What was your motivation to get Mayor? Is your town how you initially planned it?

My town has a single design, and just because it's extremely annoying, I don't plan on redesigning it at all.

 

my motive was sweg

 

My motivation was to help my friend out.

 

i got a town bc i needed mayor and it is right now being redesigned

 

To help out new players

 

My friend wanted me to make a town and I didn't have any sort of home before I got mayor.

 

I was tired of living out of an enderchest, so when I became a resident I saved my pennies and bought a house from Joliver in Picon. The entire town is a work of art, and the house (built and furnished by Joliver) was very beautiful. However, I felt constrained by it: I wanted a large chest room, auto furnaces, farms, and more, and there simply wasn't enough space.

I created Eris to give me room to grow. It is 200x200. Everything above ground is a multi-level pumpkin farm which I am expanding little by little. Below ground I have my storage rooms and cocoa farms. I haven't built the autosmelter (not sure about the legality) but have a big furnace room and plenty of space to grow.

I'm tempted now to upgrade to president so that I can build another "real" town (not just a pumpkin farm) but creativity is not my strong suit. If anyone here can demonstrate excellent creativity and building skills, and wants to show off by designing a town, I may have some work for you in the future.

 

Sit down children and let your uncle Steve tell you a story.

When I first joined ECC (or shortly after I suppose) I honestly had no intention of being a mayor ever. I figured it was only a waste of time, money, and energy, as most of the towns I've ventured into were neglected and heavily griefed. However, that alone also filled my desire to create a town that would last.
Finally, one day during Language Arts class, I came to the conclusion that I would save up for mayor and take my love of the Rocky Mountains that I call my home, and recreate it's glory here. Thus I decided to create an entire 400x400 nation with an artificial mountain and ski resort encompassing two towns, a large city-scape, and a 200x200 farm.

Of course it didn't turn out that way though. I had planned out every block of every town but as of now, only the city-scape, La_Ciudad, has remained somewhat along what I had planned. The farm town was completely scrapped and instead is just a normal plot town with a small farm. My mayor town, Machiavellia, is only partially what I had planned, Partyman909 basically messed up a lot of it so that was fun (it now sits neglected and heavily griefed as I've had no time to manage it and all my co-mayors keep going inactive). Lastly, my fourth town which has to hold the other half of my ski area, hasn't even been applied for yet.

TLDR; motivation was to make it better than what was already there. Very little that was planned was actually built.

 

Go coloradians! I grew up in littleton and spent high school in parker! It would be cool to have a town like that.

 

I think I wanted mayor because I hated blending into Party chat and Donor chat... also when I saw the spot that is now my mayor town, I fell in love with it, and had to have it.

 

wait you haven't got mayor???

 

Of course I have, I'm a President

 

My motive was to create an empire to rival welikeike's. Of course that never materialized, so I make it a town for me and a few buddies to live in. Yeah it lived up to what I wanted it to because I'm proud of my work and it suits its purpose.

 

what work works. All that matters is having fun!

 

i believe that my motivation at the time was to be like my old town mayor

 

So I could make my builder only town!

 

I always loved the gated communities in my area, so I planned the town of Las Sendas to mimic one. The plan itself has never changed, but I tore down and rebuilt the houses a lot because I couldn't get them just right. I'm on the third (and hopefully, my co-mayors think, last) rebuild, from oak wood to wool/wood to stained clay.

 

My real motivation was to simply have a 200x200 place I could call my own, and simply build what I feel like. I went into having a town with no real plans laid out, I figured I'd work on it on the fly, and so far, I'm happy with it. Plus, I like having a big creeper with arms protecting my little castle.

 

My town only had one design and has been through every single map reset?
And its still incomplete :3

My motivation was to built something massive all with in game money and resources on ECC.
