Exactly, it was either that or a crude joke involving two chickens, a diamond pickaxe and Angelina Jolie. 

God damn that's bloody specific

Are you saying you wouldn't dig a new expansion to Angelina Jolie's underground chicken farm?

I'd be willing to pay for Qaz to upgrade the server if neccesary myself too Though it generally runs pretty stable. The amount of time those two play on Pece's server is insane though, it's like they're part of the scenery.

[achtung]

We should all pitch in and convince qaz to switch to linode. They have a 1GB VPS for $39.99/m, and they don't suck.

if you mean the stuff in the water, then thats something we have the 1.8.1 worldgen to thank for.

Ah, okay.  It initially looked strange how the dynmap was rendering it, so I thought it was something other than water.

I was getting thoroughly lost on your server last night trying to find deathfun's new area, and I came across some pretty amazing stuff.  It seems like almost everyone has enough resource-harvesting capabilities to supply the whole server themselves. I was really impressed by that massive pagoda-esque structure with the Minecraft dude statue fairly close to spawn, though I couldn't for the life of me figure out how to get to the rail line leading directly to it.  Whoever made that large-scale mob spawner near bedrock with the clock-controlled water collector is a mad genius.  Really like the pumpkin decor at whoever's place is up north; some of those dyed-wool floors nearly blinded me. I enjoyed Flipside's "magical forest," and his tree farm proper is nothing short of gargantuan.

Really? How come the IRC channel and old server URL (http://rhx123.atbh.us/minecraftserver/) were in your name then?

thank the spawner project for that.

  I was really impressed by that massive pagoda-esque structure with the Minecraft dude statue fairly close to spawn, though I couldn't for the life of me figure out how to get to the rail line leading directly to it.

That part is made by Tweeds, and the rail to there is actually still in the courtyard of the spawn house. When you exit the house, head to the exit on the left.   

Whoever made that large-scale mob spawner near bedrock with the clock-controlled water collector is a mad genius. 

yokoso started it, flipside, micos, baurge and myself joined in on the fun, 4 days later and a 48x48(or bigger, not sure exactly) square was dug out (and by dug out, i mean dug out. no worldedit, no fastmine, no creative mode. back in 1.7.1 iirc.) i think most of us still have ****tons of resources left from that.

the mechanism down there is my construction, after the initial epicfail that didnt crush the mobs properly. i think its the third iteration of the "monster mash"

Really like the pumpkin decor at whoever's place is up north; some of those dyed-wool floors nearly blinded me.

i think thats by flipside and yoko together.

I enjoyed Flipside's "magical forest," and his tree farm proper is nothing short of gargantuan.

heh.

i think everyone pops by there every now and then, harvests then replants

[Flipside]

The checkered floor could be me or Yoko, he pinched my idea because he liked it, but the pumpkin decoration suggests you found either The Farm or the Temple, probably the farm, since the rail link to Spider Mines and the Temple is quite hard to find atm

Just finished my first "True" deep mine run, and was the rewards were great. At one point, I completely abused the 1st rule of minecraft and ended up in redstone heaven, and was promptly in cave spider hell. After that, I came across a skeleton spawn room with a couple of chests that had eight diamonds in total. After it was cleaned out, it was sealed and marked. After a while of exploring, marking, path laying (left a strip of dirt in the left side of the passages) and squeeing in glee at the amount of ore that mine has in it, I went back to my forward outpost and dug straight up, knowing I'd hit the swamp somewhere near my fort.
Imagine my surprise that after three hours, countless tunnels and kilometers walked and a proverbial fraktonne of mobs slain, I end up not 40 feet from my perimeter wall and main door....but under the surrounding swamp. A quick dirt square and a bucket o' lava soon solved that.

Next step to be taken tomorrow?
*Secure the mine access properly and make it easier to get to (probably by expanding the wall).
*Set up a powered rail system so that I can get to the abandoned mine.
*Kill stuff
*?????
*PROFIT!!

Nothing compared to the stuff that you guys have done, but considering that after my first attempt left me with a VERY rational fear of Endermen and the deeper levels, I am bloody proud of myself for not dying while wearing only iron body armour and leather trousers.

Yeah, I did see you poking around there on dynmap earlier today.

[Grimper]

By the way, what's all that cloudy-textured stuff on pece's dynmap?

Land on dynmap is colour coded by height. The cloudy white stuff is high land, like mountains, and the lower you go, the darker the colour gets. Notice how JC's castle is set in a very dark area, because the land there has been lowered.

Use the HD map, It's awesome 

On the panel on the right it should be the 2nd of 5 options for the main world.

Hey deathfun, I started putting up a quick little hut a ways north of your big project on the same island.  It's the sort of thing that'll be quick to take down if/when you need to expand up to that area.  Lord knows I have my hands full enough with qaz's server, but I'll gladly plop down a house in your city once you get it up and running.

My city takes the entire island
I need more than just one house D:

I still need a layout too actually... god damn

People were asking if they could donate to server running costs, so, uh, here's a donation link. If there's enough, I'll upgrade the server to get another 512MB of ram, it's another $10 a month, but there's also a CPU upgrade to 2GHz, double the storage space (not an issue at the moment) and (although it means little given our usage,) an extra 1TB of bandwith

[rhx123]

nothing2strange and I have been working on rolling out a high-speed rail network using mostly existing track originating from the new main station under spawn.
Just to give you an idea of the progress:

• It takes under a minute to get from spawn to old trashmania
• Travel time from spawn to Fenris has been halfed

The trains operate on a fully automated switching system, simply read the destination on the sign above the platform, get in and press the button. The switches along the way will autoswitch to bring you to your destination
