· This record is for the fastest time to build a castle in Minecraft creative mode.

· This record is to be attempted by an individual.

· This record is measured in minutes and seconds.

· For the purpose of this record, a castle is a stone block structure that has four walls, four turrets with battlements, an opening with a portcullis, a water filled moat around the castle and a wooden bridge crossing the moat.

The attempt must take place in a user created, featureless, mob free, flat, custom world.

The timer begins as soon as the player places the first block.

The player must build a stone block structure that has four walls, four turrets with battlements, an opening with a portcullis, a water filled moat around the castle and a wooden bridge crossing the moat.

The castles dimensions are as follows (please also refer to the images provided):

If the player accidentally mines a grass block out of the surroundings that is not part of the castle or moat, the player must replace that grass block.

If the player accidentally places a brick that does not conform to the above specifications it must be removed.

Once the castle is built, the player must place a coloured banner on the top of the 4 stone brick pyramid above the portcullis. The time ends when this banner is placed.

Please see pictures for instruction on how to build the castle.

Note: The guide describes how the overall castle must be built, however it can be built in any order, barring the placing of the banner, which must be the final action.
