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.

Server Information
As the BGSF is the center of all good in the gaming world, we have appropriately set up a server - we started on a humble hamachi server, locally hosted, but have since risen in the world, and now have a dedicated minecraft server! You can find the details below, and if you'd like to help us keep the server running details can be found at the spawn .

Entry Requirements
To access our great and grand server you have to meet one of the following criteria - your application for the IP will be assessed individually and you shall be pmed by a moderator with the IP. This could take some time, and it is possible to be denied access.


1. You are 'Curate' forum rank or above (1 gold star) - this indicates to us that you are a member of the BGSF community, compared to a passing vagabond looking for some quick fun. As this server is aimed towards the community we do expect our members to be a part of the community.

2. You are a friend of a known player, and they have informed us that you wish to play. If you are a friend of a member we expect, by proxy, that you'll be a mature player and good fun to be around.


3. You do not have any rank on the forums, however have proven yourself to be an active member of our thread. If you've posted in our thread for a week or two, shared your projects, screenshots of your single-player obsidian factory, and generally proven yourself to be a friendly person that acts in an appropriate manner you will be allowed onto the server.

Server Details:
Before entering the server post your Minecraft username in this thread - you will be kicked/banned on sight if you do not!

I know I've missed several of you, this is because I simply don't know your MC usernames - post here/pm me and I'll update the list.

You can fly in servers you own in multiplayer? Sorry if I got that wrong I know you guys have a server I just don't know the main differences in a MP except the more that one player thing. I also heard you can spawn blocks too in MP am I right with that as well?

I can. Povuholo can also fly. Wamp, Bone and Caf can also spawn items.


Only I am all-powerful.

whats wrong wit the sky?

It didn't load all the way.

We also blew up part of My and SimpsonFly's tunnel, but only a small unimportant section. Simpson, go to where Surface Passage #2 used to be for a surprise

OUR castle...

I couldn't even find the application in the files

So we can use cartographer to make newer and newer maps of our world as we build our settlements? Or only this one time? And exactly what point on that map is the main spawn point?

I want to fly too .

I can fix that.....

So new map? Sweet. Where is the spawn point on that map?

I have no clue. I'm not helping them on the map yet. I dun have the IP!

I do plan on continuing with BlockTec on the new map though. It's going to be difficult making it pretty without using admin magic

The current one that was being worked on is made up of diamond blocks. Pretty!

I'll just have to mine like crazy for that diamond though.

All the diamond actually just looks tacky as hell bone. Go back to iron.

Haters gonna hate.

I havent been on for long but i so far can say you are all a fine bunch of people. (except jedi for blowing up the sun)

Nevermind

Im requesting the ip now then

Erm... I think it's best to wait until the mods say it's open to the public, and start accepting members.

I was under the impression we were changing maps... Not the IP address. :laugh:

Either way, I might not play as much MineCraft anymore. Got some bad news that needs taken care of and will likely give me a lot less free time. I have had a lot of fun though with all that's been going on so thank you for letting me play on the server.

One last thing of note: I'm on the players list twice Wampbit. :laugh:

But...who will greet me with "Hello, Welcome" each time I log in? :cold:

Oh, I thought we were changing IP adresses too... damn. :cryvaultboy:

Exactly
