So the automated wheat farm is up across the river to the north in the snow biome. In the next couple days after I finish the tree I'll add on a melon wing and a reed wing. If you're bothered by the fact that I cheated to provide you with sweet, sweet sustenance, pretend we found the leftovers of some ancient culture that worshiped crops.

In the next couple days, the spawn will be moved to be in front of the fireplace up inside the tree, facing the bookshelves with signs on them. And yes, the tree (and the communal farm I'm about to build) are the only cheated things.

Nah, I just shaved the wall off on the side of the door and replaced it. Though your chest is part of the wall now. You're welcome to keep it there but it is completely flush with the new base of the tree.

Well at this rate I'd rather not play Blood Bowl at all with the luck I've been having, but I'll be playing High Elves.

I'd like to partially apologize to whomever Jon is, and partially admonish him. The fence was meant to mark where not to build. You'll have to knock a new door in your shack.

Wouldn't have been possible with the help of Thompson and Doug (Tobacco) so hats off to them really.

I'd just like to point out that when Forbin says /fly gives you Creative mode, it's only the flying mode from Creative. You don't get the ability to spawn blocks.

I believe he's allowing two of each team in the league actually.

I'll have my race for you by this time Sunday, I think. I've played most of the ones I'm interested in tonight, and eliminated a few. Ogres are just terrible, for instance. Oh, also, since I assume we're allowed to carry teams from season to season, what are the season lengths? A month?

JGL and Bruce Willis with time travel? On board.

So everyone is welcome to build a branch (or five) on the tree. Materials are in a chest on the one root that is currently built. The side of the tree facing the farm has glowstone on the exterior marking whether it's a straight or diagonal level for branches. Please note that the glowstone being used to mark the diagonal levels is on the outside of the tree, not part of the two rows of lighting. These alternate with the exception of 2 and 3 which are both diagonal. The only real rules for branches are - The higher level it is, the longer it is and the more girth it has (levels higher than 7 don't really need any vertical size, they can be one level flat branches, it's hard to tell from the ground) - Place channels of glowstone inside your leaves, but make sure it's all covered by leaves.

One root has two subway arrivals/departures tunnels started. You're welcome to claim a line and take it where you will, and anything past that initial 5-block wood tunnel is yours to form as you please.

If Baron cues in, then I would be fine with a Thumbs division or what have you. If it's just me and Destrin then it probably wouldn't hurt to randomize. But whatever happens is fine with me, if Destrin wants a Thumbs division I have no objections.

I know absolutely nothing about kendo beyond the terrifying WARPSPEED BEATINGS I've seen in videos of top-level kendo. It's just for the music, the video is stupid in every way.

Sounds like almost all of the Thumbs that are interested are relatively new, so a newbie division or two would probably be advantageous Though it might mean we were just fighting against ourselves for a season or two, rather than the rest of the people.

You can set your chests to look like barrels and then /sethome to teleport to said barrel.

So I've decided to do the Welcome Center/hub this time around, and that'll probably be my major contribution because a-bloo bloo survival . It's a World Tree, and here's what I have planned for it. - A kind of cavern under the tree similar to Blackreach in Skyrim. - Several roots (4 or 6) which go slightly underground and have subway terminals in all of them. I'll make the roots and a general shape and people are welcome to choose a color for their subway line and build the line on their own time. - Storage about half way up the tree. I wish there were softer lighting options in MC.

Man have I got a seed for you. I tired of Minecrafts idyllic rolling hills preferential generator a long time ago, but it'll help the communal spirit and there's plenty of cool stuff a short walk away for people who want something less steppes. Hansa Harrangue (I know, I know, misspelled, I was tired) *Removed screens of a pretty cool seed* Is the forum upgrade going to contain thumbnail capabilities Doug?

Fair enough.

What's the uh, IP Doug? Unless you don't want people on it for now, that's fine.

zYXjLbMZFmo I seem to be finding a lot of artists I enjoy via commercials these days.

Hey, what teams don't you have 2 of?

Like I said, my confusion absolutely comes from the fact that I've never had any real problems. It's not a realistic platform to work from, but my experience has been so relatively smooth that saying you won't buy something because of its integrated system bothers me a lot. There are people out there who won't buy anything on Steam because they think of it a lot like people have thought of Origin since it's release. Spyware, basically the devil, what have you. That gets me even more than GFWL. In the end it's just me being needlessly annoyed at something, because I just don't get how people are having these problems when my experience has been so smooth across four different computers. Don't mind me, I get a bit crazy-posting late at night.

Is GFWL always-on DRM? I can understand, if not agree with, say, not purchasing Ubisoft games for the last couple years. But if you're incensed that GFWL is always-on DRM you had better not own a single Steam game before making that argument. (Apologies if that's not what you're implying and you're just gauging my insanity. It's depth and breadth may surprise you.)

He works quick, I'll give him that.
