The Arena Build Off
- Spleef
- Capture the flag
- Mob Arena
- PVP
Teams of up to 4 Players may work on one entry.
There are no Theme or Size restrictions for these Entries, let your imaginations run wild!
We're looking for creativity as well as functionality for these arenas!
More Details
Once the Build Off has come to a close, Stand out builds will be picked and then its up to the community to Vote on who the winner is!
The Arenas will be playable in Hub World for the Voting Process so that every arena is shown in its final form, it isn't just about the looks, also about how it plays!
The Build Off will open this Saturday and will run until the first Weekend of July.
Yaaay!
Does it need to be an arena for an existing game, or can we make up a new minigame?
You can talk to snow about that. If it's not usable with a working/updating plug in, or something that would work in vanilla we can't use it.
looking for a team of good builders to build a real cool arena!

Is it a mob arena, a pvp arena, or a spleef arena.
Also, will the top arena be the only one going in game? Or will all the top areans be going in different locations?
Your choices are
- Spleef
- Capture the flag
- Mob Arena
- PVP
If you have an idea for an arena of another game, you'll have to ask Snows about it.
1. What should we do if our builds require command blocks?
2. If our builds require a plugin to function, what should we do?
3. Will you still accept arenas after the contest is over?
Depending on how complicated the command blocks are, this can be arranged once the arena is actually built.
Show snow the plugin, assuming it's one that is frequently updated and works.
If they're good enough.
Arena's :D Although I still have to go to school and get a ton of homework... Only 2 more weeks though. Then I can join
If they're adding horses soon, where is the race track option also??
Just some more input. :)
Will you let us use mods like MCedit and Worldedit so we can make custom spawners, huge walls, and the like?
Spleef? Spleef? SPLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEF!
snow wont give world edit to any member due to it can be abused and MC Edit requires you need to download the map to your local game so it wont be on the server at all also you would need certian commands that you dont have nor ever will get
If they're adding horses soon, where is the race track option also??
If you want to take the chance of a stable horse racing plugin or can come up with a good setup that is more than just horses in an area where people can sit on them and run around, then a track for that might work. Although, pig racing never really caught on after carrots on sticks were released, so I'm not sure horse racing will either.

No. However, things like flattening the world so you can have a clear building space, staff will be allowed to do for you.
Can e have multiple entries?
Teams of up to 4 Players may work on one entry.
Each player can only work on one entry. So, player 1 can't build with players 2-4 *and* players 4-8.
:O Yay! Last time I didn't enter because I just knew about it about 3 days before the due date but know I can enter! :D
Do you have a plug-in for spleef matchs? Can the spleef have multiple layers?
Was also wondering about capture the flag and PVP. Do we need to ready the classes for PVP (Like Tank, Pyro, etc.). And how does Capture the flag work?
Thanks
For spleef, we have a plugin that regenates the area after giving them a shovel. So an arena made of snow blocks over a pit with water/lava in it works best. the snow can be more than one level.
For Pvp, you don't need to get the classes and that sort of thing ready, we can do that at the end.
For capture the flag arenas, you need a flag area for each team, and a spawn area for each team. Preferably not in the same exact spot so people can't sit and camp at a flag they spawn at. Also i would recommend not having a way to get up into the spawn area once you leave it, so people can't go in there and camp.
Can the spleef have multiple layers?
Just make sure its functional and fun. Try not to make it take too long, as most spleef matches are quick.

Just make sure it's fun for players. :)
Disregard the question about spleef. I'm going capture the flag.
What should I do when I'm done with the build?
Sorry if I ask obvious questions, never done a build off.

Just make sure your build is pretty and looks good. We'll be choosing the builds that stand out and the ones we think will be enjoyable for our users. For CTF, make sure to put markers down for the flags (usually red and blue wool) and spawn areas where people can't get back in.
When you're done, just make sure you made it the best you can. An admin(s) will work with you to provide the plugin(s) you need.
some questions about a capture-the-flag arena:
1. will it be PvP, so the winning team would be in most cases the ones who fighted the best, or should it have a technical solution for the flagging? Or ist this my decision?
2. How many Players should i plan, f.e. for the spawning points?
3. Will we get extra flat places for developing like in the last comp? And are we all developing in the same area? (Spying and/or inspiration)

I have one question too. How many arena's can be picked?
@Prod Theres no set amount
@Lev Its all up to you (: Ask a staff for a flat arena on the map
Considering I wont be around when the event comes to a clase, my arena's coords are X:360 and Z: 280. if I have those coords wrong just swap the 3 and the 2. :P
I would try but iam ban
and you're staying banned, as Yenwood said.
WoM Coins: 1644
yaaay teamwork.
