BTW Community Castle (v2.4 - 06/09)

Post by BinoAl »

I got a pretty cool idea for a community project from a pixel art forum i used to frequent. They would make a picture, and then edit it one at a time, until it was full, and crazy looking :) It was one of my favorite things to do there, so i figure, why not do it in minecraft?
Rules:
No placing blocks from any mods other than btw.
No griefing other people's creations.
Don't fill it offensive material, like nazi signs, "phallic" structures, etc.
Inventory editors are allowed.
Use only default item id numbers, don't change them in btwconfig
Don't use MCEdit in chunks containing others' creation, it might screw them up

Version 2.4 : http://filesmelt.com/dl/BTW_Community_Castle_v2.3_.zip

Started with a humble little house :)

Turns:
BinoAl
JWA
Haniale [X]
Fracture
Battosay
Sky_Som
Urian
David 367th
KWilt
blazeboy91
walker_boh_65
Darahalian
Jamestully22
HavokSCOUT
Demonicmonk

These people go in this order in a loop. Newcomers get added to the bottom of the list.
Default turn length is a maximum of 2 days, but if they post requesting more time, then they can have it. Also, I probably can't keep the list 100% accurate on who's turn it is the entire time, so double check the last map download posted

I've done chain projects like this before, and while its fun, the first lesson we learn is to have a list of who's turn it is and who is next. That is especially important here, where changes may not be immediately obvious, and someone's work could get wiped out if the next person downloads the wrong version. Also a loose time limit is helpful. Not that there is any rush but if someone downloads then has midterms, the whole thing gets put on hold for a few weeks.

*Edit* I just downloaded it and am working on it now. I already found five of our most precious resource so let me know if someone else already had dibs.

Great plan :) I guess before we get a list, a few more people have to show up, but that's a good point JWA

This is a lot like the way dwarf fortress was (or is) played. Every one has a turn, and tries not to get all the dwarves killed. Or in this case, not blow up someone's work with a creeper. Is it peaceful, or normal? I guess each of us can choose ;)

Good point, I didn't think about the fact that minecraft projects take slightly longer than pixel art :p It'll probably stay small right now, but if it gets more people in on it, I'll maintain a list in the op. Also, It's certainly more of a freebuild than a survival world, so be aware that many people will be inv editing items. I didn't think anyone would want to actually collect resources :p
Oh, and i call dibs after darkness, got an idea related to the resource collection :p

Dibs after Bino. I'mma make my underground fort. More likely, I'll make the entrance concept I had a reality, then leave the fort itself as something someone else can do at their leisure.

Ok, thats all the damage I'm gonna do for now. I kinda did add a phallic structure but its okay I swear! I added some stuff that won't be visible right away so look carefully and don't forget to beat your wolf! There really is cake if you can find it!

Lemme know if a .7z file isn't ok. Also, I renamed the save 1.1 so everyone who adds should amend it the same way.

Killed one of the Wolves(jerk didn't know his place), built Charlie the creeper's troll house of horrors and a treehouse with decorative windmills(you're definitely going to notice it standing out). Thanks for the opportunity and I'll be back to join the fun after a few more people get their turn.

Well when I said time limit I meant like if their MIA for two or three days. Don't wanna cut it too short cuz damn it was tempting to just keep building!
Its been a few, can you add me after you BinoAl? Lol maybe we can just loop and add people in as they come.

Loops a good idea. For now, new comers on the bottom, but once it settles and we only get new blood rarely, maybe toss them in as an automatic next? Get the new stuff in as soon as possible, and the rest of the list have been there a while, so it's not like they're missing out for too long.

5 days - gives people time to do awesome things(we all know batto..) without being rushed by life/emergencies, but still keeps it at a decent pace - seems to work well for other communal projects. If FC releases a huge update(which will likely not be soon, but he's hinted at one coming), restart the turn, to allow experiment time.
