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


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 maintain the server and have the final say in issues regarding moderating.
Wampbit
Bonemonster
Undone
Mrtankjump

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:
Simpsonfly
LEGOGOD
Gamemastr
Skoomaholic
Povuhulo

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. Right now neither enemies nor damage function, however an update fixing this will be arriving shortly.

Update on the...update.
We were aiming at releasing 1.5 this week, but no. There’s been significant feature creep (we’ve got powered rails now, and lightning hitting a pig will turn it into a zombie pigman), so we don’t have time to get it out this week.

But next week!

Just started playing tonight. Have to say I am enjoying it. When I saw videos of the game it looked very meh to me. Then I started watching videos uploaded by this Stan Burdman guy, and they got me in the mood to try the game. Simple at face value, very fun when you get into the groove of things and discover everything you can do. Runs weird on my computer though. When I initially tried the free version a while back, the game couldn't run at more than 3 fps, no matter the settings. Tried it again, and as long as the distance is put to small everything is good.

I'll be honest, I haven't checked it since you finished with it. I know some projects have occurred since but I have no clue as to their nature. Ah well - my turn will roll around again in about a week and a half, so I'll see then. And by then I'll probably have some schweet 1.5 action, too.

Also, hopefully some dogs. :D
I'll try to keep track of it since you're busy with the werewolf hosting stuff. I think fishy posted something about it so I'll shoot her a PM, if you don't mind.

Oh, I know the schedule, and I know Ant's keeping loose track of it too. Gamemastr is set to upload it for fishy at some point tomorrow - and then we go to the shorter, 48 hour rotations.

Is there a map of the multiplayer server? I could use one to plan out a new project of mine. Though I think Cartograph would crash on something this big.

Anyone know how the powered rails might work?

Seperate recipe or redstone path along side it?
