    1. What is your ingame name? killjoy213
    2. What is your current Builder rank? I am currently a Novice Builder.
    3. Are you the only Builder on this project? Yes
    4. What are the coordinates to your project (Optionally /sw coordinates)? Are there any nearby nether portals? Overworld: (0,938); /sw: (0,117.25); I believe there is one nether portal on the other side of the mesa mountain, in a swamp.

    I voted no, and ill explain why.

    In my opinion there just is not much to it. Not enough content or actual building done to it for me to feel right voting yes on a builder rank. The tree is a nice touch but really all there is here is a small cave with railway that goes nowhere and a path up to some chests and a nice tree and small pond.

    Don't get me wrong it looks pleasant but there really isn't much building to it. It looks like maybe a half hour or less of time spent decorating a floating island.

    It wasn't until a couple hours after submitting the project that I realized this might have been a problem: lack of content. I guess I had thought the actual island itself would qualify as building, but I was afraid terraforming would be disregarded in the process of judging. Thank you for your perspective, exa.

    An example of something would be if you had expanded the island to be much bigger then added in proper ruins as well as an actual mine with ores and a railway that went deep into it. With a much larger floating island you could do so much more with it that is actual building and not just decorating an existing small island.

    Wait, just to clear things up. You are aware that the island was built from scratch, right? There was an empty mass of air when I began the build, and it took me a lot longer than it would seem. In regards to the building suggestions, I appreciate the tips! :)

    No, actually i wasn't. It has floating islands around it and looks similar in size to what generates naturally in a floating island biome. I apologize for thinking you just decorated an existing one, that is what it appears like.

    Side note, you are now my 2,000th post ;) thanks! lol.

    I voted yes, simply because it is a good start, but I would to see this built upon into something more.
