    Overview

    In the nation of Caprica, we will attempt one of our most daring and largest projects yet; an almost life-sized model of the titanic. The construction of this monstrosity will require approximately 200,000 blocks of construction materials. Here is a preview of what it's going to look like:

    However, we are going to require massive amounts of money in order to purchase the land required for the build and the massive amounts of construction materials, estimated at approximately $500,000 in total. Therefore, any donations for this project is appreciated.

    Donations

    As an added bonus, you will receive perks for donating:

    $1,000 to $2,999: Free Unlimited TPs from Outerlocal
    $3,000 to $4,999: Price reductions on rooms, ranging from 25% to 50% shall you wish to reside inside the Titanic in the future

    $10,000 to $14,999: Free second-class rooms inside the Titanic
    $15,000 + : Free First-class rooms inside the Titanic

    The Titanic is going to be approximately 1/10th of my nation, one project among approximately 10-15 that are all well into the 100k. Currently, we are planning around 6-7 towns with skyscrapers. We have currently developed an island at a cost of around $150k and are planning to invest more money into it. In total, this nation is going to consume approximately 2 million dollars.

    The rms titanic is my favourite ship. I have seen all the movies, docs and researched it. I will help you build it and supply materials once you have a town surcured.

    I can give you free perm to my farm so you can make up to 20k an hour when it finished.

    The titanic was 270 meters long which is 1 1/4 towns length in minecraft scale.

    But I will fund a lot if I can help build it and have a first class room.

    Thank you for all your support! So far, we have nearly amassed the $155,000 required for our next town in order to start construction. After all the donations have been paid, we will even have around $10,000 left over to start building. The design has been slightly enlarged and is now approximately 280 meters long (it used to be around 200 meters.) It is also hard to get a pinpoint precision of the actual length of 270 meters.

    Isn't it just 270 blocks? 1 block = 1 meter cubed, right?

    1 meter cubed is not 1 meter across.

    Due to the increase of town prices, the estimated pricing has gone up from $250,000 to $500,000.

    1 block is 1 sq/m because the block is 1 m by 1m. Cube value is base x width x height which is 1m(3).
