A QUIET BEACH



What is a "Pass It On?"

A Pass It On is a sort of game, in which you download a map, and re-upload it after a certain amount of time playing and surviving in the map. After that, a next person may download the modified map, and after several downloads, the map will grow bigger and bigger.


About this map

I just started playing a bit, and then thought it would be fun if I'd make a Pass It On of it.
It's a very simple map. Just a little house on the beach with a mine next to it and a little farm. Typical starting house. It is a nice world with many resources. I really wonder how creative people can be in developping this map.


How to Pass It On

1. You go to the latest post, and see if it says "TAKEN" or "RETURNED"
2. If it says "RETURNED", there should be a download link in the post
3. Download the map, unpack the file using 7-zip, WinRAR, WinZip or any other program compatible, and import it in the saves folder in .minecraft
4. Then add a post to this thread with "TAKEN" in it.
5. You may keep the map for up to 2 hours, and no longer
6. When you're finished playing, zip the file using 7-zip, WinRAR, WinZip, etc
7. Then upload the .rar or .zip file to any file sharing site (MediaFire, Rapidshare, FileFront, GameFront)
8. Then, add a post to this thread, with "RETURNED" on top (colors not needed, but appreciated) and add the following info:

- Time played
- Summary of what you've done (main events, added buildings, added items, etc.)
- Screenshots of the changes (optional)
- Link to the uploaded map
- Review, just your opinion about it, how you experienced your time playing

That's all there is to "Pass It On"


Rules:

0. When participating in this Pass It On, you are obligated to follow these rules.

1. Don't keep the map longer than 2 hours, if you do, your "Taken" post will be ignored and someone else will start with the map in the post before your post

2. Don't destroy or remove any buildings you didn't make, without a reason. If you did, please add it to the summary when returning the map

3. You may place signs with "Forum-Name was here", or any other information you'd like to leave behind, just don't put anything on it that might offend people

4. If you decide to start building somewhere away from the spawn, please make a road to that place, so people can find it.

5. When finished playing, put all your belongings in a chest near the spawn, so other people can use them to survive.

6. No cheats or mods are allowed. Just pure survival like Minecraft was made.

7. You are not allowed to play the map in any difficulty below 'Normal'

8. You may take the map more than once, BUT not right after you returned it. Someone else has to take it before you take it for the second time.

9. Please do not sleep in a bed away from the spawn for the last time, make sure the spawnpoint is set at the starting house

More rules may be added, so keep an eye on them ;)


I will place an example post, so you guys can see what your post should look like


Everybody ENJOY, and don't break any of the rules so this can stay fun for everybody.


EDIT:

Just added objectives, if you complete any of them, please put that in your return post, and your name will be written next to the completed objective.

Objective:

- Add 2 stories to the starting house

- Build a total of 3 treehouses, and connect them to eachother

- Finish the cobblestone house in the sea

- Fill the entire farm with seeds

- Extend the mining shaft, across the water behind the farm, to bedrock

- Make 3 cakes Completed by Xoncom

- Build a brick house with at least 2 floors Completed by Xoncom

- Mine 2 stacks of redstone dust Completed by Warspawn

- Create a mobtrap to get loot from them

- Connect the mobtrap to the main house with redstone, so a torch will light up when items arrive in the trap

That's all for now! If these are completed, new ones will be added!

People, please read the rules and guidelines about how to use this Pass It On, and don't do stuff like Poulsen109 did, because it will lead you nowhere, I can just 'reset' it.

Thanks people, keep it fun to play.

People can cheat, but it won't do any damage, as I can easily reset it to the download before it. So if you'd finished playing, and you would make a returned post, and the next person sets fire to everything, I can just reset it back to your finished version.

So no harm will be done by griefers and cheaters.

Enjoy! :D

It is already taken about half an hour ago. Want me to reserve the map for you and notify you when it's returned?
