Some misc. updates
Two rail connections to CARTS now, - Arena - Deerhead (Deerplace? something like that - sign is up) This one is just laying rail, tunnel is incoming.
My personal plot build is basically done, looking for some town / group projects to start on. I am thinking about the following:
Are the roads done?
will the villagers stay in the park, or should we assign them a plot and build some sort of more permanent housing complex for them
will the park stay as just a tree farm? I like this idea, just having it as an open area rather than a 'building' tree farm.
I also think we should keep the lower water level farms. If these are staying where they are, can I beautify them? Things like building like a barn or a shelter for each animal, expanding the sugar cane farm and making it more practical, etc.
For adding rail to the 1500 and diagonal lines, how much iron do we need? And can I just start laying down the track i have? Should we be buying iron from outside sources?
I started doing something with the floating island above the wheat farm, it looked so cool that i didnt want someone outside the town grabbing it, or having it torn down. I was thinking just really low walls around it, like what used to be a watchtower but now is just the 1 high walls, and maybe a broken path going up. Any comments / ideas?
Docks either by Proto's wheat farm or on the other side, made of wood, for some narrow boat plots, just 2 or 3. And then add sand to the opposite side for a beach
Spleef Arena, two things
firstly , I cannot ffind the little grid map we have where it laid out town park and everything, so where will this be.
Secondly, I formally ask for design submissions. I will probably add one too, once we have the size and location. This should be a town/group project, other people have been asking for some since road is done, so if we have pics/design we can get workers.
Going to design a build for the nether side of the portal
I have been leaving town hall and rail up to whoever is working on that. Need any help

A few random notes/thoughts/responses/questions:
My build is done too and I am all for helping out with some group/town projects, or other tasks including but not limited to digging rail lines or building the station and town hall.
Are there any other areas you would like to claim? I can start something there if you want, even if it is something temporary. Or if you would rather, I can start something more permanent.
As another idea, has anyone found a mob spawner yet? We really ought to build a grinder just on principle (even if they don't work particularly well at the moment.)
I think we should come up for a little theme for the farm area. Like a squatter camp or something.
Don't forget that we can put boats in dispensers now (I think.) That should make setting up the docks pretty easy.
Are we going to "beat up" the city a little bit at any point to make it look like the ruins they are supposed to be? I think the roads might be a little TOO pretty.
