What state is the project in, and what are your plans for its future, if any:
The arena is finished. It consisted of public access to 11 spawners. The main arena is a Player vs Spider room. There are 6 spawners (5 that spawn at the same time). There is access to one skeleton grinder, one zombie grinder, and 3 spider grinders. The arena also has a spleef and Level 30 enchanting room. My arena has always been kept public and will remain that way.
The Garden Maze behind the castle is finished, but I'm thinking about pushing it back about 5 blocks. It is a replica of the Garden Maze at luray Caverns VA. There is a reward chest locked by a password that players who challenge the maze look for.
Under the castle is the dungeon. The main floor of the dungeon is complete. Players who explored the dungeon (maze) may find the "prison log" a book wrote by a prisoner that hints to the hidden door to the abandoned wing. This Easter Egg, is mostly finished. Players can at the moment find the showers, prison records, dungeon masters private room, death row, and the iron maidens. This is all kept behind hidden doors. It is a work in progress. I don't want to give away too much, but what I've listed has been seen my many players. To finish this I have alot of underground work to do. This has proven hard to protect with PS, that's why it has been put on hold at the moment.
I have a ship i am working on to the left of my castle. I still need to furnish it.
In addition to my arena, I have a public grinder. The grinder uses 3 spider spawners and a zombie spawner at the same time. This alone has drawn visitors to my home.
I will be adding a dragon to the castle build. I've started the tail, but it's not much to look at right now. This will be a massive build and take me alot of time.
When i get farther along i plan on building a sewer system under the courtyard too.
There is a finished Herobrine statue on the castle, i under stand that many players have built statues but I built something special for the statue of herobrine. Some visitors have noticed that the statue will randomly blink.
There is a chicken randomizer that causes pistons to close his eyes.
As for the castle, the first 3 floors are finished. I have more floors that need to be decorated still.
Why should we grant this city protection?
I would like project protection, because i want to keep this public. It has many visitors daily. Using the grinders, trying to complete the maze, battling in the arena, exploring the dungeon and it's hidden rooms. The castle has 7 reward chests that are waiting to be found. This project is getting too big to protect by myself, there are many spots already that aren't protected by the PS's i do have.
I have already found my castle on youtube, explored by a fan of my work. I have greeted guest who have told me the castle is the reason they are on, one had told me that it was his inspiration for his spawn, another guest was there because a friend told him to come see it. I welcome everyone who comes, regardless of name color. I joined this sever because it's a high traffic sever and i want people to see what i can do.
I mentioned i built a Mudd-Hut. this is true. it's just outside the castle. I built this to prove that even dirt homes can be awesome. I think i made that point. The sad thing is I've witnessed a player spawn on my /home and pull out his/her shovel and try to destroy it. It is under PS so I had a good laugh about it. But now that my castle as gotten too big for the Protection stones that i do have on it, it's got me thinking, if a player is willing to destroy my mudd-hut just becouse it's there, i really need to ask for help protecting my Castle.
I'm not asking for project protection to keep player out, I'm asking for it so that i can keep letting them in.
