There is an End Portal under Absolutionis' house if you want to get to the end quickly, and yeah, under Wolf's pyramid, just follow the endstone trail.
Hmm, it's now working maybe I tried to go on when it was updating... But wait, Dark manually updates it, doesn't he?
Oh well, I'll probably just go on the server this weekend, even if it's just to make new editions to the Fantasy Realm (as I think that area with the dwarves, Elves and (soon) halflings + more should be called) Hmm, maybe I'll make a high elf city (flying in mid air) just for the fun of it, in edition to the halflings, that way no burny-burny when lighting hits, as was suggested a while ago...
The map is made up of thousands of tiled images. When the map is updating it just replaces any updated sections of the world with a new "tile" image. So if you visited while it was updating, the worst you might see would be some tiles out of sync with the others.
My hosting provider has gone down a couple of times in the past, but they haven't reported any problems in the last 24 hours...
Yeah, I haven't been on in a few months since I've been busy with other games and exams.
Hopefully I'll be on a bit more in a few weeks, when I get an 8-week summer holiday.
I'm out of stuff to do around my house basically. Whenever I go to log on either no one else is or people I don't know which basically means the same thing; wander around my house and find something to do. So I haven't been on for a little bit either.
Yeah, I was building in the dwarven city and I accidently pearled into anothers house I told them, they reacted badly and told me not to go into their house.
I just looked in through the door for a while then walked in. Just trying to prove a point, I probably was wrong in doing that.
But I had reacted badly to someone treating me like I was just some petty theif.
He killed me and burned my stuff, I went back with a sword to try and reason without being auto-killed he killed me burnt my stuff and then broke my bed and kept killing me.
I said sorry at the end and gave him a diamond pick with unbreaking three.
I felt this was unjustified dark gave me a ultimatum that he would check the logs and if I was being a pest I would be banned. Or I could leave it, I chose the logs because I needed a break from minecraft.
Now I want back in. Well :/
Make of this what you will. I've not mention said player because I don't want to quarell. Just build
Ooo. I know how much of a pain it can be sometimes.
The reason I left KFPerin's server was because someone had put in a Nethertrap- I went through a portal to look around, and there was a closed room with a button- I figured it was a door, of course, so I pushed it (we needed to use redstone to allow people access to our 'restricted' areas- yeah, the server had protection mods). It dumped me into a lava pit, and I died. I respawned in the Nether, and couldn't get back out because the only portal in the area was the one that I'd come through, and they had it completely enclosed.
They were wearing power ranger skins, and refused to let me back. I made a royal pain of myself, though, using block glitching and the slight delay of placed blocks dissapearing to get myself inside (wouldn't have been able to if they hadn't let me in specifically to troll me.) and, though I wasn't able to reach the portal, I did manage to mess up their redstone a bit.
I'd personally say that half the bans are quite un-justified.
But heh, do you think we could have a sort through of the bans and just ask the community that plays whether to let them back or not?
I mean people who get banned for burning and breaking things should never come back.
People who vouch for someone who then turns should get a second chance, perhaps a no vouch rule should go into place?
I really want to just build again on a server where I vaguely know people And doesn't have a bucket load of mods stopping me from digging this dirt block because it's a admins dirt block...
Might of been more to it then if he did ban you for that. Though he did sort of give you the choice, I can imagine the logs being somewhat annoying to go through.
See, though, I do think there should be some form of pardon or forgiveness that can be applied. Often enough, the person isn't truly malicious in their actions, and the ban can teach them the lesson. There'd obviously need to be a minimum ban period- maybe a month, maybe 6, maybe a year. And you'd have to have a community consensus.
But especially for folks who were banned for vouching for someone, or possibly those who were participants in feuds.
I took the option because I needed a break, and I mean burning my stuff was a bit unjustified. It's just the way it was described as all ok to burn my stuff and break my bed.
I mean I was just joking around in my soppy way
I'm not saying mine was un-justified, just some of the rules seem a bit harsh for no apparent reason.
I would say the logs would be anoying to go through, but I don't think he even looked. Considering the actual interaction between two players is more substantial than the talking between them.
That and I was civil the entire way through.
Still it is a community server and it's not like I took anything or broke anything. I opened a door

Meh, I don't like to discuss bans in the thread as it just devolves into mudslinging, but fine:
<darkinnit> Aedificius, you have a choice
<darkinnit> you can let it go and move on, or you can demand your stuff back, I check the logs...
<darkinnit> if I find you're the one being a pest, you get banned
<darkinnit> all bans are permanent
<Aedificius> I don't care.
<Aedificius> Check the logs.
I decided to ignore your request at first because your emotions were probably running high etc, and it wouldn't have been fair to ban you whilst you were angry/not thinking straight.
But six hours later you posted on the thread still asking for it. So I did check the logs (these aren't "just chat logs") and you were repeatedly being a pest AND gloating about it. If it was just the pestering I probably would have thought twice, but it's the *repeatedly* pestering and the gloating that did it.
I've never had someone effectively ask to be banned before, but I did give you fair warning several times. :/
Dark, could you please PM my supposed gloating?
I know and kept a record of what I said, I would like to check you've even read the logs. It may sound strange but from the context your going at it from it sounds all wrong.
Trip wires were mentioned some way back, it's been out for weeks. 1.3 Has been really delayed, I think it's partially due to the ender chests and complaints from servers.
They're going to have many uses mostly for mob traps.
Considering the wire floats it shouldn't be broken by pistons going underneath, that allows for a door to be auto opened when a mob falls onto that wire. Before hand it was either always open or shut.
Another application is the obvious one of defending your house, perhaps finding the perfect range of your dispensers flaming arrors and putting the wire in that direction? Would make another good mob protections, but it doesn't one hit so mabye you'd have to activate a clock and put a limited number of arrows in it so it doesn't waste loads.
I've been testing a design for some dramatic lighting, a while back the mini painter posted a redstone thread, now I didn't use his design but I used the idea of having the lights turning on one by one down that generic long hallway in horror films, now if you make it activate a clock then you can get the eerie flickering light also, obviously this would need resseting unless your ok with a always flickering light.
Nope, the map is working perfectly for me.
Mabye the server is a UK one and your not connecting very well?
The titan is huge, I can't wait for that to be finished, but there doesn't seem to be much that's happened whilst I've been away, work on the spawners or collecting the material, either way that's going to be even more of a landmark than it currently is.
Avatar 720 wrote:Maps; I believe he means the in-game item.
I wouldn't know if they work or not, since I don't use them.
Well I can't test this for obvious reasons
Looking foward to 1.3, so many redstone builds possible with the new tripwire. Could also create a early warning system with redstone torches being turned to on when activated, perhaps with a clock mechanism (Liking my clocks as of late) to keep it on constantly, would make a good security system
High explosives near or in your property, protecting my property?
I was going for a more secretive method, what if someones just looking? I'm (If I'm allowed back in) going to just leave a chest with signs outside each door, then just ask them to put up a sign with their name. If I find the trip wire tripped and no sign I know someone's been naughty
Last time I checked the elf tree looks really good, are you expanding upwards or outwards or a mixture?
Also I noticed a large amount of creeper holes in the dirt. I would help but well yeah. Also just a suggestion but the fact there's water leading up the centre of the tree is a tad strange, perhaps moving the pool to the side would be a better move.
But it's more exposed though and it's a faff, so I can understand not moving it.
At the moment, i'm not sure what's going to happen with the elf tree, tbh.
Can't make it too much taler otherwise it would look silly (too top heavy)
So, I personaly think that a few branches reaching upwards should be made, and the houses built within them, so it looks like the tree grew up and around the houses
but, as i said, still have no idea
and then there is the fact of lightning...
still if anyone else stills wants it worked on, i'll see what I can do
The lighting is a issue, because it makes the tree look less like a tree. Redstone lamps are a good idea, just do some vertical wiring to each floor, should be easily hidden.
Or perhaps half slabbing all the floor, should be easier with the whole being able to put half slabs on top in 1.3.
Or keeping the place open and having a massive mob spawner somewhere near.
The problem with having a mob spawner nearby is just that. It needs to be massive and obtrusive. And thats counterproductive to the look of the tree. Also, redstone torches don't work as well as they should.
That and the wiring is very simple and effective.
It takes up minimal space and if redstone had more ways to place it would almost make the redudant other than for inverting the current.
I think some wood pressure plate sliding doors might be of order
I'll help with the tree, but I've got to at least finish the basic outline of the Dwarven City first. And I mean I need to get it to the point where anyone can come along and copy the design without having it get bugged.
Added another ~15 layers to the titan legs, upper sponsons are on and a few more layers and I can cap them off and start with the stumpy thighs and such.
As such, I am offering a bounty for cats
6 diamonds to bring 2 cats to the titan build site and cage them for breeding, build cage anywhere in the large field before the titan legs
1 diamond for 4 stacks of yellow wool
1 diamond for 4 stacks of orange wool
1 diamond for 4 stacks of green wool
Any donations can be deposited in the cests in the right titan foot.
I will soon need people to start decorating and enhancing the interior of the legs while I move on to build the structure of the hips and torso. Pm if interested

Anyone have a good video tutorial for double piston doors?
As in, first set of sticky pistons retract, then another set pull the first set of sticky pistons back, allowing the moving wall to be flush with the wall of the building.
Captainsparklez had one a little while back, I think, I'll see if I can find it Also, just a heads up, My friend dared me to use the mine little pony mod with a custom skin, so if I look like a chibi enderman with hair, that's why
Ugh, almost every goddamned video tutorial I see is voiced by a prepubescent twit >.< half the time filling the damn vid up with "and um" repeated ad infinitum.
Hmm, I was wrong, sparklez didn't do a tutorial...
I think I coulf figure it out
Altough the design I use consists of, what, 6 sticky pitons per side, so 12 in total
but It could only ever be 2 wide, but it could go as high as you want
Automatically Appended Next Post: Also, you could probably do that with 1 set of sticky pistons, you just need to invert the rs signal
The idea is to have a three tall, two wide section of the wall that is pulled back by the first set of pistons, and then the pistons and the blocks are pulled back by a second set which is set on a short delay or somesuch.
i tried the double piston door and it glitches too much to work properly, that being said it is easier to do a horizontal double piston door than a vertical due to a non-powered sticky piston being no longer sticky.

That inventory of red brick blocks was not fun to lose.
I've already gone over how that wasn't really my fault
Plus since a few months before the new server, I barely ever died unless a creeper took me by surprise or I ran into a horde because I was bored. Though yes, before that I died an insane amount of times.
The problem is the redstone wiring, rather than the piston placement. I can get it to work, actually-- I just need to get it to work while still being able to move beyond the doors, heh.
Ugh, I just noticed that my copy/pasting messed up the decription. Ah well.
Stage one is deactivated, the wall is flush. Stage two, the wall retracts. Stage three, the second set of pistons retracts both the wall and the first piston set.
You do realize that that type of door was one of the first things to be done when Pistons were officially added to the game, right? Haatfilms, the Yogscast, and a half-dozen other major minecraft presenters all did tutorials on them. And they're much simpler than what you're doing.
General neglect of the area has led to sheep simply getting killed by warping into walls.
Supposedly and hopefully MC1.5 is resportedly going to fix the animals-warping-into-walls bug and being able to break out of enclosed areas.
Waiting until then.

aye, I built a few for the castle defence attacker's base on the old server, much the same style as that.
also finally got on the server today and built a home in the Dwarven city. Hopfully some other time I'll do a bit of work on the hall and then maybe with the elven tree if it hasn't nosedived.
Nice, if you ever see me online you would not mind showing me around your place? thinking of hiding my door as people seem to like to walk in (dont care to much but its one of those precautions if we get another griefer)
yeah, sure I built my self an overly complicated one so that it looked awesome, although because of the space I'll have to show you the less expensive and cool but functional method I'll even give you the resources, you'll only need 2 sticky pistons a button (or lever) and less than 8 redstone
Matt.Kingsley wrote:too bad they despawned when shrike and I left the dwarven halls I've also set my house up, Imma shrikes neighbour hidden doors and passages ftw
So you've built secret tunnels and doors around your place, too? We should link them up with more secret tunnels!
to be fair, most of my passages aren't hidden, they're just more tunnels for ease of access to, say, the bottom of the ravine from that side of it, and most of the others are just free-running spots with ladders/raised areas so I can jump from one side of the ravine to the other without taking damage.
I was exploring more of the abandoned mine earlier and ran into a ravine. I got killed by several cave spiders jumping on my head, went and picked up my stuff and died via more cave spiders and a skeleton, picked it up again and barred myself in. I tried to cover up the area they were coming from, but I couldn't place blocks that high. So I'm stuck right now :(

Nah, I managed to leg it out with my life, though the second time I died I was near a lava pool.

wel that sucks, same thing happened to my pyro sword, except all my stuff got lava'd and it didn't attack me, just pushed me into lava...
Zombie apoc in the dwarven halls, at least 10, maybe more, assaulted me in the main square...
Glad my house was nearby so I could escape them, silly me not taking my sword along with me
But a note- please don't use any mined iron for tools- we're saving it up for either Fortuning (pre-smelt; not sure if that works, though) or for making into Iron Blocks/Bars. There's a Zombie grinder- use that for iron tools. Please.
You're free, of course, to use your own iron from other regions/homes, but please, we're trying to save the Dwarven iron.
Indeed, especially for farms. From the outside it looks like a 3x3x3 cube, from the inside there's thousands of chickens crammed in order, sheep by colour, cows and pigs just where ever. All of them glitching through fences and some suffocating in walls.
Was more thinking for saving space so that we can have both style and substance.
Imagine having a cobblestone generator inside one of those portals, a farm inside another, a mob spawner inside another, etc. Things too large or impractical or even just stylistically wrong to fit in a normal home or even a full fledged castle.
Depends on the size of the cobble generator though, can get them to look somewhat nice. But, I think we were thinking similar things there. Hide the ugly crap away.

You talk of saving space with 3 booths?
Why not one booth that leads to a big room with all of those things?
I would build a room in my house with several booths.
I'd put signs on each door, numbered 1 through 10, with the below rules:
1- half the doors will cause instant death.
2- The other half will give you great rewards.

I'm trying to find a spot that's unnoccupied so I can make a house and I just can't find anywhere empty. I just passed helsreach or whatever it's called and I have a feeling I'm going to be walking a bit further.
By the way, whoever made that khorne tower on the way up to it, that thing was pretty cool. Great job
The map: http://www.darkinnit.com/dakkamap will show you where there are unoccupied places, there are plenty, but it depends what you consider suitable of course.
It doesn't appear to be lagging here, but the server is in Germany, so you guys in Australia and the US may have issues from time to time just because of the distance involved.
Also when you realise how crappy our net seems to be in general. I put that down to various animals getting to the cables and devouring the technicians as they try to replace them with new ones.

Well to be honest, I am GLAD I am moving cause of those people who'd competely ignored the rules in Suburbia as well. The basements, the towers and the mazes. I like the fence maze, but just most of the stuff around there is just getting silly.
I've got a nice home base as well, far away from anyone anywhere, and with a nice large dungeon area - like 4 or 5 mobs spawners...
Only problem is that its like 3 minecraft days hike from anywhere lol. Good thing I always set up my hidden waypoints. If you find caves with beds in them, please don't destroy the bed.

Actually, if we're going to play the "I Was Here First Game", then I would be the winner of the first place title. Not that I really care. I think the Suburbia project is pretty cool.
I will be on one day when i find out how to connect my villages so that I can have several function villages. any way of building a working place? If not I will build a mob spawner. Its not ugly but very useful.
So time to build one and then you guys can check it out.
Bloodhorror wrote:Melissa, hence why i only ever watched except when my old buildings came under abuse.
What buildings? You don't have any.
You were banned. You own nothing in Dakka's minecraft server anymore.
And no one who is in Suburbia needs to put up with your complaints.
In the act of getting banned from the MC server, you gave up all rights to anything on the MC server, especially in Suburbia, where I am mayor (Darkinnit can feel free to contradict me on things outside of Suburbia if he wants). Now, I would discourage people from actively attacking you and mocking you, just because it's rude and that's not the atmosphere I want. But I also don't want them to have to put up with being antagonized, either.
Just shut up Bloodhorror, I refrained from posting names just so that people could actually have a sense of dignity and would be at least a tiny bit GOOD about the events. But you have pretty much stated to my face that you don't care about my opinions, or what I do how I do it. I accomodated you initially, even BURNING DOWN my treehouse because it was *shoddy*.
Now. I don't care. You've pretty much been so rude to me and to the other people on the dakkadakka server without even a second though. Its obvious that you are a) a troll, and b) a six year old . I am not going to sit through you bitching about how you messaged me 4 times about that maze OR your conceptions about my houses.
Ok so a couple of questions, is there a good town or something to set up shop for a while until I find a plot of land that I like? Doesn't need to be big, just large enough for a basic house to store supplies in while I prepare for my trek when I inevitably find a suitable spot.
And also, it's been ages since I've played minecraft, so forgive me if my building looks kind of plain or crummy for a while, there's a lot of new stuff I'm still figuring out.
Talking of another topic. I found a mod that accentuates redstone rarity to like a third of the normal distribution and makes it a lot harder to mine. One of my aussie friends has made a nice server (private) with a few mods on it, including the rarestone mod, and another that adds an ore slightly better than iron. Diamonds are also incredibly rare on the server.
Mr Moustaffa, our server isn't so much of a 'town' server. We're more a loose conglomoration of personal and community projects. Suburbia is about as close to a community town as you're going to get- but if you feel fantasy-y, there's a Dwarven undercity, an Elven Tree city, and a High Elven Floating city all nearby each other.
Or you could attempt to be the first person to set up shop and live primarily in the Nether. We have extensive Nether systems, but mostly use them for travel.

Am I allowed to "claim" a tract of land in the nether? I have no idea if you can farm/ craft normal things there, but it would be fun to set up a netherfort and travel tunnels to protect people using it as a quick travel system. It'd be a while before I would be ready to start a project like that though.
In the meantime, where is the dorf city and or suburbia? I may try helping them out for a bit or something in the meantime until I'm ready for my own project
Have you been to the Nether yet? You'll need to hold onto your eyes.
The only problem with living in the Nether is that you can't place down water except in Cauldrons, so no endless springs, and no wheat, melon or pumpkin farms. But you can farm mushrooms and Netherwart, and if you can figure out how to get animals there, you'd be able to farm them (with wheat grown via bonemeal)
Best way to get to the Dwarf city is to go through the Spawn Nether Portal and head towards Absolutionist's portal- there's a path then to the Dwarven city's portal.
No one lives in the Nether from memory as well. Another drawback is you can't set your spawn as beds will blow up in the Nether so I'd say try to find somewhere out of the way of the tunnels, but close to spawn so if you do die you can get back quickly.

But you have pretty much stated to my face that you don't care about my opinions, or what I do how I do it. I accomodated you initially, even BURNING DOWN my treehouse because it was *shoddy*.
Now. I don't care. You've pretty much been so rude to me and to the other people on the dakkadakka server without even a second though. Its obvious that you are a) a troll, and b) a six year old . I am not going to sit through you bitching about how you messaged me 4 times about that maze OR your conceptions about my houses.
Welcome to my ignore list, and goodnight.
I never touched your fething TreeHouse!
How dare you blame me and Lie about message i have sent you! I have sent you nothing! Hell i don't even know where your treehouse is....

In the act of getting banned from the MC server, you gave up all rights to anything on the MC server, especially in Suburbia, where I am mayor (Darkinnit can feel free to contradict me on things outside of Suburbia if he wants). Now, I would discourage people from actively attacking you and mocking you, just because it's rude and that's not the atmosphere I want. But I also don't want them to have to put up with being antagonized, either.
I haven't been complaining about people or antangonizing them either! Where the hell are you getting all this from????
Mature, so your going to lie about me burning something of yours down, tell everyone i sent you messages and go so far as to call me a Troll and then quite simply ignore me?
Well good sir, your the one who is trollin' from what i can see

Sorry to break it to ya but he did say he put you onto his ignore list, hence he can't see your posts.
Anyway in regards to MC, started playing on the server again and would like to make claim to this body of water:
Anyone know if someone has claim to the top of this ridge? It looks like no ones been around here in a long time, and I've started a house on top a few hours ago. Not sure how often the map updates, but when it does, you won't be able to miss it. It's ugly as sin, but it's mainly just the framework out of wood right now...
Should be dead center on the screen when you click the link...
Gonna make a mansion with a garden in one corner (a more traditional one-- flowers and a fountain, a nice path, etc), and the house takes up the other three spots.

I try to update the map every two days or so (although I did just update it on both Saturday and Sunday). I post an update on Twitter when the map has been updated (so as not to spam the thread here - the WWW button below links to my Twitter thingamajig).
Glad to see the map is proving useful. I'm currently testing some methods for reducing the time it takes to update the map, if I get a significant improvement I might increase the radius of the map a little further (although probably still not far enough to show your place Mel!).

Indeed, I think it's also easily considered abandoned, as there are no players near there and also no spawn locations/beds there. Unless someone claims it otherwise.
Automatically Appended Next Post: It may have been a temporary safe house for someone on their way to the jungles or mooshroom biome...
It does look like is has a mine off to the west and a farm close by as well. However like you said when you zoom all the way out people are pretty far from it.
Hmm, you mean the low dirt structure? Whoever was there hung around long enough for the crops to grow, but didn't hang around for long enough for the grass to spread to the roof of the dirt structure... :-) (unless that ledge behind it is not in contact with it)
After some faffing around by certain people due to them trying to vouch for you bloodhorror. I have taken you off ignore.
And I am not impressed. You didn't read my post. I removed that structure due to YOUR PROTESTATIONS about it. Essentially, you got snotty about it, and asked me to remove it. I did so at your request. I then requested that you help with the maze or something similar. You just ended up not caring.
I am not trolling, I am stating simply what happened from my end of the incident. Now, please treat me as an equal instead of treating me like a six year old. Because thats what it feels like you are doing.
Just as a heads up for everybody debating whether I'm on claimed land or not, if you find me in violation I have no problems moving. Haven't put too much work into the house yet, and I put a sign up that if it was someore's land to message me.
Even if that one is claimed, mellisia and nOt_u have found 3 or 4 more areas I could easily use instead, so just let me know if something is up.
In the meantime, if you're hiking that way and need a place to hide for the night, feel free to duck in my house. I eventually plan on building a small for for travelers to use and extending that road that heads left from the spawn up to my house.

Dude, you are getting me confused with SkySlahsher (tyranid Horde) i've never spoke to you about any of your buildings, neither have i made any Protestations about it.
So yeah, if you want to be treated like an equal, maybe you should get the right name first before you start bitching about me eh?
Welp, day two into leading some mooshrooms to the main land and four out of the five have died. Seems they tried to eat each other. Wouldn't be so bad if we hadn't made it out about 3k before they decided to...
I suppose it'd be too much to ask for Dark to spawn just one mooshroom to breed with this remaining one if we get it all the way back to spawn?

Nope, he will help you find them though.
I got them all the way back to the map, the grey mesa had one I gifted before I died again and lost the cows in dense forest (Because people were close enough for them to walk away)
I made 11k+ blocks, boring as hell. If dark spawns them for you, well I will cll you favourite and call him out for being a biased
Yeah, if you need a spare, just pop by the Mesa. And remember that it's not that difficult to breed them either- there's a reason cattle are transported in vast herds.
Yeh I found the wild ones, left a couple in the area since I figured you only have one in the mesa itself. Got them to about 1.2k now.
Automatically Appended Next Post: Well I got them to spawn, then a creeper just fething blew them all up.
Right after I had just finished crossing Suburbia with my final one. The other being lost in the clusterfeth of slowed ass houses around there. With their slowed open lava pits, creepers holes and ugly ass cobble walls. Not wanting to break through any of that it had added an additional hour and a half to it.
I only had one left at the time and it was not even 100 blocks from where we got puffpuff. Which would have allowed us to build them all back up then start distribution. Hell was even going to see if Dark'd make a small shack for one in the protected zone for the new people, we have a tree farm why not.
That's a good point. Might be worth waiting till 1.3 before any further Mooshroom expeditions as in 1.3 they've fixed the animals glitching through fences/walls bug.
I just made my mob spawner. I am testing it surprisingly it is not dropping as much as I planned. Not compared to skyblock where I recieved at least 4x more than i did on this version.
I should probably get on the server again, been neglecting it for the past month because of crazy ammounts of lag (still unsure how that happened, i mean sure I'm in Aus bt I've never gotten that much lag EVER), 6th Edition Rumors and Pandora Saga, great game...

I was hoping the actual picture it's self would work, but it doesn't so, link to see who I blame*
Feel free to use the top of the Mesa as a staging and breeding area, Not_U- also feel free to use the farm for wheat. I have plenty of Bonemeal too, and a skelly spawner if I ever need more.
If anyone ever needs bonemeal, there's a Skele Spawner next to my place (has a crude arrow sign above it) and I constantly shove stacks of bones in there as I get them.
I might breed some more at the Mesa then leave them there to wait for the eventual transfer when I feel like it again. Only really need to get two to spawn for convenience then breed them so they become as common place as melons did. BBB and Lol starting up a courier service that could be used to deliver them.

Was more concerned with them letting it out a la the Iron Golems of Suburbia.

Dammit, it's my job to plug things for me. Anyway, how many are left at the Mesa? n0t_u got 6 which all died... Do animals breed without the aid of people?
Automatically Appended Next Post: Finally found it and made a baby. Anvil I hope you don't mind that I temporarily fenced off a corner at the top of the mesa to prevent them from wandering below. The one that lived there I found wandering around the lava underneath.
I might come back on tonight, but I'll be giving up my space in Suburbia, where I'm currently at. The real question is do I pack everything up and make the long trip home (my home base is around x:-6000 z:-2500) or do I donate everything and just /kill myself to go to my bed there...
Nah I already logged off and don't really feel like it any more. Someone else can do it, I think I'm done trying to get them to everyone. Well everyone besides the owners of those places, they can go die in a lava bed.

Do you mind if I take two back to my house with me after i've bred them loads of them.
I wouldn't mind as long as there are some left for me to take back to my Lair...
Also, as n0t_u said, me and Lol are going to start a courier service on the server, so if you PM me with what you want delivered to where, we'll sort out a payment and take it there.
Hehe. Mesa's getting popular. And it's absolutely fine to fence off the corner. I don't really have much going on in the main chamber anyways, aside from it looking impressive.
Generally you just have to follow the rules in that little house at the corner of town, then build if there's a free plot. Just need to ask if you're going to use more than one though and to make sure it isn't already taken.
