MM, torches just seem stupid in a tree and all.....

I know, but we'd need 100+ glowstone, and I doubt that there is that much left

PEOPLE!!

The sELFation army are looking for glowstone donations

lol

also, while the tree has its own portal. it still isn't completed, ie, it is unsafe

I can probably try to help. Maybe donate a few jungle saplings at the very least.

I have a bunch as well if needed and while not much I have a stack of oak logs, from when I was expanding out part of the forest near me, I don't need.

I can supply you with some glowstone, and will head into the Nether to get more if you want. I need a break from gathering sand so will pitch in where possible

I'm not quite sure if we'll need jungle sapplings... wait. Do the trees automatically have vines on them? If so then yes Thanls Mel

Thank you for the logs!

The large ones at least do.

no need for me to run however so many blocks to get vines, then

Thanks evryone for your support! Keep it up and we shall have a forest city sooner than I thought!

Way, way, way sooner
Also, I just thought, jack o' lanterns instead of torches
While it won't look as good as glowstone, Storm Lord won't have to gather as much of it, only some for the Throne Room, Lore Master's Office, e.t.c. ...

Matt.Kingsley wrote:That stuff is in short supply at the moment, I'm afraid

Some people gather glowstone when others think they're afk... not nameing any names but he has two thumbs.

Under the spawn there is a nether portal, go into to it.
You now have 1 of 3 choices
Follow the signs to the museum portal, then swim/walk/sprint to -624 x, -2049 z
Do the same thing as above but exit from the music disk factory portal
Or try and find your way to the nether coords -75 x, -265 (or is it -256?) z

ok, fixed Now we begin

I dropped off a stack of glowstone and various saplings and bonemeal to help with the project

I boxed the portal on the nether side so you can get to it with out being blown to bits by ghasts. To get to the tree city head to Absolutionist portal room in the nether, then follow the tracks or take a mine cart (there are WAY too many power rails on that track in my opinion) when the power rails disappear there will be an opening on your right leading to a nether fortress, the portal room down a short hallway on the right.

Thank's Storm Lord for all your donations, I understand how hard it would have been to get all that glowstone

Thank's mondo, for finishing the box and giving everyone more detailed instructions

No problem, if you need more give me a few days notice and I'll see what I can do. There are glowstone sites I know of, I just need time to get past all the ghasts

Ok, well I'll need to ask proto if we have enough glowstone or not

We only have 1 stack.... If your going more would be appreciated storm lord

No problem, I'll see what I can do. If I had a silk touch pickaxe it would be much easier, but can never seem to get the enchantment :/

I'll try and deliver at least another 30 blocks by the end of the week

I am pleased to say that after scouting all the locations, I'm picking the mountains next to the Elf city to be the home of the Dakka Dwarves~

Glad to have some neighbours

Ok all, The current plan is too remove all the leaves with shears (then we keep them ) and finish the trunk

And finish the stair case
I guaranty you'll need a stack of dirt (should be some in a chest)

Im just trying to get the leaves gone first, and if anyone comes by can they please bring shears or iron please?
