We talked it over and we are going to reject you until you get a little further along. Thank you for applying and I see potential in the city, please feel free to reapply when you've reached a later stage in the project.

Possible promotions!

Due to the quality of the city and activity of OzzyKP Aquain has been nominated for golden status.

The voting is for council only however feel free to give an input if you are not on council

Voting will probably be sometime tonight if you miss the vote in game or I am not able to get on you may vote by giving your vote on the forum. Again the only vote that counts is a city council member. If I am in game I will let everyone know when the vote is.

Thanks,
Proush

Felix

Aquain is a great build and definitely gets my vote!

proush600563

kag i like the smooth stone with iron bars the best

Felix

Here's to 'chuck a spanner in the works'...

A cobblestone base and sides with smooth sandstone along the top with wooden fencing through the middle...

proush600563

You sure that wouldn't be to busy Felix?

Btw kag just a thought what if you make several cubes with the design that either Felix or myself suggested?

Like make the wall out of 4 x 6 x 6 cubes? Then maybe put a path on top, Just a thought

Cities: If you want to add something in the update be sure to post it

Edit:also Felix do you I am about done with that project i was working on I just need the ps put down which is halfway done.

And to all council members: do you think there should be a reward for achieving Golden rank other than the fame/publicity that is suppose to come with it?
I have just reorganized the names of the cities (on the first page) based on rank which I think is only fair
(Also I hope everyone is ok with this I went ahead and made New Arenae golden since it is basically an improved version of Arenae)
But make the reward ideas reasonable and affordable if we go to high it may require some kind of fee to join or tax or something which I don't want. I want to keep the GN so money is not what holds back someone from joining.
So I'm thinking maybe like $1000 to a Golden achiever? It's not a lot but its more than they get now. Plus it comes outta my bank account lol

OzzyKP

Oh, awesome, I was gone for a week and come back to see my city get promoted.  Thanks guys!!!

Btw, after being unemployed for the last year (and having plenty of time for Minecraft awesomeness) I'm starting a new job on Monday (which is very exciting!) but the downside is I may have less time to develop Aquain.  I'd really, really love to find a co-owner(s) and other assorted builders so I'm not doing everything myself.  I have big plans for the city (and texture pack), but I don't think I can do it myself.

This was my plan (and a certain other staff member may have suggested it as well) :) lol

Also I really hope you find someone good and dedicated because Aquain is awesome
And congrats on the job! Hope it goes over well!


*note there is only one other GN staff member lol
