Hello. So I decided I would post this to let anyone know that some friends and I are working on an enormous cruise ship to serve as an MCSG map. And obviously to be suitable for MCSG, it truly does need to be ENORMOUS. However, this is an extremely slow project, there are only 3 of us working on it and our building skills are nothing above amateur. We are doing this because we think it would be an awesome, fun, and most of all different kind of MCSG map that we have never seen attempted. So if we get this done and have it come out halfway decent it would be an amazing accomplishment.

What we do have done is most of the front of the shell of the ship, as well as some sample cut outs of what the inside rooms would look like. We also have an oval shaped dome that the completed ship will be put inside, complete with an ocean full of stationary water that you can't swim in, so that there can be no water battles of any kind. Now I could post screenshots of these things, but at this stage I really don't see the point.

Now keep in mind, I have no idea how long this will take. Could be a few weeks, could be a few months. Building is really not my cup of tea, but we're trying anyway. Now, let me know what you think of the idea. Would you like to play on a giant cruise ship? Or do you think we're completely wasting our time with this? Is there anything we should know regarding rules about maps? Please let us know!

Sounds like a cool map, but how will you stop people from swimming?

It involves stationary water. I'm sure BobbyQ is familiar with that since apparently he has been working on that same kind of map. :D

If you fall into it, you're dead. Simple as that. There is no way to not fall through it to your death. If only breeze had that :p

As he said, there is stationary water. Have you ever played some TIMV maps with water? Like frozen cargo and I think one other? It would be like that.

There is a one block layer of water. But since it is thin, any time you fall, you fall into the void. And, because the ship is high up, I don't think it will be possible to survive any fall. So thankfully there will be no long water chases. Oh how I hate those.

When you say enormous how big do you mean? I'm currently doing a map the radius of 500

Not sure the size specs, but I know it will be big enough for a map. Codered1218, can you tell us the size in blocks?
