Some great designs here, was tough coming to a decision!

I'm having trouble figuring out how the 3-D structures in O and R were built. I recognize neither some of the wall building materials nor the stacking method. Are these available in a non-IOS or non-mobile version of the game or are they the result of photoshopping or hacks.

While I greatly appreciate the artistry, if all entrants are to have a level playing field then I wouldn't want to vote for a hacked entrant in the general category. On the other hand, if I just missed these building materials I don't want to penalize them because I wasn't playing the few weeks they were available.

Can anyone advise me on this?



Thanks!

Fantastic work all around. Sorry I missed the deadline. Another time.

Oh my other question is how they got such big areas which seem to be larger than the biggest I can see. Am I missing something simple?

The items used are available all the time, they mainly use picket fences on one and metal fences on the other, they are stacked on top if each other to create the 3d effect. There is no hacking used. There are threads on these forums about how to create 3d effects.

3D structures are common but I really admire the complexity behind both of the entrants discussed. The only reason I didn't vote for R was because the fencing colour wasn't in theme enough and it broke the theme up too much. Seriously I had to choose between the silliest things in the end, it's not like we have access
To red and green fencing. I liked that O used common fencing that had a little x-mas cheer.
I do think R is amazing still. I really do.
