I'm having immense problems downloading feed the beast. I get onto everything, then when it downloads the pack after I log in, and click begin, it literally takes over my internet connection and stops downloading after about 1/5 of the download.

**Matt.Kingsley**

Purplefood, your string is @ 273x 209y in the overwold.

Could you place the goods in the chest there, too? thanks!

Also, several steps closer to fully-functioning spawn farms (at least, peat potato and reed farms) thank you to all that have donated resources so far.

**purplefood**

I have placed the 'goods' in your 'chest'.

**Matt.Kingsley**

Thank you, Purple.

The farms should be functional for the most part my the end of next weekend. At the very least the reed farm will be up and running.

Also, we have a new "player". Well, he isn't exactly a player... but he acts similar to one.

His name is Leonardo. He is a chunk loading, mining turtle and he most definitely isn't named after one of the Ninja turtles nor is this farm business making me crazy, I swear. His name may be spelt wrong if he tells you it, but he's learning...

How is it that we end up being neighbors again? No Death Star plans this time though. Or a huge wall for that matter.

Good, cause there's 4 on the Tekkit server and they like them some pizza.

I could use some help at a patch of quicksand.

**matapata98**

You stuck?

**Avatar 720**

Yup, I'll grab the co-ords if I can, but I might've sunk too far before I logged off to get help

If anyone can nuke the patch of quicksand there it'd be grand.

Not literally nuke, of course, but you get the idea.

**Dr. What**

Ok, I was just playing FtB in creative to try some stuff out (I finally got optifine installed) and decided to fool around with a portal gun.

Thinking about Portal 2, I decided to shoot the moon, not expecting anything, only to witness the destruction that followed.

Is this enabled in SMP?

**matapata98**

It will suck mobs and players in, but not blocks

**darkinnit**

Yeah, I turned off the destructive block sucking part, but left on the part that sucks mobs and players in. However, if people start using it for evil, I will disable that too. So play nice

**The Dark Apostle**

Wait what??? All I understood from this was moon, sucking and destruction!?!?!

1: Awesome architecture- this is one thing he's right about. With the cooperation of members, it'll be possible to build structures larger and more complex than is feasible on one's own.

2: Sharing of ingredients- We're probably not going to end up being a full-on Marxist commune, where everybody owns everything- however, membership means you'll at least help other members with their projects- if they need some Air Shards, or Essense of Fractum, you'll be expected to lend a hand if you have any spare.

3: Defense Organization- we'll protect our own- this includes putting together war parties to do things like hunt Ender Dragons, Whithers, Nagas, Lichz, and other nasties. Also, if you do find that you've died in a hostile area, other Accord members are obliged to escort you back to retrieve your stuff, assuming it's survived, or at least provide some basic materials to help get you back on your feet in the case of catastrophy.

4: Facilities- In each of the Lords' Demesnes, there will be full-fledged Thaumaturgic laboratories, Alchemic facilities (when EE3 is out), Enchantment Libraries (with spare Enchanted Books), farms for supplies and food, and possibly even Grinders, open to use by Accord signatories.

There will be some rules, however, if you're going to have a title or full access to the facilities

Rules:

1: No Feats of Engineering or Technical Prowess in any of the towers or fortresses- that's the Red Tower near 0,0, as well as the future 5 Lord's Demesnes. No machinery, no engines, and please take off your Tech armour before entering. Don't use Nanosabers, Mining Lasers, or Jetpacks on Accord grounds. No Pipes, no Cables (possibly decorative, but most likely not). This doesn't forbid things from tech mods like IC or Redpower such as panels or ore blocks, however, which are decorative or inactive. Just no use of tech (wearing armour counts as use). All members (other than Lords, in their specific Thaumaturgic/Alchemic Demesnes) may do whatever they like in their own houses and bases- but public places are Magic Only.

2: Don't Hoard- as it says. If someone needs something, and you have some of it, be willing to give it up, knowing that they'll do the same for you. This is to discourage thievery and encourage an atmosphere of positive learning.

3: Control your Flux- Do NOT let Flux get out of hand. We will NOT be using Flux as a weapon- any instance of Flux getting bad enough that it causes actual issues is BAD, and will be dealt with accordingly- in addition, if anyone not in the Accords is fooling with Thaumcraft and causes Flux issues, the Accord members will be asked to assist in the cleanup. We have Thaumcraft because there is no longer any Taint. Don't let Flux get to a similar point.

4: Don't Attack fellow Accord Signatories- this is, of course, not in effect with mutually agreed upon duels, but in general day-to-day life, don't start nothin', and there won't be nothin'.

All these rules and conditions are of course subject to change, according to the majority opinion. However, the Accord (or Triurgiiiiiiiiii, as DarkApostle/Pimpdidley likes to call it- doesn't make much sense to me) is pretty much just there as an excuse to be all "Hur, Magic's better than Tech" and to build awesome, magic-only structures. If you don't' want to abide by the rules, well, that's alright, but it also means you can't join in. Anyone who wants the title of Lord really needs to uphold these ideals the most of all, if possible.

But yeah- we'll try to keep this as civil as possible, please.

Right now, all you need for a Lordship is to be the first to ask, and to have researched and created your Tool of Office, and learned all the ins and outs of using it. If someone wants to claim a Lordship in the future, they need to do the same, and demonstrate an equal or greater understanding of the Thaumaturgic processes and Alchemical formulae (as well as Potionmaking and Enchanting) as the current Lord; they must also pass an inspection of their workplace, showing that they don't release unnecessary Flux into the world in their area- once this has been determined, there will be a ritual duel for the tile, using the relevant Tool of Office.

I'll probably make these more purdy, and have something (a written book or sign wall) in the Red Tower, but for now, if you're interested in a Magecraft support network, look no further than the Triurgiiiiiiiirieingeiiueringe/ Mages Accord/Thaumaturgic Creed/whatever you wanna call it.

**Doctadeth**

Are you sure that was not a person?

it was oinking and had tusks and had no name over it.
It was definately a pigman. The chances of something happening like that... IS EXTREMELY RARE

It was funny. But stupid at the same time

**purplefood**

Nah it was pretty much just funny.

Not sure if implying me and my need for tin...

Given that we had a zombie pigman incursion (including more spawn camping) earlier on Sunday, I'd say it's not that rare... I think we need some anti-pigman defenses at spawn. Sentry turrets? Golems? Attack turtles?

**Optio**

The Zombie Pigmen incursion was 'accidentally' caused by a couple of players....
Well mainly me actually

For those that do want to know, the Portal Gun Mod contains a feature shown at the end of Portal 2.

SPOILER ALERT If you don't want to see the ending to Portal 2, don't click this link:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oakJcuQdF7c&feature=player_detailpage#t=60s

So I've disabled just the destructive aspect of this feature on the FTB server, but the ability to do it is still enabled... (just don't use it to kill other players).

**matapata98**

although I believe with long fall boots or quantumboots you can survive it....

**Optio**

For anyone like me who is having FPS issues, I just installed optifine and it does make an awful lot of distance. Im now using the fancy settings getting 20fps, I couldn't even get that on the fast settings normally :/

It's an automatic kill, it only warps you if you're in creative.

**Optio**

the xp farm at spawn is sorta working but it needs more spawners.
If anyone with a portalgun fancies adding them to it then please do

Also you need to stand on the cobble block at the front to collect the xp.

**4oursword**

Is it possible to move the spawners with Portalguns?

**Optio**

Thats how the two where put there in the first place I believe. Trouble is i broke the skellie one by mistake :/
