Well, I'm happy to introduce another version of the building contest: Build Battle V2.0!

What is Build Battles?
Build Battles is a monthly building competition organised by the Wiki, where you can participate and show off your building skills.

Who can Participate?
Anyone on the Wiki can participate: This includes all regular editors, editprotected users, moderators, etc.

Who judges this event?
The active administrators on the Wiki judge the event.

How does this work?
On a weekend, a topic for the battle will be posted; after which users have 24 hours to build. A submission thread will be launched on which users can post 3-10 screenshots of their build. Finally, a results thread will be announced within 1-2 weeks.

What are the Rewards?
Once a user wins the Build Battle, they get the following rewards for one month:
 * A colored username!
 * A "Build Battle Winner" tag on their profile masthead!
 * A special userbox to go on their profile!

Why is it V2.0?
This time around, we expect higher participation from users! The rewards are higher as well, and the builds will be based on a certain topic rather than a biome. This will allow for fair judging and better evaluation.

When does this start, by the way?
The contest is expected to start next weekend. Until then, we'll use this time to set up the necessary.

Well, I hope you're all excited for Build Battles, because we are! See you next week, when we officially start the event with the October Build Battle!

Peace!
