Project name:  The Dark Isles

Project location: X-841 Y64 Z1015  (/home ViperZeroOne) MEMBER WORLD

Contributors: Pew1998, Boshiwarrior, N8Matthews, ScottishChamp, 85USMC94, TheOne7142, TheRealFamous, TheWholeLoaf, KillAndSurf & More Daily.

Mayor: ViperZeroOne

Approximate dimensions: 258 x 269

Number of completed, decorated and furnished buildings: 10

What state is the project in, and what are your plans for its future, if any: At present the "Club Dark" building is nearing completion, and the islands have been cleared and terraformed.  I've built a number of structures on the island and they continue to go up at roughly 1 building every day or two.  I will continue building all of the structures, streets, and decorations myself.  I've also populated the islands with villagers to give it the feeling of being "alive".

Why should we grant this project protection?  The project has surpassed my ability to protect it with protection stones.  As I will be using the village as a Role Play destination, it'll need protected.  In addition, I've noticed player structures beginning to appear near the border of the protection I've outlined, and it's only a matter of time before someone builds inside the boundaries, forcing me to kick them back out.  Oh!  Last but not least, I think it's horrible for a Canadian flag to have a PS in the middle of it.  

Additional Notes:  I have placed four corner "markers" to outline where I need the sky-bedrock protection to cover, to make it extremely easy for whomever sets up the protection.  The first corner post is located (at -926, 75, 938) just off the edge of Club Dark's island and will direct you to the next, and so on.  I will be continuously posting "reply" messages to this topic, with updates on the project.

Where the Town/Village will be... Can you see it?  I can, and it's awesome.

THIS, is the reason I need approved.  No flag should have to have a PS in the center of it, ESPECIALLY not the Canadian one!    

Seems really cool Viper, Good Luck!

WICKED project, hope you get the protection!

This looks awesome, will definitely top my current party location.

Hope you get it viper

Looks fresh man, good luck!

Thanks everyone!  Fingers crossed!

Added the start of the village tonight.  Took over an hour to level the area, but the streets went in pretty quick after that.  I'm trying to keep the shape of the island natural, even though it's being leveled.

Looks brilliant viper! Hope you get protection!!

Thanks Scottish!

Anyone who wants to help out, needs wood or jungle saplings, and wants to help remove the "forest" is Ok to do so.  All I ask is you leave the GIANT (over 15 blocks tall) trees, as I have already demonstrated, but the rest (including the ground leaves) can be cleared.

I've placed a chest with Shovels, Axes, and Pickaxes for those who want to help out.  I've also built an incinerator to clear inventories with.  Remember!  Leave the GIANT trees alone, but the rest can go!  

Special thanks to ScottishChamp for being the first to lend a hand!

Hope you get it! You need it for this!

Agreed, It's growing beyond my ability to protect it.  That said, it won't grow past the borders I've selected.



UPDATE:

New picture!  I went to camp today, but was still able to get a lot of work done!  Thanks to ScottishChamp, a good chunk was cleared.  Still a long way to go, but I got the first house built and some streets installed.  Even put in another little bridge.  I'm keeping the area natural, as far as the shapes of the islands go, and there is a natural river running right through the middle that I intend to make the focal point of the town/village.  Here's the latest picture!

Hey viper, this project looks great, can't wait till it's done, supported.

I watched him working today, and with what he's putting into this, I believe that he deserves this protection.

This is more than enough to be worthy of a project protection! No doubt you'll get it viper!

Viper, as much as you have done to this place, it deserves project protection. You even went the extra mile to put up the markers. I hope you get it.
