Rules for Conduct and Discussion Within this Topic:

* All discussions regarding server administration and decisions must take place at: http://www.jamieep.co.uk/forums/index.php
* Any discussion regarding the running of the server is forbidden within this thread, and will be considered in breach of the CD rules.
* Any discussion regarding your activities within the BGSF community server, any other Minecraft server or a Single-Player world is allowed within this thread.

Important Notice for all those Interested in the Server and its Status:

We are not going to ignore the community, instead we are going to create a system via which you can actually communicate with us. This will be a hierarchical council system.

Admins - These people act as a House of Lords to the decision making process; they are able to veto decisions that they would consider detrimental or negative to the health of the server, however most decisions made by the Council will be passed. They will also act as controllers of any vault system implemented, maintain the server, and have the final say in issues regarding moderating.
Wampbit
Bonemonster
Undone
Mrtankjump

Mods - TBD powers.

Council - Decision making representatives of the player-base. These members are put forward by the players to represent them, but the final decision on appointment falls on the Admins and existing council members. Except in extreme conditions, the decision of this group will determine any changes to the server.
Council Members:
To be voted on.

To see council debates refer to Jamies forums and the suggestion board in the Admin Tower.



All discussions of the above must take place at http://www.jamieep.co.uk/forums/index.php - any discussion pertaining to the issues raised here, and other server issues are not suitable for the BGSF, and shall be reported, as stated in the rules for this thread. Know that we intend to change the server for the better, how this change will manifest is still undecided, but a degree of decisive action must be taken, unlike the laissez-faire approach to administration we have gradually approached.



What is Minecraft?

Minecraft is a creative sandbox game centered around exploration and survival; exploring and gathering resources allows you to protect yourself against a variety of beasties that hunt you down during the night. The creative sandbox elements of the game fuel your want to survive and gather, which in turn allow you to build many wonderful creations. Basic fluid physics also provide interesting means of creating basic machines. The multiplayer is very similar to the single-player, just with more people.

Some new stuff is brewing over at Jamies. You all should really register over there and check it out. Have fun!

Can we get an updated map please?

I think tank made one yesterday. It was 500mb.

Im assuming that means no more map updates?

I have to work on cutting the map up, Vegetaville and a few other expeditions blew up the file size, no format will actually save from photoshop that large. Everything comes out to be like 115mb.

...sorry about that.

:cookie: for your troubles?

I've been thinking about joining the server, is the community as good in the server as it here at BGSF?

HAHAHA No.

How do I get on the whitelist again?

Minecraft name is Lomoru.

Yes, mostly cause the server is made up of only people from BGSF (and a few friends of members). The good community and all of the mods we're using ensure that there is basically no griefing at all. You should join.

edit: Also, tank, when you made the map you caught a forest fire in action. Check the northeast map, in the very left, in the middle of the huge forest.

added.




the other day while exploring I came across an area that would not load. I disconnected and relooged. I was in the middle of a forest fire and it would only load about 50 blocks in any direction. the server kept booting me because it couldn't load anything in the area. eventually i had to spawn real quick to get out of the area. later, me and skooma went back and let the area load so that the forest fire would burn itself out.

I can't connect to my server. Is Minecraft.net down?

BTW pet Wolves!!!!

Haha loving the sphinx in the desert

Yeah, I can't connect to the BGSF server either. Not sure what's up.

Those wolves seem awesome. Kinda wish they looked more like the Mo' Creatures wolves though.

It seems Minecraft.net is down, I can't even login.

Well, that would explain why I'm all alone in the server.

Saurok's on now.

I died and had a hissy fit. I would have stayed other wise.

Vivec looks great, I can't wait to get started on the interior.

Well since Minecraft's back up it would be great if I could be white listed, my username is PwnageKing.

Might be waiting awhile. I haven't seen any of the admins online much today (well in the past few hours anyway).

hi I made some skins, they are http://www.minecraftforum.net/viewtopic.php?f=27&t=124798 if you want them

I'm uploading the Share map. Since Gamemastr has opted out from his turn in the rotation, he will be pushed to the end of the list... and mrcrazy_monkey's turn is now!

Here is the link to the Share map:


Legend: On base - At bat - On Deck - In The Hole

The Gate Keeper
Antibody
Mr.E
mrcrazy_monkey
Undone
Nuck
Gamemastr

Once the bottom of the order is reached, we go back to the leadoff hitter. Also, unless anyone has any objections, the new time limit for edits (starting in the second inning) will be 48 hours from the time of receipt.

Oh, and apologies to those who dislike the baseball terminology.


I saw that thread a while back. Cool to put... er, a different name to that other name.

Wolves will be awesome!

I wonder if we can ride them like we can with pigs...




that is really something what is worth of mentioning.

Wow. I haven't seen you in ages around these parts and you pop up on the good ol MC thread?


Would you like to join the server?
