Minecraft Contest!

Discussion in 'Creation Station' started by Vero, May 8, 2012.

  1. Here is what I suggest. A Minecraft contest. It would be judged by everyone by a poll. We would just put pictures of our structure, building, man made lake, etc and people would vote for their favorite. Maybe we could start with a specific thing like "log cabin" or "best looking mine".

    So what do you guys think?
     
  2. It's obvious who would win; the people who have so much time on their hands that all they do is devote to Minecraft.

    UNLESS, you're willing to make it a one-month competition where a compilation of pictures can be gathered in that timespan, allowing people who haven't the time to go on for hours placing blocks to be able to at least get something in.
     
  3. Sounds interesting, but I'm uncertain as to the amount of people that would participate.
     
  4. Id go ahead and join, although the one month thing would be good. Also shouldnt this be in "Misc Conjectures"?
     
  5. I guess once we get enough people or something we would put this there. I myself would participate once we get everything organized and planned. I am also agreeing with the one month time limit and have pictures as a type of way to make sure someone is actually building the thing instead of already having it.

    Talking about a thing to build, what should we try to build? It could range from just a cool looking house to pool, or even a house with a pool. And of course, other people can also put up ideas on what we should build too.
     
  6. Out of curiosity -- would it be done on Survival or Creative?
     
  7. I would suggest that we would do it on survival mode, unless specified otherwise. For if everyone did it on creative it would probably only take a few days and not be as fun. But that is up to debate some would say. So for the most part, I would say survival.
     
  8. Im good with doing it on survival :D, Suggestion for the first topic.... EPIC TOWERS :D
     
  9. I understand your concern, but that came off as extremely condescending. It reminds me of the YouTube commenters who rove around amazing videos and scream "THE CREATOR HAS NO LIFE".

    That said, I'd gladly join!
     
  10. So I think we have enough people to start the contest now. So we need the thing to build and as Cid said
    I am up for some epic towers, but if anyone else has an idea then you better voice it before the contest starts.I am thinking we should start the contest on May 15 and end on June 15. That should give everyone enough time to build whatever we choose. If anyone has a problem please voice your concern. On a different note, do you want to have everyone who is participating to play on survival?
     
  11. Treehouses would be fun too (Though I suppose they're really similar to towers... And probably just as dangerous too!)(that, and I just started my own treehouse... Though all I have is a platform atm...)

    I wouldn't mind towers though ~
     
  12. Treehouse is agreed over here :D

    I'm perfectly fine with that chiz as well.

    Survival is more than epic. I'm up for it ^^
     
  13. I really had a big long post that took around ten minutes, but as I was away for about thirty seconds to heat up some food in the microwave, my chihuahua stepped on my laptop and erased it all :(

    But here is the basics of what I said. The vote for what we are building is favoring Treehouse at the moment, three to one actually. As for status updates, we should use the screenshot (F2) and upload it onto ZEJ every so often. So that leaves the question, does everyone know how to upload the image onto ZEJ and know how to find the screenshot?


    ImageShack-I use this place to upload, even though my computer says there is some problem sometimes.
     
  14. If anyone doesn't know, I'll say it here. First of all, what you need to do is go into "run" on your computer -- in XP, it should be an option on the right side of the start menu, and in Vista and 7, you can just use that search bar in the start menu. Anyway, now that you are in run, you need to type "%appdata%" (without the quotation marks of course). This will take you to your roaming folder. Now, the first folder you see in this should be titled ".minecraft". You need to go into that folder. All your screenshots will be in the screenshots folder.
     
  15. Meh alright, treehouse it is. Ive never really built a successful treehouse before is the problem.... Ill try my best at it though! :D

    (One question, is timber mod alloud?)
     
  16. I think this can safely be moved on over to Creation Station, so I'll be doing that now.

    On the other hand, while I know very little about Minecraft, how easy would it be for someone to host a server for all ZEJians to play on collaboratively? Seems like it could be a fun little thing for everyone who has Minecraft to do, and possibly an incentive for others to get the game, seeing the works that come together in the cyber-world of ZEJ?
     
  17. It involves a VERY high internet speed connection, also you have to port forward the port 25565 to beable to set up a server, thats about it though.
     
  18. I guess I should show all the pics of my progress ~

  19. I would swear if I wanted to, but oh my gosh...

    Well the Minecraft contest has started people, so let's get crafting!
     
  20. Gonna just say that I may have finished my treehouse. I kinda prefer it being simple and all. If you want to see what it looks like, I've added more pics of it to my gallery. Here are some overview pics of it. If you want pics of certain areas, look in my gallery.

    EDIT: Nevermind, just look in my gallery. I can't get links to the pics separately for whatever the heck reason.
