September is finished, with birthday builds everywhere! We had some excellent builds last month, and it shows in the results, with so many players getting at least one vote. There was colour, presents and favourite things to do on your birthdays, so it was a lot of fun to explore!

We didn’t get any votes for the Builder competition this month. Although we did get a submission, the judges didn’t deem it to be related to the theme as we got no explanation on what it was. If you need to explain your build, please make sure you leave a lectern with a book explaining it!

Let’s take a look at the results for the main Emerald Points Competition.

1st Place: xp_0

XP is on a roll with this month, securing a second win in a row! XP explained to us that this build was about camping on his birthday. It was very well represented! Great job!

2nd Place: AuroraFifteen

Notching up another second place – that’s two in a row. was Auro’s build – full of colour and favourite things to do during a birthday! Nice work Auro.

3rd Place: Macaw333

Macaw went with wishing for a trip to Disneyland, as well as a few of her favourite things. That opening arch is excellent!

Well done to our three winners! We also had a massive seven honourable mentions this round!

The 121Survival Competition Prize Collection Point is housed in the cave under 121NewSpawn.

It will have protected chests for each player that won a prize – podium OR honourable mention. A new feature in this area are the lights. The light will be lit if you have a prize to collect. When you collect your prize, please turn the light off!

Please make sure you collect your items quickly, or you will risk losing them!

Term 3 is almost over – which means one thing. We’re almost in to October! October is a classic theme every year – Spooky! This is always a popular theme, and we’ve set the world to be permanent midnight too, so make sure the lighting is spooky…

Remember, each month counts in terms of points, so do your best, and make sure you finish your build! Votes tend to go towards builds that are completed.

The October Competition world gate – located in the Creative Lobby – will replace the September gate which will close to building at 9pm on Wednesday September 30th.

The gate will be open in the Creative Lobby on the morning of October 1st, so start planning!

• 2nd Prize: $100 JB HiFi Voucher
• 3rd Prize: $50 JB HiFi Voucher

August has wrapped up, and while we were a little delayed with the results this month, we nonetheless had some excellent entries! You all went crazy with the Cyberpunk theme, making some incredible entries! There were many entries that had so much to look at, we could have had an entire post just dedicated to images of these builds, so apologies if the best angle isn’t there. We did our best!

We’ll get to the builder competition after the main competition’s honourable mentions.

Let’s take a look at the results for the main Emerald Points Competition first.

1st Place: xp_0

Locking in a first ever win in a competition, xp_0 has designed a detailed city scene! We particularly liked the texture on the road and the vehicles. Well done xp!

2nd Place: AuroraFifteen

Auro decided to go with a busy city centre area by the looks of things, with loads of people around, making heavy use of the armour stands. Loads to look at with this one! Well done Auro.

3rd Place: Lellmon

Lellmon built a cityscape as well, but a more densely packed one, which really helped with the feel of walking around a bustling city! The various vehicles in this one were also very well done. A tough round to judge!

Well done to our three winners! We also had three honourable mentions this round.

Builder Creative Competition Results

To find out more about the Builder competition, read the post! It’ll also cover the rest of the Builder role.

1st Place: CopperJay

Copper locks in two wins in a row with a stunning SmallishBeans inspired build full of colour and nature! Great effort Copper!

2nd Place: Bannanaking220

Formerly known as MandLethLioreth, formerly known as MandLbuildinLior, formerly known as legocraftmlb (there’s been a few name changes), Bannanaking had his build revolve around a brilliantly decorated elevated rail and station. This was very nice to explore and see from all angles.

3rd Place: Smaug12345

Coming in third was Smaug with this interesting take on a minimalistic cyberpunk skyline on a dreary, foggy day. Unsure if this was completed or not, but it’s a cool concept!

We are flying through the year – each year it seems to go faster! The next month in the Creative Competition season is looming with the theme being another new one – Birthdays! We all have them, and we all like different things to celebrate them! It could be a special meal, gifts, a party, fun things to do. How do you celebrate a birthday? Let us know by building it!

Remember, each month counts in terms of points, so do your best, and make sure you finish your build! Votes tend to go towards builds that are completed.

The September Competition world gate – located in the Creative Lobby – will replace the August gate which will close to building at 9pm on Monday August 31st.

We’re a month into the second season for 2026, so it’s time for a fresh start with competition! We kicked off the season with the theme of Alien and we got a lot of awesome builds to check out! With a few of these builds making use of the entire build area it was a struggle to get the images in one frame, so apologies if the best angle isn’t there!

Also, good news – the Builder competition is back! We’ll get to the builder competition after the main competition’s honourable mentions.

Let’s take a look at the results for the main Emerald Points Competition first.

1st Place: Bennmc2012

Locking in second win in a row, Bennmc2012 designed some very interesting alien biomes with a spaceship hovering close by. These were really well done and a pleasure to walk through! The distinct colour blocks look great. Well done Benn!

2nd Place: Lellmon

Lellmon’s build was fantastic and very well detailed, featuring a massive sand worm coming out of the ground to eat a spaceship. This was really well done!

3rd Place: EnderKitty543

EnderKitty went with the classic alien trope – a UFO beaming up a cow in a field! I LOVED the scale difference with this one. It was great, and the cow inside is brilliant!

Well done to our three winners! We also had five honourable mentions this round.

1st Place: CopperJay

Copper came back strong with a very unique looking alien landscape, complete with a stunning looking crevasse down below. Nice work Copper!

2nd Place: _Herbss

Herbs went with a brick built version of Ben Quadinaros, the podracer pilot from Star Wars Episode 1. Nicely done!

We are now nearly a whole month into the first month of the new Creative Competition season, so the leaderboard is wide open! We’re continuing the season with another very exciting theme – Cyberpunk! Very popular at the moment with many MC Youtubers, this one should prove to be a fun one to build to, so get creative!

Remember, each month counts in terms of points, so do your best, and make sure you finish your build! Votes tend to go towards builds that are completed.

The August Competition world gate – located in the Creative Lobby – will replace the July gate which will close to building at 9pm on Friday July 31st.

Not just another competition round done, but a whole season! This was another great but hard one to judge. We got some excellent and well thought out mob shrines. We once again had a few battles for the podium positions. So without any further ado, it’s time to announce the results for the June Monthly Competition, and the results of the whole of Season 1, 2026!

Let’s take a look…

1st Place: Bennmc2012

Pretty new to LC, Bennmc2012 has scored his first win with an Aztec/Mayan temple inspired shrine to the axolotl! Underneath the large platform is a very picturesque lush cave environment, perfect for the cutest mob in the game. Well done Benn!

2nd Place: legofanatic212

Legofanatic212 went with the ever popular enderdragon, complete with some very nice stylized towers. We’re not entirely sure if this was finished or not, but it’s still pretty cool!

3rd Place: HatCatWolf1

HatCat returned to the server after a bit of a break to also build a shrine to the Enderdragon, this time encased in a rather fancy looking pyramid! This was a great looking build all around. Well done HatCat!

Honourable Mentions

This month we had four honourable mentions!
