    I'm Serif. I am a SkyGod on .Net now, and this....
    [​IMG]
    is my island.
    At least, the surface level of it.
    About to start working on the caves.
    Some of you have heard me say that before....
    I promise, it's gonna happen soon. D: Almost done with the prep work for it.

    I run a trade shop in the village (not a very large one, but I price pretty fairly) and a banner shop under spawn. I also do Diamond scavenger hunts (btw, can item frames be seen with X-Ray mods?) and Drop Parties on occasion as well.

    I'm relatively new to being active on the Forums, though I've had an account for about as long as I've been on Skyblock. People kept saying that Mods had to be active on forums, so apparently I have to do that too.... >.>

    Hello.

    Hey there :p
    I don't think your image is working
    Also, x-ray can work on signs

    See, it's something like that that makes me not want to do scavenger hunts anymore.... >.>
    Because we allow these client side mods.... Like X-Ray, or the brick breaker mods that are ruining the economy.... Ugh.
    I'll figure out what's up with the image.

    Ayye.
    It was nice to finally meet you in game earlier. And yes, signs may be seen through x-ray mods.

    I'm just good at teraforming. I don't try to build big. Especially houses.
    I started with the mountain sliver in the village. I knew I wanted a mine, and I didn't want to dig it straight down, so going into a mountain made the most sense. That took a bit of time, but that was because I knew that it would start to set the tone.
    From there, I walled off the quarter for the village. That remained enclosed for some time, actually. The village took me a couple weeks, between teraforming it out, building the buildings (hardest part, for me), and moving the shops into the buildings. I slowed down for a bit there, covered it all with Grass Blocks.
    Then I followed the patterns established in the village and teraformed the wilds. The lake was done pretty quickly, and then the waterfall. The river was finished the following day. While the village took me about two weeks, the wilds took me about 2 days to teraform, and 2 weeks ish after that to cover in Grass. Another week has passed since then, and I've gotten the forest filled out and the grass populated with... grass. Lol

    Figure out your strength. Mine is teraforming, and I expect the caves to fill out fast. But, I have several ideas for the caves that will slow me down a bit because of my aversion towards building big.
    But that's okay, because I've got a lot of room to fill.
    Best two tips I can provide anyone;
    emulate, do not imitate.
    never be afraid to change your plans in the presence of something shiny.

    Your island is what inspired me to start a terraform island myself! c: It truly is an outstanding island...
