FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can I submit more than 1 Datapack?
A: Yes, but we do not recommend it.
Q: What are the prizes?
A: Right now, there are currently no prizes, but depending on how many participants there are, there is a chance for gift cards to be given away ;)
Q: What are the rules?
A:

1. Teams are allowed, but anymore than 4 can be detrimental to the team.
2. No NSFW or hate. This isn't the spot for that.
3. Do not steal other peoples code. Go for yourself and have fun.

4: You must submit a datapack!
5: You must submit BEFORE the deadline.
Q: Is there late submission?
A: No, there is not late submission. You must have your datapack IN by the deadline.

(I will start going over submissions on the 30th!)
Q: Can I submit a datapack I already made?
A: No, you can not submit a datapack that you already made! The whole point is that you make a datapack, (using the theme) for the entire month of April.
I have other questions!
Please leave them on the Group Community Wall!

How do I start?

Q: So, How do I participate?
A: First, wait for September 1st and wait for the theme to be released on PMC OR attend the livestream on my YouTube Channel!

Then, create your datapack!!!
Q: How do I submit?
A: When time comes to submit your datapack, there will be NO FORM.

To submit, you will upload your datapack and any maps or resourcepacks to PMC directly, and in the tags, include '#minedatajams3'

Boom!
Q: How do I vote?
A: Voting will be done by the community! You will vote for each of your favorite datapacks!

As a sidenote, voting is done on a "pick your 3 best!" You will pick the 3 best from that category!

The voting will be done on:
  • Enjoyment = How much you enjoyed playing / using the datapack.
  • Originality = How original, or how unique the datapack was.
  • Presentation = How well the datapack ran, and how it was executed.
  • Use of Theme = How well the datapack stuck to the theme, or how it was used.
    (When voting for theme, thing broad. Think if it went outside the box. Don't look at the theme with face value)

    Please do not vote based on the code inside of the Datapack. If you would like to see it, you may, but if it works it works. There is not a voting category for clean code and compact code.

A link to vote will be given on Discord, and PMC.
