Building Competition
Occurring multiple times annually, the Shire Building Competition is a server wide competition where players are challenged to build within a certain theme that was decided by the staff or community. Some of the themes the Shire has had in the past are: sci-fi, epic libraries, high fantasy, and many more.
With the judging processes, it begins with a panel of staff members who score and calculate the points for each build, alongside with a public vote in order to determine the winner of the building competition. The building competition builds are judged on multiple aspects; the theme, detailing, creativity/uniqueness, palette, and its overall effect are looked at and scored.
The Shire Building Competitions also come with specific rewards for the top placements! Depending on the number of participants, 1st, 2nd, and 3rd are all able to receive a prize for their participation in the building competition. These winners will be able to select a prize and have access to a certain command, some commands that we offer are Voxel Lite, NPCs, and etc. Winners may also request a specific mod which will be reviewed by the staff.
