Whilst the theme was known to all during the sign up phase, the twist would only be revealed to builders on the first day of the competition.  Plots sizes were pre-determined and usually ranged from 16x16 to 30x30, depending on the theme/twist. Players were also given a shulker box on their plot to assist in resource gathering. This was their own to keep.  


Players are given a shulker box on their plot to assist in resource gathering. This is their own to keep.  
Judging was done after the final build date. And usually comprised of 5 players, a mix of Master Builders from the Build Team, and other players as deemed appropriate. As part of the judging process, the general public were allowed to vote as well. And the vote that received the most player votes received the “Players Choice” prize. Another favoured prize is that of the “Guest Judge”, which is often chosen by [[ReNDoG]] himself. The winner of this prize received the Rendog Banner and his ({{Player|Renthedog}}'s) player head.

This was their own to keep.

Judging was done after the final build date. And usually comprised of 5 players, a mix of Master Builders from the Build Team, and other players as deemed appropriate. As part of the judging process, the general public were allowed to vote as well. And the vote that received the most player votes received the “Players Choice” prize. Another favoured prize is that of the “Guest Judge”, which is often chosen by ReNDoG himself. The winner of this prize received the Rendog Banner and his (20.png Renthedog's) player head.
