Looking it over, I think I am most excited about the banners! Heraldry! WOOOOO!
There are a ridiculous number of options. Thirty eight patterns, which can be layered up to 6 layers deep, and can each be applied to 16 different color backgrounds, and which can in turn be able to be applied *in* 16 different colors each as well. There are enough patterns that every human on earth could have half a million, and never repeat.
I hereby move that we should establish a College of Arms for our Minecraft server, when it is updated to include banners. Each player can create and register their personal arms for use on the server, and the rest of us should (voluntarily) respect that. I would be delighted to build and maintain an official building where the arms of each player are displayed with the owners name, and where folks could come see what's been used.
Not to get too far ahead of things, but I would propose that no player can register a plain field of color without pattern - those should be available for use by everybody without limitation (not that there would be a rule prohibiting people from doing whatever they want, but again, it would be nice to voluntarily respect each others' banners as a bit of fun). Folks working together could choose to do their own fully, or could adopt a collective base with brisures for each person. Similar for our families that play. All sorts of fun possibilities!
