Twig Posted May 28, 2012 Well recording is easy enough, but the actual build planning is hard. Plan: help Twig dig his pit! U; Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Choidoken Posted May 28, 2012 Well recording is easy enough, but the actual build planning is hard. Yeah, I know. Even harder when there's rarely anyone on the server right now. But this might interest people! I'm up for the challenge Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
elmuerte Posted May 28, 2012 Maybe you should first finish the stuff you are working on instead of creating another half finished project Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AteBit Posted May 28, 2012 There already are quite a few large builds in progress. Some more finished than others... maybe somebody could use some help. Though it's likely most people are making it up as they go. So it would be hard to split the job. That said, if the server isn't resetting any time soon, I'd be up for another large build. Do you have something in mind? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Do you have something in mind? A big castle. Erect a giant creeper statue in the courtyard. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AteBit Posted May 28, 2012 What kind of castle? Got something specific in mind? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AteBit Posted May 28, 2012 another castle? I had the same thought initially, but I do believe it is something every Minecraft player needs to get out of their system. It is as if people can't see the innumerable build possibilities hidden behind the mighty ramparts of their dream castle. And we should give him the benefit of doubt. Maybe he has a really cool idea for a castle. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Choidoken Posted May 28, 2012 another castle? I was never there for y's so I missed out on alot. What kind of castle? Got something specific in mind? I want to say big, but I don't know when Tabacco will re-roll or if he's just going to move spawn point somewhere else. So this is just a maybe if you all want in on this. I'm not good at castle designs but if you have anything on your mind, post away, let us know. And when I say big, I mean bigger than y's. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe he has a really cool idea for a castle. Crap, you posted before I did. My bad! But if you're not down with a castle (that was just a thought) we can definitely build another building. I'm up for any suggestions! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AteBit Posted May 28, 2012 Nothing is happening, there's no need to treat me as a looming threat. Then explain to me why when I read your posts it sounds like rolling thunder in my head. As for the castle. I don't mind making a castle. I'm more into it for the co-op build experience. As for ideas, I'd like to put out the following ideas... floating (start at cloud layer, no silly land mass underneath), lots of spires, asymmetric with some interesting play with verticality, and most importantly modular so when interest wanes we end up with one unfinished structure among other finished pieces, instead of a giant unfinished project.

Laxan Posted May 28, 2012 Legend has it, one day Tabacco will return to these humble lands, and rain his smite down upon the earth itself, shifting eras as well as the world. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Forbin Posted May 29, 2012 Ok, so next patch is villager centric, so maybe we should work together on fixing our villager problem. We need to get them from the far village over to a closer center. And maybe I'll siphon off a few dozen to start iron production. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AteBit Posted May 29, 2012 All you need is two, and just breed the shit out of them. The villager kids spawn as a random type, so you don't need to get one of each type to get all the trading options. So don't kill yourself trying to haul a bunch cross country. Plus you can haul off the extras to the iron farm. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
subbes Posted May 29, 2012 factory farmed villagers? That's totes inauthentic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Plus you can haul off the extras to the iron farm. Yeah, but we still need to move at least 2 of them all the way from the east. It should be a simple as building a bunch of pillars and then placing and removing doors to chain them along. We won't need any track. But I've scouted it out, and it's not a fun trek.

elmuerte Posted May 29, 2012 I made a little quest on the server. It starts on the bottom floor of spawn (behind the dragon egg). It's a series of riddles on signs, and could be quite difficult. (note, you can post clues/answers here if you like, but use spoiler tags) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AteBit Posted May 29, 2012 Ooh a quest. I'll give it a go on the weekend. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gditz Posted May 29, 2012 https://dl.dropbox.c...473/Success.png I might have just stumbled upon the sign because the binary one got me close, but still a bit away. Have I missed anythng? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Laxan Posted May 29, 2012 Is it repeatable or is Gditz the winner forever? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
elmuerte Posted May 30, 2012 I might have just stumbled upon the sign because the binary one got me close, but still a bit away. Have I missed anythng? The binary one is the second last sign. Sadly the last sign is just within the view distance when you set it to max :/ How long did it take you to figure out the signs? I have no idea on how difficult I made it.

elmuerte Posted May 30, 2012 Is it repeatable or is Gditz the winner forever? It's just a series of signs. So it's repeatable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
