Rules
- Deadline for submission is December 31st, 11:59PM CST - Anything submitted after the deadline will not be given consideration!!!!
- Post all of your screenshots in the 2024 Christmas Decoration Contest Forum post to submit. Only post contest submissions in this thread. Keep in mind we do NOT judge the pictures. We will be judging your house in person on judgement day. It is recommended that you keep all deco in place until we call the winners.
- One submission per player on each shard. If you play on both Overdrive and UOF, you can submit a house for each shard.
- Post the (X,Y) Coordinates of your house in your post. We will visit each one in person on judgment day. If we can not visit your house, then we can not judge it. Pleeease do NOT submit with sextant coords.
- This is a decoration contest, please include some form of decoration. Creativity with custom housing is nice, but decorations are a must!
- Any entries that are a copy of previous entries, or copied from a website will not be accepted.
- Staff built and/or decorated houses are not eligible for the competition.
- WE WILL BE JUDGING ALL AREAS OF THE HOUSE! Utilize your space to the best of your ability. Yes, even cellars.
- We will only judge actual houses. If you are submitting a house on a private island that allows decoration outside the plot, please note we will only judge based on the house itself.
A Few Tips for Success
Have a theme to your entry. Example: Pirate themed, gingerbread house, Nightmare Before Christmas, Home Alone, ect. You can also choose to tell a story with the decor. Whatever tickles your fancy! Just make sure it’s Christmas related!
Have a story in your submission post. You don’t need to write a New York Times best seller. Just some kind of write up that explains your designs choices.
Use your space wisely! We judge based off of the ENTIRE house. not just one area. If an area seems to be lacking in sections it will hurt your score. The same is true for over doing it. It will hurt your score if it looks like a box of random Christmas deco exploded all over your house. Quantity<Quality
Small details can make a big impact. Creative use of ordinary items in ways not normally used can easily impress the judges.
Winners
First – Evil Galad
Second – Nadder
Third - Wishart
