gollark: Great, I'll dump my entire modlist into there!
gollark: If you do do this, I'd like to at least advise on a modpack.

gollark: There is that mod to autogenerate a city by McJty, which would be nicer than a player-designed world.
gollark: As I said, with "no cheating"/"no being a toxic idiot" (and other obvious ones) as the rules, and no claims, and *enough players*, and a decent modpack, it could be fun.
