Collective /world building

[morl0ck]

Let's make /world a little bit more interesting, by customizing it. We could open up a creative server (like the old hc) where builders must register. Worledit, etc can be enabled. The builders can vote on a "theme" and add onto the map until a set date, in which the map will go live on the server. Certain blocks can be disabled to prevent cheating (hiding items for oneself, etc).

For example everyone votes on a "new york city" theme, a map filled with tall buildings and confusing alleyways. The next week they vote on a "temple island" map, dotted with trap filled ruins, jungle, and random lava pits. Each week would come different vantage points and strategy considerations.

I know that a lot of the "builder" types on the server tend not to pvp much, so maybe they will get more involved if they helped design the map. It does get boring pvp'ing in the same default generated terrain.

two to three people build
everyone has different idea on what the theme should represent
map descends into mishmash of half finished constructions and takes too long to make

That would be the point of the deadline. And even a partially finished map would be more fun than the same default terrain every week.

We did do this once, and it was interesting. But the creative server is closed, and we don't currently have the hardware necessary to run it. If somebody wants to host and run (and moderate) a creative server for this, and then send me the new map every 2 months, then I'd be up for it.

I could even send the old creative server's map and you could use that.

Bump because I think this was a good idea.

Deleted low effort trolling. This forum is not discord.

Yukarion instead of removing /world can you add /world 2 that you can only access from the original /world and is a giant field of diamonds? I think that would be cool I think
