The Great Canopy Build Contest
Posted: Fri Mar 08, 2013 4:18 am
As some of you may have seen or heard, I've started up work on canopy again. After completing a few buildings, I've come to the conclusion that some outside inspiration and ingenuity will be beneficial to the region. Therefore, I have decided to open up canopy to a building contest.
Now, this will be slightly different from the contests that have been held in coal and valterra. In order to get the best city atmosphere, I have decided that the plots should be of varying sizes and shapes. Below, I will post a rendering of the competition plots. Please choose a plot and respond below if you wish to participate. Plots will be delegated on a first-come first-serve basis.
There are two other important notes. First, due to the unique construction of canopy, there will be very little room below the builds. I will allow access to the utility space below, but please do not meddle with the ceiling lights. Second, Due to the restricted plot sizes, I have decided that I will allow you to build up onto the cobble with your builds ( if you wish ). If you ask, I will add the lip to your building's roof if it does extend past the plot boundary.
Plot C is still open if anyone still wants to participate
And what would a competition be without rules?
1. Your build must be in the canopy style ( steam-punk )
2. Behave yourself while building, no unnecessary riff raff.
3. I'll try to give you all access to some farms downstairs, be frugal with them.
4. Don't mess with the lights.
5. Have fun!
6. Enjoy the super difficult parkour too.
Note: Prizes are to be announced soon aka I'm working on them
Note: Start Date will be Saturday 16 March 2013 ( 16:00 GMT )
