Yep I'm excited to get in there and start shaping the land. I was up there today and saw we have quite the challenge ahead of us. It will be cool to see how we apply designs from all the different players. I know we are kicking off terraforming very soon. If anyone would like to go by and take a look at the land and start brainstorming ideas to shoot them my way that would be great.
First order of business will be tree and bush removal. Then we can see the land for what it is. The deed token is up on a mountain side above the area that is already flat. The token is the spawn point. I'm thinking we could make a platform up there with a pathway or two down into the main area of the village. Or it could be flattened but that will require massive amount of surface mining at around 200ish slope. Looking at all the volunteers I have faith we will have no problems getting it done.

I think if we each bring like, oh, five alts each, multiply that by - what - 10? We can terraform and surface mine it in no time :-D

On good you got it working I look forward to seeing more peoples designs!! Any way you could post a full layout like you did the breakdown for the buildings so we can see how it will all fit? and Share the hieghts to see how it effects the mountain I think this could fit within the area that's already been terraformed/flattened?

I like that design, but perhaps make the main square bigger and make it the marketplace with merchants?

So working off the existing terrain ( Genesis map,) it'd be possible to cram 15 workshops and 13 market stalls into a part of the terrain that is already leveled and flat,

I've got a plan figured out for the terraforming. A rough draft in my head after hanging out in genesis past 2 days. Once we start next week I'll let the team know what to do and then it can just go from there and change as need be. Those are good designs ozgod. I think we are gonna have more room too in that area.
As terraforming captain I'll be able to help and advise. My plan will be a rough draft and can always change based on feedback once we all start but I figured we had to have some type of plan before we start.
I'm great at building houses in deedplanner but i suck at doing anything else so I can't show you the rough draft. Amberly has helped me with this greatly. It's gonna be great!

Also, maybe the village can have a small farm with little plots with all the different crops, beehives, fruit trees, and livestock?
Maybe not such a small farm, then...

We're going to open up development Monday night, May 1st. At that time, any one on our participation list will have the appropriate permissions to start helping at Genesis. Tomservo I believe is up first to start having you guys terraform, clear trees, and level the land...so we can get a better look at the canvas. I look forward to the progress and creativity you guys bring to this project. We start breaking ground soon! #HYPE

Wreck around what time EST will this be started so I can plan accordingly?
Also, I will be there in either Tomservo or Triton so as long as I'm online I will be there to help in some way or another.

I'll work around your schedule Tom since you're team is on desk first. I can be available in short bursts after 5pm EST, so I can log on quick and set perms.. I won't be fully available until later in the night, like after 10 or 11pm EST, after kiddies go to bed. Let me know what works for you.
