This topic will cover all events in Utopia beforehand. This includes: All competitions (other than the Towny Games, that has its own thread), drop parties, and any other event that may/will happen in town.

Current events: none

Hello everyone. This is an informational thread on something I'm calling the Noobscraft Towny Games, a spinoff of the Hunger Games, but with a Noobscraft twist: it is a competition between towns and nations. Each arena must follow the arena guidelines, 8 chunks by 8 chunks. All of the towns in the Teltido Nation will definitely be competing in these games, but other nations will be required for the full potential of the game.

ARENA GUIDELINES:
1. Arenas must be 8 chunks by 8 chunks.
2. Towns must have at least 3 arenas.
3. Towns must be in a nation to of at least 3 towns to compete.

The tournament will take place once every two weeks and will go like this:

Round 1: Getting the tributes from your town. Up to 24 members in the round are allowed. The last two standing will move onto Round 2.

Round 2: The town tributes will fight other town tributes from their own nation. The winner will bring their fellow tribute to the Final Round. Maximum 24 tributes per National Round.

CHAMPIONSHIP ROUND: The nation champions will face each other to see who the champion of that Towny Games is. Last person standing wins all the glory. Maximum of 12 people in the championship arena.

If you are a NATION owner, you can follow the code below and have your nation and all its towns entered in the games.

Name of Nation:
How many Towns are in your Nation?
Will you follow the arena guidelines?
Will you follow the other stated rules?
Also, every six months, all of the winners of each Towny Games will fight in the Tournament of Champions. Any one who wins the Final Round once can not enter again until the Tournament of Champions is done.

The official rules and pictures of the prototype arenas will be posted at a later date.

It would be cool if there was a "gift player" option for tokens or things you buy with tokens, so then people could gift their friends. Also you should make 1 token be worth like 25 noobz or something so if we need money and have no other use for the tokens, we could use them to get some money.

It has been quite a while since I have given much information on Utopia, mostly just little things like what the town lighting system is, what the name will be, how I plan to build the pre-built houses, what parts of town there will be. After much thought (and many trashed ideas), with the help of SmithB0118, zebra903, and deebles17, I have an idea for an Events Area. The area will include:

2 Checkers and 2 Chess boards (Info below)
PvP arenas
Spleef
Dungeon Escape Course (Info below)
Different Holiday Themed Roller Coasters with different objectives (Info below)
Shoot the Sheep (Info Below)
Parkour Mountain
Deebles's Town Mining Caves (operated by deebles17)
Three Noobscraft Towny Games Arenas (Sort of like Hunger Games arenas)

Checkers/Chess: Play on a 24X24 wool Checkers/Chess board and try to vanquish your opponent using the carpets as pieces.

Dungeon Escape Course: Use your wits and problem solving skills to solve riddles and puzzles and escape out of Dark Lord Eval's Dungeons!

Shoot the Sheep: Try to get the perfect opening to shoot and kill the sheep in your kill box before anyone else kills theirs! You will be standing in a glass box with pistons pushing and pulling on the floors, ceilings and walls of the box, with 1 place to shoot out of. Kill your sheep before anyone else kills their sheep and you get a prize! Maximum 4 players per game, as there will only be 4 boxes.

Roller Coasters (WARNING: YOU CAN LOSE YOUR ITEMS IN THESE COURSES!!!):
 
The "Utopia Thrill Ride" is the regular roller coaster. In it, you must switch levers to keep your train on the tracks and keep you from falling to your death and drowning. It is open year-round.

The Halloween-themed "Haunted Mineshaft" Ride is only during open during the fall months. You must fend off the monsters as well as staying aware of when to jump out of the speeding cars going fast into huge drops and pits of lava or dark rooms where monsters will kill you. In addition, you must find your way in the dark through Jack O. Lantern's Labyrinth, and once you get to the end you can finally see daylight once more.

The Christmas-themed "Rooftop Flight" roller coaster is only open during the winter months. In it, you must throw dirt blocks into brick chimneys, where they will activate a pressure plate, allowing you to continue. You must read the signs and try to solve the questions and get the "presents" (the dirt blocks) in the right place and outwit the infamous Boogieman and his tricky traps and pitfalls!

The Easter-themed "Easter Egg Hunt" roller coaster is only opened during the spring months and will be a roller coaster with no ways to die, just flick switches to find the Easter Eggs and move on to the next part of the ride.

Our Summer ride will not be announced until the winter, although construction on it will most likely already have begun.

Another thing I wanted to tell you about is where I plan for Utopia to be. I am hoping for it to be in a large extreme hills/mountain biome, near/around a lake or ocean so my residents can fish and boat in the water. The Town Spawn will be a mountain (Yes, I said A MOUNTAIN, not IN A MOUNTAIN) named Mount Utopia, and it will be hollowed out for Town Staff offices, rule board, notice board (what events will be/are taking place in Utopia), Grande Meeting Hall, and Town Storage (only available to plot-master, architect, TA, Sub-Mayor, or Mayor) and will have levels of access according to your position. (Plot-master room leads into Architect room, where only Architect or higher can access, Architect room leads into TA room, where only TAs and above can access, and so on).

I will add pictures once more work has been done to these ideas.

See you in V6,

This is for Town Staff Application for Utopia V6. I have already picked part of my staff team. My staff team is going to have to be quite large since I hope to accommodate so many people and have so many things to do/keep running. I need 25 TAs, 10 Architects, 5 plot-masters, 5 recruiters. Note: This is NOT including the town staff I have already picked, so the numbers will be lower at the end of this post, where I will post the amount I need INCLUDING the Town Staff I already have. If you wish to apply for a Staff post, follow the code at the very bottom.

So far I have this for a Town Staff:

Mayor: HarryX11 (Obviously)

Sub-Mayors: SmithB0118 (Co-Mayor, Does Redstone Projects for Town), deebles17 (Co-Mayor, Head Plot-Master), zebra903 (Sub-Mayor, Head Recruiter), 500manhunt and stickeyfingers (Co-Head TAs). All posts for Sub-Mayors filled. Not recruiting other Sub-Mayors unless I lose the majority of these people.

Current Town Assistants:v500manhunt and stickeyfingers (Head TAs), failcade (Head Architect), cat19096, winkalina, HerrAir, JaredSW12, flyinghotdog1, joeyishar, and somejob. 10/25 filled posts, 14 spots available.

Current Architects: failcade (Head Architect), el_roux, Wooden_Lampshade, aXxIgoRawrxXa, Mrsparks727, Nat3Nipp13Hair, and Tiberius1999. 7/10 filled posts, 3 spots available.

Current Plot-Masters: deebles17 (Head Plot-Master). 1/5 filled posts, 4 spots available.

Current Recruiters: zebra903 (Head Recruiter). 1/5 filled posts, 4 spots available.

These people were chosen because: A. I know them in real life, B. They are TAs in Snakevenom, C. They have won the Architecture competition in Snakevenom, or D. (In the case of failcade) One of the builders of Mineapoc, Noobscraft's sister server. All of these people are either very old players and know a lot of the Towny commands, and have experience with town staff positions, or are new and have quite a bit of potential.

To apply for a Town Staff post, follow the below code:

In Game Name:

Date Registered*:

Applying for:

Experience w/ Towny (Scale 1 to 10 (1=Very little, 10=A lot)):

Good with People (Scale 1 to 10 (1=Bad, 10=Great)):

(For Architects only) How good your building/redstone work? (Scale 1 to 10 (1=Bad, 10=Great))  Please provide a picture of a build or show me a build you have built on the server.

If accepted as Town Staff, do you agree to donate your time, Noobz, and some materials to the town's cause?
When I accept a person as Town Staff, I will update this post and include their Username and how many spots left for that post. Make sure to check often if you haven't posted yet and want to so you can make sure the spot you wanted isn't taken!

*You can check your date registered by either clicking on "Profile" on the site, or going on to the server and doing /res [Your Username]. Note: "/res" may not always be correct, especially if you have been inactive for 3 months or more previously.

This thread is specifically for any questions you want to ask about Utopia. Ask away, you guys. I'll usually answer within a day or two, and if I don't, SmithB0118 or deebles17 will, and very rarely Olah0001 or zebra903 will.

At the end of V5, our Noobz should be converted into Tokens. To make it so that people couldn't get so many tokens, the max amount of Noobz converted into Tokens should be 250k Noobz. Along with this, it should be 100 Noobz = 1 Token. That way the most someone could get was 2500 tokens. It would help with buying materials in V6 using tokens and it would make people feel as though they weren't losing quite so much, as a lot of what people have been sad about losing is valuable property and their noobz. There should also be an option on the site in V6 to convert your Noobz into Tokens, using a similar formula as above. I say similar because the economy in V6 will be quite different from the current V5 economy.

As you may have seen in my "The New Standard of Living in V6..." topic under Towns & Nations, you know that I have much in store for it, including a business district and a company headquarters in that area. But this isn't about towns and nations, its about the market. Well, today I announce what is nothing short of a revolution in the way people own business. I give to you: Empire Trading and Manufacturing Company, V6! Its a mouthful to say, so just call it Empire Co. or Empire T&M. The company will be owned by multiple people (I have already chosen, so the people know who they are) and will sell every item* for the lowest price out there! Everything from wood to wool to sponges and mob spawners! We will set up headquarters in my V6 town, and hope to put embassies in every major town by the first birthday of V6.

_{*Does not include bedrock or any material currently disabled by the server. May not include all items in the earlier days of V6.}

Good luck with your shops and stuff in V6,
HarryX11

Simply put, I have much planned for V6, including opening a great city with lots of things to do, fully automated with redstone work from many tests between SmithB0118 and I on a LAN world we use for V6 Noobscraft ideas. The name will be released soon, about 1 week before the shutdown of V5. The town will have everything from fishing docks to public mining areas (10 noobz to get in every time) restocked with ores regularly to automated games, multiple PvP arenas, spleef, and even a giant horse racing course with betting on the horse you want to win! For those who are the gambling type, we will have a few casinos in town. For the business people, we are going to have a giant business/shopping district, including the HQ of a business I am opening along with a few others. Welcome to the new standard of town life.

This is feedback for the mods I have no harmful intentions for this I just think it would be nice to see what you players think about our staff team as a whole.
