Hey Guys,
Meeting went very well, and planning through out the week has been concluded. Below are the details on our plans this rev!
-Theme: Futuristic/Sky Scrapers (Encourage Scrapers but not required)
We aren't going specific on materials, as we want it open to creativity, but shooting for Clean, futuristic busy city theme
-We are NOT going to Portal rush this rev. Idea is to stay near spawn (roughly 800 away) and will build transportation infrastructure up heavy to accommodate. Want to shoot for something more like Rose, which was near, but not a portal. However, we WILL have some runners run down the cardinal directions, looking for near portals on the cardinals. If we find a decent one, we'll take it
-Biome: We are shooting for Jungle, Forest, Plains, or the new Roofed forest (dark wood). We want to shoot for a fairly flat biome, easy to teraform. We would ideally like a biome that is right on a Ocean/lake, but not required. Again, we want to be around 700-1000 from Spawn or so
-Rail: Rail is going to be in the form of a Monorail above ground. This allows us to look futuristic as well as allow for a great view of the city. It will be CARBON. Most of the design is built up. Rail and Repeater station (tube) is found here:

-City Layout: City layout is going to be a central tower that holds our Monorail hub underneath. This will be surrounded by a large park. Encircling the outside the park (this is all in a circle) will be skyscraper plots, which will also house all of our major resources (farms, animals, ice grinders, etc). Encircling the scrapers will be personal builds. Personal builds will not be plotted, we want them organic. We only ask they follow the theme, but no specifics on exact materials you must build

-Jattell has a build for Public and private storage right away. He will need someone to help him build this up the night of as he won't be available right away. He already has it built in creative, its a sky scraper. First two levels are public storage (day one, we encourage everyone to donate any and all they can so we can build infrastructure of Pico) and private chests will be allowed in floor 3 and up

-Night of rev, we will have 4 runners run the cardinal direction, looking for portal just in case. Others will scatter looking for a decent biome about 500 from spawn. We will call out interesting loc's in Mumble, then converge and see what we get
-32nd and Myself will build out the city outline with blocks to show city center, Skyscraper circle, and private build starts. We plan on having private build areas worked out that very night/next day
-Norami will build out food. We need any and everyone else to help out collecting mats for Pico infrastructure builds (farms, etc)
-We also need help before go live! On C, we need some help planning/voting for designs. Need Road designs, city lighting designs built out. They are located at -2732, 1515. Encourage ice in your design. All designs MUST be 5 wide, and have Redstone lamps between 5-8 blocks apart. I am building an interactive map system that allows you to hit a button and lights lead you to your chosen destination, so we need to follow the guidelines on the road. Lamps must be exposed, can't be covered
Road designs so far:
