toblix Posted October 30, 2011 October 30th Never Forget Or is it the 29th there still? Oh, and thanks for doing the thing! I haven't really been active at all, but some cool stuff has definitely been built. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tabacco Posted October 30, 2011 Okay, http://idlemc.com has been moved over to the thumbs server. It's now serving a stripped-down page with just the past epoch downloads. The sixth and most recent is uploading right now, so it'll probably be a few minutes before it's ready to go. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Forbin Posted December 20, 2011 When we're ready to start looking for servers, there is an official forum where people post to attract players: http://www.minecraftforum.net/forum/45-minecraft-survival-servers/ It'd be nice to find a pure legit world, I find playing single player doesn't have much appeal anymore.

Forbin Posted February 29, 2012 The link for the last epoch on idlemc.com seems to be broken. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Forbin Posted April 6, 2012 Starting to think about playing some MP Minecraft survival again. Anyone else interested in hunting down a server? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AteBit Posted April 7, 2012 I just started up on VanillaCraft about a week ago (haven't done much yet). Last server I was on shut down without warning (the third one in as many months). As for VanillaCraft, It's okay so far, though the server reboots on the hour every hour, which is a bit odd. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MrHoatzin Posted April 7, 2012 Maybe if there is interest idlemc.com could come back... Found this the other day: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AteBit Posted April 7, 2012 Maybe if there is interest idlemc.com could come back... I'd be up for that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
elmuerte Posted April 7, 2012 we could create a kickstarter ... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AteBit Posted April 8, 2012 Will any of the kickbacks be made of diamonds? Seriously though, I'd gladly chip in 10CAD (maybe more) a month towards hosting fees. A few more guys (3?) putting 10$ each, and we can get something decent I think. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Forbin Posted April 8, 2012 I think Tabacco's last server was costing about 60 a month. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tabacco Posted April 8, 2012 Seriously though, I'd gladly chip in 10CAD (maybe more) a month towards hosting fees. A few more guys (3?) putting 10$ each, and we can get something decent I think. That's the premise the last server was set up under, but eventually it got to the point where I was paying for it all out of pocket, which is why it went away in the first place. Plus everybody else got tired of the game and never came back. I think Tabacco's last server was costing about 60 a month. Yep, $60 from linode.com for a machine with 1536MB of RAM (you pretty much need 1024MB for the game, plus some for the system). Unfortunately, RAM is the most expensive commodity in a VPS setup.

Orv Posted April 8, 2012 Might I suggest a Technic server if we do this again? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
