Western District
The district west of the original shoreline which includes the flats and the Metertick District was filled in with the gracious help of Krenath and his worldedit powers.
<George_Mann> Krenath you can nuke bodies of water outta existence right? <Krenath> I can. <George_Mann> ok <Krenath> I even have a better way of doing it now. <George_Mann> really :D <George_Mann> im gonna fill this area with dirt <Krenath> DO you have some kind of corner markers or borders for where you want the dirt to go? <George_Mann> I was plannin on havin two large landmasses and a channel of water goin down the middle <Krenath> Stopping this far north? <George_Mann> yep ... <George_Mann> uh oh <Krenath> That might have been a bit too big a chunk to do all at once... One mass timeout later <George_Mann> ty krenath :D <Krenath> Server didn't crash. It just temporarily decided to pay attention to other things for a few seconds...
And thus marks the story of how I asked a supergod for 100k dirt and created the western district...
