The Savannah Springs Warp [co-ords: 5911 5815] is currently the most recently opened Warp Town on LVS, despite its origins as one of the oldest warps. The warp is located in the Southeastern Quadrant (Positive X, Positive Z) in a savanna biome, situated between a desert, a swamp, an ocean bay and a birch forest. The warp opened in April of 2016 as a New Player Warp, cycling out Swamp and bumping Forest Hills up to a Zedling Warp. The original Savannah Warp was built and managed mostly by Suzie1, k1z5 and CYBORGSABBERZ. It was renovated and rebuilt into Savannah Springs by HOMINIX, Suzie1, Pettmol and Dax23333. iij2000x became mayor in January 2021, following Dax stepping down.

Savannah Springs Landmarks

Savannah Sam

Upon entering Savannah Springs, you will see Savannah Sam, the warp's trusty Lion mascot, built by HOMINIX.

Obsidian Christmas Tree

Located behind the warp pad, this Christmas Tree was built by Suzie1 before Christmas in 2014. The Christmas tree was cast from lava in a mold, then cooled with water to form into its obsidian shape.

Suzie Head

Originally a Christmas present from HOMINIX, the floating Suzie1 head celebrates Suzie's hard work and love for Savannah over the years.

Savannah Springs Council Hall

This council hall sits atop the large hill near town center, built from acacia logs, planks and orange glass to reflect the savanna theme. It was built by HOMINIX in December 2015.

History of Savannah

Origins

Savannah was originally created as a wilderness warp, and existed as just the warp pad, with player builds peppering the general area soon after. At this time, warps didn't have mayors, thus there was little organization or city planning. Suzie1, k1z5 and CYBORGSABBERZ eventually started to organize the area somewhat, designing and building a Nether Hub and laying out some rudimentary roads.

Retirement

Due to Savannah being oldest active warp, and Zedwick's desire to only have 4 active warps at a time, Savannah was retired to make way for Hayfever Hills warp. Sadly, Savannah had become virtually unused as many of its occupants had become inactive.

Savannah Rejuvenation Mayoral Campaign

After working on the Public Nether Farm, Suzie1 discussed wanting to renovate the defunct Savannah warp with HOMINIX, seeing potential in the area's flat geography and its sparse population. Suzie1 and HOMINIX ran against fisher2760, ThatNurd and DarthDuck84. Suzie1 and HOMINIX were ultimately elected in November 2015.

Renovation

The new mayors started to renovate the area around the warp pad, building new roads and mapping out the region. Many abandoned or incomplete builds were demolished with permission from Zedwick to make way for new residents. A council hall was built on the hill near the center of the city, along with a large lion head, later dubbed Savannah Sam to celebrate Savannah's rebirth as Savannah Springs.

Reopening as a New Player Warp

After a discussion about Forest Hills becoming crowded, it was decided that it should graduate to a Zedling Warp. The council voted that Savannah Springs should become the new New Player Warp. As Suzie1 had become inactive at that time, HOMINIX appointed Pettmol and Dax2333 as co-mayors of Savannah Springs. The council approved of their appointments as co-mayors.

Nether Hub

Original Savannah Hub

The original Savannah Hub featured a large central room centered around four nether portals arranged in a cube shape, as has become tradition for Nether Hubs on the server. The hub had four small, differently colored wings branching off from the central room, each with four tunnel hookup doorways. The original hub was built, designed and managed by CYBORGSABBERS, Suzie1 and k1z5.

Savannah Springs Hub

The new Savannah Springs Hub features a large central room decorated with a grass floor and artificial blue sky and sun, centered around the traditional, cubic nether portal arrangement. The hub has eight differently colored wings, much like the Spawn Hub. Due to this detail, Savannah Springs Hub has the most tunnel hookups of any Warp Hub. The green wing of the Savannah Springs hub features a tunnel (designed and built by BengalBoi) that leads to Spawn Hub. The Hub was designed and built by HOMINIX, and the hub wings were built and designed by HOMINIX and Dax23333.
