Congrats to Ragesquid for the win! The contest was really fun and I will try to enter next time as well. Thanks LadyBountiful and Zedwick for holding it!

[Etho]

Well congratz to everyone in the build off. But I have something about it I didn't know it was apart of it.

The previous build-off I had won with my build and the theme was A House For Zed or Lady. When I was building Lady said herself that the winning build would be showcased at spawn. Sadly, it was used for resources and supplies in this build-off. I really thought it was going to be Zed or Lady's actual house on the server, but unfortunately it was not.

But congratulations to RageSquid for winning the build-off! And congratulations to all the people who entered. <3

The previous build-off I had won with my build and the theme was A House For Zed or Lady. When I was building Lady said herself that the winning build would be showcased at spawn. Sadly, it was used for resources and supplies in this build-off.

I'm sorry if adding your build to the arena centre upset you, we had thought it would be fun to see previous entrees appear again in future build-offs. We welcome feedback on how to approach this in future, we don't want to see anyone soured by the treatment of their build.

We do still plan to showcase the winning builds in spawn, we are going to be preparing an area for all the winning builds. Sorry they've not gone up soon after the competition end, we've just not had the time to prepare the area yet.

I personally had no problem with the houses being stripped for resources. It was a cool callback to the last build-off, and an interesting twist on a server where destroying houses is usually strictly forbidden. Thankfully, the builds can be rebuilt over and over; nothing is lost I'd love to see this come back in some capacity in the future, and I'm interested to see if anyone else had a reaction similar to Etho's.

[LadyBountiful]

I'm sorry Etho_, if you were offended by competitors being able to scavenge your build. It is a way of keeping resources in the arena. As Zed said in an earlier post, your build is safe and well. It will appear in spawn as soon as Zed and I have prepared space for the three winners now of the build-off competitions. And if we don't get a move on there will be four winners to accommodate.

[Etho]

Nah it's cool. I'm glad it was used. Now my builds are apart of everyone's builds!

I'm not one of those people who's all like, "WHAT! YOU DESTROYED MY BUILD! I WORKED SO HARD ON THAT, WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS TO ME! I QUIT THE SERVER!" But at least we all had fun, and like I said, if people used part of my build, it's a-okay, and now my build was apart of everyone else's who was in the competition!

Also, I really don't mind when you guys put my build in spawn, I was just curious as to what happened if it got corrupted or deleted somehow, or what happened to the thing. But next build competition, I'll be prepared to take on whoever is there! >:D
