anyone digging near my entrance inside the dam?

remember this will all be flooded once the dam is finished.
If you plan on settling here let me know. this land (the mountain with the spruce trees) its already claimed by me. I don't mind if you settle above ground, if you ask first. any underground digging is prohibited.

Just a perspective of the boundaries:

Also, any trees other than spruce will be burned down within said area. If you need wood there is a tree farm near the city.

I think that was a temporary workstation I made about a month back when I was exploring the region, and lighting up some caves to try and get more overworld spawning. If so, that hole was there to begin with, though I think I might have mined out a vein or two of coal (if you want reimbursement, let me know, and I'll get back to you on that once I get back to pandora in a week or so). Flooding it is fine.

I doubt it was you. I found out who it was. but If you dug around the caves in the mountains it's totally fine. just keep it at minimal. I have something planed under the dam/mountain. I don't need a reimbursement, if anything I have a lot of spare coal (about 1.5 double chests full). I need to stop by the big *furnace thing* and donate some of it.

I would be up for playing, I'm weirdscott on the server.

Has waterworld been entirely abandoned? when I was on the other day and at my base under the ocean kind of near there I saw no one in the area.

put it this way; water world is an unfinished server project. unless everyone else already gave up on it. I will eventually go back and work on it some more. that is a perfect area for an xp mob farm.

Camera players will be needed, and will get creative mode permissions. This means if you want to play, you cannot also camera with the same username.
Commentators will also be needed, but we can have the players work on that after it is finished and edited.

I'm willing to be a camera player, or at least a spectator, because I don't think I can do combat very well.

[CombustibleLemons]

We need to do this.

Indeed, we have literally been talking about this for the past 2 pages.

What are the rules? I think I want to play.

By camera player I assume you mean people to film the games? If so, I'd like to do that. While I'd prefer to be a camera player, if you end up needing more people to be tributes I'll happily switch to that role.

[eculc]

it sounds like it could be interesting...as long as it doesn't turn into a clusterfuck of lava-spawning and mob-spawning by the cameras like it did in that series.

[Steax]

Also, apologies about redirecting the pandora rail. I was going to get around to fix that (by adding a parallel path), but never got around to it. I've fixed it now.

[SurgicalSteel]

Agreed. There should be limits to how much sponsors can interfere. Hell, if we wanted to make it more like the book we could have two levels of non-player players: sponsors who are are only allowed to give out certain kinds of items every so often (so, not raining apples or beef) and game makers who can toss a little lava or mobs here or there if things get boring, or as corralling measure.

[MrMonkey]

[...], but not having a stronghold/END portal really sucks (and I just don't feel like completing monkeys quest that opens the END portal which is located at spawn). Though there is another hidden END portal. I'll log in briefly tonight, check out some of the new structures and my valuables. Hopefully I haven't been griefed.

It has to be at spawn though . It doesn't synchronize properly with the End otherwise... unless you like falling into voids.
I think I'll make a simpler puzzle at pandora soon though.

Redstone torches: It sounds like the old bug when you used settime when the torch was in some sort of clock. Supposedly, it was fixed in 1.8...

[walkerm930]

I'll play in the Survival Games, it looks like a good time.

If it's sometime in the next 2 weeks, I'll join. If not, I probably can't due to summer job stuff.

[Vieto]

Yeah, summer jobs are certainly a factor. Sunday afternoon has the highest probability of working for me.

[halgdp]

I think I'm in for that survival game, want to try it out with 1 hand and 1 foot =P.
If it's the next week I can't participate.

[jestingrabbit]

wtf?

[Steax]

... Where is that?

[jestingrabbit]

Under the cathedral... ish? I guess?

Its near a pretty hugely open set of caverns near bedrock around there.

Coords for the first shot are about x = -16437, y = 12.6, z = -7781.

edit: I was right, that aligns it very closely with the cathedral.

[Roosevelt]

I swear it wasn't me this time.

[Kain]

Ah, you found my base! Welcome, welcome. When i realized where those caves went, I just HAD to make something

Oh, I think I may have mentioned something vague about it in the forum a while back. In any case, i hope you didnt obsidianize the lava antechamber. That place looks awesome, in my opinion, though on really needs a fireproof potion around there.

As for the undercathedral itself, that is supposed to be a blaze face. It kinda failed...

[cephalopod9]

Oh, right, for the Survival Games: my name is BrachioCyborg

Are you allowed to collect and use blocks that break naturally? Is creeper damage fair game? Can you break grass?

[Vieto]

I should probably mention that my Minecraft name is Cazador0.

[Magnanimous]

Would anyone care if I installed a redstone lighting system in the Pandora sewers? The old ones, I mean, that are overflowing with monsters. It's a little annoying to always hear monsters growling when I'm walking around a peaceful city...

I was hoping it was a secret burial ground for ancient pigsy gods. boo. =(

Sure, I don't see why not.

[jestingrabbit]

Kinda half and half... sorry.

[Kain]

Eh, no worries. My primary goal was achieved, in any event.

[wam]

I think the underground vault im builidng has impacted someones mines. My vault is the obsidian and redstone half built thing.

The mines lead to the giant square open mine, any claims?

[SurgicalSteel]

I had a largish squarish mine in the old country. Are you on Pandora or somewhere else?

[wam]

sorry should have said pandora.

That was me, I wandered into your space, realised that it was someone elses, briefly pondered your incomplete redstone, and left. I expect I'll never visit again.

In fact, I'm abandoning that branch mine, or any similar program in the city area. I was initially doing so for the purpose of forcing monster spawning into intentionally unlit areas, that purpose is largely served now.

Ok I will keep building, its an underground obsidian vault with a combination lock if your interested. Theres a smaller test one built out of stone at the top of the stairs if you want to have a look. Also you should really build saftey rails! I very nearly fell to my death with all my obsidian.

[Kain]

Safety rails? We don't need no safety rails!
You should have seen the old nether path out to the 1.8 lands

[blalobw]

I intend to fence off the partially flooded village (Near Jestingrabbit's house) to protect them from zombies. There will be plenty or fence gates and stiles of course, as this is not meant as any sort of confinement camp. After that I'll build a underground iron golem mobivator to siphon extra ones to the pandora city center.

Anyway, if you've got land claims near that village please mark the border with a few fenceposts. I'll take down whatever shelters are already built outside those borders.

Welcome to visit my House and Bedrock Museum south of Pandora! Feel free to put down signs saying what I can improve and add to my home.

Hey the game glitched me out of my vault and when I returned it was aboslutely full of mobs which then killed me, by the time I had got back all my stuff had gone. I blame JRs mine network its connected to.

But would it be possible to get 2-3 stacks of obisidian froma mod? Everything else I had I can easily do without but I really don't want to have to mine more obsidian than I need.

Yes. Check your pm for details. B^)

[jestingrabbit]

Wha? I spam torches like they're going out of style. [I just thought about this a bit more carefully and have closed up some corridors that might have caused problems.]

The work whoever put into the netherside of pandora looks pretty good, so thanks for that.

[halgdp]

Steax, would you mind if I helped building your sky city. I got nothing to do and don't know what to do.

Thing is, I already have a blueprint for the general layout (which will include a community free-building half, naturally). But I won't be able to come online till next week or so. Maybe help on the university or city hall first?
