Good evening gents, ladies. Congrats! You've just taken a sneak peek at one of the most impressive group contest entries ever to grace PMC! That may sound a bit snotty, but when we're finished, you'll see why we can act in that manner!
Terror from the Stars is merely a name, doesn't really give you an idea of what we're doing. So here's a brief overview:
Originally, we were thinking of just doing space stations, or some sort of war, or who knows what. Then my lovely friend out in Chicago gave me the idea for Space Invaders. We started doing that..... but then realized thats more of a closer to Earth thing. So instead, we're basing an interstellar attack on Earth off of Minecraft-themed Galaga.
We are using the provided contest map!
HOWEVER
While most of our competitors build within the asteroid belts, or merely add onto the provided globe, we've flipped the proverbial table, exclaimed "Firetruck That!," and have decided to COMPLETELY REBUILD EVERYTHING to our own background standards. The planet. The Asteroids. Even the SUN...... well we're just cutting that out altogether.
Where many of our other competitors resort to cheap tool usage for building, such as MCEdit & Worldedit, we pride ourselves on handcrafting our builds. Our only exceptions to this will be the formation of our asteroids, which will be voxeled into the map, then hand-edited to their completed shapes, and moving some features of the map once completed in an open space into their proper positions.
Eliminating the Earth on the map is step one. Rebuilding it to cover the entire map at bedrock level is step 2.
Redoing the entire asteroid belt is step 3.
More stuff to come, hit that diamond button, help us achieve our goals of Planetary (Minecraft) Domination!

After a long night of chicken-bombing, skyping with a beautiful lady, and screwing around with a few people, we FINALLY finished the Earth. Enjoy!

Contest Disqualification
You may get as creative as you like, but DO NOT expand outside of the defined SPACE on the map. Builds must be around the planet, it's rings, in space, NOT on land!
This also includes destroying or taking apart the planet.
Please read the contest rules carefully.
Check over your rules again: This time, the goal is to build a spaceship, space station, or whatever nyou can think of to send Steve to space, as long as it's sci-fi (so, no nflying medieval houses, please). Entries must be contained within the asteroid belt of the starter map.
What's Allowed:
What's Not Allowed: The following will result in disqualification.
NEVER ONCE in these rules is this "rule" of yours mentioned.
Never once is the Y coordinate boundry specified.
Never once is it stated that we cannot edit, add onto, or destroy the pre-existing structures on the map.
The ONLY constraints are "Do not build beyond the borders of the asteroid belt" and "Must be on the provided map." By eliminating my project, you're stating that anything built above or below the asteroid belt/planet is grounds for disqualification.
Check your facts, re-qualify this project.
On the other hand, some of my new stuff should tempt your fancy
