Big City Big Build

A series of server build contests held in order to showcase the building ability of the community, as well as expanding Big City (now known as Monarch), the server's main city project. The winners received prizes such as in-game money, items, and codes for Steam games.

History

The first contests were held by _specialk, and took place over a period of 2 or 3 days, generally on weekends. Specific plots were laid out in the then Big City map for contestants to create their entries, leading to large areas of the city being constructed over a short space of time.

During 2013, Ouhai_Ruby took over running the contests, and several were held between 2013 and 2015. These contests were a longer format, with no set area for builds to be completed in. Instead, contestants were instructed to build their entry in the server's Creative map, and include the co-ordinates of their build within their entry post.
