MCSG Maker
Leaderboard
After another exciting week it is time to announce the leaderboard at this point in the competition. Congratulations to William, Getix, and Jordyy who currently hold the top three spots! Additonally, congratulations to Vigilo and ItsTrippyHippie for winning a game during week two. And last but not least, shoutout to Flairing_Shadowz and Untiring who had their configs chosen for the week 2 games. There are now two remaining sessions to earn points towards the leaderboards.
Event details
Every Sunday for four weeks we will host two games of MCSG Maker. Over these eight games tributes will have the opportunity to earn points towards the leaderboard. Additionally, between each week we will hold contests in our weekly update threads to earn bonus points. This is a new feature for this spotlight, and there will be more info on that later on in the thread. At the end of January the top three players overall on the leaderboard will win forum medals. If you attend all four weeks you also can earn a participation medal.
Length of the event: The event will run from the posting of this thread to the last Sunday of January. The winners will be announced the first week in February.
Number of games/weeks: Every Sunday starting January 10th till the end of the month we will play two games of MCSG Maker.
MCSG Maker Game Configuration: Each game we play will be different from the rest. We will chose a different combination of mutators for each round. Check out the points section of the thread to see how you can help us come up with ideas. (And win some extra points in the process)
Leaderboard: All the points earned during the Sunday sessions and from the forum contests will be added together at the end of the month. The top three finishers on the leaderboard at the end of January will be the winners. More info on the points and prizes later.
How will I stay up to date? We will post a weekly thread in the Community Events section of the forums. This thread will have the updated leaderboard, and the links to the Google Forms where you can participate in our weekly contests to win bonus points. In this thread you can find those links in the points section.
Region: This event will multi-regional. We will host weeks one and three on US, and weeks two and four on EU. That way US and EU players will have a fair chance at claiming the prize.
Time: The time for the event has been strategically planned so that players from both US and EU can participate. Here is the info for all the upcoming sessions. On Sunday when it is time for the event to start, poke a staff member in the GSL channel on Teamspeak (ts.mcgamer.net) to join. A working microphone is not required, but you must at least be present on TS to receive instructions. We will start the first game approximately 15 minutes after the starting time. That way we will have plenty of time to get everything situated, and make sure everyone has a chance to join.

How do I earn points?
These points can be earned starting today:
We need help deciding what configuration of mutators should be used. Therefore, we have left it up to you to decide! Click the link below and submit your config ideas for the event. If we choose yours you will earn 10 points. We will announce the winners of this competition at the start of the event every Sunday. Event judges will vote on the configs the Friday before each session, so if you submit after that it will be put into the selection for the following week. (Note: Please only submit up to three configs per week, if you do more we will ignore them. Additionally these points can only be earned once)
Click here to enter.
Want to help improve MCSG Maker? Suggest your ideas for mutators that should be added to the gamemode. The event staff will pick their five favorite suggestions, and those winners will earn 10 points. (Note: You can make unlimited submissions here. Put as many ideas as you want in each entry. You can also make multiple entries if you get more ideas later. However, you can only win this competition once.) The winners of this competition will be announced during the week three Sunday session. So be sure to be there. Submissions will close after that.
