Well, I can't wait to see how this round end? Also, just 2 more days left til the round ends
But theres only 2 builds so whoever wins, wins overall. I don't think you can give away a full priced Minecraft code for a two-person contest. I reckon whoever wins can have a Terraria gift code and Noku should keep the Minecraft code for a later build-off, with more participants.

Noku, I think it is important to state the theme before people sign-up, perhaps say what all 3 rounds will be before it starts. Then people know what they need to do before they sign up so there is more chance of them staying in it until the end. Also, for the contest to run you should specify that there should be at least 6 participants.

I don't recommend that because it could cause the builders to get an early start which may not be wanted in the competition.

Other than that, I think other than giving away Minecraft gift-codes, maybe give something different each time so there may be more people joining the build-off to get the prize. I know I would join if it was a Terraria gift-code. or gmod...

The impossible can be possible if you yearn to achieve it. -MB
[spoiler]Practice is good but I'd like to say it is not everything. Some people hit a 'plateau' and they practice for hours and hours but they just don't seem to get any better. It is mental. Escape the fate. There is no destiny because you can make your own. Talent does not exist, or if it does I do not have it. There is no such thing as gifted. If someone can do it, if it's possible, I can do it. You and I can become infinitely better. Maybe natural talent does exist, but it really doesn't matter because i'll overcome it. Fuck talent, fuck biology, and fuck a diceroll. I want to be the best and I'll rise no matter what. It's this psycho attitude which makes me 'so good'. -Wonderland (tf2 pro soldier/rocket jumper)[/spoiler]

The build-off will be restarted due to a lack of people joining. As for the map, I will speak to bren about the map so it doesn't get deleted.

That's pretty cool, kesteve.
With only one completed themed build, I reckon Noku should save the Minecraft gift code for a bigger contest.

As the winner of this one-horse race, and as a consolation prize, would you like a Terraria gift code? It is through Steam, so you'd need that installed and signed up.

I would love one!! Steam's been installed already.

As for this competition. I am going to restart it later on through the week with a new name and everything. Details will be posted in the forums later on during the week.

Thread locked. And also, congratulations to kesteve for the only finished theme build.
