Congrats to American_Walrus for winning the contest with his event Run from the Beast!
Come join us on the Minecraft Survival server to design and build your own unique event!
/warp eventdesign
Ingame voting results are in!
RFTB- 7 votes
Minecart Roulette- 6 votes
Blockparty- 6 votes
Chicken Luck- 5 votes
Tunnels- 2 votes
ParkourFight- 2 votes
Tripwire- 1 vote
These votes are from all the players who played the events. Anyone can now vote here for the final winner out of the top 3 chosen.

What is this? This is a contest, hosted by me and Scotmid, to design a new and unique* event
Who can participate? Anyone of any rank can participate as long as you have a forum account.
When is this going on? You can start designing and building right now! You have until 11:59 on Thursday (GMT-5) to design, build, and post your event right here on the forums. Countdown: http://itsalmo.st/#theendofthecontest
Where is this happening? You can build your event wherever you like (but please follow the guidelines posted below) and it will be moved into an arena for judging.
Why should I participate? The winner will receive 500k empbucks and have their event moved to World 3! The runner-up will receive 200k empbucks.
How does this work? You will design and build your event in-game. Then you will post here using the template at the bottom of this post to register your event. Any events not registered by 11:59 on Thursday will not be counted! Sometime on Friday (time tba) all the registered events will be hosted once for players to see how they work. You can cast a vote ingame during this time of hosting. This will narrow down to the top 3 events and then a poll here on the forums will be created where we will vote for the #1 event! This event will then be moved to World 3.

Rules:
1- Your event must be no longer/wider than 50x50 blocks. It cannot be taller than 50 blocks.
2- Your event cannot be underground. If that is how the design will be, you can build it above ground but inside a dirt square that is 50x50 dirt blocks.
3- Your event cannot be an exact copy of an already existing event we have in World 3*
4- Your event cannot copy the ideas of another registered event*
5- Your event must be playable by all players and ranks
6- Your event must be able to be won
7- Your event must not break any SuperFunTime rules
8- When you register your event, you agree to have it moved to the judging arena (and also moved to World 3 should you win the contest)

Other general information:
You can only register a single event. Once you register your event, you are saying it is completed and able to be moved. Your event may be moved while you are offline. A sign with the new warp to your event will be left in the place it was moved from when your event is moved to the judging arena. Only players who are online during the event hosting process can vote for the initial 3 events that will be put into the poll on the forums no later than Friday night. Voting will occur for about 36 hours (timeframe may change) before a winner will be chosen. Some rules or information may change. If you are banned during the time of the contest and are not unbanned by the end of the contest, your event is not eligible. You can build an event with one other player but you will split the prize money. If you build an event with a player, you cannot have them register the event and you register another. If your name is on an event that is registered, that is the only event you can register. (*Copying another build means a build with the same exact design, concept, or idea. Modifications (like changing spleef into bedrock spleef) are allowed, but the hosts are allowed to determine that an event idea is too similar to either another existing event in World 3 or another player's build. The host's decision on whether or not a build is too similar or is not original enough is the final decision.)

Please post below with any questions, comments, or concerns so we can fix any issues that might arise. Thanks! And good luck!

I'm still working on the sizes, I just updated them. But 300x300 is too large for this contest, since it has to be easily moved. But you could make a smaller version of your event possibly?

Yes, you can only register one event, to keep things fair.

Would it be possible to move part of it? Only part of it is usually used.


Also, it's underground, and idk how I'm gonna be able to rebuild it :P

Ultratomas

If I make it with simple blocks (dirt, cobblestone) does that mean that it will be made out of dirt in world 3? Or can you turn it into quartz and glass instead?

Ultratomas

Also am I allowed to make an event with teams? If so can you guys make a way to sort the players into separate teams automatically? And can i remove the nametags of the enemy team so blue team cant see red teams nametag and vise versa? Thanks.

Ultratomas

Last thing, if by any chance my event wins, am I allowed to host it myself? Or does it need to be an event host? And also can you make it so the players have infinate ammo (i wont say what yet)?

darknuju

So wait this is an event(contest) about making an event



American_Walrus

I just realized how much time and money this is going to take. Welp, what else am I going to use it for?

Ultratomas

Last thing (for real now xD) am I allowed to build it over sea and then move it so i don't have to flatten the land and then build it? And also can i use the plugin were if they fall (into water) then they automatically tp to a specific place? (but each team has to tp to a different place) or are we not allowed to use plugins at all?

You're allowed to use plugins that we already have installed (e.g the bridge/gate plugins) but I don't think you're allowed to make an Event that requires an external plugin to be downloaded or a custom one created.

I can come look at it, we'll see what we can do. :)

Yes, if it is chosen for World 3, we can edit it and change simple blocks into better materials, etc.
Quote from: Ultratomas on Jul 06, 2015, 02:52 PMAlso am I allowed to make an event with teams?

Yes. Also, any specific instructions for how it will work, you can write those down in the form when you register and we'll take note.
Quote from: Ultratomas on Jul 06, 2015, 03:00 PMIf by any chance my event wins, am I allowed to host it myself? Or does it need to be an event host?

You will be able to host it yourself, but you should still ask an EventHost or Mod+ before doing so, incase they are currently or planning to host.

Quote from: Ultratomas on Jul 06, 2015, 06:23 PMLast thing (for real now xD) am I allowed to build it over sea and then move it so i don't have to flatten the land and then build it?
You can build it anywhere, even over sea, as long as it's on a platform.

Also, Green_Giant is correct. We cannot impliment any new plugins or such for your events, so anything you are not able to do, there is a good chance we are unable to do it as well. Certain things are possible, however, with the help of flags, existing plugins, or just plain old trickery. ;) You can always ask a Mod+ if something is possible.

It can result in player's deaths, but they have to be aware of the risk of dying before playing.
