  3. And triple post:

    Updated the Current missions section. It is growing longer and longer: Time to get away from collecting resources and start building again :)

    Here you go
    Current missions

    Please consult below whenever you feel like you need something to do, get your pals together and claim a mission.

    Current support projects

    Currently supporting:
    Huge tree - by the_creeper_lord; needs mainly oak logs and leaves; SP officer: Sweetcuty

    TNT res - by SEPTHEKID; needs sand, gunpowder, TNT; SP officer: Kaizimir

    Further suggestions:
    The secret of the stunning stone... - project of our respectable member haastregt. We should support this as much as possible

    The SMP7 Apartment Complex - Interesting public frontier project

    EMC's biggest town build ever! - Mega project, definitely can use support; hope it can be finished

    Open missions




    Building

    #1 Natural reserve (3 pts) -> Map
    The roofed forest north of Carthaga needs protection and marking as natural reserve. It should become clear that this is not a building area. For an example, please look at the flower forest or sunflower plains.

    #2 Build an efficient dark room spawner (5 pts) -> Map
    Right now it is hard for Carthaga to get hold of gunpowder, therefore we need a mob grinder. Please locate in the industrial district at the iron and sea temple farm.

    #3 Take down the active dark room spawner (3 pts) -> Map
    Located in the flower forests close to Kaizimir's house this farm doesn't work probably and needs to be taken down. Please return all items and blocks to the general storage

    #4 Build a new apartment building (6 pts) -> Map
    This is the ideal spot for a new apartment building. It should look nice and inviting and have rooms for many new members.

    #5 Very difficult job (8 pts):
    Build a whither farm or refine the one that is located close to the Netherrail station in Carthaga.
    If building a new one please consult with Suriyakeng, he knows an excellent spot already. This is a huge undertaking and you can count on all the support of PoC.

    Resources

    #1R Massive amounts of sand
    Bring as much as you can for Sweetcutey's rain shield project. Job points per DC

    #2R Massive amounts of stone bricks
    Bring as much as you can for Suriyakeng's project. Right now I cannot disclose the project itself

    #3R Nether Quartz
    As much as you can get; always useful

    Others

    #1O Assess gold farms (2 pts)
    AFK at the old gold farm, below the city center and the new gold farm at the ice plains for 3x1 hour each and count the number of nuggets collected. Scientific precission required!!

    #2O List of farms and facilities (4 pts)
    It would be nice to have a list of all the farms around Carthaga with type and location. If you want to do more, assess the output of items per hour.

    Available professions
    • Architects - Responsible for a good looking builds
    • Town development coordinator - Work closely with architects to place what where and develop unused areas
    • Greeting committee - Welcome new members, show them around and make sure they feel like home
  4. 1. In-game name: Foxyblox
    2. Timezone: Eastern Standard Time
    3. How long have you been playing Minecraft: 2 years
    4. Have you ever been kicked or banned and what was the reason: No, never
    5. Do you plan to build/have a mega mall/another big project: I plan to build and help with build projects
    6. What is your favourite Minecraft activity: Building projects! Having something to work toward and having the feeling of accomplishment after it's completed.
    7. Why do you want to join PoC: It sounds like a lot of fun and I'd love to contribute to a society that prides itself on teamwork. I have my own home on smp1, but it feels so solitary. I'd like to be a part of a thriving town with people around me that I can interact with and help.
    8. Which of the 8 commandments do you find most important: I like number 5 the most. I like the idea of a community that works together and provides services for each other, rather than every man for himself type of thing.
  5. NEW POSITION:

    Tisso aka WolfpackS45:

    Signed up for the job as "City development coordinator" (s. above and updated member list). The two of us had an amazingly inspiring tour through Limes Village and the South End. After all, I think Tisso is just the right person for the job. So, let's all give him a big hail as creative head and await in awe what is to come (dutch colonial style?, university facilities...bookshop, foodtruck).



    NEW SEAT IN THE COMMITTEE:

    SepTheKid is always around for Carthaga and a pillar of the community. From now on he is to be included in all major decisions, PMs and other conversations.

    Thanks Sep, for being such a reliable player of EMC

    (don't wanna double post again :) )

    Hey foxyblox,
    Thanks for the very nice application. Indeed we are striving for a strong community and please feel welcome to join (I invited you to the Starter's Guide with way description). But I must let you know, even though we have had great times with many people, the community is rather quiet at this point. It takes a bit of persistence and faith, but eventually you can meet great people, be part of big projects and make good friends.
    In that sense, just head out to Carthaga, the pearl of the eastern wild, enjoy the scenery and start your projects (hinthint get in touch with Tisso).
    It is a save place to accommodate you, offering food, shelter and much more.

    Hope to meet you soon,
    Kaizimir
  6. Thank you Kaizimir for this wonderful opportunity! First order of business is getting a building team together to improve existing buildings or build new ones. I am looking for up to 6 builders that are willing to help me with the further development of this great outpost. If you want to join the carthaga building team, send me a PM on the forum, together with some screenshots of your builds and I'll get back to you as soon as possible.

  7. AWW1010 already seems pretty much on board with this :)

    Oh also, can you share some of your plans with us? I know you have many, but only so that everybody gets an idea.

  8. Where should I start? ;)
    the first thing to do it get a building team together, that's the main thing. After that we can start building and replacing buildings. My ultimate goal is to have every building in carthaga fit in with the others and to make the city grow.

    I have been walking through Carthaga for the past day and I came up with some stuff that needs to be fixed, improved or built. This is what I got so far:
    1) finish the tower Haastregt started building in the North end
    2) build a wall around the redstone farm-area, just to hide it from sight
    3) improve some of the bridges
    4) make a new viewing platform to replace the old one
    5) build a new apartment building in the south end
    6) bookshop and bar in the south end
    7) build a University in the south end
    8) work on the development in Limes village
    9) find an area to develop into a new housing area

  9. How would a redstone farm work :confused:
  10. just farms that are operated by redstone signals, like a tree farm or a sugarcane farm
  11. Hello guys the build team sounds like a great idea and I would love to be apart of it! Also I'm good with natural landscaping and plot work!? So if u need help making new plots or levelling out ground or even building ground give me a shout :)
  12. Oh. Lol, I thought you meant literally farming redstone.
  13. Trying to show off, huh?

  14. 1. In-game name:

    Eastern Standard

    3. How long have you been playing Minecraft:
    About two years. (on playstation 3 and 4.. only a few months on PC)

    4. Have you ever been kicked or banned and what was the reason:
    Nope

    5. Do you plan to build/have a mega mall/another big project:
    No

    7. Why do you want to join PoC:
    The idea of a collaborative project-driven server is very appealing to me.

    8. Which of the 8 commandments do you find most important:
    Respect the creations of others. It's probably the most important on a community server since many of the other commandments would be unnecessary if it were followed.

  15. ?!?!? :confused:
  16. Sounds awesome. I will give a reply to a few of the points:
    1) Seems like AWW1010 is going to do this?
    4) Yes, this thing needs an upgrade ;)
    5) This is going to be a lot of work. I hope a few people can help with that
    7) I am working on this :)
    8) I send a PM to the residents there, whom are mostly derelict or banned :( As of now, I haven't got a response, so we might be able to proceed with this soon.
    9) Limes Village will over some new plots, but sooner or later we will need more, hehe

    Maybe AWW can help with point 9) as well, because there is this very nice hill close to the beach, which could be transformed in a prime real estate location. Let's discuss online, but I imagined something in the line of this:

    With nice sea view

    It is possible to farm redstone, because witches drop it :) There is a farm along the netherrail. Check it out.

    Hey,
    Thanks for your application. I invited you to the Starter's guide with important information and the way description.

    See you soon,
    Kaizimir
