in Build the Earth3 years ago (edited)

The Contest

The Build the Earth Construction Hunt is all about finding the best builds from the Build the Earth project. If you are participating in the project, you are welcome to submit one of your own builds! If you are not participating, I invite you to curate the wide selection of builds that are out there! You can find videos and photos from creators all across social media. Just make sure it is from the Build the Earth project (resources are included later in this article).

The object of the contest is to create an article that portrays one of these builds in a way that is attractive to viewers both outside and inside of the Steem ecosystem
.

Keep in mind that the quality of the build is important, but much more important is the quality of the article. The rewards will consist of:

1st Place - 50 Steem Power (and one $14 facebook ad)
2nd Place - 25 Steem Power
3rd Place - 10 Steem Power
All three posts will be resteemed to my blog

I reserve the right to not select winners if I do not deem the content adequate
I will be powering up the rewards to the winner's accounts

Facebook and other social media

In addition to this community, I have launched a facebook page for the Build the Earth community. I will be sharing the most attractive articles to that facebook page, and will be purchasing an ad for the 1st place article using a portion of the liquid portion of this article's rewards (the rest will go towards future ads and prizes). Please help me by following the page, and liking and sharing the posts.

The goal is to naturally reach people already participating in the Build the Earth project. So if you are using another creator's content from a different platform, it is required for you to leave a meaningful comment that informs them that you've decided to write about their build with a link to your article.

The Rules

  • Posts MUST be in decent English
  • Other information may be included to provide context and background to the build, but the topic of the post MUST be a Minecraft build in the Build the Earth project.
  • If a post discusses multiple builds, they should be related to one another (and to the Build the Earth project), and therefore cohesive in the flow of the article.
  • Posts MUST be at least 400 words
  • Posts MUST be well-formatted.
  • Posts MUST not use any offensive or vulgar language.
  • Posts MUST be in The Build the Earth Community.
  • Posts MUST be Steem exclusive.
  • Posts MUST link to information about the build being discussed, and full credit must be given to the actual builders.
  • Only one article per user can be submitted, and to be counted as a submission, a link MUST be commented on the pinned contest post for the week.
  • Submissions after 11am EDT on the Saturday after the contest launched will not be accepted, and the winners will be announced later in the day (or possibly later in the weekend).
  • (ADDED 5/22) Users MUST leave a comment on the original YouTube video or social media post informing the creator that they have included the material in their article with a link to the article. In addition to this, the comment should provide meaningful feedback to the creator that proves the user read either watched the video or read the post. A screenshot of the comment MUST be included in the comments of the user's post on steem for the post to qualify. In deciding the winners, the comment will now be judged in addition to the article.
