People are just idiots and ignorant. Really nice job, I'll have to try these soon after re-reading the rules. I'm looking to set up a server with adventure maps and recreation mods like skyblock, wasteland and factions. Great job on all your hard work.

Just because your online doesn't mean you should act with no disregard for the real people through the screen.

Muchisimas gracias! (face I'm too fazy to find)
I've actually been working a lot on TBL #2 recently and already have plans for TBL #3 and how #2 and #3 will be linked toegther, however, the map may not be released fully until TU9 rolls around.
(I want to use various wood colours anyhow.)
I have been receiving a lot of blind friend requests recently. I you wish to join us in our world, please do not friend me, but instead send me (GoatsWithRakes) a message only after you have read through this post and are familiar with how TBL #1 works. I will not accept random friend requests and I will expect you to know what you need for the first map.
"Thê Bûrñt Lâñds...a world ruled by the deity Diashun, cut off from others for millenia and recovering from a global war. I am one of the few bridges between our world and yours. My comrades may not be the most welcoming...unless you prove your worth to them."
Introduction and frequently asked questions:
What are "Thê Bûrñt Lâñds?"
Thê Bûrñt Lâñds (or TBL to be short) is a series of Adventure Maps designed by me exclusively for the Xbox 360. These maps have a wide variety of themes, from parkour to free-roam. Each map is overlooked by a certain bird and has two types of completion:
Standard: Simply get through the map to achieve this.
Jewel: Each map will have a specific set of additional rules (so to speak). These will make the maps more challenging, but true players will strive to achieve this in each map. Call it "Challenge Mode," if you will....
What do I need to play these maps?
Well, not much, really. You need an Xbox, a Gold account, an Internet connection, and Minecraft 360 edition. Some maps may also require a partner either for completion or the Jewel challenge. You do not need a mic, however, it would be very useful for certain maps.
Cool, how do I play them now?
I will not put these maps up for download, for that is illegal and also bars some from being able to enjoy them. If you wish to play a map, send me a message and I will get back to you on it. Please note that I do not take blind friend requests warmly. A simple message will keep everybirdy happy and fluffy.
I have nobirdy else to play with! Will you be my partner?
If all else fails and you cannot acquire a partner in any way for the map that requires one, I will be your partner, however, I will notdo anything Jewel-related. In addition, I will be letting you solve most of the puzzles along the way if such exist in the map. Please note that anyone you bring with you reflects back upon yourself. If your teammate is unsporting or rude, do not expect your reputation to go untarnished. A chance for redemption is possible, however, but make not the same mistake twice.
I have to go. May I resume where I left off?
This depends on the map. For the most of it, no, you may not directly resume your last position due to the maps being reset upon exiting. I will allow you back to where you were, though, but most non-Jewel-related items will be left behind unless they are either necessary or I'm in a fluffeh mood.
One exception to this will be TBL #2 when it is completed. Each player or team will have an individual save file, for it is not expected that this map will be completed in one sitting.
I really like your maps, any way I can support you?
Wow, really? Well, I make these maps for everyone's enjoyment, and intend no physical/monetary gain from them, but if you do want to show your care/support, you can try some of the following:
Click the ↑ at the bottom of this post. Every little number down there helps boost my motivation to keep doin' what I'm doin'.
Leave a comment here reviewing the map(s) you played. I like hearing from the players about what they think of the map(s) and what can be done to improve the experience.
Rate the maps in difficulty from 1~5. I'm collecting difficulty ratings from everyone so new players can have an idea on how difficult a map will be.
If you're really into them, you could make a YouTube video of you playing a map or more, but I doubt that'll happen. -w-
Thê Bûrñt Lâñds #1 -- Volshon's Test
"Welcome to our lands. Before you can go about our world, you and a partner must prove yourselves worthy to us. Pass our test and we'll welcome you in"
Map type: Linear, co-op, puzzle. Number of Players: 2. Difficulty: 3 / 5. User difficulty: 3.25 / 5 (6 ratings) . Length: 45~90 minutes. Bird: Volshon.
Map Description:
TBL #1 is your first stop in the map series. You will not be permitted to participate in other maps until you and a partner have cleared this map, unless you have previously left a good impression on me in some other way. This map is a puzzle-based map that cannot be completed without a friend. I will be there to help you if you have nobirdy else, though.
Jewel Challenge:
Complete the map by finding all 12 Music Discs hidden throughout the map as well as do not rage quit any room. A keen eye and a slow pace through each room is key to recive the Topaz.
Those with the Topaz:
coprko123
SeraphimKnight
DivineSeraphim
MrAJGaming
Minox Muse
Walden002
TheFrozenFire
Pictures:
The hub.
"Ooh, cushy room."
A paneful room:
"Huh, what a lovely view (better than all this metal)."
The map uses water-based BUD switches.
And there's this: The prize that very few of my testers have managed to get to. Can you manage win it?
Map outline (may ruin some playing experience):
Thê Bûrñt Lâñds #2 -- Land of the Birds
This map is not complete and therefore not open for playing yet. You may, however, view it after proving your worth.
"Well done, you are indeed worthy to explore our lands, but be warned, some places aren't the most friendly to humans.... Can you restore our old altar? It's quite the task, but will show your true skill...."
Map type: Free-roam, complete the monument. Number of Players: 1+ (Note all players must be present if more than 1 participate.) Difficulty: N/A. User difficulty: N/A. Length:* Estimated 7~12 hours. Not sure, though. Bird: All. *Unlike other maps, I will have a save file for each player. I do not expect anybirdy to complete this without saving. If you do, you either cheated or need to get out some more.
Map Description:
Now that you are worthy, you are free to explore and play any map as you see fit. In TBL #2, your mission is to trek across the lands and locate the pieces to the birds' altar. Once all 10 (maybe 12) are located, head to the altar and complete it. Once completed, you will have gained favor in the eyes of everybirdy.
Jewel Challenge:
Complete each section as you think I meantfor it to be completed, meaning if you can jump it, then jump. Pillaring/bridging is no fun. Receiving the Emerald is quite the challenge.
Pictures:
Please note that all designs in the pictures are not final and may be different upon the official release of this map.
A spine-shaped bridge?
Tetrîn's temple.
Frostspire Cavern
And of course, Thê Bûñrn Lâñds logo~
Thê Bûrñt Lâñds Mîñî #1 -- Twisting Corridors
Disclaimer: By the end of this map, you may hate me.
"Welcome to my area of our realm, human. You may have gained their favour easily, but get through here and I may respect you...."
Map type: Maze. Number of Players: 1+ Difficulty: 2 / 5 User difficulty: 2.67 / 5 (3 ratings). Length: 20~40 minutes. Bird: Volshön.
Map Description:
My area is a...simple maze. Make your way through 6 floors while collecting beautiful Lapis. Easy, aye?
Jewel Challenge:
Find the Happy Hole for each floor and gain access to the final room after doing so. An Onxy will be your reward.
Those with the Onxy:
mT Wrath
SeraphimKnight
DivineSeraphim
Pictures:
This is a maze and ruining the theme of each floor would be no fun, now would it?
Thê Bûrñt Lâñds Mîñî #2 -- Fun Run...?
"Everybirdy needs a break from the stresses of life. I have created a simple course where you can race your comrades and have fun doing it~"
Map type: Race, parkour. Number of Players: 1+ Difficulty: 2 / 5 User difficulty: N/A. Length: 6~10 minutes. Bird: Auren.
Map Description:
A fun race through the various terrains of Thê Bûrñt Lâñds from the plains to the heavens, all while using Speed II. It's not too difficult, but also not too easy. Not recommended for those who have little or no parkour experience. Invite a friend...or six and have at it!
Jewel Challenge:
Defeat both me and a friend in the race. However, I refuse to race you until you have gone through the course at least once. You may, however, race a friend if you both either have or haven't been through the course. An Amethyst will be your reward.
Nobirdy has officially received an Amethyst yet, but the two Seraphims are trying their very best to win a race (or have me fail one~♥).
Pictures:
"Padkour"
Ascending into the heavens.
Crypt running, anyone?
And you can vandalize this worthless farm!
...And run through here...
Best times:
1: Elbling360 -- 8:02:02 2: vG InCensE -- 8:18:10 3: BlueDevil919 -- 11:19:07 4: big boi va -- 11:42:32 5:

It's 4 weeks of work and many extra hours of tweaking and testing.
But the fun's not complete there.
TBL #2 is nearing its completion--all that needs completion is Shazöl's...ahem...area and I need to throw in a few random structure here and there for random finds.
But while you wait upon that, don't forget TBLM #1 and #2 are open and ready for playing~♪
Thê Bûrñt Lâñds #2 is coming along very well and I expect the land layout to be completed within 2 weeks!
And a few things players can expect to find in this map....
Hours of game play.
Background information on my characters.
Humour scattered throughout.
Stories within the map's story.
Semi-unique biomes.
Beaches...not from TU9.
Beatiful mountains (apparently btter than most).
Impressively large structures.
Many smaller structures not mapped.
Many TU9 features (except the Ender Dragon).
A different type of "map."
A challenging, but not rage-inducing experience!
I expect the map itself to be open in about a month after I have all the TU9 items utilized and have played through the entire map with a friend (note you can play solo).
Anyhow...I came to give a shoutout to GT: Sasuke D Uchiha!
This player completed both TBL #1 and TBLM #1 to Jewel standard single-handedly tonight and even was the first to best me in a race in TBLM #2.
Well done, my good fledgling! You and the Seraphims are now tied for the most progess (except they need to beat me in a race instead)~
A big kudos to Sasuke D Uchiha for being the first to acquire all three Jewels and setting an amazing speed record of 7:06 in TBLM #2!
Well done, Saskue~♫
lol i actually know sasuke on the xbox. i met him on BO2

TBL #1 has now been updated to TU9 standards with a few changes:
The dark room now has a controlled mob spawn.
The victory shower is even more inane.
The clocks in chests are now mounted on the walls.
TBL #2 is also on its way to completion. If anyone readin this is good at or knows of a good jungle-style temple design, feel free to PM me here and if I like it, I will credit (or make a reference to) you in the map.
In addition to that, my Eight Biomes PvP arena has been it by a few changes:
The centre chests have been moved--one to each biome.
The End biome now has a Dragon Egg atop the "exit portal."
A few spawn eggs have been added to the chests.
Frame-mounted torches have bee added.
Small visual changes in the map have been made.
A Nether and End arena are in the process of being added~
Stay tuned, everybirdy. The massive TBL #2 map is nearing its completion!
