    Spiritual sounds interesting... I think we've all seen all sorts of industrial, recreational, and sometimes just plain strange stations from the first contests, but magic space stations? Haven't seen many of those. (My Aethi Starbase-M was/is sort of like that, but I need to fix the orb turret(s) and add or change some stuff. I'll not be entering it seeing as it's kind of... unimpressive, tbh)

    Only 15 days to build? Doesn't that seem a little short?

    The time it takes for people to build averages at around two weeks. Thus it becomes 15 days.

    Where did you get this number? Furthermore, why are you assuming that everyone will start building at the same exact time, and not allowing for unforeseen occurrences? Etc. Also remember what an average is - it's just an average, not the actual amount of time everyone takes. Even if that figure is correct, there were probably some pretty high and low numbers in there - Some people might've taken a month and (counterbalancing that) some 24/7 build-a-holics with paste templates for everything but the kitchen sink might've finished in two days. Etc.

    In general, the contest period should probably be quite a bit more than the average time it takes for people to build.

    I'm gonna be honest, I see why you set the time to 15 days. However, I do not agree on the account that in 15 days, I personally have about 9-15 hours building time on account of my full time job. Someone like Skylord Luke can finish a station in 2 days, but this is not a master builder challenge, right.

    No, this is not a master builder challenge, this is meant for anyone who wishes to participate. What do you all think would be a more appropriate time for this?

    I think a month to build would be more appropriate.

    The competition has now begun, the theme is: Industrial
    No surprise there...

    You have until the end of the month to submit your station, start building already!

    Only five days left to submit your station! Hopefully you've actually built it. :P
