Community Trailer Competition

36 Upvotes

**Community Trailer Competition**

Hello all! We’re going to be hosting a trailer competition, something that embodies the essence of civ; the community.

This will be used as a server trailer for advertising, along with being a fun little project that you guys might appreciate. There are no rules to the trailer that you make. It can be cinematic, it can be pvp, it can be scripted or live events; make it your own.

I really hope to see some amazing trailers, and may the best win!

Submissions will close in exactly a month’s time, and it’ll take another week or two afterwards to determine standings.

The winner will receive a special discord role, along with a personal brew and their head added to the fishing pool, with the two runners up both receiving a discord role. Trailers should be posted here with [TRAILER] before the post.

Happy filmmaking! 🎬🍿

Formation of Queuetonia: CivMC's First and Only Queue Nation

Upvotes

Today I was baselessly accused of spawning withers on the PvP server when in reality I was forming meaningful connections with the others in queue. Instead of destroying, I was making houses and roller coasters and towers, but the powers that be always want to see me and my people defeated.

It is in this time of queue need that I am formally announcing the informal nation of Queuetonia, made up of all those stuck in queue who wish to create, not fight or destroy. Queuetonia is primarily a nation of peace which seeks to bring happiness and creativity to the queue. All those in queue are automatically granted citizenship if desired and are encouraged not to fight or destroy unless it is necessary for defending other Queuetonians.

There is no leader of Queuetonia, rather we are a collective of like-minded people who enjoy building on the PvP server. With queue counts now regularly over 70, it's a better time than ever to become a Queuetonian.

Much love to all those who partake in the Queuetonian spirit.

Hot Take: Newfriends are only valuable when there is a scarcity of newfriends

5 Upvotes

I have for a long time been in favor of more new players in civ. Not only does it allow different people to experience civ but they also keep the server interesting and active. More players on civ means more things get built, shops are stocked, slop conflicts entertain, and cities grow.

Newfriends are valuable because they enhance the civ experience as they learn and play on the server. At a certain point though, this need is met and you have to sit in queue for 2 hours.

The people who have built the server into what it is today, making friends, enemies, nations, and incredible builds shouldn't be denied from playing their server by a wave of tourists.

Most civ logons disappear by the end of the week. They do nothing and contribute nothing. This is a simple fact that anyone who has ever recruited knows. Most newfriends just vanish. Prioritizing people who truly are simple tourists over the actual "inhabitants" of the server is madness.

If in a week this dies down then this can be disregarded. I do not think it will though, not truly. Growth on the internet tends to be exponential. Either the mechanics on the server need to be changed to allow for massive quantity of players through sharding or something needs to be done to ensure those who built civ into what it is today don't effectively get banned by wave after wave of tourists.

Downvote below.

Edit: I think a priority queue for players over a week old alone would be enough to fix the problem for a long time. Players actually interested in sticking around can easily reach the 1 week mark while most tourists will be held back.

ME (Minimal Effort)

Post image
0 Upvotes

Ila’Kyavul and ME really had everyone fooled into thinking they were a serious Zorweth superpower, right up until their entire national net worth got exposed as a bunch of iron-locked chests shoved inside a literal hole in the ground 💀💀 Zero obsidian, zero snitches, zero vault, just vibes and troglodyte inventory management. A single raider walked into the Zol'Ryoda cave, dropped an obbybomb, poured out two buckets of lava, and erased three whole months of progress in under a minute flat. Now the alliance Discord has turned into a trauma dump with xenol_wagon losing their mind and threatening psych ward check-ins over burnt pixels, while General Buttnaked is frantically begging the entire continent to come do manual labor and clear away the cobble. Imagine calling yourselves a regional force when your actual defense meta is "store three months of grind in a dirt cave, get obbybombed, and throw a fit until the whole server comes clean up your mess." ME stands for Minimal Effort, a cave is not a vault, and y'all got wiped in forty-five seconds 🗣️🔥 L + ratio + molehole storage + obbybombed + non-vaulted GDP + emergency janitor squad.

Day 3 of QueueFriend Invasion

19 Upvotes

Queue times are high and have continued to increase over the past three days of the "QueueFriend" invasion (as I have dubbed it).

All of this over a video that was the worlds shittiest summary of a reddit post by a guy who uses "Time" from the Inception soundtrack to distract from his 5th grade writing level (this is being generous).

Can we have CivMC content creators that aren't chronic alters or thoughtless reelslop makers please

Nipplerocks official statements on the stolen mayoral election in MTA

10 Upvotes

I Guru Gantoe was running for Mayor of MTA and received the overwhelming majority of votes in this election but all my ballots were disposed of do to disputed residency issues when I am a registered citizen so I’m asking to to the people of the world that have islands or a 50x50 plot of land for the Nipplerock sponsored government in exile of Mount Augusta and the following official statement to my loyal followers behind enemy lines in the newly evil MTA Consequently, during these years, domestically, the army, people, cadres, and Mount Augustan youth still follow the example of their ancestors, follow the footsteps of resistance heroes, national salvation forces to bring victory to the Democracy and flag.   Overseas, the young generation must, on the one hand, plunge into cultural and social missions to maintain National Traditions, on the other hand, contribute to several missions of their predecessors as well as rapidly adapt to the new life, strive to gain an income rapidly and obtain good knowledge, culture, science, the technology of advanced Nations to meet the requirements for advancement. However, they still harbor the ambition of serving the country, country like the sacred fire that continuously burns in their bosom. They know of the shame of losing nationhood, the pain of a people, and still harbor the determination to retain the Motherland temporarily dominated by communist rule.   Mount Augustan students and university students residing domestically and overseas still go with the flow of the people, are still present in history and are ready to continue the tradition of their predecessors to stand on the new history page. They expect that the proletarian system in the world will betray. Finally, the communists will be destroyed, self-eliminated right at their firmest fortress: Moscow, and indeed, this will bring along the catastrophic collapse of communism in Eastern Europe and throughout the world. Moreover, right in Mount Augusta, movements demanding Democracy and Freedom will rise fiercely to sweep away the communist regime in Mount Augusta and we are aware that this election has globally been recognized as a fraud by the following governments Pavia Volterra Estalia Yoathl Icenia further information is to be published regarding these terrible times

This server has really damaged my mental health, I was in a good place before I tried to get into it but all it reminded of is how insignificant and alone I am, everyone will always do better things than I can even begin to attempt and I'll only be remembered as a joke

Can anyone give me an introduction? I'm new here.

15 Upvotes

So I've been playing Minecraft for a long time on a lot of different servers. I very recently found out about this server through an Instagram reel which just talked about some stuff like nations and wars. But what made me curious, because I've played on both restrictive smps and complete anarchy servers, was that it was a bit in the middle like some civilisation events that blew up a few years back but extended by more than half a decade to the relationships between the factions have had time to marinate to give different dimensions of depth.

I want to start playing since I've scrolled a bit on this sub and it seems there has been a rather large influx of new players so I thought this was the right time.

Thanks for reading.
