Just start a new map and enter <3<3<3 as the seed ?? ok: I am no Picasso but I will give it try after I finish sorting out these buildings to scan for Grandma. you said no major edits to Mc buildings : so the extra bedroom is out are we to ONLY use the buildings in rc20+minecraft or can user floorplans go in too ? I just did a cottage that took only 6 tries and killed 1 builder to get the structure to sit pretty

Other buildings can be built, but try not to overpower the Minecolony buildings One aim of this competition is to get a "showcase" map for the mod - so it kinda needs to be mainly minecolony buildings, or other buildings distributed with minecolony

I was actually right for once However, I might be disqualified already my Jar file has BTW + I think a village spawning thing ( BAV : to say it politely, they are not big, just more frequent badly made villages. ) Neither has anything to do with Minecolony : so long as you don't feed the dogs BTW will not show itself BUT I think if I police the map before I close it out to make sure no poop is hiding in a house chest I think your friend would never notice:) LOL but I will give it a try anyway, if anything you can take your friend to the *Bar I just scanned * floorplans for anything I get to work I post for everyone: not because I am good : but because the community is creative and might get inspired to release those goodies they are hiding

If I can open and interact with the map in Vanilla MC + Minecolony, then all is good

Excellent - That's at least first and second prize allocated - lol !! to victorianrat.. I tried >3>3>3 : did you seriously look at that place? : If we are to keep it near the Spawn Point and not run Amok , then that seed code is slightly challenging ; I have gotten lost exploring it : searched everywhere for an Ocean Outlet : The Minecolony Ship HAS to be part of anything you do if you are to Showcase and there isn't much of a good spot to land a ship. The Frigate, maybe : it can do tight areas : but not the ColonyShip. it just isn't believable. I was looking at the Plains but that's a good 500 blocks easy if not more. the only other thing I can think of is A) I Change the Orders and Just go NUTS : figure it out later or B) give up ; and I never give up I was without Armor all this time : I had to kill myself in water 3 times to get back to the spawn point and try a new angle : Spiders love it when they can get over your head.

The seed is <3<3<3 not >3>3>3 I have a special way of doing my towns, i have plenty of room in that spot. I have also been playing Minecolony since before 1.8. And i have a ship and a starting of a dock.

ooooooo : So I was on the wrong continent? I was wondering why it was only me at the lunch table Ok: you might get the reward but I got the Challenge I have the correct world loaded: nice spot, plenty of water, a well formed NPC village near-by ( but I still have to build a protection around my spawn point before I do anything else ) The closest I have in my world to what I loaded up in >3>3>3 was Odessa ; I had the builder demolishing EVERYTHING to make room for a town. Odessa was not as bad property as what I found in >3>3>3. I don't know if you have the NPC village : but it will be a nice spot at night for me : Tea and Beasty Killing in comfort I have a NPC well and structure floorplans : not as fancy as the Officials, but it will still get me Iron golems to help out until i get Soldiers going * I did not give up on that other world: it was not the right one so I deleted it It's going to be a long night.

Are custom floorplans allowed? I don't use houses anymore; my citizens live in skyscrapers.
(redesigned houses to be stackable)

(redesigned houses to be stackable) that may conflict with Rule 4 of the competition "Can include any structures you want to build, but there should be no major modifications to the MC buildings." but i dont know for sure myself
