1st house - A very solid build overall, the only thing I would perhaps change is the spread of the fish/herb/meat blocks, Try to have them in one location rather than sprinkled around the house.
- do not use plowed soil/soul sand in a regular dirt gradient, instead use mud
- the net over the firewood inside is bit meaningless
Otherwise I like it
2nd house - Pretty much perfect, the only recommendation I can give is to replace the table drawer for bench drawer block, since that one doesnt have the metal handle and would fit better in a lower class house
3rd house
INTS
- have the carpet in one piece, it will look better and make more sense (dont be afraid to have it cover almost all of the floor)
- do not have storage blocks on places that are hard to get to (via ladder etc...) and limit them to 3-5 per lowclass house (exts included) unless there is more specific reason for them.
-single piston tables are very unstable, having only one leg, id recommend using something simple instead of them (slab with 2 halfdoors, crate, etc...)
-having the sausages hang on a horizontal rope rather than a diagonal one would make it look better and allow another item to hang next to them
Exts: try to use up more of the yards area, right now its mostly grass with very small amount of veggie patches. Increase the amount and size of the patches
- make sure a path always connects to them
Otherwise well done!

Hello Vertechs looks like your probations time limit is up and you are still lacking a house! Is there any specific reason you did not manage to reach the required number, do you need an extension or did you lose interest in the server? Please let me know! So we can adjust accordingly!
cheers simba

Unfortunately I can no longer be part of the server for some time, therefore I am unable to review your house, I would kindly like to ask @Emotione11 to finish your probation period with you instead of me.
My deepest apologies,

Hey Vert, sorry I got a busy stint before I was able to look, but the White Harbor house looks really cool! I only have a couple pointers (on a couple challenging parts of doing diagonal houses):
- The garden door, from the inside, looks a little odd with the full block hovering over it. Best thing to do is to just use an upside-down stair block above the door, facing inwards (so it looks like a regular block on the outside).
- On the second floor, there's a window block right where the wall staggers, so you can see the through it on two sides. I would try to reorganize stuff a little so that doesn't happen.
Your 5 houses seem quite good though, so I'll promote you asap! Welcome (fully) to the team

Mummer
Fixed the window as best as i could without adding new walls, i think it looks ok though.
Yay!! Thank you for the promotion, I'm very much looking forward to building with y'all more.
