Theme Thanksgiving.
As a non-USA/Canadian citizen who hasn't witnessed a Thanksgiving celebration, other than a turkey what things or activities are normally associated with it?

Sorry didn't put much thought into the theme.

We can change it to something more universally known.

Your comment confuses me.
Should the next build off be doors or bells?

Perhaps the bells are for a Christmas theme? The festive season will be upon us soon.

it was a "the wizard of oz" reference

But if I can chose I team, it would be Landscapes

I need landscapes to my project, so if we could make a building contest for that, it would be great.
It could be: Mountain landscape, swamp landscape, forest landscape, sand landscape, demon landscape or floating landscape!

First off, congrats on your win Buttler!

Second, doing more builds in the future would be fairly enjoyable. If we need a topic for one before Christams, how about:

*  Colors of Fall
*  Fall (in general)
*  Winter
*  Thanksgiving (I'd also vote for it despite it being an American holiday. Bren, you could build a food display, and family gathering, or go back to the history and build events leading up to the first thanksgiving in America. This could be the ship taking the pilgrims, the old pilgrim town, a landscape with corn, or the first thanksgiving banquet.)
"The unexamined life is not worth living." ~ Socrates

Sow a thought, reap an act;
Sow an act, reap a habit;
Sow a habit, reap a character;
Sow a character, reap a destiny.

@Kesteve: Thanks!

If we need a theme, we could always just do "Harvest Festival", since Thanksgiving is really just America's version of an old world tradition.

I was thinking the exact same thing.

Ok New Contest.  I'll make a new map and warp later today.  Runs until November 30th.  Prize will be a collection of indie games to be redeemed on Steam. 

Theme will be (American) Thanksgiving but with a landscape.

I'll type more info on a new post later.
