Hello! I am here to announce a major project that has just begun on the Flatlands: Middle Earth! And we want you! Clickable Map: http://lotr.wikia.com/wiki/Portal:Locations Another Map: http://blog.lefigaro.fr/hightech/middle-earth-map.jpg

Dum, Ryan, Iran, Cupa, and I are taking up leadership of the project, but we need more good and dedicated builders to make it all come together. The following is a list of major and minor areas which will need to be built. If you are interested, please read the descriptions carefully. This is a professional build, so please know that you will not be able to complete an area in one day. You will need to be diligent in order to include all of the aspects and details of your area. Remember, since this is on the Flatlands, all of the terrain and vegetation will also need to be made by you.

Zoning is ready! Terraforming is not complete, so if you have a build close to a river or mountains, either terraform it yourself or know that the area will change.

If you are interested, please make a forum post in this thread to let me know 1) which area(s) off of the list you want to build, 2) your rank on the server, and 3) your personal knowledge of Lord of the Rings. If your post does not contain ALL of this information, I will ignore it. I will get back to you as quickly as possible and tell you how to proceed. I will also remove posts as I go so that this thread stays a bit more manageable for me. Dum, Ryan, Iran, Cupa, and I will get first choice.

Here is rivendell.

Hey! So, there have been a few shifts in who is doing what in terms of marking the map, thus things are taking a bit longer than we thought. Please note: We are aiming to be done marking the map and have warps ready for you to start building by Friday February 3rd. Please do not bother any of us about it until then. If you have a small project that can be easily copy-pasted, you may work on that on the regular Flatland. If you have a major build you will just need to wait until we are ready. If we are ready sooner than that, I will let you know.

There are still many open positions. You may take one major project and one minor project. As manager, I reserve the right to tell you if you may or may not do a particular project. I will not assign you to a project unless you make a forum post here. No asking me in-game. I am trying to stay organized. If I steer you away from a certain project, please do not be offended. I have to do what's best for the project as a whole. It isn't personal and I will help you to find a project that will work well for you. There will be no discussion after I've made a final decision, so please do not beg or harass me. Projects will also need to be reassigned if work isn't going well.

The list as it now stands is the current list.

Thanks to iRandomness and Cupagreent for all of their hard work as we tackle the difficult task of laying down the map.

This seems cool, everyone's talking about it so much.

I like the organisation del. Very good.

I think I'm almost done with Weathertop, the only things that are required are the hills and the ruin.

I will come help out when I get the chance xD. Been rather busy lately.

Please read the updated first post on this thread! Warps are ready and building may commence!

Many thanks to cupagreent!

I would work on one of these but i would require lots of voxel and world edit first, so i need to get arch first.
