Detailed Idea Description
Proposal to add thematic seasons, which would:
- Establish a suggested theme/style for structures or islands
- Be based on reduced prices for specific blocks or their categories (perhaps an additional category /shop for discounted items)
- Also allow for slightly increasing or decreasing the earnings of some chosen professions for that period, and perhaps the purchase/sale prices of corresponding items
- Season duration contests - depending on the theme, this could be a building contest, a combat tournament, a friend activity contest, or something similar.
- Minimal server GUI changes (colors, fonts, symbols), which would contribute to the existing server theme
- Allow players to choose to play with season limitations in exchange for offering an additional advantage. (E.g., On an island, you cannot have villagers, but a stone generator has a chance to generate diamonds. || Cannot use robots, but you have Haste 2 on the island all the time, etc.)
- Provide the ability to create an island according to the season's template.
These seasons would change several times during the period between WIPEs, e.g., if the duration is 1 year, then a new season every 3 months.
