Whenever you are available. I will be doing one soon, maybe tomorrow. We'll have to agree to different times, and have to consider time zones.

The one thing, which is needed for you to compete, is a challenge idea (What you want to build).

I want to build an underground house my favorite and can we do it during the week. Maybe 12:00/noon with my place being in the Central Time zone.

How about we have a couple challenges a day for the entire week so if someone cant make it one day then they can make it the best. Also i think that you should make a list of stuff you can use.

it could be monday, teusday, and wensday.
And have each day be a different topic.
also could i be a judge except i wont judge mine and i would have to tell you my reasons for a low score.

You can use any block that is in the server. No restrictions..

And sorry, I didn't explain this fully. I will upload the videos to youtube, and you'll comment either "Vote Challenger 1" or "Vote Challenger 2", and I will count the votes myself to see who wins.

And yes, I like your couple of Challenges a week idea, sounds good, now all we need is the competitors.

EDIT: Do you have skype? And also this question is forwarded to anyone else who is interested in participating.

Can we still participate if we don't have it?

also i think the competiotion should be this monday 12:00/noon Central Time zone.

Posted: **Sun Dec 30, 2012 09:17**

Yes you can still participate if you don't have skype. But, if you do have it, we could do a voice quick build challenge, where you can hear both competitors, and they are generally better.

And yes, Monday would work for me.. So: 12:00 Central Time Zone/18:00 GMT and the build is Underground House! :D

Wait so do I have to make a video of me building or is it you cause i can still make a video. Also how are we going to find the arenas and is the floor of our build area gonna be gravel.

Posted: **Sun Dec 30, 2012 13:30**

Nope. I video myself building, and I entertain the audience whilst me building. Then when the time is over, I go around my build showing what it is then I go around your build, and if I can't work out what it is, i'll ask you to tell me, and explain it a bit.

There is one arena on VanessaE's server, really far away from the spawn and any other construction, all you have to do is fly to me and you'll find the arena. Each build is destroyed by me and the arena is re-done for the next competitor.

And no, that was just a sample picture of the arena, and it looks nothing like the final arena which I have built.

You can enter VanessaE's server at any time. Not sure what you really were asking..

could you tell me the size so i can plan what i want to build

Never mind. I found it. It is a good size.

obiewan the back end of your arena was empty underground so i filled it up do you mind i thought that it was not supposed to be there because it was not equal.

Posted: **Sun Dec 30, 2012 17:21**

Thanks for that, just checked and removed all the obsidian (-.-) underneath the arena and re-filled it. Did you do anything else?

no i was originally filling it with stone but it was taking way too slow so i used water and lava. also i think that you should make it all stone with the uppermost layer being grass because having dirt all underneath means more digging and less placing. and more digging and placing means less time to actually build what you want. Also can i reserve the spot in competition for tomorrow since i came up with the underground house idea.

"You are able to build in the air and go outside with your build, but not into the opponent's side."
can we build up but be connected to the ground and i am going to do something to your walls underground to tell people where the edge is.

Posted: **Sun Dec 30, 2012 17:41**

You can't build into your opponent's side, but you can build anywhere else, apart from the ground outside your area, but you can in the air. I'm on too, we can make adjustments now.

**Place reserved** Still 12:00/noon your time?

Posted: **Sun Dec 30, 2012 17:43**

yep noon tomorrow as in monday 12/31/12
and i will be on later backing up now and it is taking 12-20 minutes per backup

Update:

First challenge was aborted.. Aqua was lagging too badly and he had no way to do it, so elseran was put in his position, but Aqua wanted to record as well, and he took his time getting ready so elseran left.

Challenge vs. Jojoa is done! Exporting/Rendering it now and it should be uploaded somewhen today.

Uploaded it, but it was too long. Splitting into 2 parts today, and I'll have it up by tomorrow. :)

-------CLOSE THIS PLEASE----------

This hasn't been much success, so I've decided to tweak it. A new post with my new idea will be going up later.
