Skycity confirmed! (Vote for name now!)

Hello! Greetings from Levarion! I am here to propose a new city in which many realms can have a slice. Yes, I mean Skycity! As we all know, past Skycities have fallen due to determined griefer attacks, but I have a feeling this one will succeed will other fell. The past cities had fallen due to limited griefing protection, but because of new protections added by the great Intelli himself, this city will be protected with chest protection and reversing any damage done by the griefer threat. But enough of that, onto the main topic.

If we want a Skycity in which we can all have a home, it must be huge. No, not the normal "huge," I mean huge. I propose that many of the main realms (Ceteri, ect.) will be able to get a "slice of the pie." In that, I suggest that any realm that donates supplies to the construction will be able to get a realm for free inside the city. More will be added as the topic goes on.

NEWS: Skycity has been confirmed as the location has been found. The location will be hidden except for certain inviduals due to Aelcalans request. The Nether portal to the city is now up and working due to Mitchie151.

Government: Council

I happen to know of a MASSIVE ocean that would be perfect for this. The former Southeast quadrant, current Southwest, I think? Anyways, it's a HUGE ocean, lots of room, and the fall won't kill you.

I've admittedly got a vested interest, since a couple of my realms are now stuck in that ocean. I'd be willing to use it as a bit of a starting point/area of operations for the city, though.

Thank you Aelcalan, and great idea. I will be sure to check out the area in my free time.

Just don't put a bank on the sky city. That seems to be the standard pattern that leads to sky cities turning into sky slums.

What are the coordinate location of this ocean? If its anywhere near Abyssus i might invest a few realms.
I think that rather than being a flat 1 block thick square of grass, it should be a proper floating island.

My thoughts exactly Mitchie! And I will also look into the bank problem.

I like the idea. The Northwest (formerly NE) has it's own ocean that needs ihabitants. We could use the stray chunks from the old map as bridging/ladder/supports areas.

Just do me a favor - don't build it right beside Findale. We like being our own small continent. (3-6 realms over would be awesome though)

Ive also got an idea of the way UP to the city. Those lucky enough with a minecart would be able to travel up to the cities inner-plaza with ease, but those without will have to take a somewhat harder route of either water-elevator or walking up.
