Greetings everyone,

I would like to thank everyone for their participation and cooperation in the last phase. It appears Amdeneir won and should therefore further be planned upon with a enhanced team now able to host 10 participants.

As we all know, 4 months is the remainder of our journey and it is best we start working for our goal

My old team(Team Adraax) will hopefully be in full career to take on this task and I do hope others on other teams will join them. If you have any interest in joining and want to take on this challenge then just send us a post on this topic. 3D modelers with good 3D modeling skills are preferred, of course. The participation of the entire community is essential to find the best modelers. If you've got a passion for modeling then why not take the chance and show your talents, right now

Deadline date for Phase Two
September 30th 11:59 EST

Current team members
Nikodemus, Zweitholou, Baldur, Rast, crj, Mindari, Illysia, Homik, Kougaro

Supplied Design Package(guide to what should be modeled before deadline)

I'd just like to make a note to all Swedes on this forum.

Read through, and sign this list to make you rvoice heard, that you want to
change the environment. Further environmental discussion is welcome, your views and what you do to preserve the environment, and what others can do.

Scientists have said that in 45 years, when we reach the golly number 9 billion people(9 milliards) the resources on this globe, a globe that gives you oxygen to breath and food to eat, won't be enough, seas will be fished out leaving us with a global echological collapse within decades. We have to remember that Earth isn't endless. It's a fixed amount of carbon with various minerals and chemicals that can be used a fixed amount of times. Now sure, these minerals and chemicals are used and can be recycled but the fact that they're leaking into the air, or, literally flushed into the atmosphere and ocean wont due for a stable growth in the environment. The fact that actually the world echonomy is tied to nature's resources will leave us with a bankrupsy when the disaster is a fact.

Now, what have I done to try and prevent this. Everyone can prevent this, you can, your friends can. I've seen your awesome argumentation skill and I know you can do it. Convince people, make them see that this and that is a good or bad habit and tell them why. Present them info like i've just done, converse with them. Discuss, listen to them and together we can all find a solution perosnally, or globally.

Now, what do I do? Well, i've written to this forum about the consequences of our present situation. World leaders are told and lectured to aim more at the environmental cause, they've actually been told to focus as much on the environmental cause as they do with nuclear investigations. People are doing things and I feel it's my duty to reach out to more people. Maybe I affect someone, make them aware of my and others viewpoint on our current situation.

Yesterday I changed my lamp for a low energy lamp and convinced my mother to buy these the next time we buy light bulbs. Also rechargable batteries and loaders were in priority. It was hard to convince her but it was worth the cause. I'm trying to make a better future for myself, and others.
So. What do you do to change this, what have you been told. Have others told you anything?
^Swedes. Don't forget the namelist

Now, let's see what everyone's doing, and thinking.

[Rant]
People have done it again. People have amazed me with their stupidity. There was a national election and guess what happened in MY community, a racistic party was the third biggest party in the the community. When will this end, when will people stop making mistakes over and over and over again.

Din't they know that it was the german people that brought the power to Hitler through their ignorance and stupidity, their jealousy towards the "people" jews. Did they not know that it gave Hitler power to raze the governement and spew out racistic propaganda. Did they know that humans, HUMANS, were systematically murdered in concentration camps just becxause of their belief.

This saddens me and angers me that racism is on the raise in this once beautiful country. Just because of fear we build ourselves these walls and wait for our blood to be pure. Do we not know that under our 10.000 year journey to this "promised" land we mixed with everyone, every "people", every "tribe" whatever you want to call it. We thrived.
[/Rant]

In lack of time i'll have to quit this, but remember, never let ignorance cover your eyes. Read, question.
"What had the jews done to deserve this?"
"Nothing."
"What had our countrymen with a different face structure done, then?"
"Nothing at all. Their hair color just bugged us so we just murdered them or deported them. Whatever."

Not long ago I found a game which is much like our own project, a free game, a game created by inspiration. This game, "Infinity", is of Science Fiction character. It is nade by a number of people working on the many spaces of this space.

The story is that humanity is scattered across space, much like EvE, and you embark on a quest to find what every man and woman seeks, their homeplanet, Earth. This universe is to be vast, enormous, even greater then EvE online which is said to host nearly 5000 worlds. What is certainly astonishing with this game is it's game engine, it enables you to zoom from one place to another in marvelous detail. An example is you stand on the surface of a planet and you can follow a battle in space at high definition.

This project is still young because of it's vastness, as is ours, no advertising meant, only to show you an equal of our goals. To become a haven of gamers where everything that is great in that genre is mixed with new ideas and concepts, a fresh start from the many stereotypes, so to say.

Infinity: The Quest for Earth
Enjoy

Peace.

Klyro's City History/Story telling

Listen up, writers!
Mission: Me, Minetus, and the rest of the crew working on the Klyro's City Project invites people to write the history of this Klyros city. Also we're a bit curious on how the the weak fishermen came to build boats and Katamarans so we'll need some explanation on that. There is already a backstory to the Klyro's special house, the "Baku", but it can be improved utterly.

Material: Most of the info can be found at the first post on page 1  but if you want a more thorough description of, for example the Baku, architecture, boats you will have to browse the topic a bit. There are fan concept sketches so picturing it will be quite easy.

Examples of story/history builds
Stories
The Epic Story: First a description of what happened, war, slaughter, famine, whatever as long as you explain why the story(chapter) starts there which often is a big event. After the story there's the happy ending and then a short prologue of what happened afterwards, how they came to live in the new country they found.
A personal story: It often begnis roughly, you get thrown into someone's life and now you get a chance to study how he lives. This can also be an epic story as there is an end with lots of space for events, though you must follow that character.
History
The diary/logbook: You get to experience the life of a commander, general or other important person thorugh his notes, it's often informative and explanatory. Closelly strung to the Story.
Common Information: The work of a scholar or a historian. You try to explain why and when the city was built through the mind of a scribe. For examples see Overview of the Known World.

Time rate: Theoretically you will have endless time as long as the project is up and going but if you want a deadline we could set it at 2 August, then you'll have plenty of time to stress out
