Zones
Themed areas! That's right, there will be areas that allow people who want to do a particular type of building to build with other like-minded souls. :) Here are a few zones I'd like to have to start with, but we can always build more in the future.
The Sandbox
Who doesn't like playing in a sandbox?
This area is where we'll be putting people who are on Trial. Once you've shown you can build something that has quality, you'll be allowed to move out to one of the cities. WARNING: Each lot(IN the SANDBOX) is subject to a wipe or cleaning as people are promoted out of the trial area. Your stuff is temporary here. (But can be moved with WorldEdit)

Future Cities
Where the streets have no name
Fun Free Building
This area will have somewhere around 35x35 sized plots where people will be able to build larger buildings. My hope is for this to be a large industrial complex with really big cool buildings.
Dark City
Tall Buildings, Smoke is Progress!
This area will be a big mega city. Not a single tree shall be spared. :) Build and go big as small wimpy structures won't be tolerated.
Down Home
Country Living!
Laid back, chilled out, farm-like dwellings will be here. think rolling pastures, farms, barns, animals ponds, etc...
Animatrix
Crazy Pixel Art!@#%ZZ
Yeah, you know you want to do a pokemon structure, and you know you want to do that Coca Cola logo and the Metallica logo too, this is where you'd do it. If you are building crazy stuff, step up the plate!
Carnage Row
PvP Enabled
This zone will be where when you enter, prepare to have yourself beaten silly. No QQ about deaths or camping if you are in this zone. No /give
Nature Preserve(s)
Hermit Homes / Pretty Landscape Safekeeping
Some places just beg to be preserved as they are without having to compete with buildings and whatnot. We will build a path around these areas and save them so others can "Get away from it all".
