I may have to try this, it looks like a great contest.

Let me know where to donate and I will.

I like these ideas especially, because they don't add some big change to the gameplay on the server. I joined up because I wanted to play Survival with a bunch of people that weren't trying to kill me like on S, and I stuck around because the community is so good. The last thing I want to see is anything that changes the core gameplay. Survival R26 is a good exampe of what happens when admins try to change things, and I don't want to see this server go in that direction. I think the biggest change we need is bigger, better terrain. The mesa, while it's cool to look at, hasn't spawned any builds, and really hasn't contributed to gameplay. I don't think we should get rid of it, but I like the idea of buffing mobs in areas where people aren't likely to build to create a sort of "badlands" effect. Custom dungeons/ruins/temples/villages/hidden secrets would be a great incentive to explore these areas. An 8Kx8K map is a bit big, but I like the size when I go exploring because there's always something new to find, even five montsh into the rev.

I'd like to see the map generated with less of a contrast betwen biomes. This rev, there's a giant mesa kind of plunked down with no transition between it and the forest. Maybe next rev, the map could have smoother transitions between biomes, so that forests and plains gradually gave way to savannahs, deserts, and mesas. Also, we need a bigger jungle and swamp. I wouldn't mind seeing a map with a few large islands instead of a big landmass with tiny islands.

Oh, so spawnkilling. Got it.

Sorry, n00b here. What exactly is basecamping?
