How I Convinced 800'000 People To Build A Digital City With Me

WHERE IS THE SUN?: @WhereIsTheSun

Statville is now a year old! How crazy is that? It's been a truly amazing experience building it. Thank you to everyone who's joined so far and to all the community members that make it the great place that it is :)

YOU WERE THE CREATOR OF STATVILLE?! this is one of the coolest thing i think i've ever seen on the internet, major props man

Crazy to think about the early days when I followed and the next day saw that +2 new "citizens." Joined. And I was one of them. I'm glad to be the one before the first 500 followers.

3:11 "Take the Default Cube, delete it, take another one and start extruding" Ah yes, a man of the people i see

[DiversionG]

Would be fun to see a videogame that works like this, where you can join a city and automatically generate a house

Hope you enjoyed the recap!
There are so many more topics that simply did not fit into this video... So let let me know if you'd like to see a part 2! :)

Deleting the defult cube and adding one to model is the most blender thing ever

If anyone hasn't joined the discord yet, you definitely should. I've had so much fun on the server and being a part of this community, and have made so many new friends, especially being part of the moderation team.

I am honoured to be an admin on our lovely discord (join it!!!) and to have watched this project grow since around day 50. this work is incredible and I am so happy to be such a big part of the community ❤ here’s to even more!

As a long term resident of Statville, being here since the boom on days 156-158, I'm glad to say that I'm extremely grateful for the community. Everyone is so kind and friendly, I have made many friends within the server going all the way up to our lovely Neil! I own Wake Up Brew and I'm happy to put the work in for it that I do- although I should put more in- procrasination is a monster and finally- I'm very thankful for you Mr. Statville for this amazing city, without it I'm sure I would still feel alone, even with my non-statville friends, they have lives and I wasn't able to socialise as much as I wanted to due to not having any friends irl (ik sad)

I 100% recommend joining the discord server and the community within, we'd love to have you!

YOU ARE THE PERSON BEHIND STATVILLE? Props to you man I remember following you when you were at 300 followers man. Keep up the great work because it was a lot of fun seeing the city grow each day!

Honestly that vc was wild. I’ve had so many good memories being part of the admin team on that discord server

So happy to see that Statville wasnt just a one of project. It is unreal to see the city building being done by one person and to keep it up for a year, most people would had given up after a week.

[sunnykinoko]

this is incredible. even the animation on this video alone is some of the best ive seen on youtube and really shows you put a load of love into your projects. excited to see everything to come!

I remeber joining statville when it had around 600 residents. What a wonderful and insightful journey it had been!!

Thanks for featuring us at the SPL, namely Statville United News and SPL Central <3 We've currently got 2 divisions, 14 clubs, and many news outlets, hope it keeps growing alongside the city

[BenXBean]

This is such a great and creative idea. I love how interactive you were with everyone in your community and I can definitely tell you spent countless hours perfecting and working on this project. I are a huge inspiration to me and reminded me that you can achieve anything.

Thank you

Joining Statville has been one of the best things to happen to me, I’ve met so many amazing people that I love dearly, it’s just an amazing community

[Croxy]

Ah sadly, statville is dying after they decided to make weekly reports, nevertheless, i am glad i can be part of this awesome city ❤

[lemonfire]

The fanbase surrounding this project has been wild. Especially the strong Discord community - one that I myself have been a part of since its release 7 months ago, and is a long-time moderator of. Many memories with people who've I encountered along the way, especially amongst the really tight Staff Team.
Love this project - here's to more years with a solid, uptight community. 🥂
