@Apoc - I think with who we have right now, that should be enough and we can add more room later.
I too have been bitten by the cataclysm bug reducing my time on the server.
Again, this server is meant for people just to have fun. If you only get on once a week then thats all you play. If someone (mrtn) is on all the time and wants to build, then thanks for that. I will keep the server up as long as people still want to play.

updated the OP with our current map. What we need to do know that we have our TownHall mapped out is to decide where the other districts are going. We need residency, commercial (storage, items), industrial (workshops, mineshafts, testing areas), farms (already started but might need to relocate), pvp coliseum, other ideas, future plans.
Once we get this decided upon, we can build and outter wall so it is safer for us to work.
@shavedbarb - I need your account name.

Alright, the mod is back up so everyone should have a title with their name as well as access to some extra commands like:
/help,/sethome,/home,/spawn,/me,/msg,/kit,/playerlist,/warp,/motd,/compass,/tell,/m,/who
I will be setting up the area for the townhall which will be our first project. I am going with a 40x40 structure so it will be plenty big for whatever we need it for. I will also be setting the spawn point to that location. Feel free to work on it. There will also be some chests in there with building supplies. If Air or someone else wants to come up with the actual design of the building. For now it will just be a 40x40 square.
Once we get the townhall built, or at least a solid base, we can then move onto housing and commerce district.

Here is our map. I was thinking that we build the center of the city right where the snow patch is. That would give us a lot of room to expand in each direction and leave the back side open for a port to the big water section.

I personally am usually on around 10-3 EST. Although most people seem to be on later in the day. The server is not English only. If you want to talk to mrtn or left, just talk to them in English and they will respond.
As for the city. I think I have some time friday morning to try to plan and organize this. It does not have to be close to spawn point since that mod lets me create a new one. But there is a good chunk of land north of the spawn point which is probably where it will go.
For now, just make some mines and get some mats. You can build some temporary structures if needed but try not to make anything to big.

Alright, after about 6 maps, I think I found one that will work. The server is up and running. Unfortunately, the mod with the user groups and titles does not work right now with the update but when they fix it I'll reapply it.

alright, every player right now is set up with a user group and color/title in game. You can check the OP for colors/titles. I am also using the whitelist which restricts access to other players unless i add them. I have added everyone on the OP. If you would like to play, please let me know so I can add you to the whitelist. The server is up for now if you would like to check it out.
everybody has these commands enabled:
/help,/sethome,/home,/spawn,/me,/msg,/kit,/playerlist,/warp,/motd,/compass,/tell,/m,/who
most importantly is the /home and /sethome so you can create your own home location to warp to. /playerlist will also now allow anybody to see who else is on. As of right now, Junction and I are the only ones who can ban players and other admin commands.
Also, we still need a conductor, engineer, master explorer, traveler. If you are interested, please let me know.
Unfortunately, I will be working a lot this week and won't be able to get on much. For now, I would like if everyone would just make some smaller mines and build up some resources for our town.We should also all put the difficulty to normal.

I’m definitely going to add hardcore mode to the game where dying will destroy the world. I’m not sure how it would work in multiplayer, though.. Perhaps you could get “banned” from the server until the world resets if you die on a server running hardcore mode.
Alright guys, I am going to be shutting off the server until we get the HP update which should be tomorrow or wednesday (my comp needs a day off). When the new patch comes out, we will all be starting on a new world with the construction of our city. I will layout more detailed plans later for the start of this project.

Alright 20x20 for houses. We will begin the new map when the update comes out. Right now, the big square idea is the one we will go with. As far as how everything will be laid out, I am thinkng we will go with airandius' layout for the most part. With HP working this should be a lot of fun.

Well, seeing as how you haven't really played the game, I'll try to explain this to you.
first, the town needs to be as close to our spawn point as possible. Players can use the /home command to automatically go back to town. I don't want to have to walk back and forth.
Secondly, yes. We can level an area we want to build on. However, this takes time of mind numbing mining that not many enjoy. Tearing down about 45,000 blocks just doesn't sound like fun to me and I want to have fun.
If it helps, don't think of these buildings as your house. Think of them as storage units. All we should be doing with these buildings is filling them with chests to put armor, tools, and rare ores in. It's not like you need an actual place to sleep at night.
Junction and I talked about putting it to a vote but we just saw no reason to make the 20x20 other than people just want to build bigger structures (which people will still be able to do). This would not only increase the size we need and time it would take but it would also make for longer travel for those who are in the back corner just to get some quick supplies. All increasing the buildings to 20x20 is make it harder for everyone.
Sorry if this decision upsets some people but I think it will work out once we do it in game. We have a lot more buildings to create like the elaborate town hall ~40x40, commerce buildings ~7 buildings, farms, testing facilities. And with PVP officially being implemented, the coliseum for dueling and monster fights. trust me, there will be plenty of big buildings we will get to create.

Junction and I both understand not everyone is going to be happy with the plans for the houses. I think while we build the city, people will at least understand where we are coming from. And again, I want to stress that everyone will be able to build whatever they want away from the city.
