I didn't know you could revert a server to a previous state. How do you do that?
I'm interested because I'm hosting a server of my own with some friends, and our favorite game is to build a castle and then besiege it while other guys try to defend it. Reverting the server after each game would avoid having to entirely rebuild it.

Get the minecraft server script from the minecraft wiki (too lazy to google right now), one of the script options is to backup. Running that automatically (or manually) every few hours allows you to keep snapshots of the server in different states, and then just shut down the server, rename the world folder and copy the backed up snapshot folder to the world folder location before restarting and all is back up and running . Very simple.

Hey everyone, just a few comments quickly.
My house, Shivan's glasshouse with the lava, contains the Hall of the Banned, a small room dedicated to the memory of those who died so that we may continue our fine server in peace.
Also, there is a massive doorbell contraption and a leap of faith off the main entrance. If anyone messes with the doorbell, I will be a bit saddened. The leap of Fairh is where the three redstone torches represent the leap, and it is, may I say so, quite fun.
So, if anyone can PM me about my house if something happens to it (I won't be able to play MC this weekend, I'm sailing and don't have the time), that would be superb.

Well that could still be done in the existing server anyway, just create a huge set of roads, public transportation and maybe a sewer system (had a house with running water and drains once, much better than an incinerator if there's tons of wood as well as providing an easy to use tunnel system in case escape is required). Then hand out plots of land. Probably build a tower with apartments in it for the new players to stay while they're putting their places together. Problem is though it probably restricts creativity somewhat.
Though when I'm done with exams and assignments and able to log in again I'd be happy to help if everyone decides to do it.

The canal is near my fort, and was NOT underwater at all. in fact bisecting the two halves of the canal, which renders my canal useless. I may have inadvertently blocked Gooda's tunnel, but again I had warnings on this thread. So that wasn't trolling. I asked twice to either dig deeper, or unblock the canal. The glass wasn't me either.
Edit: twas Josh's house tunnel. Therefore not Gooda. I don't know anything about Gooda's tunnel.

I just figured out how to finish the Spleef arena whilst keeping as close to the game as possible and to ensure it doesn't burn down again.
Snow blocks (rather slow I know.  ), and people use wood shovels to play it. I'm mentioning it because it will still be a while before I can get the time to log back on and work on anything properly (net comes back in a week, then exams at the same time as a few assignments -.- ). But, when I can I intend to build a snow base so I'll be able to keep the arena stocked and running fine. Seems easier to do so than hunting wool all the time and if a creeper gets in there it doesn't wreck everything for ages.

nice idea.
me and laodamia have started building an unofficial dakkatown II kind of thing, but with less people.
it's inside a hill with one entrance, off the road to wolf's cabin.
each person will get this much space (length and width), with around 20 blocks of headroom.
so we know how much to mine, please post if you want an area.

Nice a one way door trap with obsidian walls. Are all the walls obsidian like a vault or just the front? Kind of obvious, but looks fun when it works.
Also count me in for the UDT2, but don't expect me too soon.
I'm currently experimenting in singleplayer in the short break I have at the moment (would come while net is capped  ) with some light sensor thing someone discovered, well after all the snow stuff (I have a tower built entirely out of snow with lava lighting and not melting so cheap alternative to white wool without the ability to burn).
Light sensor thing is kind of interesting, it involves mushrooms and flowers and using them as the sensor. Guess you could use them to make some sort of defense system. Any interested can read about it here, I haven't started working with it yet so no idea how good it is, but I guess it could let you make a time based flood gate or something.
The Seed WINNING also appears to be good, found easily 8 diamond, 20 gold and 80 something iron in about an hour and there was roughly 50 coal all above ground at my spawn point which included some light gravel rain (a decent amount of spires there), a cave already shaped like a house (just needed some windows  ), a small lava fall and a dungeon under the cave (there was an entrance to the cave with the dungeon and it was a short 30 second walk from the surface to it). Unfortunately I got killed by a bunch of spiders while hunting for string and now it won't respawn, so I have to wait for a fix for whatever error it was with the placement of the bed (had its right side against a wall).

nah. I'll just put out this warning:
If you build near the hill without my consent, I will burn the house down if I don't approve.
and after I give consent, please read the rules written inside the hill.
why am I giving permission?
Because I don't want congestion and mess.
I want people to stop building in other's faces, and no cobble monstrosities.
you will get a rough 18 square plot of land assigned by a ring of cobble, and the rules are as follows:
-keep within the boundaries. overhanging areas will be cut off if the offending player is not online to do so him/herself.
-cobble and dirt buildings are banned (with the exception of the tree farm)
sorry to sound like an overlord, but I want equality and as long as you keep within your area, I have no problems with you.

Inventory reset after a crash while I was traveling between buildings caused me to lose twenty blocks (180 ingots) of iron, a block (nine ingots) of gold, two buckets, and three stacks of logs.

I found a cave system below my fortress O'Doom, and mined it out, found a dirt wall that leads into someone's cave system (there are torches every so often), but...
It's full of creepers and other mobs, because there's an area around X (-104) Y (34) Z (-81) where you can't alter anything.
Try and put up a lantern? Poof, back in your inventory.
Same with trying to build a wall.
Try and mine the iron ore you can see on the floor? Doesn't drop anything when destroyed, then poof! the block re-appears.
The creepers can still kill you though.
Any ideas on how to stop it?
short of sealing off the entire mine section, because I found quite a useful bit nearby with lava and redstone and coal, but loadsa mobs because of the proximity to the area where you can't change anything.

I had a construction half finished around where your brandywine is from before you started brandywine. So don't you go destroying that cobble structure. I'm gonna replace that cobble with a stone floor and wooden walls and a wood slab roof whenever I get back on minecraft.

Well to be fair when we started digging brandywine hall, there was just this tiny cobblestone platform hanging out of nowhere, with sign or note. So I thought it was a project that got abandoned or something. Especially since no-one seemed to be willing to build there after three entire days.
I even tried to remove it today, but I saw your panel and I left it.  Don't wanna piss off Mel.

Yeh some of them are dumb, but there are a couple of cool ones. Usually the ones where they don't try to make it look too glitchy (the door sprite ones... >_> ) and put enough effort in it to make it look more real withing the game.
Nope you can't summon him. Hate the laughs of the miners though in that mod, at first I thought they were Herobrine. I had just found a bunch of diamond then there's a creepy laugh from behind so I turn around and there's nothing so I continue mining. Later I looked up the options for turning mobs on and off (damn hobos taking over my house) and found Herobrine was in it

I just updated to 1.5_1 a couple days ago, and... Holy crap. About every 5-10 seconds, I get a big lag spike and freeze up for anywhere from 1-3 seconds. It's almost unbearable. Setting the graphics to the absolute bare minimum does nothing for me at all, not that I should need to. I'm pretty sure my -brand new- month old PC with 6GBs of RAM and a top of the line ATI card out of the box is more than capable of handling Minecraft. Especially since it's a new world and I haven't explored beyond the first chunk yet.

Sorry that it will be an eyesore for a while, but it should look amazing once done...
Here is the look im going for.

I built something similar in another multi game. Keep in mind that you're blocking the sun for the people right below you. So try not to make it too big, or you might receive some complains.
Unless you're building it above an uninhabited piece of land, of course.

its over water, so blocking light under it isnt a problem from a mob spawning perspective... Unless someone builds under it.
Also halo, you need to stop building these eye sores and what not then telling other people to deal with them when you abandon them and they get in the way. Clean up your own mess.

I just updated to 1.5_1 a couple days ago, and... Holy crap. About every 5-10 seconds, I get a big lag spike and freeze up for anywhere from 1-3 seconds. It's almost unbearable. Setting the graphics to the absolute bare minimum does nothing for me at all, not that I should need to. I'm pretty sure my -brand new- month old PC with 6GBs of RAM and a top of the line ATI card out of the box is more than capable of handling Minecraft. Especially since it's a new world and I haven't explored beyond the first chunk yet.
It might not actually be Minecraft or your comp causing the lag, I was gettin some bad lag and frequent crashes aswell and all i done was installed the 64 bit version of Java and now it hanst crashed or lagged.
Hm. Tried installing the latest version of Java 64. Nothing different. Still this intolerable lag, no matter what the settings are. And I'm not playing it on the browser client. I have the downloaded version.
As an aside, has anyone else ever had their Java settings menu look all cloudy? Like you're looking at it through frosted glass?

On my new world I have tiny flat piece of land in the middle of a lake/ocean. My plan is to make a giant treehouse which will be almost entirely of leaves. The floors, walls, ceiling and staircases are to be made of leaves, it's gonna be a bit tricky.
I'm also going to require a lot of bonemeal but i'm crap at fighting so some tips on how to fight skeletons would be apreciated.

Hum, I just burned down my house. I had just crafted a lighter (was planning to craft a nether portal) and accidentally set fire to a wood wall in my house. @ shrike and nick: Brandywine hall is perfectly fine. The only thing that burned down was my fortified manor. Both your houses are fine. Can we pleeaaaase revert the server? It happened at 18:35. No-one had been on the server but me for quite some time. So is it possible to revert the server of like an hour or so? My house was pretty big, and I lost a good deal of objects and resources too. Pleeeaaaase.

Near the pig farm and ghostys haunted tower, and nicks treehouse.

Above the surface, so as not to destroy the water blocks and necessitate obnoxious repairs. It simplifies the process considerably, since it's easier to make a dome outside of water than in it, and easier to cover something with glass underwater than try to build a freestanding structure of it and drain it later.
It would be something like:
.Sand dome.
Dirt platform
~~Water~~
~~Water~~
~~Water~~
Remove the dirt when it's done, and you get:
~~Water~~
~~Water~~
.Sand dome.
Then, it's a simple mater to cover it with glass:
~~Water~~
/Glass dome\
.Sand dome.
Then just remove the sand, and you're done.
~~Water~~
/Glass dome\

Hi all.
I inform everyone that I have claimed a piece of land of my own to build my new house which will become my primary residence.
It is in a prime location, facing the sea, on an escarpment of land right next to the road between wolf's house and Brandywine Hall.
I have covered the area I claim as my own with torches and signs saying "property of frenchyvinnie". I left a few guard dogs on my terrain, and anyone I find mining or building there will get a sword in the face.
Construction will begin soon, you are all welcome to come and visit my house once it is finished.

Happens from time to time. It's usually because the network is too slow. When it happens, I usually wait 20 minutes and then try again.

The game just crashed and I lost 5 diamonds from a pickaxe and a sword. They are not in my inventory or anything… can I get those back from an admin?

Hey shrike, may I ask what made you want to build a tunnel from my house to your summer house?  .
I have tons of torches so you can collect the ones that you left in the chest if you want them.

Yep, theres a sign along the railway pointing out the turn to take  Its automated so just put a cart on and jump in. Feel free to check the chest whenever you like, I fill it very often and everything in it is free for taking. Just make sure to add any of the items in the water shoot into it if you don't want them so they aren't wasted.

maybe
W I I
W
for the gun,
+ 2 iron vertically for 16 bullets,
and then gun + gunpowder on top to prime it?

okay, so if you go into the sanc, go out the left door. about 5 blocks up should be a long cobble path with a railway. Follow it until the turning labelled Iffymoo's tower (I think)

if an agressive mob takes 25% health per arrow, how much should a bullet have? 50? 40?

I just spent about 30-45 minutes trying to make a strip mine, and when digging down to level 14, kept on coming across someone's mines, so I'd move back up my tunnel a bit, then dig at a different angle.
It took me 15 minutes to realise that the mine that I was digging into was mine.
On the other hand, I got 6 diamond, 14 gold and 23 iron out of it, and about 800 cobblestone, so I have plenty to finish building my tower of power with.

See this thing I'm pointing at? It used to be a brand new multi-options fridge made out of two blocks of iron. The jewel in the crown of my kitchen! But some sunova***** broke into my house and stole those two blocks of iron and replaced them by two blocks of cobblestone, adding insult to the list of his crimes!
If I ever catch the filthy rat that degraded my house, I swear that he will get my sword in his face!

The best way of detecting griefers is using a Log, or Summary of who has placed what, done what,
burnt what, placed TNT on what etc.. Can get pretty crowded, but it's the best way to find out who has placed,
say 500 TNT all over the town centre.
I was on a server who used this, (I'm sure it was a mod) caught the bastard in no time. Rolling back the server too,
was a good idea. After the guy deteriorated my Skeleton factory.

I claim rights to any of the iron, gold, lapis, and diamond, etc under the tundra area near my building, is all I said. I already have a mine down there, and am expanding it occasionally...
If you mine in the other direction you won't have any problems and can claim whatever you want.
