Hello! For the future meetings.

Don't know whether someone replied it, but recently I've stumbled upon a Zedwork Rules Billboard (2x2 map) at the spawn (Bridgeways) and found the statement: "Explore the world Experience Minecraft 1.11! Become a llama farmer..." - this seems sligtly outdated... Should we do something with it?

Also I have 2 topics to suggest, albeit very raw:

First, developing the idea of LeFozzy about representation of out of Zen shops (mine included, sorry I am usually rather sleepy and distracted by the time the meeting begins). I would like to suggest the idea of embassies. Thus both major factions and individual regions (including important ones like end portal) will get a representation, providing new players with the insight of what is happening on the server in terms of "politics" and about other important landmarks. In addition I believe some of our "loud and dramatic ones" might find it interesting to exchange territory with other factions for the representation in their regions and vice versa.

Second, in the face of upcoming and (hopefully soon) imminent update, I am worried about preservation of our future coral reefs and icebergs. We all have the idea of how typical mesa or ice spikes biomes look like on lvs... So, can we hope for a regeneratable area in the overworld, that can be sacrificed without a second thought to brutal decimation and any future changes in world generation algorythms? Maybe with a mansion of Jhonies? As an extra benefit this might be intended to become a dedicated community mining area for any other resources with always up-to-date world generation chunks.

I hope these ideas produce something to ponder till the future meeting and I will be able to formulate a more structuraly sound concepts by that time.

This might be a great idea since it's always a shame to see old regions' deserts getting decimated for their sand (desert2 will always be in our hearts). However, the problem regeneration and newer world generation cause is the transition between old and new world-gen, it creates square ugly steep cliffs.
Ideally, the mojang team would have resolved this before it became a problem by simply making it so chunks that transition between world-gen form some sort of river with its surroundings smoothed like a valley. But hey, to them adding parrots is more is far more important, haha.

I did a quick search and found this : https://www.howtogeek.com/213964/how-to ... ew-biomes/

Not sure how applicable it would be to Zedwork (I'm guessing not at all) since I've seen some people settle within those ugly transitions and I'm afraid it would ruin their home.

This idea intrigues me, as it sounds like it will provide new players with an insight on both factions from the voices of each faction, and not just from the more active one. Though I'm not sure what you mean by exchanging territory for representation, it certainly sounds like a great idea, and I support it.

Changed this pre-agenda to the 10th, rather than copying topics across to a new pre-agenda.
Am lazy boi :3

I won't be able to make this meeting as someone was inconsiderate and decided to have a birthday.
Sorry for late notice; I noticed late.
