One big underwater dome, with real water. =D

Another map like blizzard would be cool, just without the snowing. ;)

how about a bunch of tall

how about a bunch of tall plateaus and hoodoos and stuff.
I think gigantic pillars of rock that widen at the top could be cool, cause people could build on the flat tops, and down in the depths between the pillars there could be little hidden buildings and stuff...

^^ linky
Maybe something roughly based off dozen or so giant versions of those with crevaces deep between them?

EDIT: a very crappy rough sketch of what im talkin about

Sky Islands

A map with alot of sky islands would be really cool, and you could have like water, or maybe just ground below.

A cave system

Definitely a cave system, lots of tunnels and some GIANT caverns to connect them, maybe 4 or 5 caverns with 1 in the middle. And no surface. Or a surface, but no building there except by OPs or something, like making a garden and other stuff you would build if you finally found light. And lava in big caves near the bottom, preferably real lava. That would be sweet.

EDIT: Sky islands would be good too.

Sky Islands

Well since so many people are building sky islands on the normal servers I don't see why not.

refer to this and use world

refer to this and use world machine. somewhere in the deepest darkest depths of the thread there is a tutorial but its basically make map, export heightmap, shove into omen, save. you'll probably need to fiddle with the world machine settings to get the map the right size but it creates lots of very nice landscapes. :D

I actually use that

I actually use that sometimes, but I fiddle with the heightmaps in Photoshop.

Flatgrass

Big big flatgrass, with theme - citybuild.

I hate that every project on World of Minecraft is separated :/

It would be nice but...

It would be nice to have a themed map but how are we gonna ensure all the builders follow the theme?

map idea

a giant underground ruins from a past civilization.  At the top, you could have an op city on a regular flatgrass.  Use the hexagonal pattern with unbreakable bricks to insure that non-ops can't get to the surface.  You could even make a jail with a veiw of the surface while they can't access it!

Few problems with that.

Just a few problems with this suggestion.


  1. 1. All blocks are deletable.
  2. 2. Noclip and flyhax can deliver to surface.
  3. No jails are hosted on World of Minecraft servers because they are easily deleted.

Terribly sorry if I hindered your thoughts.

heheh

those who know me should expect this from me..... a hell map, with stalagtites/mites and loads of lava, all seemingly in a underground cavern with multiple areas.

Ideas

Hmm I'll throw down a few ideas:

Someone said a cave map, I like that idea.  Enormous caverns with small, interconnecting passages, stalactites, stalagmites, and little or no surface area would be pretty nifty.  Would be tough to make in an editor though.  Comparatively limited space would also force people to think about their
builds a bit more, rather than using /fill to cover the map in giant
square castles.

A jungle map, with enormous trees.  Hand crafted gigantic trees made by three or four people, then copy/pasted across the map creating a dense canopy which effectively divides top and bottom.  Would be terrific for treehouses, villiages, and the like.  Same thing with the slightly limited space as above.  Let me know if you need help making trees, I make a mean tree.

A cloud map.  Puffy white clouds of white and grey cloth to build on, there could be several layers of these down to the bottom of the map, or perhaps a small amount of ground below.  Awesome for airships, and flying builds, as well as cloud castles and the like.

Ice fields/Glaciers map.  This might be difficult to make as well, but but sheer cliffs of ice with glaciers, and maybe a flat, tundra part with water underneath as well.  Could add all sorts of cracks and breaks throughout the map.  Great for all things cold.

Steampunk map.  Of course I'd suggest this, more a theme than a map idea, but it would lead to some pretty neat builds.  Maybe a cliff filled, canyon map with a river running through.  A small town somewhere of mostly wood and stone to get people started.

I've got a whole whack more, hopefully theres something worthwhile in there though.
