((Gonna postpone this until 3.0 and the server and everything stabilizes some more. Any submissions from 2.0 will carry over when 3.0 boots up.))

*Some thick--and slightly dirt-spotted--parchment "magically" appears on the "famous" halfling bulletin board just outside the Drunken Sheep Inn.*

Greetings me fellow halflings!

Over the next few Elven weeks there’ll be a burrow design contest running. Ol’ Faldo will be baking goodies for the fellow with the best design and some fancy shovels will also be given aways to the three best designers.

Now, fer the contest parameters:

Death's first design

On the upside it's a compact bilbo style rounded rooms home with plenty of storage and an open feel

The downsides of this hole include the bad decorating and the fact it's very monotonous to look at

Sorry for the awful video quality it wasn't even laggy at the time of recording. This is only my first design and I'll probably be altering it.

((Hm... This shall be fun, and I hope that it will make the Vale more active again (Unless of corse it has been active alot since I took a small absence).))

[ΩMercenΩ 67]

((New name coming))'s Submission Number One

Designer: ((new name coming))

Submission: Futuristic burrow!

This is something I made a while back, and unfortunately I've lost the world file so can't go back to it and take default texture pics, and edit the ugly inside, oh well. If I can't enter this because of that, then disregard this.

Burrow!
