We have to have a rollercoaster to get there though, and the Jurrassic Park theme playing on note blocks.

Or a portal...

Seems good, it's large nough that we could section it off and have each person do a section of the island

That is perfect! how did I miss that.

How far is it from land to the south?

This would be great, but very difficult.

I think it would be better if we worked on it as a combined area rather than sectioned off areas so as to have it blended better.

Also how would we work on it. Would Dark be constantly spewing out the items needed like some super butler?
I'm voting for fire to clear the existing stuff in the way. If it is an island it's fast.

I agree. Use flint and tinder to clear existing stuff and have some chests on the dock for dark to put the jungle stuff in for building with. This prevents the need for dark to be on when we are building, but still gives us access to the jungle items we need to terraform the island.

We can bring our own bones though. For undergrowth it'd probably be enough to just spam bonemeal everywhere. Maybe knock out the flowers.

I think a few of us could be trusted to be put on creative for the build.

Would make it a lot faster.

It would.

Frostoman, your horrible grammar crashed the server. SHAME on you.

I was concerned it would be a peninsula of a larger land mass, but I've checked and it is an island. It is about two "far" view distances to the next land mass at the south.

Fire is nerfed so it doesn't spread as far anymore. However, the island is a plains biome, there is nothing to burn.

This is probably the best way to do it.

It's a plains biome and as you can see on the map there is already long grass everywhere. Jungle biomes have leaf blocks everywhere at ground level (looks like sunken trees), this would be the hardest part to replicate as every leaf block would have to be manually placed.

Sadly I'm not willing to do this. Creative mode gives more than just jungle items. Any griefing done in creative mode would be much harder to trace. But that's not the only reason. It's the "a few of us". That's going to label people as trusted or untrusted, dividing the community and will cause arguments or just general wingeing :-). I'd much rather just spam so many items into chests that it's effectively creative mode until you run out of items and then you go back for more. Plus then I don't have to supervise too much.

That works too I suppose.

Sounds fair enough to me. Do we have any idea as to when 1.2 is coming out?

About a month away I'd guess.

He is on the Dakka server and doesn't use Dakka?
I don't get it...

Like that darkinnit sod.

god I hate him...

I blame shrike.

I blame shrike also.

Yeah, all these "vouched" players, coming over here, taking our usernames...

can someone gift me with the coords for the spawn mob grinder? I cant seem to find it :(

There isn't one at spawn that I'm aware of. There was before the reset, but not since 1.0.

oh, I swear someone said they were using a grinder at spawn the other day. Are there any other community mob grinders available?

EDIT: Also Dark, as I was building a part of the nether network towards the spawn the server crashed. And when I rejoined I was standing over a lava lake with nothing beneath me :( Would you be able to replace some of my lost items?

Probably the one at the titan site. There are a few around there.

Darkiinit, I just died cause of out of stream errors, I can't even play for ten minutes because of them. Can you reset me at my house with my inv what it before I died.

Nobody else is in the server, and I dunno why I keep cutting out.
