We’ve done it! I’ve personally collected 3 infused skulls, and Locke and I dug out a battle-Room for the wither. Now I need volunteers to summon and kill this vile creature! Locke and I are already planning to be part of this encounter, who else wants to join us?

Here Yee, Here Yee! Listen all from around, I came back to spawn with the intent of building myself up from nothing again (yes I'm fairly good at dying, just not quite good as Psion) I went to a chest to look for the goodness of wood, to rest my weary, beaten hands but much to my dismay I was unable to find anything. Not a single plank, log or even a decorative block was to be found anywhere. This sent me into a fury, having awoken 3 days later I hope you find that the chest labeled 'wood' now has around 25 stacks of logs. I would appreciate it if people looking for wood would be able to easily access it for small things, like making fucking shafts for tools. If you have a large scale project which requires wood, please don't clean out spawn. Go find a tree and breed with it until you get what you need. As well, it's like the beer fridge rule, if you take one out, put one back in, so the next bastard that comes along with a throat dry as a popcorn fart can enjoy the sweet nectar that they so desire.

I'll bitch to you guys about the cobblestone some other time.

See, this is the kind of stuff the suggestion thread was intended for. "Hardcore Knots" confirmed for next release.

Oh man, you should have heard the salt streaming off me in the discord chat. I was livid, I even took a few days to cool off before writing this post.

And here I was thinking it'd be too far out to ask about Steve coloured sheep. But I suppose looking into the 70s hippy vibe I grew up around, we've got some tree hugging ideologies that may have mutated and only recently manifested. :P

just a warning, the auto-doggo appears to have a minor design flaw: I heard a zombie snarling and a dog growling so took a careful peek inside. zombie spawned on the wooden pressure plate, and appears to have eaten the poor dogs food or something, since hes permanently hangry now. not entirely sure if zombies eat kibble or not, though, or perhaps if someone was feeding the dog meaty foods... or maybe the thing was neglected for a bit.

::edit:: scratch that, figured it out. killed the zombie and he dropped a kibble. so what happened was a zombie spawned, picked up the kibble on the pressure plate timer, never despawned because he was holding something, and so the timer never triggered the release of another kibble, starving the dog.

It spawned on the pressure plate? Is that possible? I had that that couldn’t happen. Guess i was wrong. My bad on the poor design. I thought I had prepped it for just such an occurrence.

Unrelated note: I will be playing very infrequently this week, possibly not at all til friday, just a heads up. Feel free to borrow from my base, but if you take anything make sure to pay it back. I wrote down the contents of my valuables chest just in case something happens.

It definitely can and does happen - in fact, this is how "pushplate" mob trap designs work. essentially a pressure plate spawn pad, with a redstone connection to a sticky piston two blocks above it and two blocks behind. the instant something spawns on the pad, the piston is triggered by the pressure plate and pushes the mob off to the death area.

One of, if not the, most efficient (timewise) mob trap designs, but easily the most costly of all, considering the sheer amount of redstone, redstone repeaters, and sticky pistons required. Fun to watch though!

Oh yeah! I forgot about those. See folks, this is what a three year hiatus does to your memory.

Nice! Slow and steady seems to work best with stone gens, lava lockup, inconsistent drop rates of the fluid itself and all.

Added to the whitelist, please proceed immediately from the spawn location to the automatic decoration collection machine and don't mind the blood stains.

i made a thing: weedwhacker 4000! 4 saws, 4 vines to harvest. in spawn basement. sorry gates, your chicken slaughter pen was harmed in the making.

i'm not sure if it can be improved other than with more saws: is there a way to get multiple vines growing down to hit the same saw?

vines can grow sideways, so take advantage of that?

Last night, I finally levelled the librarian and got us to the eye of ender trade! To celebrate I gathered together a handful of ender pearls and made my way to the nearest stronghold to spawn, dead east. Now we just need 6 more eyes of ender and we can open the portal to the heavens! We're gonna need to plan a date for the Ender assault, any thoughts on the topic?

dunno about other people, but i usually work late shifts on wednesdays, and friday-sunday, so best times to find me are early to late night on monday/tuesdays/thursdays.

Course, with my luck and death count, i might be better off staying far away from the fight... ;p

My experience is that the most people play at once on Friday nights, so I could put a poll up for Thursday vs Friday?

Not sure why, but the server is entirely nonresponsive. Submitted a ticket with the host, hopefully it gets resolved.

did the server go down or something? I'm getting a constant "failed to connect to server - connection timed out: connect" error. got booted while crossing a desert i think then couldnt get back on even after closing and reopening minecraft repeatedly.

I posted about it a minute before you replied psion. But yeah, the server is entirely nonresponsive. Either the server is having network issues, or is down entirely. I submitted a ticket to the host, will update as things progress.

I know it's not a btw issue, I can't access the VM whatsoever.
