Monthly Level Theme

June
As we head into June, Summer is fast approaching and after numerous exploits around the LittleBigPlanet, it's probably about time that Sackboy took a little break and went on holiday.
Before he goes though, we'll need you to craft his destination and by doing so, give yourself a chance to win that Rare Prize Crown that I'm sure you would all love to carry in your own holiday luggage!
So our theme for June is...
Holidays!
Holidays or Vacations, call them what you will.
The fact is that we're reaching the holiday season and it's time for Sackboy to pack his bags and go on holiday.
Where he goes is entirely upto you!
The entire Story Mode for LittleBigPlanet PSP was one big holiday and look at just what Sackboy got upto there!
There's no weather or localisation restrictions, just as long as you get the point across that Sackboy is going on holiday, your entry will be acceptable. What Sackboy gets upto at your holiday destination is your choice, he can just relax, go sightseeing, participate in the local activities or anything else that you would associate with a holiday.
Although of course, it's very important that you make your holiday destination fun to play!
So get creating those destinations for our June theme of...
Holidays!
Onto the rules...
Rules
1. The contest is open to ALL regions.
2. This contest is for the original LittleBigPlanet on Playstation 3, so please do not create and publish levels on LittleBigPlanet PSP for the purpose of entering this contest.
3. The level must relate to the theme of the month in someway, in this case the theme is Holidays and therefore such an appropriate level is required to be eligible for entry. It shouldn't be too hard to meet this month's theme, however whether or not a level meets the theme for the month is entirely the judges' decision.
4. The month's entries must be published before the 1st day of the following month. Meaning that the deadline for this month's theme of Holidays is June 30th.
5. Once the deadline has passed, you may re-publish your level for the purpose of fixing serious bugs/problems or adding minor aesethic adjustments.
However you must not alter your level drastically, for example by increasing its overall length or adding entirely new sections to the level. Any level considered to have been altered drastically after the deadline will be disqualified.
6. Entries for each theme must be brand new published levels. We will not accept previously published levels that were originally published before the announcement of the month's theme. Any levels found to have been published before the announcement will be disqualifed.
7. Each player may only submit one level per month for the contest, any player found to have published more than one level will be disqualified for that particular month's contest.
8. There is only a single Prize Crown to be awarded to the winner chosen by the judges for each theme, which will be awarded to the PSN that the level is published under. You may use Online Create if you wish, however bear in mind that there's only a single prize on offer and it will be awarded to the publisher of the level.
9. At the end of each month, the month's theme will end and judging will begin. The judges consist of myself and a number of other community members who have been selected especially for the task of judging these levels. Whilst we will endeavour to pick the level that we feel is best amongst the entries, you may not always agree, however the judges' decision is ultimately final.
How To Submit Your Level
To submit your level for this month's theme, just add the term "(LBW6)" to your level's name.
LBW for LittleBigWorkshop and the number 6, since it's the 6th month's contest.
For this month though, the term is "(LBW6)".
Just put that term into your level's name and provided that you publish the level before July 1st and the level meets the month's theme, it will be eligible.
Judges will not be held responsible for not judging a level they couldn't locate due to not following these given instructions.
With the correct term in your published level's name though, we should be able to locate the level on the LittleBigPlanet server and judge it accordingly.
So just follow the instructions above and your level should be fine.
Once you've published your level, feel free to use a single post in this thread or even the Promotion Zone to promote your level to the masses, although whether you choose to promote your level further is entirely optional.
Please do not ask the judges if they have found and/or played your level yet.
Quite simply we will most likely have a lot of entries to get through and we just will not have the time to keep answering such questions, however I can assure you that the judges' will play every single level submitted properly.
Therefore it is vitally important that you remember to place the given term into your level's name, as the judges will not be held responsible for not judging any levels that they are unable to locate on the LittleBigPlanet server due to the level not being published in the manner described.
That's everything covered now, so feel free to begin creating!
Any questions, feel free to send a PM my way.
Good luck with creating those amazing and wonderous holiday locations!
Thanks to StevenI over at the Workshop! :)
