Okay!!  I took a look around the Grand Hall last night.  The warp point brings you in on the edge of the south side of the Grand Hall.  Eventually, we'll want something behind you to the south so that your back isn't to blank ocean, but for now maybe we can give the visitor more to look at, from the warp point, by expanding east or west.  A reasonable thing to put in either of those directions, right next to the Hall, would be housing.

I suggest a T-cross emanating from the east side of the northeast corner of the Grand Hall, with other paths extending east and north.

Ask and ye shall receive, my good sir.

...except for replies.

Anyway! Nobody's made motions to dispute the current construction proposal, and it's been a few days, so we're ready. Construction will begin once I have the necessary tribute for a Pathway. It will be completed when I pop the lighting in.

Please direct all tribute to the Grand Hall. First door on your right when entering the building, first floor please!

The first Pathway is completed. We can take requests for anything the users desire.

So we're considering a Small Home on the east end of the newly-completed Pathway? Sounds like a plan. Anybody say nay, or have other ideas?

...wow, seriously?

I'll go fix that as I make the other fixes.

EDIT: Fixed the mistake. Installed a basic compass rose as well. I could've sworn that was northeast. Um. Oops? >>;;;

The Small Home is now awaiting tribute~

Unsurprising, really. The server keeps failing to bind to the port, meaning I need to reboot it manually every morning. And keeps losing our server.properties settings to boot.

I'll discuss it with Aine the second I can. Tribute is waived for this Small Home when I can reasonably connect.

Command blocks re-enabled. If you died today and got banned, -please let me know.-

Travincal (as in the Temple-City of Travincal, the area of Diablo II Act III before the Durance of Hate) is pronounced roughly "tra-vin-call," where the A in the first syllable is the same pronounciation as "at." It's fairly difficult to find the word itself pronounced at all in the game – you rather need to spend a lot of time bugging the people at Kurast Docks and Deckard Cain himself at various points throughout Act III.

Kurast itself is, roughly, said as "kyoo-rawst." For reference, the word Zakarum (as in the actual faith of Kurast itself) is said as "zawk-aw-room."

...I was going to get fancy with Unicode, but decided in the end against it. Bio Phonetics are what y'alls get today.

I don' actually play Minecraft or even have an idea what you do on it but I just got really happy another person played a lot of Diablo II. I played this so much I could play it mentally, no pc needed lol.

The pathway's proposal is finalized, although it will still be a while before I get around to it. I apologize – Guild Wars 2 has been eating a lot of my time recently, so...

That said, the rules are being rewritten slightly, and I'll rewrite the original post and the Drive doc to reflect this:

The second I say a structure's finished, it's finished. No exceptions, no wait times necessary. A structure is considered "finished" if you can see a ring of sea lanterns just below the waterline (or a sea lantern lamp-post for pathways). Also, users are free to move into Housing if there's room. Each Housing unit can accommodate a single user. Users aren't allowed to move into the Grand Hall or other structures which increase Population.
