This Spawn... - Panther - 05-03-2015
So, as you can see the spawn area on this map is a giant glass orb (Credits for this is to the creators of The Crater, the full map can be found on Curse)
I'm planning to keep this giant orb on future maps now as well, as I've resently set out 21 100x100 land plots within the orb which players will be able to claim and build on, these builds will be saved and bought forward with the Orb each map reset
I've yet to decide how to allocate the blocks of land to players, but if you have any ideas of a fair way to distribute them, id like to hear it.
You can see the plots have been marked with some wire (In the corners), you can also view the plots here:

How about this:
___ people enter, then you multiply that by the amount of days they have been on the forum, multiplied by their rank (Staff and VIP counts as 100), divide that by 5, round it to the nearest whole number, then put their name in that many times, and randomly choose 21 names. Somebody can have 2+ plots.

I need only 2 plots 100x100 for 2 deathrun maps can i get them maybe (70x50)

Ok wow this actually sounds epic. I can safely say that many people always struggle with the fact that their constructions will get removed, so this is a very big improvement for the people that want to add something permanent to the map.
As for the plot allocations, I don't really know, but perhaps you could distribute some of the plots as contest prizes?

Give plots to the more prominent members of the community, (Those who have successful stores and advertise about them [well known], People who have minigames et up [The death run set up by yosseh for example], and those who have usefull additions to the map permenantly

I love new spawn. It's really cool. And @Panther, Why not to sell them for a reasonable price, obviously the price would be higher, plot would be on spawn. And make the NPCs section inside the orb too.

Why not use SS to buy perma plot of lands. That way, SS would have a function once you've reach level 100 and have bought everything you need in game.
Though there should be a plot restriction per character.

I say the plots not be divided among players. But used for the most important areas of the map. ie. AFK, NPC, the shop, And various other things. That way no one can have an issues that they didnt get one of the slots. Giving them to players, or even staff for personal creations, would create more problems than it would solve.

Plots (imo) should be given on first come first serve basis as a purchasable thing in the vip store. The plots will and already are widely sought after and should not be "distributed" to players based on popularity, time spent on the server or SS. Contest prizes are another option, however there needs to be a fair bit of warning before giving the holding the contest or use the vote system as the basis for giving away the plots.
RE: This Spawn... - Shack - 05-03-2015
I rescind my previous post on this thread, and second Flounders. Minus the contest, as many would complain in the server that they didnt know about the contest, and again, would hurt more than it would help. I second the purchase of them via the VIP server
