| Hi all!
I have decided to run an Ice Sculpture Competition for the Server anniversary. The idea is, you make a Sculpture out of nothing but Ice and Snow, then send me screenshots of your creation by midnight GMT on 25/06/2013 and I will post them along with a poll on the 26/06/2013 for everyone to vote for the best one! (Lu, are you able to check that no one votes for them self? And do we have enough items in the confiscated gear for prizes?)
I have an Ice farm at my Farm House that everyone is welcome to use. Just go through my Iron Farm portal at the Nether Hub, but instead of taking the rail, just go down the stairs, and you can't miss it.
I have this one, that automatically pushes out ice, but it is really slow! [Only admins are allowed to see this link]
So this one is much better! You just silk touch all the ice and it automatically re creates the water source blocks. [Only admins are allowed to see this link]
And there is this handy little hut to afk in [Only admins are allowed to see this link]
I will also keep putting ice in the community chests at the nether hub whenever I can for anyone who doesn't have silk touch! So basically build an ice sculpture! It can be anything you want, a person, building, animal, abstract! As long as it is made of nothing but snow and ice, the only limitation is your imagination! And time! Remember, screenshots must be PM'd to me by Midnight GMT 25/06/2013. Anything after that will not be accepted! So have fun! |

| Oh and a couple of tips, use a Silk Touch Pickaxe in my Ice Farm, as it is made of wood and dirt, so a Axe or Shovel will probably break more than just the Ice!
Also Ice melts if the block next to it has a light level of 11 or higher from a source other than the sun! So no torches too close!
Post if you are gonna take part! |

| I have to admit this was alittle hard. Only 2 block types usable and they are both cubes. I like a challenge though. |

| Yeah, I thought it would make some interesting shapes. That's why I included snow! [Only admins are allowed to see this image] |

| Yeah, ice melts to though, so you need to make sure there are no light sources too close to the sculptures! 1.5 hours till deadline!! |

| I'll post the thread to vote on the ice sculptures when I wake up tomorrow, so you have about 8 hours to sneak in any late entries! |
