I applied to the VoxelBox and got in. (As I'm told, 25% acceptance rate) I whipped up a pretty damn good build, interior and all, and was told to build something else.

To give you perspective:




Boy oh boy am I pissed right now!

I am having a Voxel-Rage-Quit right now

[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]

I named it a "Party House" and they pretty much tore it apart. I had to add a bar, restrooms, and stripper poles. That still wasn't good enough. They are impressed by the exterior, but hate the interior, so whatever.

This could only mean one thing... VoxelBox = place for god-like builders!

It seems to me they like really over-done interiors. I prefer a minimalist design.....

I'm no good at decorating the insides of houses...

They are definitely good trees, but i was afraid they would want more. Take their advice, build a huge tree and put a house or something inside the trunk.
