Back in April of this year I started playing around on MS paint. I ended up building a 9/11 memorial park. I knew that a 60x60 plot wouldn't do. I worked a little extra at a side job, set aside enough money to become a Gold supporter for a year and claimed an Utopian residence. After awhile I knew that the mass amoutns of resources I needed would take another year to mine. I began buying up stacks of lapis, sand, and circle stone. I was running out of rupees quick. I don't beg for materials well, so I felt my only option was to go Diamond. So I worked a little more. I am no where near completion. The exoskeletons are almost complete. I keep reworking the interiors but I am making progress. Feel free to see it at any time AT Utopia res 5210. This memorial is real to me. I'm putting real money into making it a reality. I will reluctantly watch 9/11 documentaries today sadden by my memories of that day. I will never forget. Thank you.
Thanks Alex. I'm not asking for donations (I won't turn them down either ). The reason being is. After this build is complete, I plan to give away all of the leftovers, and my rupees away with small contest to advertise this build. Also to give recognition to the people that died that day.
I just took myself on a tour of your project.......WOW.......Amazing I thoroughly recommend a look. You'll be glad you did! ps. I always wanted to tell you that I love your profile picture. Very cute
I started mining in April. I began building in August (I think). As far as "finished" Maybe two months or more. I can really only work on it after the family has gone to bed, on my first day off of work, or at work late night. My wife and a guy I work with will help me with some parts of it later on, when that time comes. I don't mind buying the items at the moment. I'm hirering sheep sheerers for white wool. Each ceiling takes 25 stacks of white wool. x32'ish floors. http://empireminecraft.com/threads/hiring-sheep-shearers.12867/ I'm patiently trying to win a double chest of glow stone. Each floor takes 8 gold blocks. I'm running low. Sand. I'm buying circle stone as needed to prevent over buying. A stack cost 1440r. I'll edit this as I think of it. This is what the floor looks like.
looks awesome...oh now i remember you had a sheep farm on your utopia res too...glowstone i might be able to help with at least somewhat...
although i am working on a big project of my own i would like to offer you help, i will mine smooth stone in masses for you (i have a very very efficient stone gen) if you would like, and i would be happy to help you place if you want help. I think its great what your doing so this is the least i can offer, regards Jetfire
Thank you for your offer, however I had originaly messed up on my math when figuring out how much stone I needed. I mined 11 times more than I needed. But thank you none the less.
