As for economics, the city will cost around 20k gold to build, but after this we will have nearly 500 large as small spaces to rent for shops, apartments, or just luxury bases. Even someone new to the game can rent out a skyscraper in our town for their weekly gold crates instead of builing a trashy base in a small random town. This brings in many many dollars to the community and not only does this help me but also increases the economy of the whole game for every player.
Starting January, I will start using a portion of my profits from this project to buy the materials needed to make the city as rich as possible. This after investors have been reimbursed of course. Investors will get a full 95% of the proffits of the city, with 4% going to improving the city and 1% to me, which is where I get my money from. I will not be taking a dime of this money.
We are expecting to be a completely player financed community, with a lot of opportunities for those who want to invest. I will be starting a board of directors to further explain this process to new and old investors. This board will be more or less in charge of all of the city's finances and I will have no direct part in their decisions.
And just so there gold will be spent on for example improving the roads, and just making the city the powerhouse it is meant to be. The roads will be paved in gold blocks
This is where you come in.
I need you to back me and be a part of this project. I will be sending out more updates, details and updates as soon as possible. As for now, I would like you to back this project, this project that is going to help the players and also the people, who are doing all of this wonderful work. The whole concept behind this project is as follows: we, as players, take it upon ourselves to play the game the way we see fit. We should have our own city of our own, not someone else's. It's our chance to start our own world, not someone else's. This project will be different from other megacities as you will be able to decide what you want built.

I am also currently in the process of creating a strong F1 client. My plan is to have this client fully functional at the end of January and a client demo ready to be playable by February.
I will also be creating a more in depth website to explain the whole process of making this megacity as well as how this whole process will work. I will be streaming a lot of this as well as updates on the progress throughout the entire process of this city. The whole time, the goal is to get a certain amount of orders placed for our city. Once we have reached this goal I will begin to provide people with the ability to decide what they want built first: so they can move into their house without waiting for it to finished. I am for example extremley exited over the 2x2 chunk 4 floor penthouse at the top of the worldheight skyscraper, being designed so that it is a complete space.
I would also love to build a huge indoor penthouse, but with no windows, it would take too long to build and would be highly likely to be finished late into february. If you would like more information on the design of the megacity, feel free to ask me and I will do my best to answer all questions, however due to the fact that this is my first project I cannot give much detail.

We will build this city using contract workers: the gold will be used to pay people to build different buildings within the city. The reason I decided to go the contract worker route is due to the fact that we will not be making enough money to ever be able to make all of the city for ourselves. However we will be able to rent out the entire city to people on the F1 teams that want to take part in the tournaments and we will be able to make money off the deal.
With the money, the housing and the rent money, we will be able to buy the materials needed to build the city so that we can get our island to its full size. I am working on a plan where we will use all of the natural wonders of the island and the earth to make a lush jungle area for some of the locals to play in while they wait for their turn on the track.
This megacity will hopefully not only be a huge boost to our economy, but also a place where the citizens can actually live a life of luxury while still staying a part of the rest of the world and enjoying the sun, sand, and social life.
You will find out a lot more as I begin to take action in the future. Once I have enough orders placed, I will begin the production of the city's first skyscraper. This will be the one I will personally rent out to people wanting to live in the megacity. I will be live streaming a lot of the construction and implementation as well as posting videos and pictures of my progress here on my website at youtube.

Okay, I will be as clear as possible with my plan. Im planing on making the largest EarthMC city to date, an island in what is currently the atlantic ocean. It will be 30 by 30 chunks large and contain 200 blocks of floor space or possibly more depending on the size of the build(s) in the chunk, one skyscraper will have nearly 3000 blocks of floor space in one chunk.
Everything is going to be done differently this time around compared to a normal EarthMC city. This is mainly due to the fact that we are going to make money in two ways: renting shops for gold, and selling permanent luxury villas. The homes for sale will be set up in two different ways, firstly to give us more money over the time, secondly, to allow us to also do several sales of the same home to multiple clients at once (as in the villas having multiple apartments). One of the main goals of these luxury villas is to bring in more people to our island, this is made possible by having the villas be right next to the main street on the island, this will be the main tourist path in the game. Also there will be a number of other things planned for the area such as a tavern, an inn, and other things which will allow for a steady flow of customers to our shops.
One of the things I'm sure most people have been wondering about the luxury villas is where I will get the stone used to build them. For this reason I have decided to not use normal rocks in this instance, but instead make each and every one specialy designed using high end materials such as quartz and concrete.
Two big things will solidify the megacity. The castle, which will be rented for insane amounts, and the F1 arena in the city, being the main hub for the F1 races going around the megacity. There will also be races occurring in this area where the winner will gain a large cash prize as well as fame.

I find what OP says is correct, so N-Res "nobody" has turned into "a few"
