Hello everyone!!

Contest applications are now open for those who wish to apply for the
Double-World Building Contest. Applications will be open from now until
July 25th, when the contest begins. (no applications will be accepted
after the 25th).

The applications can be found at
http://www.awcommunity.org/awu/awunivab/abapply.htm

If you are planning to apply, please read over the application page
carefully before filling out an email application form.

This Summer's theme, once again, is "Castles." The plots in each
world will all be 6x6 H Scale (walk001h.rwx) Once you have chosen a
world that you want to have your entry in, you cannot change it, so be
sure and choose wisely!! :)

Yes, all builds within the AWTeen portion of the contest can be viewed
*after* the contest is over. However, entries that are within
AWUnivAB world can be viewed at anytime. The reason for this is,
since AWUnivAB is not a public world, all judges participating in the
contest are not able to enter until judging day for AWUnivAB, in which
then object selection and build are turned off and numbers are placed on
each build for the judges to critique. This prevents any form of
biased judging to take place and the contest is fair since the judges
have no clue who the builders are and their judgements are strictly on
the quality of the builds. Since this contest has a twist and AWTeen
is involved, contestants are prohibited to give out coords to the site
in AWTeen, because we cannot keep the judges from entering since it is
a public build world.

(probably more explanation that you wanted, but I figured the question
would have arose sooner or later) :P

That's going to be interesting, trying to keep all of the contestants
from giving out coordinates :D especially since it's AWTeen, and
someone's bound to stumble upon it when randomely exploring.

There will be a bot at each location. Judges will also state agreement
not to visit the AWTeen site if they happen to receive the coords
accidentally. If a judge is spotted at the location, by the bot,
before judging and before all object selection is turned off, that
specific judge will not be allowed to participate since they might have
already seen who made certain builds. Since this is in AWTeen as well,
we are keeping rules extremely strict to keep the judging fair by all
means possible in the long run.
