News and Updates:

September 08, 2007 5:30PM - Sorry for this bad news but I am getting less active because of school. You will see me from time to time but work and school put together means not much time for blockland, but I will try my best to maintain activeness, and keep everything running smoothly.

August 31, 2007 7:18AM - Árgos, Greece is having some trouble finding it's treasure, and the Loonie Pirates are after it! You must find the treasure and follow the clues to recuse the Árgos towns people's treasure before the pirates do in the new quest "Adventures of Árgos!" (Coming Soon to the 44 Server!)

June 10, 2008 12:00pm EST - We are back in action people, sooner or later there will be a website for 44 showing everything that you could ever think of.



About 44

Theme: The theme for 44 is Greek.

44 is a very common clan around the blockland community and it is very popular amongst the other clans out there such as MoTE and USSR competing to be the best. Although USSR is deffinitely the well known clan for it's unqui/skilled builders, and MoTE for thier clan being in RTB and Blockland Retail. But enough about them, 44 is a skilled based clan and we do all sorts of stuff. We are a growing clan with some of the most skilled building players in blockland. We strive to make the best creative builds. We mostly do things such as landscape, ruins, caves, etc... We don't really do city builds unless we are bored and feel like making one. We will do the best we can to make it to the top, but if we do not, it's okay because 44 will be here till the very end!

Story About The Greek and the 44 Members

One of the great paradoxes of history is that the next hesitant advance of European civilization - the development of the first city-states - took place not on the fertile open central European plains, but in a remote island to the south of the Aegean Sea which was completely lacking in metal resources. While the glittering mounted warrior-princes of central Europe dissipated their creative energy in warefare, a highly cultured yet peaceful society, built on trade and an agricultural surplus, emerged on Crete.

The history of Greece can be traced back to Stone Age hunters. Later came early farmers and thecivilizations of the Minoan and Mycenaean kings. This was followed by a period of wars and invasions, known as the Dark Ages. In about 1100 BC, a people called the Dorians invaded from the north and spread down the west coast. In the period from 500-336 BC Greece was divided into small city states, each of which consisted of a city and its surrounding countryside.

They didn't have much builders in some of the city states, thus a group of men searched for the top builders of the world to come and help them as the Dorians kept invading the cruel towns and cities of Greece. They found fourty-four of the most skilled builders in all of the world. Thus was the creation of the newest union known as the 44.

44 was a union that made one of the greatest scupltures/landscapes people had ever incounter in their lives. The Dorians heard about these people and rushed to find them. Once they did, Hell broke loose, and a war came down in Athens, Greece in 453 BC. The Dorians had 500 men, as the 44 of course only have fourty-four men. The war was brutial, and blood was everywhere. The Dorians lost 445 men, but 44 lost 39 of their men.

2,460 years later, in the year of 2007, a long traveler by the name of Lavish decided to bring back the 44 union in blockland retail. Over the years he has found 5 (Including himself) of the worlds greatest builders. So far they have impressed many of the people in blockland with their fantanstic builds. Thus the 44 clan was reunited!

Cool stuff, This is the rare occasion that I approve this clan and encourage it to strive, I've seen some of your builds they are pretty good. Speaking of landscapes and mountains, you should drop by my server if you see it, we're making a crayon, (canyon/mountain) Its looking really good so far, and theres even an abandoned mine shaft in it. Anyways I hope to see more of your guy's builds and last but not least, it should be clan 42.
http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=42
Thats just my opinion.

See, I came from Gunbound which had a guild called 44, and so I came here with it, and so 42 seems odd, and 44 just makes more since. Don't know why it does but it does to me and it means NS meaning Nice Shot.


But thanks for complimenting me and my soon to be clan, and of course I'll swing by and make some kind of landscape in your canyon. ;]

Its a group build me ronin and wedge are maikin, but you can view it if you like.

Good luck Lavish, sounds like the makings of a good honest clan!

Yeh ok, I'll check it out sooner or later, But I have been in your server in the beginning when you first started it.

btw you may want to revise the spelling of grammar.

- Speak correct English (Meaning Grammer and Spelling is required)
Should be:
- Speak proper English (Meaning grammar and spelling is required)

aye that'd be grand.

I'm sorry, I must of didn't revise well enough, but it shouldn't make to much of a difference, but if it is a big deal to you guys then I'll change it. ;]

I guess I feel dumb, oh well, I just changed it. (Can't be perfect.)

+Singapura+ is our new member for 44. Welcome to you and hope you will enjoy being with us.

Read everything on the EVENT before registrating


Thank you, Lavish

I support this clan.
This clan feels like it will be one of the great clans in almost 6 months.

Recruiting People As Of Today-We are on the search for some really talented builders, and who meet the curriculum. Read the first post of this thread and do as it says.

Team DM Being Worked On-We are doing a clan project of a 4 tower team deathmatch for other blockland players to play in. We have been working hard on it to provide a fun but death dafying DM, and hope you participate in this event.



- 44 Management

Hello.
Now that I read through your clan description this sounds very interesting, I can tell that you put a lot of time and effort into your clan, and it won't turn into another one of those 5 minute clans.
I'm quite interested in joining, although I do not have many finished builds.
There is the hell gate that I've built in your server, and there are these:
http://www.blockland.us/smf/index.php?topic=14496.0 - a short video. more pics at the bottom.
http://www.blockland.us/smf/index.php?topic=15365.0 - for the love of god please do not go to the second page. (I wuz having mah period loel)
If you would like me to still build an app for you clan, it will be my pleasure.
Hope to see you soon.
