World of Warcraft launched the "Mists of Pandaria" expansion today - of course, many of us here will still be playing Minecraft! Still, what if we could combine the two somehow? Maybe have some Pandaria in our Minecraft game?
We're not talking a mod - we're talking a build contest! A build contest with a free XBOX 360 on the line, plus some really sweet 3D printouts, courtesy of Shapeways! Want to know more? Want to get your hands on a free gaming console? Maybe some other sweet prizes to go with it? Let's talk contests!

Make texture packs? Tired of people telling you to upload better screencaps? Send me a message with a link to your pack & I can help. (Check my Planet Minecraft blogs for photography examples). http://www.planetminecraft.com/member/likalaruku/
Link to E-Toro = Link Removed (shortened it because of signature length rules) Yeah It's pretty cool sorta like E-Bay but you trade instead meh just check it out.
OMG!! AN XBOX 360!?!?? no. Why would I wan't one When I have a computer that's better?? I personally see no point. Apart from the gift certificate. Plus, who plays WoW and wants an xbox? The majority are computer nerds.
So, I take it we 360 gamers are kinda out of luck on this one then. (Curse you microsoft's ban on modding!! lol) Still, best of luck to anyone who enters! I look forward to reading about some awesome builds. I've never tried to make anything with an oriental bend to it. Maybe now's the time!
Wow, as if the super-prominent ads haven't been enough for the past month, now they're infiltrating the actual news posts! Run before they get access to the actual game! Oh wait...

Personally, I think pandas in WoW is soooo stupid. Glad I quit playing that game after the icy throne thing. Flying was cool, the expansions after were lame.

I'll be submitting a build, but I'd like to know if we can use 3rd party textures as well?
I have never played the game either and dont plan to so i am rulled out of building also.
I believe it was WoW that made Curse successful. They gotta back it. I know that's how *I* know Curse...
Nope - double-check those rules. Scroll down.
