Title: Castle Ostrich (running out of funds)
Post by: troddenostrich on March 27, 2012, 01:47:36 am
I have decided that living in semi small houses is no way to experience minecraft. that is why starting immediatly i am constructing a castle of epic proportions. however, this project will be very expensive since mass amounts of stone brick tend to be well... expensive. anyways this castle as of now is only 1 incomplete wall that resides behind my house in Skyrim City. This massive castle will include, throne room, dining hall, library, gardens, farms, shop, alchemy room, large suites or rooms, a cathedral, animal farm, and other castle like structures that you would find. This oppertunity to become a resident requires some payment, as i cant afford to build this by myself within a decent amount of time. So i am taking up to 30 investors for donations of some sort but we dont discriminate. Leave a comment or message me if you are interested in this unique oppertunity or just wish to donate to the cause. thank you for your time and have a wonderful day - Trodden :D
Current Residents: Duinis, XRoyalDiamondX, Logan5353, Dj301, Xstone11, Victino, Relkeb, Kian1354, MaxieG42, Omaroo2, Ryan1230, Witchawa, Beefdog303, XJustinGluckX, Lewisd15

we need funding, the price of stone brick with wool and other materials has finally drained my pocket and we need ur help to continue building at a fast pace

I wish I could help but I dont have $20,000 :( . Are you accepting any other amounts (my terms would have to agree with witchawa's)?

(UPDATE) I am now no longer taking a required amount for investment. the new requirements are, you must have no ban history or be trusted by myself, and it is expected that you still donate money or items within your budget toward the completion of the castle. Residents and investors may help with construction but must do so only when im present and can oversee construction. this is due to the fact that i have a mental blueprint, still open to ideas, but dont want people to slave over something in the end that i might not like. thanks for reading and in responce to Ryans1230 and Witchawa if you are willing to meet these conditions then send me a message on my profile and welcome to Castle Ostrich :).

Be careful with investments, make sure they will be able to pay you back and find out how they will make the money to pay you back afterwards.

Mr i understand what you are saying by being careful with investments, but the reward isnt a cash payout its a residency. i guess if worst comes to worst(which it wont) i would be able to refund everyones investments over time if not immediatly. but i welcome the advice to newcomers as it is wise to be wary of investing in strangers.

1. Are you on the mumble?

2. I'm actually pretty serious, if an extremely large effort is put in by me, do you think I could have a larger room off the castle completely belonging to me?

To answer you questions, not currently am i on mumble for i dont have a mic that works on comp yet :/. and everyones suites will be large. the content of the room belongs to you. but the structure is mine. this is so if in extreme cases of being banned for certain things or stealing, grief, or just intentionally causing havok to peoples lives then i could evict that person meaning they are no longer a resident but i will allow them to take there stuff with them. so yes you will have a large suite to yourself. but the actual part of the castle its in belongs to me. you own all things you put in it and decorate i with.

Can I be a partial resident? I will just stop by sometimes and walk around. I won't move there but I will hopefully have a room I can use as a little getaway?

Why yes I would actually. To tell you the truth, several towns already consider me a "citizen"/"resident" but I just like visiting a lot of towns and going around. While I won't live here permanently, I might establish a house for temporary visits.

and I will invest of course. I love seeing projects like towns grow. How's a 10k investment sound? :P

Also, if you need any materials, I'd be glad to help. Especially cobble, I have about 2 chests full.
