ANNOUNCING! The SkyBlock Survival Event!

The best survivor, gatherer, and builder will win Royalty Rank for a month, along with all the respect of winning a new take on an age old event!
TyrasEngineer and the Events Team will be hosting a SkyBlock Survival event on the Events Server for One hour where you have to do your best to fulfil all the requirements that are asked of you, as listed in the spoiler below. Simple? We'll let you decide on that.

To Sign Up: Leave a post in this thread with your promise that you will be there for the event. This is a Single Player event, and as such, people who do break these, will both be disqualified from the event. We have a basic setup of 15 plots, so sign up fast for the best chance to be in the event

To get to the event Server: Simply log into event.escapecraft.com

Rules
Spoiler! :
-You have only one life
-You are restricted to your cuboid
-You have 1 hour
-The nether is out of bounds
-If your trees give you absolutely no saplings whatsoever, one will be provided
-You have 3 strikes for breaking the rules. 1st strike is a verbal warning, 2nd strike is an out, and 10 points docked from the score. 3rd Strike is out of the whole event, plus some dependant on the severity.
-After the 1 hour, you will be given time to place ALL of your items in chests


Details
  • Complete as many of the achievements as you can, whilst staying alive, and within the hour.
  • The Event Server will only be open for the hour, anything outside of that is considered defunct. Build fast, and Build well.
  • Judges will pick the best three entries, as well as "honorable mentions" and will judge them on three things. Points Scored, Materials Gathered, and General aesthetic quality of the build, Bear in mind that while the Points Scored has a maximum of 150, the other two Catergories will have a points value of 75 each respectively, so making more than you need to look the business could be the decider between First and Second Place.
  • If you are late to the build, then you will still be allowed in, but you will still only have within the allotted hour to build, added to the fact, that you will lose out on potentially up to 15 points.
  • Staff for this event are: TyrasEngineer, M477h3w1012 , Steveab and Tanisjihanis
  • Judges for this event are TyrasEngineer, M477h3w1012 and Steveab .
Notice:
The Server will open 15 minutes before the start of the event to allow people to join and get ready.
The Events Server will be closed for judging at the end of the hour - You have ONE HOUR to do your stuff!

I'll give this one a go, sounds like fun. Probably just get my ass handed to me right away though XP Should be a consolation prize for last place XP

Keyboard situation's still kinda up in the air, so I'll reconfirm next Friday that I'll actually be available; if I don't reconfirm, or I confirm I won't be free, I relinquish my spot to someone else.

Meh. For those of you who want to know if it's even possible...
I have no idea.
Some of those things were made while my brain was suffering from debatable insanity...
Still, good luck and all.

Yes you can just go there and watch, but you will be restricted to the viewing constructs which surround the arenas.

I demand more room be added! I've never done the sky block challenge and think it'd be cool if I did it in an event rather than just single player. :-(
