The Event Summarized
Non-competitive
During the entire month of July, Planet Minecraft is hosting an event to celebrate the joy of summer. This event is non-competitive.This means there is no competition, no judges, no final leaderboard and no top-3 of winners. At the end of the event, each participant will receive a special participation badge. 😁
Five entries per participant
The event allows for up to five summer-themed entries per participant, in the projects, skins and blogs categories. Video's, artwork, photography and other creative creations can also be shared as a blog-post.
Rules
- The standard rules of Planet Minecraft apply to any submission.
- You are expected to enter new work. This means you cannot enter any creation that was previously uploaded to Planet Minecraft.
- You are allowed to enter work that was created for another summer themed unofficial community event.
- Collaborations and teamwork are allowed and encouraged for this event!
- Submissions that do not follow the Summer Vacation theme will be disqualified.
bubble_chartTips
- If you create an entry which doesn't immediately seem Summer Vacation themed, please make sure to explain the relevance to the theme in your submission's description.
- You can create a skin, a blog-post and a project, you do not have to choose just one category.
- You have the entire month of July, so take your time and have fun!
- Don't hesitate to collaborate for this event, we would love to see some team efforts!

They appear randomly, so can be any page, but always on top of your menu bar :D

Under rules it lists: Submissions that do not follow the Spring Fling theme will be disqualified. - (I think it is meant to say Summer Vacation, but that's besides the point.)
I was wondering, are the hosts required to read the descriptions before disqualifying a participant, because with my first entry, it's not automatically clear that it is 100% summer themed unless the description is read.
Thanks!

Aye, my bad about the spring thing. Should be more careful with replacing those when copying an old thread. 😁
Us hosts always make sure to read the description before disqualifying anything. We understand that some interpretations of the theme may not be clear from the visuals alone. 😊

oh, could I host the mystery title summer edition to encourage builds and skins for the "Summer Vacation" event? (already got 20 things for builds and 20 things for skins)
2
Ah, yes! 😁 Please do. I won't have time to host a mystery title event again anytime soon. 😊 Would be great to see your take on it.

Check the tips on the event description:
"If you create an entry which doesn't immediately seem summer-themed, please make sure to explain the relevance to the theme in your submission's description."
We ask you to do this because us event hosts don't have time to search through all the maps which seem off-theme, to look for hidden elements that *might* relate to summer.
Your entry was disqualified because from your submission (images + description + tags), we can't tell that your build relates to summer in any way. Simply update your description with an explanation, and re-enter if you believe that your submission fits the theme.
