With all due respect, I thought you were high or mentally challenged when I first saw that thing. o.O I'm not trying to be mean, just honest.
With all due respect, I would have expected the "Lead Architect" to be a little more open minded...
Well, I wasn't chosen as "Lead Architect" for my people skills.
Anyway, I don't wan't to fight, so if your hell bent on fighting, find somebody else to fight with. I'd really like it is there were no fights in this thread that caused it to be closed. Kthx.
Back on topic:
I got a question. Are we using roads or subways to get to the mines? I mean I know we have to use roads at first, but I assume we are going to use subways afterwards.
Also, how long does everybody expect the city to take to build? If there are monsters, and town takes a few days to build, we may be in some trouble, no?
Ouch. Trust me I would take things more seriously if there was actually a town. But just so you know, there is a very kind family that lives in that tower, and you're dissing them.

In my not so humble opinion (Haha, I made a funny!) I think that people should be permitted to make their own houses. However, if it's something like this one thing made in the current server, a house made of steps and only steps, I also think that we should have the right to have the person take it down. That way everybody can make their own thing, and it still looks like a damned house.
I just have to say, no. We're not a city of a few thousands. Is the plan to make a super small city of almost nobody? 20x20 is enough, but 10x10 is way, way too small.
Actually the plan is to keep everybody from building ontop of each other. And a 20x20 house is far larger then anybody needs.
But if you want a 20x20 house, you are more then welcome to go out of the city walls and build your own 20x20 house. However, it will not be under the protection of Vinland.
See, I think a level of trust is required for a town like this to work. If we don't trust each other, then of course we are all going to horde all our minerals to ourselves, and the town is going to collapse. Builders won't have time to both mine and then turn around and build the city, miners won't have time to mine then turn around and build their own defensive structures, redstone scientists won't have time to mine and then turn around and study the redstone. Etc. Not with Skeletons, Zombies, Spiders, Creepers, etc knocking at our doors. If there isn't a certain level of trust, we are all screwed, and not the good kind either.
Also, I wanted to call it Vinland after the actual Vinland. First town in a New Land, I think it's just fitting.
I can get in. I am working on an example of what I'd personally like the gates to look like. I am having a problem though... The wall is hallow (Three wide with the middle block empty, for soldier movement) and I can get the switch to open and close the door, but when I lay down the floor for the wall, it breaks the wire connection.
Anyway, probably should be talking about this in the main thread, not the city layout thread.
The way I see it, it should be everybody gets it. Of course, mining tools, soldier weapons/armor, redstone for scientists, etc get first pick of the materials that their field requires, but then once they get what they need, everybody else would be able to get their stuff.
Also, speaking of redstone, I was working on an idea for the gate, and was having some trouble with it. Anybody really good with redstone?
There, threw that together. Looking at it, it is kinda a more detailed version of mrtn's... x.x
And yea, I saved it to a note and have been copy-pasting it to get in, and it worked fine up until Saturday night/Sunday morning. I figured there was a server problem. >.<
Did the IP change?
One more thing, can we call it Vinland??? Please???
(Twenty points to the first person who get's the refrence.)
I think the personal housing should remain with the 10x10 idea, with a depth of 5 blocks down that they can go in their housing. (So as not to intersect any mining operations that may be going on.)
As for my sketch, give me a bit and I'll come up with something.
Also, why has the server not let me on for the past few days?
One more thing. I don't think the City Hall building should have the community chests in it. But that's personal oppinion.
I gotta say, I like Mrtn's design better. It lends itself to defense more then Scyber's. And Liquor's, with all due respect, is just kinda, well, yea...
Anyway, I like Mrtn's.

I personally don't want anything like that in our town.
Imagine folks, a tower made of nothing but steps. -.-;
