[Contest] Wondrous Residences of EMC Contest

Event Type: Contest

Event Description: To celebrate my up-coming one year anniversary on EMC, ChrisPaperX and I have decided to host a contest. To identify and recognize the terrific builds made by players in their Residences in Town. There are three categories: Grand Prizes, Regular Prizes, and Creative Prizes.

• Grand Prize Rules. The residence can be on SMP1 through SMP9 including Utopia. The build can be anything: castles, malls, huge projects etc. Winning builds are deemed by how impressive, huge, magnificent, and awe-inspiring they are. An EMC "Wonder of the World".
• Standard Prize Rules. The residence must be on SMP1 through SMP9. Utopia residences are excluded. The residence must be limited to one residence lot. Residences that combine multiple residence lots are excluded. The Regular Prize is intended to recognize domiciles, structures that resemble real world houses, where single families reside in. Castles, Hotels and Malls are excluded. Winning builds are judged by how much they resemble a real house. Artistic houses and historical houses are welcomed.
• Creative Prize Rules. The residence can be on SMP1 through SMP9 including Utopia. The Creative Prize is intended to recognize structures that are not huge projects or houses. They are more artistic and creative in nature. e.g. Roller-coasters, statues, parks. The creative prize is not intended for Redstone machines - sorry. We are looking to award beautiful imaginative builds that look good in a picture. Winning builds are judged by how creative, unique, and artistic they are.

Event Time/Date:Contest submissions must be submitted NLT 31JAN2014. Prizes will be awarded in the first week of FEB2014.

How to Submit: Reply to this thread by 31JAN2014. The thread must contain the following:

• Server Name e.g. SMP1

A valid entry must contain all of the requirements listed above. In addition, everyone must have teleport permissions to the residence and be able to move about. If I teleport to your residence and can only see a small room, the build will not win.
