    If you're concerned about creepers, don't be. I disabled creeper blast damage to blocks when we moved to Bukkit. They can still kill you, but they won't break your stuff anymore.

    I have mixed thoughts about this but ultimately support it because it's difficult to pass the night with other players on the server.

    By the way, I have completed my monastery. All I need is a couple of stacks of wool for the walls. I guess I'll head back to my old house.
    No worries. Check the desert. Use cave view to look at the sewers. I'm building upon what I learned in my first.

    Also: Sandstone is an excellent building material, but expensive. Sewers and basements are ways I legitimately go about collecting it.

    I weighed it for a while as well, but I eventually decided that creeper damage to blocks is just annoying. The server exists to allow people to build interesting things, and unintentional destruction of those things is just a pain in the butt and doesn't really contribute to anyone's enjoyment.

    I am considering increasing the difficultly level though. We're currently set on easy, and I'm thinking that we could handle normal, which basically means that mobs would do a bit more damage and cave spiders would poison players.

    That's odd. I thought zombies only swarmed and broke down doors on hard.

    They attack doors on all difficulty levels, but they only actually break them on hard. I've never seen one actually get broken on the server.

    That's odd. I'm fairly certain I have seen that but I could be confusing it with my single-player saves. That's good to know.

    Or you can cheat, and use TinCow's sand generator. So very convenient .

    Exactly, but a little like using creative.

    Finished major construction on new town center. Finished second creeper guardian on Creeper Gate.

    I've seen a tutorial for a smooth stone generator as well, though it's not quite as useful because it requires a silk touch pickaxe... and stone isn't exactly hard to find. Still, an interesting contraption. I didn't know it was even possible to make smooth stone before I saw this.


    Members thankful for this post (2):

    I found a weird glitch. I can make a tower of diamond blocks. So in essence, I am an alchemist... Not really. I'll explain.

    In my quest to find an infinite dirt source, I made a dirt generator (which, unsurprisingly, doesn't work.). So, I was curious, and decided to see if I could generate emerald blocks with this contraption. And it worked. Except the emeralds cannot be mined, only the original one. So a faux tower of diamonds can be made.

    I could post a video to show how I did it, if you guys want me to.

    I think I know what you're talking about. After 1.3, my 3x3 doors started to 'duplicate' the stone blocks that make up the door. However, the duplication is only visible, and the blocks do not drop anything when they are broken. I'm pretty sure it's yet another 1.3 glitch.
