This server has been around for about a year now and we have some truly epic builds scattered about in various worlds. Over the next two months I'll be digging through every single world and documenting the best creations. A few weeks before New Year's Eve, these will be sorted by rank and a poll will be created for each group. On New Year's Day the polls will close and the BEST BUILDS OF 2011 WILL BE ANNOUNCED!
This can be done with just screenshots on a forum post, but I would really like to put a copy of these builds into new showcase-type worlds. If we can get BestOfMember, BestOfRecruit, and BestOfBuilder created as 512x512x196 worlds, that should be plenty of space to cram in all the epic building that's gone on this year. After winners are decided, I'll build little trophies next to the winning builds :D
(Guest builds won't be considered because there will be 400 Guest worlds by then. Crafter builds won't be considered because there just aren't enough of them and it's pretty obvious the Statue of Liberty will win)

Seems like a bit of work for you.

I imagine it would be around 50-100 builds total. Probably 20-30 hours of work total. Not really all that bad spread over 2 months.
-
Have fun! cant wait to see the outcome! :o
-
This sounds like a great idea, let me know if u need any help with it.
-
This sounds totally awesome :)
Can I give you a bribe reward for your work? :P
Good luck!
And go my dragon!
-
Very nice.. Great idea..
I hope to see one of mine inside..:P
I can't wait for the results..
-
Well i hope you can succeed at this probably long long task... i hope one of my builds gets chosen too but yeah nothing is sure ;) oke so good luck!

IDEA: Have a world called BestBuilds or something.
Then have many boxes with titles (Builder5 for example) and put the best build of builder 5 in it. Only problem is if you pick massive builds :/

That kinda goes against the intent of this. I want the builds to be noticed entirely on their own quality, not the world they happen to be from.

Oh, possibly I miss-understood. Are you going for the best build in each world, or what you think is good (Some in some worlds, none in others etc.)?
-
I am really looking forward to the results. Good luck!
-
Sorry, but I have a question.
Can crafters create new worlds?
-
No, only admins and optical can create new worlds.

The best by rank. I'll look at all builds from all Member worlds and pull the best. Doesn't matter which particular Member world they're from. The idea is to get all the great builds in one spot. No particular quota either, just going to fill the worlds up until they're full.
-
Nice Idea :D
-
Good luck son.
-
Can I have my Obstacle Coarse on there? :P
-
dont we have the sprite/building/object showcase world for that?
-

Yes and no.
We have some showcases with a few things in there, but there has never been a substantial effort to review every single build on the server. My project will truly show what has been done on the server.
-
And you will have time to op, build (crafter) and review builds?

Things tend to be a bit quieter later at night, not hard to multitask.

Okay, best of luck again :) Just checking you had planned for this.
-
nice idea and good luck :)
-
Are you also gonna list sprites? (I was wondering because you don't build sprites, you create/coppy them)
-
This would be a nice idea for a "Best of..." Opticraft :)
Good luck with this, Lumin ;)
-

Could, but all the good sprites are already in worlds specifically for sprites... plus some of them are absolutely massive and wouldn't even fit. But the ones that are in member/recruit/builder sure :)

The only sprites that will go in there will be MrMonkey's and Toxicstriker's since they are the best sprite makers.
-
I'd like to see one of my buildings here :P :3
-
Good luck and I hope I am not last!
-

You might be.
-
Good luck mate ;)
-
I would be last ><
Or at least until 18 Nov. Then I will keep building in classic to get builder, then operator.
-
Well Good Luck to all that are participating in the "Best Build of 2011".
-
seems tough to alone, good thing some people wanna help
-
Well, without the zones to put the projects in, this project will be kinda lame. Still no word on whether or not those zones will be made.
-
You are wrong statue of libery will be blown out the window like a napkin on the table from Notre Dame. And there are more epic stuff from crafters(99% of everything they do actualy :D). Looking forward to results too.
-
You could save memory space in a world by putting all the low heights and width together, and the tall and wide in one seperate world. Simply outlining the build in yellow, green, purple would be suficient for the rank. The name however, idk how to help on that part. Wall maybe?

Huge necropost here, I know, but I actually like this idea, and the new lobby has lots of space for portals, so it would be nice to have some portals to big project worlds again. I'd like to pick up this idea as I'm not quite ready for another big build but do have enough time on my hands.
-
awesome on picture but when i look at it in game dosent seem like much :/

I'm down to help if you pick this up.

Thats why you are operator and not crafter, you canot even start to imagine how hard is it to do. And what part of it doesnt seem like much, cus i cant understand that one.
On topic: I almost forgot about this topic there. Its nice one and if its completed it will be even nicer. I could help with it too if something is needed.

lumi disappeared, so this project died.
I was really looking forward to this as well, but it cant be helped.
