I'm a moderator on creative and no longer have a need for gems, so I wanted to find a good way to give them away. I've decided that a build competition would be a good and productive way to give them away. I would like feedback and suggestions on this idea to make it as good as possible.

The Build Comp
  • 1 hour time limit
  • Teaming NOT allowed
  • 4-8 contestants
  • Theme will be posted a WEEK in advance (because of this, no world edit will be allowed)
  • The main judges will be Moderators/Eluthria members
  • Prize: 50 gems

The way to compete in the build competition will be to post your name in the thread for the Build comp (first come, first serve). If you competed in the previous build comp, you will not be permitted to enter the next build comp unless after 3 days the spots have not been filled.

I have not yet decided on a date for the build comps to be hosted on. It will depend mainly on when people vote. The prize of 50 gems is the minimum amount of gems. Depending on donations of gems from other mods/Eluthria members, it can be higher.

Any kind of feedback, suggestions, etc. would be highly appreciated. This thread is only temporary to get feedback on the competition and try to improve it. I will make an official Build Comp thread.

One thing that I would like to ask is, Will WE be allowed? I wouldn't recommend WE because people would cut a lot of building time short and theirs might look better.
I think that this should be based off of raw talent.

Oops, I didn't see the those. I am not usually this absent-minded.
