changedHere is a little building contest for fun! You have one month, until September 26th, to build the highest possible tower. Winner will get 3 keys of the game as a little reward, 2nd and 3rd one key, that you can offer to family or friends
changedReally bad example of a tower Here are the rules: - Use this map: http://gaddygames.com/games/DigOrDie/divers/Eiffel%20Tower%20Contest%20v4.save download it and copy it into your Dig or Die save directory, which should be something like that: C:\Users\ \Documents\Dig or Die\ \Saves\Solo ). - Use only the blocks you have in your inventory. Of course don't change the params or anything like that - You can anchor your tower only to the 4 rock anchor poitns on each side, as you can see in my example above. Do not anchor on the 10/20/etc. marks in the sky! - Post the screenshot of the top of your tower in the forum ( https://steamcommunity.com/app/315460/discussions/0/1734336452590368352/ ), and at the end the best one will send me their map so I can check it works well. I'll then put them public for everyone to download them and admire the Master Builder :-)
changed*** EDIT on 2018/08/27 ***As you might have seen, I've modified the contest (the file changed): the walls to use are now low-tech walls (the concrete ones, iron support and wood walls). The previous hi-tech contest is still valid, winners will get keys if they wish ; but the results were already far, far too high (130+), that wasn't very fun to build anymore. That's why I changed to low-tech walls, it will give much smaller towers but more fun and easy to build. I'm very sorry for this change but I don't think it's really fun to play with the very special game physics that happens when you build at those huge heights Good luck!
