Org Minecraft Server

Bought minecraft at last, and am on this. If only I could figure out how to jump!

Spacebar. If you're joking, I'm sorry for being a gullible idiot

And, in case you didn't already know, here's the link to the minecraft wiki, which you will need for all the crafting recipes, etc.

EDIT: So I just tried to join, and I wasn't able to because I have the 1.9 pre-release. You can get the pre-release here, but if you don't want to do that, that's fine, I'll just wait until it comes out officially.

Thanks for letting us play in your server, TinCow

Several of us did some work tonight. There is now a newbie hotel with supplies and safety right outside the spawn point, with a huge ORG sign, and a lighted road all the way to Scienter's castle. It's all pretty utilitarian so far, but it'll get better.

There is only death where I spawned. Any coordinates I could follow to get there?

Sorry - I just realized that, in my minecraft noobiness, I had selected singleplayer instead of multiplayer.

[Vladimir]

Safety? My first spawn was over the water, at night! I had no idea what was going on. I also nearly blew a hole in the side of the fort.

Still, it was fun. I have some ideas for tonight.

[Vladimir]

I got tired of getting blown up on TC's server so I've been getting blown up on my own computer.

I'm really impressed with the world so far. Very fertile and diverse. There's also a little pond that acts like a tar pit. Once animals get in, they don't get out. I was going to make a stable but I think I'll just keep going back there.

[TinCow]

I've got a pretty well-stocked farm on the top of my mountain now. If anyone needs materials to get their own farm started, you are welcome to take some supplies. I have wheat seeds, melon seeds, pumpkin seeds, cactus, and sugarcane. You can find most of it in one of the chests in the Garden Shack on top of the mountain, though some might be in the food chest in my main workshop. Just don't take it all. I also have all varieties of livestock, if someone needs some for breeding purposes. If you take one, all I ask is that you breed a new baby or two while you're there.

Scienter and I also completed a railway between her place and mine. I kind of have a dream now of turning it into an Orgcraft Public Transit System, with stops at all major destinations. I think the main line could continue from Scienter's castle to Tiaexz's Pyramid, then to the noob hotel, and off to Csargo's Lighthouse. Those could all be done with a single line without making it too circuitous. We could then add separate 'spurs' going to spots which aren't quite on the way. However, this will take an absolutely enormous amount of resources. Just building the line from my place to Scienter's ate up several dozen stacks of cobblestone, a full stack of iron (maybe more), and half a stack of gold. If anyone else feels like contributing to this project, we could use resource donations.

[Vladimir]

I'd like to help with the resource gathering. I'm just playing around with construction ideas and the game in general. I added a lot of Redstone to the hotel and for fun I could do some more digging.

[Vladimir]

I'm starting to enjoy this little game. Obsidian mining takes a while but is beautiful and can make a tidy little fortress.

Seems like the server went down. Ended up distracted with other things with it on in the background. Now I can no longer find the server.

[TinCow]

Sorry about that, I'll get it back up when I get home in a few hours. The housekeeper should be there about now, so it's possible she hit the power cord or something.

Worth noting as well that Scienter and I will both be pre-loading Skyrim tonight, so there might be a bit of lag if Steam eats up too much of the bandwidth.

It wasn't a server problem, my router lost connection for some reason. I've reset it and my connection appears to be working again, so the server should be reachable again.

NOTE: I just realized that my home IP address has changed. The new IP for the server is 74.96.163.86

For those of you not busy slaying dragons, above is a link to my most recent Minecraft save file. I'm dedicating my work to Tincow and all the others that helped get me involved in the game. It should spawn you at X -272, Z 442.5. Please let me know if you experience any problems.

I wanted to spend most of my time in single player to ensure I had a copy of the file. Mostly though, I fell in love with the map. My intent is to figure out redstone circuitry as it's taking up a lot of storage space.

I encourage any comments or critiques.

[Vladimir]

Just had a look around. I'll think I'll stay in my mud hut.

I take it this project won't kick off until after Christmas/New Year's. Let me know how I can help.

[Vladimir]

We're out of cobblestone. That's kinda funny.

Once the control room/VIP lounge/skybox is laid out we can get a better idea of how we want to craft the rest; get a good idea of the scope and scale.

[Beskar]

Also Fluffly, try to explore around the explored area at least! Then we get better bearings on where we are, instead of what is occurring in Australia!

[Beskar]

I filled the furances with Cobblestone

Aye, I'll go back and fill out that ocean. Still looking for Shroom Land.

[Vladimir]

Just so everyone knows: I'm arranging the torches on a 10x10 grid making it much more dangerous. There is sufficient shadow to allow for monster spawns.

It's excellent for hunting though!

The grid dimensions are as follows:

Crafting Station (North)

X=-172	X=-172
Z=97	Z=-10
X=-83	X=-83
Z=97	Z=-10

Water (South)

Hopefully an engineer can check my math and help design and lay an outline for this thing.

Oh, and if someone would be so kind and post a picture of that map, I would appreciate it.

[TinCow]

As an FYI, I will be out of town from December 29th to January 2nd and will be unable to admin the server during that time should there be an issue.

[Beskar]

Force the server to do a /save and back it up. Might be the best idea incase something goes wrong (unlikely)

[Vladimir]

Since it seems that so few people are on the server any more I'm going to try these out:

I got a working Nether portal connected to my base.

Anyone managed to kill Ghasts yet? Or do I just run away?

Ghasts aren't too hard to kill if you use a bow and arrow. Two shots will take them down.

[Vladimir]

Disreagard. I'm an idiot. The machine is still huge though but now I think I can reduce it a little.

[Vladimir]

Bump for the New Year.

I hoped to have a good Org community game. How can we make this more appealing? Once a friend of mine gets the Xbox version I'll ask to have him added.

[Tuuvi]

So I was taking a ride one the railroad today and when I got to the stop at Csargo's lighthouse a creeper came up from behind and blew up some of the track. I tried fixing it as best I could, but I couldn't remember where all the track was supposed to go so the railroad only works one way now. I put some track in the noob hotel for whoever knows how it's supposed to work and wants to fix it. Sorry about that.

[Vladimir]

Someone may have made a ramp up to the track. Someone did the same thing previously to the highway and part of that got blown up. Not very smart.
