Topics
Rock down down Regulation Avenue - Memery
Following on from the Netan formerly known as Masterboy's suggestions to re-work the council regulations to make them clearer to read, Memery had worked on a template. Despite not being at the meeting he posted his work in the pre-agenda for everyone to review.
All present agreed that the new format was easier to scan through, and an improvement on the original design. With no objections it was agreed that this would become the new format for the regulations. Yay!
It was also mentioned that the 'previous meeting notes' link was a little difficult to find, so 'the wiki people' were tasked with doing that. Wiki people, ho!
Simply havin' a wonderful Christmas Hunt - Neytan
Neytan announced the official start date of the Christmas Present Hunt will be Wednesday, 23rd December!
In open areas of Warp Towns will be barrels with tokens/shards. You can collect and trade these to get three of the same, in order to obtain a present!
A total of 51 shulkerboxes will be up for grabs, so you can hunt to your heart's content -a forum thread will soon be up giving more details, so watch this space!
I Can Show You a Warp - TheMrPayne
Payne casually pointed out that our last warp town, River Bend, hs been in place for a few years, and maybe it would be nice to get a new warp town in the pipeline?
Council threw many suggestions of biomes that could feature, while thumbnig down the idea of waiting until the Caves update. After some polite nudging, Zed agreed to the idea, which sprang a new run of suggestions on locations (bearing in mind the current warps, frequency of builds in certain areas, and how it would need to be attached somehow to the central Nether Hub)
Zed assured the council that he and Lady would select a prime spot, that would attempt to entertain in terms of biome. Perhaps a taiga? Watch this space!
Such a lovely place (such a lovely place) - DarthDuck
As attentive readers will know, Darth has been hard at work organising getting the new Beginner Hotel built. He has put a list together of the materials needed, and handily put them in book form for everyone :D
People quickly pointed out items they could take care of, with some keen beans providing materials during the meeting!
Sneaks suggesting a forum 'checklist' so people could see what was still needing to be taken care of, which was agreed. Any and all help welcome, so keep an eye out!
In addition, the Beginner Farm been getting a lot of renovations and with the hotel being rebuilt there will be more shuffling afoot, so all donations welcome! there is a book at the beginner farm listing the things needed, as well as a call for suggestions of what else could be added
There was some concern that the new players weren't finding the farm straight away, with a suggestion that maybe information be posted in the warp towns, giving new players enough time to find their feet before getting to discover its wonders.
Itsy Bitsy Tiny Build Tour - Dax
The Tiny Build Tour stop on Hellscape has concluded - thanks to everyone for taking part!
Dax had a minor grumble that the slogan 'we don't have phantoms' would have to be changed, but other than that was very happy with all the builds!
Judging & Prizes will be sorted before the next meeting, hype hype hype
Tell ol' Zedwick, let my Daxy go - Dax
Dax has been mayor of Savannah Springs for ages. Dax does not want to be mayor of Savannah any more. Previously his plea for the sweet release of mayor-death has fallen on death (and/or laughing) ears - however, this time he was fortunate as both zedwick and council did not object to his stepping down.
That means warp mayor elections will start up again! In the first instance, a forum thread will be posted, so that anyone who wishes to run for election of Savannah Springs can register their interest. At the next council meetings, members will be able to endorse candidates, leading to a forum vote.
