I'm surprised that most of you build strictly online. My work/stuff is too important to me to trust to random online people. I don't want buildings destroyed or stuff taken.
edit: also, I just watched that video. Wow. You, sir, are the ultimate nerd. And I mean that with the utmost respect. That's amazing.

I was afraid of that awhile too, but then seeing all the amazing things people were building, I decided it was worth that risk. It felt lame that I was making cool things but no one was around to see it.
We have gotten some griefing, asshats, and accidents (like the great dome fire of september). But overall, most regulars are recognized and newer people logging onto the server get stalked a bit if theyre quiet.
We easily have a pool of 20 regulars who enjoy contributing to this ever expanding community. Half the fun is exploring what other artists have to offer on this server.
I'm a tad loony on my best days, but... one thing at a time, no?

I suppose I could always have a vacation home in Columbia. Once the server is up I think I might start a place. I did visit both both Columbia and Rapture over the weekend. They both were really impressive.
If ever you could win this game, halkun just did it. Bravo.
I restarted my (completely retarded in comparison to everything here lol) map after losing everything I had. Gone for a fort by the sea type thing. Just can't get the water to flow around the damn building right.
here's the first floor laid out.
And the moat I can't get right. Tried levelling the solid land under the water but nothing works
I actually have a third floor going right now.
All of this is completely pointless because THERES NO FUCKING IRON AND COAL ANYWHERE.

Do I look like the sort of man who'd go and find unsuspecting Japanese schoolgirls in short skirts and white panties and ask them if they want to see my "Cthulu Special"?
Get some iron and make iron buckets. Use it to drop off the water into the moat.
Ofcourse! Except there's no freaking iron
I've dug down into three separate caves and hit the black impenatrable stuff. Nothing.
You just have to be anal about it. I had a nice little mine I used for getting stone to build stuff. It's slowly becoming a labyrinth as I now search for diamond so I can get my obsidian.

Well, in the previous map I just climbed the highest hill I could see from my 'home' and dug down the centre of it until I 'dropped into a cave. Took a ton of ladders with me to get back out. There was a stupid amount of loot in there not to mention a monster spawner I got the jump on. Ah well, can't always mbe christmas. I'll keep on digging.
Don't forget that the maps are infinite in the horizontal plane. If you don't find what you want, saddle up and move on. Or just blow it up and start fresh.

So am I the only one who is scared of caves
Because I am constantly paranoid around caves
I feel like any moment a creeper will burst from the darkness and I'll spin around to see it and lose ten years from my life and a little color from my hair

God I freaking LOVE that creeper pic. Its so subtle and creepy.
Isy has a fort much like the one I ended up making my first home on the first map I got somewhere on. I just happened to spawn near 3 holes in a wall one of which was right out of the ocean, the other two with chests and a spawner. And now I have this fort overlooking the ocean surrounded by natural cliffs and water almost all around. I didn't notice how awesome this was till recently when I found how many monsters REALLY spawn on hard. Turns out my fort is perfectly situated so they never really get to it, or fall into water pits around it and harmlessly burn in the morning.
Unfortunately I have lost 2 massive hauls of diamond and other junk to lava pits. I think I might have given up on diamond as I have practically dug up miles of earth below where I live, and the idea of going that far away without a diamond pick seems pointless.
Anyone wanna help? It took me forever to do this. I would of posted earlier, but I had to get some sleep.
I have entirely too much time on my hands...
Alright, I am calling it. There is no way this was done by hand. No fucking way.
I am in agreement, it seems like it was generated with an application on a 3d model. The lines look like some form of wire mesh view. Still amazing non-the-less.
New map's almost done. Having a bit of trouble getting Rapture slotted in place, but it shouldn't be too much longer before I get it. :P
Sure hope MC.net is up before your done. Map is lookin great! The square is a bit unsightly under columbia, wouldnt mind helping tim make those rolling plains to break it up

It would've been actually impossible to do all of that in one night by hand. Like you could not mine and place all that within a span of 24-hours. Pretty clearly he used a 3rd party program. That doesn't make it any less impressive, or make me any less interested in getting in on that project of filling it out.

Ein heavily backups and logs his server.

COLUMBIA AND RAPTURE ARE BEING PORTED NOW. I EXPECT TO BE DONE WITH IT AROUND 10:00 PM EST. HOPE SO!
THIS IS YOUR LAST CALL TO HAVE ANYTHING YOU REALLY, HONEST TO GOD TREASURE MOVED OVER TO THE NEW MAP.
If it's something small, or you can rebuild it without losing your mind, I'm not movin' it.
...report for awesome?
Or halkun needs to seek professional help real soon

Seriously, this. Halkun, when that's finished, you should sent a link to a completed/partial video to Notch or something.
