Hello community,

Polish up your shovels, pickaxes, and get rid of the splinters on the workbench. It's time to stretch those muscles and get ready to spend a day, a weekend, a week or two building in town x. Get your decoration chests and resources ready to be put to good use.

Town x is looking for experienced builders who are familiar with a natural / medievil (or rather, not a modern) style of building. Do you have experience with creating a nice and cozy looking fishing area / docking area on the shoreline and have the time in March to build something awesome for us? Then you're certainly the person we're looking for.

There are currently 9 plots (See video) that I will put up as embassy plots. If we pick you for the job you can claim those as yours and you can get started.

You're free to terraform the environment to fit your creativity, to build up or down a little bit if needed. Just use common sense.

You will make the builds on behalf of town x. They become our property so to speak. After the build is finished we're free to customize it, take it down, rebuild it, sell the plots to players who want to live there. So it seems logical to compensate you for your troubles. And so we will.

You will get some money to help you repair your items and cover the cost of some of your resources that you yourself will supply. And you will get some money for simply taking the time to build on the plots. But, since we're paying, I think it's fair to say it should be more than a dirt hut or a square house with a roof made out of 16 logs of wood.. you know what I mean.

We can offer you a quarter million nbz to cover your time, your costs, resources, and to say thank you for the hard work in March.

We're looking for a friendly and cozy looking place with a creative approach, decorations, and basically something that's clear some effort has been put into it. Please only reply to this thread if you have the building know-how and experience.

What about credits? I am like davinci and demand my swag .. ok stop.. don't worry. You're free to leave a sign locked to a block (that's not in the way if ppl would live there) with your name on it. What is ok : build made by yourName, from town whatever.. What is not ok: like these builds? join town whatever (no advertisements,. basically).

In February I made a thread with some additional information, in case you're looking for more hiring jobs (there will be, keep an eye on the forums). https://www.noobscraft.com/market/heads-up-town-x-hiring-builders-in-march/

Can I apply Floris?
Yes! Just reply to this thread.. and in a day (or so) I will update the thread. Sometimes we will pick someone based on knowing how they build, or simply because they were the first to reply: Please do not take it personal if you don't get picked.

Can I build with my friends?
Sure, we pay you.. if you want your friends to help you or pay them to help you.. that's fine. Just know you're responsible: If they grief the plot, I will come hunt you both down.

Wait, I have to use my own resources?
Yep, I am not always online, and waiting for me to show up to give you a beacon for example is unrealistic. I hope instead of paying 50k, I pay 4x as much for this job to help compensate in costs/resources.

This is made for town x right, it will be like .. yours. When we're done?
Yep, you are simply helping us out adding some more things to our town.

What if I really like what I made, can I copy it to my own plot/wild/town?
If YOU made it, you are free to copy that. Yeah, I think that's more than fair.
If YOU did not make it, then we consider it stealing town designs. We play fair. <3

I went to the fishing spot but couldn't claim any plots?!
Please wait for me to get online. That way we can guarantee the right person gets the plots.

Anyway. Thank you for reading this, get motivated, sharpen those tools and keep an eye on the forums, there will be a couple of threads per week(end) surely.

Questions? well, ... shoot!

I know how you build killjoy, and you're the first to reply. What is there to stop me from saying: you're hired.
I will go set things up and poke you in-game to get started. You should have the quarter million noobz soon.

have fun!

Wait does this mean there are no more you said there was 9 right because I just came up with an idea of a mini ocean monument for fishing does that mean I cannot do that? If so then next time could you do 2-3 plots so other people can do it instead of first come first serve because I just woke up and saw the post.

Glad to hear, have fun building and I am curious to check it out in a few days to get surprised by progress :)

The whole fishing area was 9 plots, it's 1 job. Yeah it's taken already. But I really like the idea you gave me and I think there's room for that as well. Let me first start something else soon though :)

If anybody wants to see the progress that kill has made, and my attempts to participate by throwing some houses around ..
/town spawn x and then follow the iron path: go straight. Or ask for a tpa

There's a bit more to do; we have some paths to make, more patches of 'things' and some trees and other greenery, maybe connect a few houses underground together and a glass-underground viewing area where we can have some tea and cookies.

We can still think of a million things to add, but we've made quite some progress this month. The dull looking area got some fishing stuff, then i terraformed the area a bit. Then killjoy worked her magic on the new situation. And then i put a few houses down, and she helped decorate and merge them into the nature around it. Then we just worked together on tiny little things and today we've made some underground stuff as well as further ex.. you know what, words don't do justice:

Review 11/10, would hire again. This area turned out really great. It was super fun to play together and build this and it went beyond what I asked for and matched the style Mistic_ice and I really enjoy building in as well.

Marking this thread as completed and locking it, but I invite everybody to come check it out by going to /t spawn x, and going to your right. Or just ask us in-game.
