Kibo Competition V

Log into 120.buildersrefuge.com (version 1.20.2) and type /warp kibo to teleport to the contest.

• Contestants are recommended to add a short description about their project to the plot. This is not mandatory but greatly helps tell a story, which will affect your overall score. /plot flag set greeting <text>

• Contestants may add more info (links, text, etc) through the submission form below. This must be completed before the end of the contest and not after.

Kibo is an Organics community, and therefore organics will be a central theme to this contest; architecture may play a secondary role in your project. The greater portion (70%+) of your piece must be presented through organics. This must be clear in your contest plot and points will be deducted if the plot is overwhelmingly architecture based.

• 351x351 plot size (Contestants do not need to fill the whole plot completely, however it should be clear what space is used).

• Three (3) plots can be claimed. One for grading, the other two for asset creation.

• Solo Building only.

• All judging to be done in vanilla textures. Players may set the time, biome, or any other vanilla preset.

• The judging phase will start directly after the contest, and end within 10 days. The results will be posted in the Results tab at the bottom.

• Schematica, tracing or transferring of a pre-made build, block for block, is NOT allowed. All content submitted to the contest should be original, made only during the allotted build time using the tools provided on the Builders Refuge server.

Of Pen and Parchment

Players are tasked with recreating a character and/or scene from a physical book (fiction or non-nonfiction). Not only will your choice of written literature affect your design, but also how you incorporate the narrative of the story into your work.

The character and/or scene must be from a physical book of any written language. You may combine multiple books together, however it must be clear what part of the build you are basing the material off of. Comic books and manga are allowed, but they must have words and not solely be comprised of images (a wordless picture book is not allowed).

Technique

How well was the piece executed through design, composition and technique? How consistent is the technique? Does the artist show control of the medium?

Creativity

Does the piece show imagination, individuality, originality? Has the artist shown innovation? How has the artist's creative interpretation affected their implementation of technique?

Clarity

Does your piece convey a message or portray the theme clearly? How were aesthetics and practicality balanced? Does the artist show understanding of the theme?

Each category is worth 10 points, a total of 30 points per judge. 210 possible points are awardable from all seven (7) judges.
