The Towers Development Part 2 (and an application)

VELVET_WINTER/PIRATE06 HERE :D

well technically part 1 but let me explain

so as some of you may of seen i have built a tower to max sky limit on my land near walrus, this however is just the first part in a long process in which i have started phase 2

the phase 2 tower consists of a 64 x 64 base which will be made smaller slowly up to max block limit, think of it as a huge pyramid(ish) sort of thing but much sexier :D

this will now complete my development either oh no, not anywhere near.

phase 3 will be a traingular tower, much like phase 2, this will be located to create a triangle between all 3 towers, i will then wall them all off with a huge (but again very sexy) wall

once these phases are completed then the real work begins (because making huge towers is childsplay to me apparently) :D

the overall plan will be to create a bright and vibrant city around the wall, with transport networks, aquaducts and more…

time for completion of this project will range anywhere between a few months of solid work in creative to a year or more doing this all legit…

this is where my application comes into play so please read very carefully

i have been a member on this server for around a year and a half (i missed a few months because of my leg :( ) but i have pretty much always been around somewhere, and i am asking not only owners and admins but members alike whether one of these 2 could be done for me (big ask i know)

  1. can i be made a temporary admin whilst i complete my project, so i may enter creative mode freely ( i have asked before but once i sign out i lose creative and it seems a hastle to ask every time for the next few months lol) now this would not be a permanant position as i have no intentions on becoming a full admin until everyone feels i deserve it. heres the second option

  2. a new class is made where they can freely change to creative, only to be given to a small minority who can be trusted with such a power, think of it as mabye a mod or somehting, someone not quite with the power of an admin but with the ability to teleport and use creative.

i havent done anything like this before but if i could ask for feedback on this it would be great, and i wouldnt do this unless this project was impossible without creative, i hope to hear your thoughts very soon :) love you all

Contest

yo folks, after the postponing of the contest thanks to the update, i am happy to announce the contest will start on friday at 4pm pacific time

See my last post for details

SURF EDIT: https://teh3l3m3nts.com/?p=3188 (People are lazy :D)

BUILDING CONTEST

SURF UPDATE: Kirby and I discussed that this should wait until after the update…so keep checking here!

Folks it’s time for another building contest! It’s not too lengthy of a list of details… I hope.  So here we are.

The building contest will start this Friday, October 26th 4 PM Pacific time.

The teams for this contest will be the factions (Elite, Walrus, Legion) however we are opening up a fourth independent team. This team will not necessarily become a faction, but it is for all those non-factioners out there who want to participate. It will however be a TEAM EFFORT. You can’t just go off on your own, you have to work together.

(IMPORTANT) If you want to be part of this team of independents (hah oxymoron)  comment so BELOW.

The contest will take place at spawn, as it is still rather empty , (yes we’re basically using you as labor, but it’s FUN labor) , and we need a list of structures to be built. Now, based upon how this first contest goes, this will most likely will be one of many rounds of an overall building contest. Each team will be given an instruction for building, which will be randomly placed in a chest by an owner, and selected randomly by a member of each team.  The lots on which you will build these will also be assigned randomly.

You will have a total of 3 days to plan and prepare for your structure, (you may start building, but remember we want good well built structure. no half-assing) and then a week to build.  Yes this contest will end on November 5th, so no dilly dallying.

Of course there is the most obvious thing on your minds, the reward. The winner (judged by our owners Gary surf and mike) will receive EITHER  a substantial amount of diamonds or experience. I’m sure if you wanted some other form of payment it could be negotiated.

That looks to be about it folks, a little lengthy but hey, i don’t caaaare. Happy building folks

New Admins Part 2!!!

Everyone give a congrats to Petrispier as the newest Admin!!!

 

…. and thank rtkermit for ruining it! :D

New Admins!

Hey Everyone!

Strange_turkey has been promoted, how about some congrats!!!!!!!

Yes, there has been a recent uproar because of it.  Anyone that would like to discuss this, please contact me instead of spamming chat in game or in IRC.  Also, leave cnc alone about it. I initiated the promotion, not him.  Yes, I got my opinion from others I trust because I haven’t been around to make such a judgement, and even if I had been I wouldn’t have made a decision like that alone anyway.  So, again, you want clarification, or to get anything off your chest, get at me. easiest through skype (natel.arvixe), email (nathan.lowell@arvixe.com most frequently check, but minecraftpisspants@gmail.com will work well too, just make sure it’s specified that it’s for me).  Plain and simple, attitude, mindset, and skills factor in equally ALONGSIDE time spent on the server.  And ask any owner… theres always people pissed off when someone gets promoted… always.

 

All that aside,

There will be one more person promoted to admin.  Once we are on the new server, and have started listing more again, there will probably be one more promotion to start with, then more as/if needed. So don’t go thinking someone shit in your toybox just yet.  We have been discussing this and have not thought beyond the next promotion at this time.  Once all applicable parties (you know who you are lol) have gotten their votes into the mix, it will be done and announced.

Quick sidenote: I want to thank everyone for the awesomely warm welcome back :D
