Hey Mel, I was thinking that the Americans could just form sort of a "Gang", so to speak. Since I am on late at night, BBL is on early in the morning, and you are on all day, what do you say we all share a ticket?

"Vote Team America, because they are the only ones running!"

And not to play the slander game, but doesn't shrike have a thing on his computer limiting his time on?

I do indeed, but I get 6 hours a day up until 10:30-ish pm, so I have long enough.

I would like to reiterate the redundancy of a special america mod if we have two active and one semi active american players if all play at times that regularly overlap with european players.

I say hold a general vote with one catagory.

sorry, I'm tired and fail to make sense of your post. are you saying we should have just one OP, or one in america and one in europe as planned, or multiple semi-OPs for america?

One op, the playerbase in america is not large enough to warrent a seperate mod IMO.

True, but what if griefing happens at teatime?

Also, I'm not on early morning, I can be on 2:15 pm and onward

Well then, I say we only have an American op because we 'over-lap'

No moderation without representation!

The Revolutionary War: Part II

Yeah, I say American mod as well.

We deserve an independent OP who is of our American blood.

Also, I have previous OP and Mod experience, having been part of many servers where I have been OP'd or made a moderator.

I've been on MC since 1.0.1 Beta, and would love the opportunity to use my previous experience as a tool to help enhance our community server.

American time zone mod would be nice.

Also I'd like to thank everyone who helped rebuild the group project to close to its previous standing in one day!

(btw we are almost out of cobble!)

If you need more, ask Gooda . Dunno where he went, but he has chestloads by the truckload bny the boatload.

This mod idea does sound like a good one, no idea who would be best for the position though.

now I have no idea what to do with the castle. :(
I'll get to adding the drawbridge.

I have just been on the server for the first time, and it looks really good.
However, Who's are the tunnles that run under my house?
It is just down the road from Melissa's house and on a hill.

I'm just asking as I almost fell into them as I was mining for resources.

Raptor - it may be the sewers.

Oh, Thanks.

Where does the giant path with the rail on it go?

I have walked along it to just past the end of the rail but it seems to go one for ever!

that woul be the road out of dakkatown.
It goes all the way to wolf's cabin at 1200x -750 z, and passes the stronghold, brandywine, vinnie's, boymac's and my houses.

Right.

Sorry about all the question, i'm just an inquisitve person.
When do people usualy go on the server?
I was on earlier, and there was no one there.

I would absolutely love to be on more often as I am reaching the interesting part of my giant tree, but the latency for me is really crazy whenever I try.

Pretty sure it is just a random issue and will resolve itself on its own though, and to whoever accidentally creeper'd some of my wall, thanks for leaving the note Its all repaired now.

raptors:
I would suggest 3 things

1. explore a bit, some of the buildings are pretty cool and will give you some inspiration, there is a portal to nether in the sancuary at 0,0,0 and portals in most attraction locations.
2. walk along the railway until you see an unclaimed area, go build on it!
3. there are a couple group projects (brandywine, dakka town) you could get permission to help with.

Well I can't currently get on, so I dunno if the server's down or it's just my internet playing up (both are equally as likely, and probably occurring simultaneously), but usually people start to come on around late afternoon/early evening.

I think the server is down, as I can't get on either.

Thanks for the advice, I may lend help to some of these projects.

How far along the rail is brandywine? I have walked to the end of the rail and have probably missed it.

760x 50 z.
It's the big hillwith torches and houses and stuff.

As long as Melissa and such, nominated people are okay with requests for items and having to perform countless tasks for the community; they should be okay.
I for one, am not too keen on the idea of being an Administrator/OP due to this fact, and I prefer just to help out the community.

Just be sure to vote! YOUR SERVER NEEDS YOU!

this is glitchy.
grundz, watch out.
the lava seems to be conducting through cobble to set fire to wood.
a plank on the BATTLEMENTS caught fire, for feth's sake.

That happened on my single player game. Lava set fire to most of the wood floors in my 4 story castle, while it was at leased 2 blocks away from anything flamable.

For my part...

Just cause you ask me for something doesn't mean I'd give it to you. It has to be something irreparably lost rather than a renewable resource, such as metal ores/ingots/blocks, lapis, etc. Given the abundance of lava, I consider obsidian a renewable resource-- you're gonna have to work to make your obsidian places. You can also always get more wood, and cobble isn't lacking. Red and yellow dye are both farmable now as well, meaning red, yellow, white, and green are renewable resources. Black is as well, but it's a bit harder to find, so I might be convinced there.

But aside from that, I plan on being a bit generous. Sometimes, server glitches happen, the server crashes and goes back to an old map save but keeps the current inventory save, etc, and things disappear or you die and the server restarts or some other malarkey. Not gonna give things away for free except as special events, but if you lose something irreplaceable, I'm willing to work with ya.

for my part...
I'll give pretty much what mel said, but all the renewable sources I will provide if you had it in a large amount.
I consider obsidian to be pretty annoying to get, so if you lose that I'll provide.
I will also spearhead the quest to the farlands, which will probably happen during the summer holidays.

How do we vote for the Op?

I nominate mel,

Just a little note for people on the server, my house in dakkatown caught light, and was partly ruined, but is a WIP obsidian house clad in timber.

As well, if you find a sand/dirt house in the middle of an ocean, thats my house of events (for a plan I am setting in motion sometime next month)

The quest into the farlands
I could record it and we could have a skype group chat that I could record aswell
and I could upload it to my youtube channel
I don't have skype yet but if you have the free version can you do group chats?
Any one have any Ideas or objections?
