To bring in the Christmas Holidays, we’ve brought a Fair to LibraryCraft! The Medieval Fair is home to a selection of vanilla minigames and it’s open right now!
The minigames on offer are:
an Elytra course
a Boat race track
Archery challenge
Hide and Seek in the massive castle, and
Medieval Parkour!
Parkour is the only one that is controlled by a plugin – the rest are vanilla only, with everything being BYO – bring your own boat, elytra, bows and arrows. It’s inventory linked to 121Survival.
If you can think of any other vanilla games you’d like to see on this world, let us know! The gate to it is at the south end of 121Spawn.
It’s December now, which means holidays, Christmas, and plenty of food and relaxing! It’s been a big year and everyone deserves a good amount of downtime. To bring in the holidays, it’s time to announce the winners of the November competition, when you guys went Disney on us! We had some more beautiful and very clever builds this time around, so keep reading to find out who got those all important votes!
As always, 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: Kyletendo
Another month with another first competition win, Kyletendo went with the classic Disney Castle, and he did an amazing job at quite a small scale! A massive well done Kyle! You had a lot of people talking about this one.
2nd Place: FantasticFun
Also going quite big was FantasticFun with Prince Eric’s Castle from The Little Mermaid. This one looked pretty spot on Fan, well done!
3rd Place: WoodyToucan
Going a little more off book from the classic Disney animated movies, but still definitely Disney, Woody decided to build a scene from the cult classic Cool Runnings! Really well done Woody, this was a great option.
Well done to our three winners! We also had one honourable mention this round.

With one of the best builds of the year, Smaug went with Moana and the massive Te Ka. This was spectacular!

Well done everyone!

It’s the end of the year already! We’re a week away from December, and a month away from Christmas, so like we have done a number of times in LibraryCraft, we’re asking you to build your best Christmas related builds!
Remember, each month counts in terms of points, plus there’s the Builder Rank Competition too – the GOLD bordered plots are for Builders only – do not claim these if you are not a builder. If you do, we will clear them without warning, regardless of whether there’s builds on it or not.

The gate will open in the Creative Lobby on the morning of December 1st, so get thinking about your build!

Each month the Emerald Points are tallied up and can be seen in the Emerald Hall on the Survival Lobby world.
At the end of the season (June and December), the grand prizes are awarded to the final top three Emerald Points winners from across the 6 months of competition. This season we’re giving away:
1st Prize: $250 worth of LEGO! It’ll be in the form of a LEGO store voucher, sent online. Nice and easy!
2nd Prize: $100 JB HiFi Voucher
3rd Prize: $50 JB HiFi Voucher
The parallel Builders Creative Competition will be judged at the same time, with the overall winner each season getting a $50 JB HiFi voucher.
We’re nearing the end of the year, so it’s time to get another school holiday social session planned!
It’s the biggest holiday break of the year, so it should be a lot of fun. There’s already players excited about having one. On to the details!
Where: Fremantle Library When: Wednesday 22nd January, 2 – 5pm Cost: FREE! Bring: Just yourself! We’ve got the board games and some laptops, but if you have your own laptop ready to go, bring it along.
As always, please tell us in a mail or in Discord if you plan on coming so we can get an idea of how many people to expect.
It’s crazy to think that we’re almost in December! Before we get to that though, we need to announce the winners of the October Gods & Goddesses competition. We had some stunning builds this time around, so keep reading to find out who got those all important votes!
As always this year, 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: FantasticFun
Getting his first competition win, FantasticFun went all out with the big three – Zeus, Poseidon and Hades. These characters are just brilliant, and the terrain around them is excellent. A massive well done Fan!
2nd Place: Kyletendo
Giving himself a bit more of a challenge, Kyle went and built Zeus, but on a diagonal! This one looks excellent. Those lightning bolts are great!
3rd Place: RoseBlossom_
Rounding out the podium, Rose has come in with something a little different to a character build, opting for a scene revolving around Thor’s hammer, Mjolnir. That hammer design is stunning!
Well done to our three winners! We also had two honourable mentions this round.
Enderkitty543

Last year was Disney’s 100th anniversary and while we didn’t do it then, there’s no reason why we can’t do it now! Plus there’s a few other Disney related anniversaries – 35th for The Little Mermaid, and 30th for The Lion King! To celebrate we’re wanting to see your best Disney related builds!

The 121Survival Competition Prize Collection Point is housed inside the large greenhouse just at the west end of 121Spawn.

We’re happy to announce that the 1.21 Survival Trade Hall is now open for business! We’re going a little bit different this time around, but it’s sure to still be a lot of fun.
To be a part of it you’ll need two things:
1x Shopkeeper Egg (1 Diamond Block)
1x Shop Plot (FREE)
The shopkeeper eggs can be purchased from the villager’s stand by the front gate of the Trade Hall. You’re limited to one Egg per player. While it is possible to purchase more, they won’t be able to be used, so you’re just wasting a diamond block – there’s no refunds. When you hold the egg, it will give instructions in chat what to do. Make sure you read them carefully. The shopkeeper will also be selling invisible item frames – 2 diamonds for 16.
Once you have an egg, grab a plot – just like claiming a plot in the Creative competitions, right click a sign. You will need to make sure you have the appropriate amount of diamonds in your inventory. There’s two options:
A pre-made stall in the centre – these are smaller and perfect for those players that don’t want to build a fancy shop, but rather want to pop down a chest and a shopkeeper with minimal decoration. We ask that if you choose one of these, you only make minimal changes to the stand itself. Please do not remove it entirely! If it is changed completely, we will ask you to change it back.
Note that the centre podium in the image above will be for the Dragon Slayer statue.
Larger storefronts are also available for those that want a bit more room. The interior of these is able to be built up, however the existing structures (interior walls and roof) can be modified on request. The outside shopfront can have a sign or two added if you ask nicely too. These won’t be able to be done by you, but JohnsanGeezo can assist with this, as long as you provide the parts!
Importantly, by choosing these ones, you’re agreeing you’re going to put in a bit of work into decorating it! This is not the option for a chest and shopkeeper. If we need more plots, more will be created underground.
You can only get one plot. If you are caught with more than one, it will be removed without warning or refund.
To assist with your decorative needs, the first shop is now open for business! Johnsan is able to be hired to do Custom Armour Statues for a fee. This is the same mod that Hermitcraft uses in Season 10, so there’s a lot more options when it comes to sizes! These are available for shop plots and base builds. More information is in store too.
LibraryCraft has been busy with the introduction of 121Survival, but we’re still going with these! During October we’re asking you to build something themed around Gods and Goddesses. They can be Greek, Norse, whatever mythology you choose. Let us know with a sign on the corner of your plot with your chosen god or goddess.
Remember, each month counts in terms of points, plus there’s the Builder Rank Competition too – the GOLD bordered plots are for Builders only – do not claim these if you are not a builder. If you do, we will clear them without warning, regardless of whether there’s builds on it or not.
The October Competition world gate – located in the Creative Lobby – will replace the September gate which will close to building at 9pm on Monday September 31st.
The gate will open in the Creative Lobby on the morning of October 1st, so get thinking about your build!
Prizes will be awarded in 121Survival from now on – podium players might even score an elytra from the Megacrate!

In all the craziness of 121Survival being released, we forgot to post the results of August’s Impossible Creatures competition!! So who won? Read on!
As always this year, 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: ZacWild5
Getting two wins in a row, Zac created the Gocaw – a Goat and Macaw hybrid.
Location: Africa During the Winter, the Gocaw uses the strength of a goat to create warm dens and collect food high in the mountains. During the Summer, it uses it’s Macaw wings to migrate to colder areas of the continent. This is because the Gocaw cannot survive in hot temperatures due to its adaptation to cold environments. What you see in the image before you is a Gocaw about to take off for his Summer migration.
Very creative and well thought out Zac!
2nd Place: RoseBlossom_
Getting back to back to back 2nd place! Nice Rose!
Whilst looks may deceive, the icy dragon/falcon has taken the predatory mind of the falcon and the scaly exterior of a winged beast and loves to hoard gold and make nests up high.
The decorations were lovely!
3rd Place: EnderKitty543
Rounding out the top three again, EnderKitty went with a smaller build, although no sign was left, so we aren’t sure what combination it is!
Well done to our three winners! We also had fourhonourable mentions this round.
Kyletendo
WoodyToucan
KuruTrancy
The bunny bat – it evolved from a rabbit to gain batlike attributes to hunt it’s prey – birds.
Doomwet
Builder Creative Competition Results
We had three points scorers for this month’s Builder competition! To find out more about the Builder competition, read the post! It’ll also cover the rest of the Builder role.
1st Place: CopperJay
Jay went with a Chameligoat!
Chameligoats: Chameleon + Goat Status: Endangered Habitat in the wild: Tropical rainforests and tall hills
Chameligoats are small, chameleon-like reptiles with large goat horns on their head. They are popular for eating mosquitoes, flies and other bugs, and are kept as pets in many homes. They have inherited traits from both goats and chameleons. From chameleons, they inherited most of their looks, and their appetite for bugs. From goats, they gain their horns and an insatiable appetite for eating everything (but bugs are the only things big enough to fit inside their mouths.
Their babies are born from eggs, and after being born, take a year to fully develop into adults.
They are endangered because of many people killing them for their horns in the 1800s. Since then the population has increased by a lot, with Chameligoat hunting being banned.
2nd Place: Smaug12345
Smaug created and perfectly styled the Peacat – a peacock/cat hybrid.
Scientific Name This is a peacock/cat hybrid so I decided to come up with a name that combined felis catus (domesticated cat) with pavo cristasus (crested peacock), and this was the result – pavo felis catus Cristasus.
Purpose It is an aesthetically pleasing companion with vibrant plumage and is capable of flight. It’s appearance is so stunning that it can literally stun its prey, making it the perfect hunting companion too!
Where can it be found? Nobody knows.
3rd Place: toothless_spy
Although toothless is an inactive builder now, he can still compete in the builder competition, but starts with a 15 point deficit. Toothless created the Spark!
Spark: Conquers the land and sea, nearly unstoppable shark spider hybrid used for exploration and battle superiority. Able to take on whole warships.
We were really impressed with the thought processes behind these builds! They were a lot of fun to read about! Well done everyone!
