That's right we're bringing back the old Chunk of the Month competition! Each month you get the opportunity to submit a chunk you own to be reviewed in our contest, we're looking for creative, interesting and well-designed plots according to a monthly theme! You can find out about the previous winners at Noobs.town/cotm/ (https://www.noobscraft.com/cotm/).

I know a number of you have probably joined since we stopped doing this, and it's changed slightly so be sure to read how this works:

It's very simple to take part, just use /cotm submit and post a reply to the monthly topic :D.

A few rules:

The winner of each month will earn themselves:

Plus everyone who takes part will receive a participation prize and a free wilderness chunk (again irrespective of if you built in the Town world).

Just a note of a few changes since the last time we ran this contest (https://www.noobscraft.com/events/chunk-of-the-month-december/msg80976/#msg80976):

Got any questions? Just ask them below in a reply or in-game!



As for this month's theme! We're going to start it off again with a general building contest to see who can build the best Tree House!

The theme is: Tree Houses; take from that what you want to, it could be an actual tree house, a house made of trees, trees on a house, just the theme is Tree Houses, we'd love to see what you can build!

How do I visit pidgeots build? /visit podgeot cotm?
Don't have to use your visits. Ummm, did I miss that we now had more than 1 visit we could set?

I remember one of the early COTMs where you could click on the submission on the website and you would tp there in game. Except there was a glitch in the way the server saw my name and Craftymatt13OH. I would click on the entry, and she was teleported but she had no idea what had happened. Lots of panicked yelps came from her that night as I bounced her from entry to entry.  3:)

Glad COTM is back!

You can't visit his chunk at the moment as part of this competition (unless he sets his actual visit there :P), if you want to see what his submission looks like you'll have to go hunting for it or ask him. If you read the post above it does explain this is no longer using the /visit commands, it has nothing to do with that now.

There is currently no way to sneakily check on his design; think of your own ideas. If a player wants you to be able to visit their submission they can easily set their visit in the same spot, or could post the coordinates, etc.

Don't have to use your visits. Ummm, did I miss that we now had more than 1 visit we could set?
If you read the post it does explain that you now submit using /cotm submit and by posting a reply here, it has nothing to do with /visit anymore. You can still only set 1 visit, this hasn't changed anything to do with how the visiting system works.

As explained above we're no longer using the /visit commands, the entries which are currently listed on the Noobs.town/cotm/ (https://www.noobscraft.com/cotm/) page are now almost 2 years old, so the buttons were removed as to hopefully avoid confusion.

I built & submitted a tree house in a grand old tree that Rainbow Rabbit lives under.  The trees roots are watered from the spring of life that it protects underground.
