Get Ready for the 2011 Championships!

This weekend, the 2011 Nexus Force Championships kick off with the first Build Event! Minifigures will also compete in mini-game events starting next weekend. Participating in each event will earn Nexus Force Championship Points which will determine the 2011 Nexus Force Champion!

Some Championship events are located in Members Only zones, such as the Cannon Cove Shooting Gallery in Gnarled Forest or the Dragonmaw Chasm Racetrack in Forbidden Valley. While Free-to-Play Minifigures can participate in the Avant Gardens Survival contest and the Build Events, your chances to be crowned the true Champion will skyrocket by becoming a Member of LEGO Universe to unlock all of the Championship event zones!



How to win!

Each event will be held similar to our contests in the past. You will participate in a mini-game, a racing event, or building event. However, along with cool prizes, you will also win Nexus Force Championship points!

These points will be added up over the Championship period. In mini-game and racing events, the first place winner in each age group will get 4 Nexus Force Championship points. 2nd through 4th will get 3 Nexus Force Championship points and 5th through 10th will get 2 points. Everyone else gets 1 point.

This means that even if you are in last place, you still have a good chance, as you can get more points the following week!

As build events take three weeks (plus one week for judging), they offer slightly more points as a reward.

The Nexus Force Champion should be the best overall player, and this scoring system will allow the players who are best in all aspects of LEGO Universe to rise to the top.
