- The Idea -


To start off, I will need to cover the areas in "The Gameblock",





As you can see, this photo explains the areas that will be in the Gameblock, this next photo will show the base design of it. (Notice: Public Blockzone A will be located on the ground below Sector A, as you need trust invites to build on other's bricks.)



Now, The Gameblock is stationed in the air, this is because I don't want people going to the ground and building down there. It will be impossible to get to the ground, however you will have a good view.



Dedicated gamezones are for people who don't want to see builds in the sectors, vice versa for dedicated buildzones.

There will be a black and white checkers look inside of the sectors, same for the blockzones. If you would like to help build this, post on the thread and add me on RTB. Although I forgot to add it to the design, the central spawnzone will link to all sectors and blockzones.

The main idea of this is to have a game where people who can't host servers can make games here, all the while playing others games, and having fun.

That is the basic idea of The Gameblock. More info will be in-game when it opens.







- The Server -


The Server will be hosted by me, and will run from around noon to around midnight just about every day. As minigames do not save when the server is closed, I will not be using minigames for this. This both applies alot of restrictions, but removes alot as well. I'll be creating a addon to solve this, although it's a longshot, it can be done.

The max players will be 20-30 players, just got a new (and very fast) internet connection, so it should be able to hold that many without any lag as long as nobody is downloading something (big) on this connection.






- The Management -


There will be no admin applications, and only people who I get to know well and frequent the server will even have a chance at getting admin, till I get more admins I will be on the server alot and will make some games for it.

In any case, you will however be able to report people on this thread, but you will need screenshots and atleast 1 witness.






- The Rules -


Not many rules will be on here until the server is finished, but I can name a few for sure:

-Respect others, don't start insulting a person just because they messed you up in a deathrun on accident.
-Try not to build too near others work. Nobody wants someone limiting their building space.
-Create a baseplate to build on. I won't be able to put your build in Sector CB/C/D if you do not.
-Don't try to break into admin rooms or Blockzone Z, if you do then you will be banned (for atleast a day) immediately.

virtual boy graphics are ugly, change the font's color to normal

love the concept, great looking thread.
only thing i'm thinking is that you're stretching the idea behind sectors A, B, and C.
i wouldn't think you would need an entirely new space for builds made by admins (sector A), especially if you only plan to hire your own admins over time.

you could have one sector be the construction section, one sector be the submitted constructions section, and have two sectors that host two types of games (like sector D).

i guess you can say that this server, was a bright idea 8)

get it because the colors are bright :DD???

your right, I don't really need a entirely new section for admin-only games, I'm only adding it because often people get tired of searching for well-made games, so basically the section is just "Hi, here are some good games you can start out by playing" kind of thing.

each sector is 9 62x cubes in each direction, and they will all most likely have atleast 3 layers, so there won't be much of a need for 2 hosting sectors.

also, I was gonna make the text color normal, but it didn't match with the logo or the pictures, and the pictures look ugly black.

He forgot to make the links red...god dammit...

well almost done finished the first layer. wasted a couple of hours trying to figure out how to make games without minigames.

re-designed the game, and changed the colors.

What

making it float sounds like a good idea.
i like this so far.

finished making the sector portal, and just finished making the basis of the Event Blockzone.
gonna post some pictures soon.
