      <content:encoded><![CDATA[Hello everyone,<br />
<br />
Just recently, both <a href="https://www.mineplex.com/members/91/" class="username" data-user="91, @dutty">@dutty</a> and <a href="https://www.mineplex.com/members/148/" class="username" data-user="148, @Intoxicating">@Intoxicating</a> have decided to leave the Build Team and Mineplex altogether. It is hard to see them go because they have made a forever lasting impact on the server over the many years they both have been here. It&#039;ll be something we will always remember. We all wish them well as they continue their journeys outside Mineplex.<br />
<br />
Due to these changes, I was fortunate enough to take on the responsibilities of leading...<br />

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[Hey everyone!<br />
<br />
A small update in terms of the Build Team Application - <br />
<br />
We have extended the number of hours required to apply for Builder to <b>50 hours (2.1 days)</b>. This decision was made due to the fact that we require our Trials to have extensive gameplay knowledge. Extending the time allows our aspiring applicants to further explore our games on the network and understand how to implement better gameplay aspects into their maps. <br />
<br />
If you have any questions regarding this change,...<br />

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[Hello everyone!<br />
<br />
Just wanted to let everyone know that Build Team Applications will be closed until <b>July 12th</b>. Many parts of the application will be rewritten and a good amount of questions are being removed as a result of it. The new application will be split into 3 sections: Information, Building Experience, and All About You. Our goal with this rewrite is to make the application look nicer, as well as function easier for both the applicant and the apps team. With these new...<br />

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[Since the creation of the Map Testing team, you have been able to apply for the team freely without the applications ever being closed. We decided, with this, that we would only add people as we needed them. However, we get a lot of applications every month and so we have been accepting people onto the team more frequently than I would have imagined. With that being said, the team is ever expanding and I feel the team is at a point now where we definitely have a full amount of people.<br />

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[Hey guys!<br />
<br />
Just wanted to make a quick announcement regarding the changes the Build Team is currently undergoing. Recently, we sadly had to say farewell to <a href="https://www.mineplex.com/members/84/" class="username" data-user="84, @Giovani">@Giovani</a>, who has been the Lead of the team for many years now, as he is branching out into the world of the Minecraft Marketplace, and seeing where new experiences may lead him. We all wish him well.<br />
<br />
That said, with his leave, a new Team Lead had to be promoted; I was fortunate enough to take on the role. However, this...<br />

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[For those of you who are unaware, back when we were on Enjin, I had a thread dedicated to every live map on the server. Once we moved over to these forums, I had to transfer all that information into a new format. I very recently completed the Map Database on these forums. It took me a while because I decided to use completely new screenshots and formatting to make the database more appealing; not to mention the image limit on these forums, but that helps when we come to add more maps to the...<br />

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[I appreciate the feedback on the map update threads, but I do feel I hate to remind everyone something. I <b>will not</b> force my builders to make maps they do not want to make, and refuse maps they do want to make. I encourage a very creative environment on my team, and forcing everyone to make maps they are not passionate about is not something I want to do, that&#039;s how you get bad maps. I am giving out rewards and shards for maps like Champions and and Castle Siege, but I refuse to force...<br />
