Guests as helpers? I gotta disagree, too high chance they will just abuse the access to the zone to grief.

Sorry kooyboy32 and blockybalboa

blocky is a noob in the forums, but hes a pro in minecraft. Hes excellent with patterns and helped us already constructing the ground roads.

That's stereotyping there

Haha I tend to discriminate against guests too, won't see any 'cept for one or two around Redwood xD

The third circle is done now and its torch is lit.
I think i will make a big announcement when the final torch is about to be lit, this will be the signal to where all plots are ready to be sold and the helpers can choose theirs.

Following tasks need to be completed:

Constructing the sky plots (easiest task, just follow the sky expansion map),
Constructing the ground streets (requires very precise work with the construction maps),
Building a Railway Station at the South Mainstreet (design should be shown to the council and approved first),
Constructing a new Nether Gate Shrine at any of the Main Streets (design should be shown to the council and approved first)
Building a new entrance to the city mine (same as above),
Gathering Materials for the construction (we mostly require clean stone slaps and glowstone)

Flattening mountains has been removed from the task list because (hopefully) GodjMike will come back and finish flattening the area for us.

Im going to finish up the sky plots, then move on to help with the ground circles, the sky plots should be done soon.

But its difficult to measure how many blocks go in certain sky plots because of the lack of lines.

I got some stone slabs to donate....

Also, if someone gave me a template I could probably build the railway (cuz I like the railroad XD)

Do you mean the Railway station?

Also I think we should get all the hills cleared and streets built before we build anything else. I mean the Nether Gate, Mine Entrance and Railway station.

The template is up and ready. See the spoilers on page one, my first comment.
The big version is for better impression but i highly recommend you to use the pixel sized version since 1 pixel on that is 1 block ingame. Just count the blocks by painting them in a different color, this way you also see what you already built and what you still need to do

Good idea, I guess i should have thought of that. *facepalm

Well another thing is that i have to admit im rather unsatisfied with the activity of most of our helpers. I rarely see any of them in Acheron and it feels like the only time something changes around the city is when i do it myself.

If this behavior doesent change, i guess some players wont get their free plots.

Your city needs you people! Either help or you don't get your free plot!

By the way im quite happy to announce that Orcworm and GodjMike have flattened the mountains for us, saving us months of work!
So the very time and tool consuming task "flattening hills" can be removed from the list and replaced with "shaping the edges of the zone".

Right now, the world editing is very clear to see. Its ugly. I need you guys to reshape the mountains and hills so they look natural again. This also counts as helping and if done regulary until the city looks nice again, will lead to you earning your plot.

I think the world edit is off a little...because when I was making the path I ran into the mountain D:

Nero, me or blocky made a mistake on one of the ground rings, something is out of place but i cant find where. I left a sign marking the area.

Close call helpers, but im glad to hear your able to work out on the construction plans so well.
The city will soon be finished. Please make sure you leave the construction of the torches to me or SPGiygas.
We will make a big celebration when the final torch is about to be lit.
