time I have multiple versions of my head on the chopping block.
    If you want to earn one you must complete one of the tasks below.
    Some tasks are easy, some tasks are a bit harder, but everyone should be able to complete at least one.

    For your convenience I have separated the challenges in different groups, depending on what kind of head you can earn.
    Please check the description in each challenge and feel free to ask questions/help each other in this thread. Good luck to everyone.


    My Buildteam(™) head. This head is one I often give away to players that participate in our build team events and show enthusiasm or resourcefulness while completing the event.
    Everyone may claim 1 buildteam head for the 2024 spring event.

  5. And there we go. The event went offline so i have send out the first 4 heads to their respective winners.

    But it seems the event came back for more action, so I'll keep this small competition going for a bit longer, 6 more heads are still available.

  7. jewel you
  8. Doing some cleanup work on smp1 in the wild. Area that needed re-terrain as a nuke had gone off there on a small strip of desert area. All the sand taken and a scarred crater left. It's few hundred blocks from spawn, near a road someone installed to make travel easier. Most of the tree planting and terrain work has already been done, done whenever I needed a break from some other aspect of the game.
    Except for this hole. Had never really decided what went into this terrible chunk square dig down. Enter the inspiration of the digging drill. After I got it in (stupidly forgot scaffolding) I noticed that it not as beefy as I would have liked. It also needs some additional decor. But this is enough to get the picture entered (as I require your head).
    Will post follow-ups as they happen.

  9. Decided to build a Steampunk Fishsub at my harbour on utopia. First time for this sort of theme for me... think Ill add some more weathered blocks into it though





    6 passenger cabin

    engine room

  10. It has been brought to my attention that I never actually closed this competition, for the easter event of last year never actually closed either. (Until recently)


    So with that, I have closed the remaining challenges, and the winners have been sent their rewards.



    I'll keep this thread open, I "might" do another one of these on another event.

  11. And there we go. Another event, another round of the headgames.
    If you have not collected any of my heads yet you might want to try these devious games.
    Good luck to everyone.

    PS: I might add more games as time goes on, so be sure to check out this thread every so often.
