Ugh, I really hate the look of cobblestone in this game. But to each their own. I would prefer to build my own house btw
One suggestion I have is to make a well in the center of town, just a 2x2 piece of infinite water, and storage chests with some buckets around it. So water can be easily reached by anyone. Maybe also make a moat outside the wall if you have water anyway ^^. Oh, and the explorers should carry food, signs, torches (lanterns are not really needed for exploration), a compass and a watch. And weapons of course. Leather armor would probably be good enough for most occassions, unless there's plenty of iron. But the explorers are likely to take alot of falling damage which destroys armor pretty quickly, so better to dress light. The town guard can have the good armor
Yeah, traveler should also carry some tools, a minor amount of building material and boats. They will have the responsability of building outposts now and then so they will need the materials. I think this is useful because if we ever come to build huge stuff outside our base we already have at least a place to stay at night.
One of your original points was about different levels of power and a gold economy and keepin' the mining man down. So I disagree just slightly, and offered you my thoughts, as did others. I'm sure it's less a slight against you and more everyone making sure their time and fun isn't going to be wasted. :3

Sorry guys. I was at work for 14hrs yesterday so I couldn't respond too much. I will try to clarify on some issues.
1. Yes LinkX you got the position.
2.This server will be "communist" in the sense that everyone will be treated equally regardless of the position that they hold.
3. While there will be leaders and other positions, this is merely just to organize things. Hopefully, to help us work together to achieve some goals. There will be no actual power in these positions. The only power that will come from them is working with Junction3 and I to plan on what we will work on next.
4. There will be no form of currency or trade. I hope that everyone here will just help each other out with materials and other things if and when needed.
5. Every player will get their own 20x20 area to build whatever they want on it. These areas will be away from the main town and can be picked by the individual.
I think that covers everything from yesterday. Now that we have a lead architect and master explorer, we can begin planning out our first few days when the server finally goes up. I will also edit the OP with some new rules clarifying some of these new revelations.
I am also still looking to fill a few key roles. The spelunker (main digger) and engineer (redstone user). If you are interested in either of these roles, please let me know. If you are not and have not chosen a job yet, please specify whether you would like to be a builder, miner, or soldier. again, these positions will not tie you to only this task, it is just to help us organize.
As it comes closer to the launch date, more details will be released on what is planned to happen. I hope everyone is as excited as I am to start.
EDIT: also, please let me know your account name for minecraft so I can add it to the players list so we all know who is who.

considering that that position does not exist, no. I am not too worried with our town looking like crap. We will all be collaborating on creating new buildings and everything.

Linkx is the lead architect. I may however add another later if needed. For now I only need him. The only positions left are engineer, spelunker, builder, and miner.

When you say they are separate, do you mean that its sectioned off like a hive cones walled off with a door or two or do you just mean its the other side of town?
I assume we are going to have a wall around town, no?
Are you asking about the personal housing? If so, thy all be where evr the people want, excluding the main town area. It will be a space that that prson is responsible for and can build whatever they want. Transportation back tothe main city will be their responsibility too.

So they will be responsible for protecting their area, keeping mobs away from it, keeping it well lit, etc, etc, etc? And it will be outside of town?
Also, imo, there should be a rule that there should be a 2 block wide space between the areas so that, if they go the full 20x20 area, people can still get around them, if that makes sense?
I'm new to the forums after lurking for ages since d3 was announced. Loved D2 played most classes 70+. Never really liked the whole paladin thing.
My Minecraft idea is to make a dungeon. We can set it up with traps (Step on a plate and lava spews out.) and put treasure in it. I think you can add monster spawners if admin? Could even make is Tristram cathedral?
Anyway, I work two jobs and live in Australia so I wont be on much, and when I am it could be at the wrong times
I wont take a job except maybe town drunk or drifter.
@Growdanbowl - I was actually on the fence about adding a farmer position so since you want it, it's yours.
@Irrational - You can have the position of exterior decorator.
Ok, I think the OP is up to date with member information. If you have not done so, please let me know what position you would like and your minecraft account name. There are still two major roles that need filled, The engineer who will help people with complex mechanism and using redstone and the spelunker who will be the main person for mining.
If you have already stated this information and it is not on the OP, please state it again. I may have missed it among all of the posts.
We are less than two weeks away from finally getting to start this server!!

Everybody from Warehouse Workers to the President of the United States is in America. Not everybody can just quit.
That's the difference. Lets just have a Democracy/Communist game where everybody works together and helps everybody else out?
Also, I take it I didn't get the Lead Architect position?

Neighborhoods: Personal areas, houses, parks, etc.
Working areas: Mines, science labs, gathering hall, town hall, etc.
Monumental Project Area: All our sweet ideas are built here.
Also I recommend a mailing system using mine carts to send stuff to people. That would be pretty sweet in my opinion.
And I consider myself a guy with good design tastes (not trying to sound gay or anything). Can I be Lead Design to make everything look awesome?
