Heys everyone.
Since the server was kinda "immobile" I am deciding to make a new contest so people unleashed more creativity!

This is a competition is about building the best road!  



Deadline will be two weeks :)until 19 August!
Have fun and looking forward for everyone's submissions!

It sounds like a lot of fun! I'll do it in a build world on single player.

-This road was designed on the Hermitcraft server, but I did design the part that goes up the slope on the left and the gradual turn on the right side.
-Stone Bricks and stone half-slabs.

This is a really fun contest idea! I've got to come up with something new now

Also another great part to this road is that mobs cant spawn on it

Is It An Original Design: Mostly it is. The "street lamps" is based on what I seen on a few servers I been onto before. I just thought that it looks like a good idea. The rest of the road is original and thought up on how it'll look as I build it. I made the slopes of the rode when is needs to go up or down hills. The bridge is a nice easy way to get from one side of a lake or river easily without having to swim.

Materials used: Obsidian (If it were to be at the center or the main entry way to the new village), glowstone, trap doors, wooden fences, Jungle wood planks, birch logs, spruce logs, white stained clay, stone slab, stone brick, stone brick stairs, and sand stone stairs.

Is It An Original Design: I build this in my singleplayer world . One idea is having standing lamps (nether brick fence + glowstone) , and other is having daylight sendors in ground and glowstone lamps turning on when night falls . I did not see any one use Soulsand as build material for parts of the road , or Netherbrick Fence , so I think that it's original idea by me (if you find some where else this design , let us know) . Actual road design is probably beeing used , but it's most simple road design .

Materials used: Coblestone Stairs for edges . Stone Brick Slabs for actual road . Stone Slabs for entrance in to peoples houses . Soul Sand for standing lamps design . Nether brick Fences , for standing lamps design (5 high) . Glowstone for standing lamps design . Daylight sensor for automated light . Redstone dust for automated light . Redstone Torch for automated light . Glowstone lamp for automated light . Signs for directions (street names etc.) . Others : random bushes and tall trees for better look .

I prefer my roads to be kept simple, cheap, and also fully featured.

Overground is a nice, clean, perfectly lit and spaced road. Intersections can occur either over a light, or between lights (between lights is shown here).

Underneath runs a rail system which follows the road.

Both together. While I have used a block of redstone here, I have used that for simplicity only.

Stairs. Lighting would need to be fixed on a per-case basis.

Made out of Smoothstone, Stone Bricks, Redstone Lamps, and a little bit of elbow grease.

Great submissions so far!! Thanks guys.

Looking forward for more

I really want to make one but I got so much work to do irl and on pc. Hope I'll make it before the deadline.

I spent alot of time on this, Hope you like

Uuuuuhhhhh.....Not to be mean or anything, it looks kinda messy....Can you tell us about it and what it's made out of?

Yea frothie, you need to use the template I mentioned in the first post.

It's not messy, its detailed Kirby! And ok mrs I'll see what I can do ;P

Name: Frothie
Pictures: see my other post
Is it an original design: yes! I spent a long time designing it
Materials: cobblestone, cobblestone stairs, cobblestone walls, mossy cobble, mossy walls, redstone lamp, levers, spruce wood slab, glowstone, fences, stone slabs, water, grass xD don't think I missed anything

I kinda think as well it's messy and too big.
I don't understand what is the road and what's not.
Where is it suppose to go?
And you are suppose to make a road, not a complete building.

I think frothie has this road design as a part as his place, so it might look messy but it's integrated into his place so the things around the road are a part of frothie's place. It's really nice, but an actually showing of how it would be without it being part of frothie's place would be nice.

Exactly why I asked a brand new road...
Not embed to a building. Otherwise it's not fair to the other contesters.
Sorry Frothie, cannot accept your submission.

well is the village supposed to be on a completely flat surface? the designs in the walls are for when the road goes on a hill or something. And I was trying to show different ways of doing the same road. I suppose that i can go and recreate the road without all the fanciness haha

Edit: Also sniper i created a new creative world, this isnt on the server.
