How do I win these great Linux games?


I am glad you ask, other by a secluded mountain lies a not so well hidden secret, Linux Land. You can find Linux Land around about these coordinates:
X:-300
Z:1260
Its a fairly big place you wont miss it just head in that direction :D So anyway part of the purpose of Linux Land is mini games that people on the server can play. So the basic point of the competition is to build the best mini game at Linux Land, follow the rules/guidelines below.

. Server Info 
. Only games can be entered no other type of structure
. Linux Land is big but not infinite keep your builds below 10x10 (can be larger underground, unless it effects other builds)
. You must build on the stone checkered floor (or where it was if you need to dig it up)
. Leave space in between builds so people can get about
. If you cant find a space I will build you one
. Any questions at all contact me with a private message or any other way you like (YouTube etc)
. The end date is open ended as I may allow extra time depending on what people are doing for now I will say by the end of the month.


GOOD LUCK AND MAY THE BLOCKS BE WITH YOU

I cant wait to see what you build :D

Wow 10x10 doesn't sound much. It will be tough to build what i wanted. I definitely have to start at bedrock ^^ 
SteamPenguin 12 Aug 2013
I may make size limit negotiable if you contact me and explain why, its just I need to keep this fair and obviously I want room for everybody. I would be on right now helping everyone but I am working on something big I might post on the forum soon.
killx_den 12 Aug 2013
Well let me try it first then I will tell you if it is enough ^^

I definitely understand that everyone needs a space to build :> 
Also I still have room from the bottom to the top right ;)
SteamPenguin 12 Aug 2013
Yeah bedrock to build height limit is all good :D

Me and Paperjon are the same person lol, I said to ask here so you can explain in detail and give me the dimensions you need etc, I need to make this fair as possible.
EliteGamerShadow 12 Aug 2013
and paperjon I ... ummmm... forgot about the wood .... I needed a lot!! also can I have like 6 redstone lamps
EliteGamerShadow 12 Aug 2013
ok I will try to give the dimensions, ill plan it out... And is there an easier way to get to Linux Land :( I cant travel all the way there its too far
SteamPenguin 12 Aug 2013
There is a road from spawn to Linux Land also once your there you can teleport to your home and back.To get to spawn for the road use /spawn then follow the road underneath the spawn building, once at Linux Land you can use /home to get home and /back to return to Linux Land. I may make a rail system on the road soon. As for supplies I might be able to come on and give you them soon but im not sure sorry busy day.

@EliteGamerShadow:
Do you need the underground part of your space. 

If not can I use that to make my "mini game" bigger? I would just need the underground part.

@SteamPenguin:
Would it be possible to get the free space next to him, if he is ok with it?


Also, is it allowed to build a mini game where you can die? From falling damage or lava for example. I would definitely put up a warning sign in front of my mini game :>

If he is ok with it thats fine :D
Yeah your mini game can be deadly thats fine but signs are a good idea :D
EliteGamerShadow 13 Aug 2013
Lol this is what the sign is gonna probably say ...
============
Warning!Warning!
Possibility of Death

EliteGamerShadow 13 Aug 2013
Steam I need redstone lamps if that's ok and I planned it out so 30 x 25 would be a good space..... if not 30 x 20
EliteGamerShadow 13 Aug 2013
I need red and blue wool too if you have it :D

Are you looking to expand the prize pool via community donations? If so, I might have something of use; if not, then ignore this post.

I don't have any actual games, but I do have an unused beta key to Dawngate, a new MOBA which will be free to play when released. Dawngate won't run on Linux (at least not initially) but I figured it couldn't hurt to offer.

If you're interested I can PM the Key to you.
