Winter Build: Planet of Cubes contest underway!

I know I haven't been on since the new year started soooooo....

Happy New Year! Like, almost a month later - The joys of work and being busy. However, I did get a tweet from the good folks over at Planet of Cubes about a contest they're doing. So if you 're not part of the Planet of Cubes community, here are the details:

Planet of Cubes Contest: Winter Theme Build

 1. Build anything and everything according WINTER theme in Planet of Cubes. For example: Snowman, Christmas Tree, Snow City, Snow Palace, Winter Pixel Art, Skies and vice versa!
2. Made screenshot of your Creation.
3. Attach your screenshots to the comments on the website or send to poc.support@solverlabs.com

Prize:
1st place: 1500 coins
2nd place: 1000 coins

For those who are looking to update your skins and things of that nature this is PERFECT for you! And you know when I get the chance I'll premiere my creation here. Should be fun!

A Planet of Cubes contest is just what the community needed to get the new year off right, so this is going to be very cool to see what has been built. I'll be online most of these week in the evenings around 10 p.m EST - Look for Virgounitis!

The Pharoah

Came across this Pharoah and a few Sphinx statues. Pretty cool.

This Way Up

Found an interesting structure that points up. Where? To the heavens

Geocaching: Find This Week's Travel Bug!

You're looking for the Scarab block, seen above.

For those who've been reading the blog for a while now, you know how this goes: Login to Planet of Cubes and search for the Travel Bug. When you find it, reply to this post on what you saw and that will confirm whether or not you found this week's travel bug.

Hints:

This week it's under something.
Starting Point Coordinates are:  46: -87


Phrase to think on: "Love was built here"

What is Geocaching?

Geocaching, also referred to as GPS stash hunting, is a recreational activity in which someone "buries" something for others to try to find using a Global Positioning System ( GPS ) receiver. The pursuit can be thought of as a GPS-enabled treasure hunt. Usually, a geocache consists of a small, waterproof container that holds a logbook and inexpensive trinkets. Participants are called geocachers.

For POC Players, I simply post the coordinates and you find the Bug! Very easy! No GPS tools needed LOL!

Have fun!

What do I do when I find the Travel Bug?

Reply to this post!  I'll ask you a few questions to make sure you saw correct!
