*** NEW COMPETITION -- DOWNTOWN ***

[flrnprdmn]

So!

We want to start a new competition in the next few days, it'll be a building competition.

We want you to build an epic looking skyscraper! Sounds easy, doesn't it? :D

In this case we want an epic looking new city at the end of the competition, so we would like you to apply by leaving a reply to this post.
Just include:
> Your In-Game Name
> The reason why you would like to build a skyscraper
> Why we should choose YOU as one participant of the competition. Please post screenshots of your current builds, that will greatly improve your chance being selected!

The competition will be held from April 1st to May 1st. So get applying! :)

Building Materials will NOT be provided to you - you will have to acquire your own!
Creative mode will NOT be given out to people on the competition.

Prizes:

The prizes for the event are still under discussion and depending on the amounts of entrances/quality of the builds, the prizes may change, but will likely be something similar to what is below;

1st Place: - $50,000 in-game and Lifetime VIP

If you get a prize and you already have ViP other arrangements will be made. At the moment I'm not in a position to say what these arrangements currently are, what they will be or how they will be decided.

> The reason why you would like to build a skyscraper: I naturally enjoy building complex structures, a skyscraper is no different. And, in my own opinion of myself (your opinion may vary), I have a good ability too not only design what is in front of my eyes, but also the potential of what COULD be there. Making my designs have an ability to take a life of their own as I build them. Making their designs, themes, and look something fluid, extravagant and cohesive as a style.

I am an industrial designer by profession and am trained to complete any design project to invoke emotion and to perform a task, a skyscraper is no different. I don't have mush on the server so far as builds to prove who I am capable of, but what I do have is a Giant tree with a jack-o-lantern wall, and other details. It is constantly growing and morphing, and currently even has a back story to explain the look and design.

Eventually it will be covered with puzzle traps, puzzle pits, and rewards for visitors to compete and work together with.

V-Here you can see the entire build thus far (as taken from the airship). This is obviously not complete and as more time goes on more details will be added. This has all been built in about a week.-V


V- Another view of the tree from below -V

Come! Take a tour with me on how this tree grows! And the Life cycle of this mysterious growth!


V-How the tree forms: A giant "alien" fruit falls to the ground.-V


V-If cracked open contains an edible fruit similar to watermelon.-V



V-Once it takes root it eventually forms into a sapling.-V

All of this is still in construction and everyday it grows closer to the final design, and evolves as the design speaks more to me as I build it.

I hope to apply this ability and thought process to the skyscraper and allow the form of the city to create something exciting, modern, and glorious for the server.

> I think it'll let me get to know some other the other competitors, and get more involved with the server, I also want to see if other people like what I build, as this is the first real server I've joined =D

I've got these pictures, plus some others that are too large (and I don't feel like cropping :p) of a Desert oasis type farm I'm working on, soon to include a large wool chicken, with a chicken farm on the inside, along with a 3 stack wheat harvest system (1 stack of bread per harvest in other words :p)
