This meeting kicked off with an interesting turn of events, following Spectatre's departure for off-brand soft drinks and cake. SooprJ and Memery went at it, giving all they got, until SooprJ drew a gun, more specifically scissors, and won the host. Who knew musical host could be so riveting?

Topics

I - KhasOrn and the great Forest... Hills - KhasOrn

KhasOrn wanted to provide a world download to his vision of a revamp to the Foresthills warp. Upon recent talk in meetings, it was noted that Foresthills was incomplete, therefore spawning some creative building and a world download by KhasOrn. Eventually it was decided that there should be screenshots to show the council, as not everyone would be willing to open up a new download. This topic was postponed until screenshots were gathered, pending revisit later in the meeting.

II - Mansions, Mansions, where are they now? - ABParadigm

After some level of talk on the pre-agenda, it was discussed that woodland mansions are a missing feature on the current LVS map. Though this was discussed in the past, the recent ocean content was far overshadowing the mansions, and ABP wanted to remind everyone that yes, they do exist, and he wanted them. This was due to some missing advancements, specifically Monsters hunted, lacking three mobs, and Postmortal. Not that anyone wants to die, but it would be nice to be able to do all of the advancements. There were a few suggestions, a few fixes, and a few problems far outweighing the former two. Zedwick said he will do something, though! Who knows what?

III - Forests, Hills, and more of the same - KhasOrn

We briefly revisited this topic to hear KhasOrn say that the screenshots did not do it justice. Though agreed, we urged Khas to take some screenshots just so we could get a handle on it. The topic was again postponed, whilst Khas gathered screenshots.

In this segment of time while KhasOrn gathered screenshots, a number of different things happened. One227 regaled us with some of the coming 1.13 content, along with the shock and horror of some of them. Additionally, there was a beautiful musical interlude of Africa by Toto, conducted by Memery. In the chaos ABP thought we were singing Hold the Line, and _Skyhorse called for more order, which never was achieved. ABP had a topic to fill the time, but no one listened, not even ABP.

IV - ForestHills III - Revenge of the Spruce - KhasOrn

After a long awaited fifteen minutes, KhasOrn got back to the council with the screenshots. A few !ZF commands and refreshes later, we were graced with a beautiful spruce building, with diorite, white glass and glowstone, and small trees adjacent. It was agreed that this revamp is beautiful, however some of the more official business had to be dealt with. The current mayor, MsKizz, has been somewhat inactive and it was decided that there should be a small vote of sorts in a later meeting, not much longer than within a month. To paraphrase: The council would like to take over Foresthills, however no action was taken yet pending the community's hearing. A vote will occur within the next two meetings, depending on how long it takes for the community to get up to speed. In this time more design work will be conducted, and more screenshots shown to the community as well.

V - A Cow in the Nether - Earthcow

Earthcow wanted to let everyone know how close Swamp warp is to River Bend! This warp is 350 blocks away, roughly, and is very similar to how close Extreme hills warp is to Hayfever Hills. It was suggested that a nether tunnel be constructed between the two, followed by a few concerns, specifically about the River Bend hub shape. In other words, maybe!

Final Announcements, Closing Announcements, Clozing AnnouncementZzz - Zedwick

The next casual build-off will be held on the 24th of June, 2018, at 4 PM BST, lasting until 9 PM BST! Oh, wait - the casual buildoff was cancelled! Instead, the FIRST casual buildathon will be held on the 24th of June, 2018, at 4 PM BST, lasting until 9 PM BST!
The next BIG UHC will be held on the 10th Of June, at 6 PM BST! After SooprJ and Memery went at it earlier, Memery stated that men are 80% more likely to pick rock when playing Rock Paper Scissors. Following Memery's lack of knowledge of what women would pick, he stated he did not fight women. Be sure to wear Aravero's skin in the next episode of U... H... C...! Coming this fall to Channel Z, home of Channel Z news! Part of the Sneaky Network.
