Okay, so, I've decided to make this year (2011) my most creative year of my blockland career. Kind of a new-years-resolution.
What this means is, I will try to build as many things as possible using Blockland, and then releasing them to the general public (saves included, yay!) to have fun with or to just have sitting around in their save folder gathering dust.
However, how often I release my creations is entirely based upon how often Internet is available to me on the Desktop computer. My only source of internet for right now is a Droid with PDANet, which is my moms, which she takes with her everywhere she goes. This is temporary, I assure you. Just until we get a router/modem.
As far as actually working on projects, that's pretty easy. Once I get off work, I'm free to work on them all day on single-player.
On the matter of hosting, I do not know. I am unsure if I can host from the Droid or not. Will have to test this matter sometime in the future.
Anywho, on to the Upcoming Projects portion of this.
Upcoming Projects
An assorted list of projects I hope to complete throughout the whole year.
1. The St. Louis Archway (ON HOLD)
A recreation of the Saint Louis Archway, including the underground stuff (gift shop, 'Journey to the Top' ticket booth, Museum, snack store, etc.).
I want to say this may be the most difficult project I will ever do, but I have hope. I just got back from visiting the damn place and exploring the whole thing. I even rode to the top.
ETA: 1 to 2 months
2. The U.S.S. Constitution (NOT STARTED)
A full-scale recreation of the famous U.S.S. Constitution. Used to fight the British (forget you sebster) warships off the coasts.
Nicknamed 'Old Ironsides' because sailors would witness the cannon balls bouncing off it's iron hull.
ETA: N/A
3. Giant Jars of Peanut Butter and Jelly (CANCELED)
At first, I thought this idea would be too silly and practical. Then I went over the thought again and decided to go ahead and pursue it anyway. It's basically two giant jars (about as tall as the Building 6 save), one filled with Smuckers grape jelly, the other with JIF Peanut Butter.
ETA: N/A
This project has been canceled. After rethinking the dimensions and design, there would be either very many flaws, or it would look ugly.
SPECIAL PROJECT: [BAN] Application
4. Dreadnaught Class 'Firewall' (IN PROGRESS)
A massive interstellar warship armed with state-of-the-art weaponry. 16 AA Turbolaser Turrets, 8 Light Pulsar Cannons, 3 Heavy Pulsar Cannons.
ETA: Unknown
That's it for now.
NOTE: I WILL BE ADDING MORE PROJECTS TO OP AS I GO.
SUGGESTIONS FOR FUTURE BUILDS WILL BE TAKEN. FEEL FREE TO GIVE ANY THAT COMES TO MIND.
