• Amazingness •

This week, Amazingness constructed an impressive fortress out of the new ancient phantom walls! Climb up to the parapets to stand guard, and watch out for invaders! Can you defend this castle? Amazingness sure can!

• Hyeburt •

Hyeburt's Trojan Horse stoically towers above the battlefield, casting its shadow over the ground like a sneak-attack of doom. The Trojan Horse was an extraordinary battle tactic where the Greeks hid inside of the wooden horse's belly until Troy brought it in its borders as a trophy. In the dead of night, the Greeks attacked, and the streets ran red with Trojan colors. Don't mess with this horse!

One staple scene in any Medieval tale is jousting! This week, Hyeburt also contributed this marvelous jousting arena, complete with horses, tents, and the track! Be brave, young knights who seize the challenge.

• Pugfluff •

Marketplaces today are full of local treats, noise, peddlers and their goods, and a crowd! Medieval marketplaces were all that and more, so definitely hold on to your wallets! This week, Pugfluff contributed this lively marketplace. Take some time to watch a puppet show, or browse around the booths. Enjoy!

This week's tip is to keep trying! There are so many cool ideas out there that no one has even tried yet, like Hyeburt's Trojan Horse. Be resourceful with which items you use, and don't be afraid of trying new things! Your own worst enemy is you.

Now, it's time for our DD fan selections! This is the part of our magazine where we feature some spicy dens created by some of YOU! If you'd like the chance to be featured, just add the hashtag DDfan to your post and we'll review it! Without further ado, here are this week's top picks:

•Nekmit •

Nekmit is definitely getting into the fall spirit with this den, Harvest Skies! The colors are so warm, but they're on the brink of winter. Wonderful job, Nekmit!

• Bunny •

Themed after the classic tale, "Secret Garden," this den definitely captures the beauty and friendship of Mary Lennox, Collin Craven, and Dickon Sowerby. Well done, Bunny!
