Back in my day we had to sit and wait for it to become day as sleeping hadn't been invented yet and that was after they invented night.

Ha! Back in my day, god was still a young whippersnapper who always was trying to create life by using my front yard as a growing medium.

Can't wait for the next update so I can get a book a quill and make an elven library in the tree

With a bit of work, I can see this becoming a meme

Well, yes, in principle, but if we can get others to die in caves for us, all the more win

and in exchange we'll give them wood and food

Dawi, I'll also happily help out with basic stuff -- help yourself to food from my chests and farm, and give me a shout if you need anything else. There's a portal right near the entrance to my dwarven halls, too.

Also, gosh, that Iron Helm Dwarven City is amazing, and very much the kind of thing I want to create... getting there, but it'll take a while!

If anyone is able to get online now, I need some help, im getting mauled by mobs at spawn, and theres 2 creepers holes!!!!

There are VAST amounts of creeper holes around the place lol....I am amazed.

No, I meant I got creepered a bunch of times on the pathway. But it doesnt matter, daylight has come, and with it salvation!

Also, is this area claimed? If not I'd like to start making a ork village here.

damn it, just lost my diamond pick, diamond sword and bow with 64 arrows, 64 torches in a lava patch after accidently glitching into someone's basement. I was in my own basement in suburbia, doing some work on the aquarium and next thing I was in lava not even close to my basement.

And now we have Orks!

I'm wondering if I should just say screw being Dwarven and declare myself a Gnome.

When we type zzzzz the server does not make it day. So essentially everyone is facing massive amounts of mobs. Already a few people have been killed be creepers and skele's in the past couple of minutes. XD. So to help everyone maybe we should implement the z's function so everyone doesn't die and we face mass extinction as some of the minecrafter's on our server are just builders.

When I first put that "feature" on, I said it was likely to be removed if it was used too much. This is a survival server. Place torches, sleep in beds, and if you don't have a bed, then hop into the nether or indoors/underground. Alternatively, log off for 10 minutes until it is day.

The problem is when there are multiple people on and some of them never get in their beds. I have no problem with making my way to a bed to make it day again, I do it all the time in single player, but multiplayer doesn't always work that way.

Heh. When I run into a Creeper in my supposedly lit halls I don't whine. Block up!

Some of them probably don't even have beds.

The Zs spoilt them.

It's also probably worth mentioning one of the big things in the next patch is wood slabs and how they'll not only be the right colour, but they now act like wood and can burn.

About time they fixed that! The wiki and site are blocked at work, any word on if they're doing those for wood stairs too?

Will written books be able to be stored in bookcases? Or are they just designed to take up chests for now, despite coding the bookcase to become a book storage seemingly relatively simple?

I totaly agree. It was no end of hastle trying to get everyone to sleep.

Please put it back in, unless you can implement some way to reset day once one person is in a bed.

Where has this info come from, about the books?
I can't find it on the wiki.

Thanks Avatar.

Looks really cool.

I know I voiced my opinion on the z's to you Dark, but I feel the need to throw my two cents in.

To me, it goes against the entire idea of a vanilla, survival server. Sure it would be hard to get everyone to sleep all at once, but when are there more than 5 people on? Not often. And even still it's not that hard to just find something to do inside or underground for 10 minutes.

Do a Ma55ter-fett and go AFK, maybe grab a drink or something.

I have no problem with zzzzz not being in.

It's how we did it before anyway and people don't count while in the nether or the end.

Wish the new books could go into bookshelves or that we'd get proper shelves like they have been for a while in mods.


But as it is I don't think these new books are even stackable when done at the moment. I suppose it would also be nice if you could duplicate them (harder than maps even as they aren't tied to an ID in the same way, but individually). Also no word on changes to stairs by the looks of it.

I remember the times before the Z's when there were 4-5 people online and 3-4 of them wanted to sleep because they were working outside.

They all got into bed and then there was just the problem of the one guy who was either mining and so didn't have a bed, or someone had gone AFK to either farm a grinder or to get a drink ect. I remember the rage this used to cause and how pleased I was when Shrike told me about the new command dark had added.

That's probably because you are friends with the mobs...
