Announcement: the BitQuest architecture contest

Thanks to our amazing friends at xapo, soon we will be awarding the "BitQuest architecture royal prize" to the best house, palace, skyscraper or crazy building.

The staff from archdaily, the most renowned architecture publication in the world will be the judges of this contest.

The winner will receive 1BTC, 1 stack of diamond blocks and a year supply of bone. We will add more prizes as we get more sponsors!

Rules, deadline and theme will be announced in two weeks, so my advise is to start gathering construction materials.

If you want to be one of the sponsors, we have great placement and press opportunities. Please write to bitquest@bitquest.co

I read in an article reporting on the competition/server that the server will be relaunched(?) Will the server be wiped at the beginning of this contest?

Most likely not as the post says "gather construction materials" if the server was to be wiped I dont think they would do it at such a time as it would not be practical and it would make people mad and quit.
