Is anyone here going to Pax East? I will be there all 3 days if anyone wants to meet up!
I will be there all weekend, along with TheThreeMagi and YoSoyElJosh. I don't know if you remember them, they only played for maybe two weeks before quitting.
I'm getting excited. PAX is awesome.

Whoah whoah wait, there are cats now? And creepers are scared of em?
P.s. Also none of your work will matter once drunk town consumes all.
p.s.s I need a redstone technician and a organic builder to come to me and discuss the plausibility of a giant pooping butt hanging from a mountain.
(Just quoting this one for convenience)
As for drunk town - is there anything we know about it besides the approximate time it'll be created?
My only suggestions are the first building being the (glorious) bar. Or liquor store.
Oh, and every day we have a different mayor. I'm picturing the most perfect drunken mess...
Hey guys, I know i've only popped in a couple times over the last week or so, but it's because I've been trying to plan some massive reworks to my base. Right now it's something I kind of haphazardly put together. I think I've got a plan now though, so expect to see me back on in the next few days
I tried logging on to the server just now, and have been getting some awful lag (about 14 seconds between clicking on a chest and opening it), which hasn't happened before. I've tried logging in and out, and reinstalling completely, but I'm at a loss
Also, I tried the updated Freeducks and Frostheim texture packs, the water/fire textures are all screwed up for me? WHY IS EVERYTHING WRONG HERE, GUYS?
Some people are experiencing a bizarre amount of lag since the update and I'm kind of at a loss to explain it. It appears to be linked to item use in one instance - I'm not sure if yours is as well Vegemyte. I'm keeping an eye on the MC forums and bukkit but so far I haven't seen anything similar reported there. I'll let you guys know if I find something.

I've been having a similar lag issue since the server updated, but I find it goes away if I sit there for a while and let the surrounding chunks slowly load, which seems to take longer than before. After a while everything I tried 'snaps back' to normal, and its fine until I move a hundred or so feet and, presumably, more new chunks start to load.

Drinking games are needed for drunk city.
Fall off a building, you take a drink.
Every time a creeper explodes, everybody drinks.
Somebody starves to death. Everybody finish your drink.
So, if people would like to help me out in tracking down the lag problems and murdering them, it would be really useful to have the following information when you report lag:
1) Is the lag server or client based? Server based lag is gravity blocks falling very slowly and boats being slow to respond to direction changes. Client based lag is very low FPS, chat freezing or refusing to send your messages, or the game stuttering.
2) Are you running Optifine? (if you don't know if you are and you aren't using a JAR given to you by someone else, you are not running optifine)
3) Do you have Advanced OpenGL enabled under Video Settings?
4) If the lag is occasional rather than constant, where does it occur?
As many of you know a server invent including drunk community building was proposed awhile back and due to the generally positive response I decided to flesh out the idea.
The event basic concept would be a server gathering where everybody is drunk (possibly on vent) and everyone helps build one massive object(or several slightly smaller objects, ultimately its all up to what drunk group think decides at the time).The object will not be planned in advance and will not follow any theme unless drunk hive mind feels it should at the time.
The purpose of this post is to declare my serious intent on making this happen, Judging community enthusiasm, and getting information from you all on how to go about fleshing out the idea further.
What we need A name:
A catchy name for people to easily remember so far we have; B.U.I(building under the influence),Beercraft and Festival of the drunken creeper. I would really like more ideas on a name and the community to come to a consensus on which is best.
A DATE:
The Date will be very important for this even, as getting trashed and playing minecraft isn't something everyone can do at the drop of the hat, This date will be on a weekend after everyone's college lets out act so probably late april or early may. It will most likely be on a friday for those of you have church on sunday or work on monday. As with the name I'd like to hear when all of your colleges close for the summer and what time and exact date you feel is best.
A Location:
With this new patch this part should be easy. Distance is not an issue as we shall have easy transit built by the time of the event. However it needs to be nice and easy for drunk people to build around (No forests). It also needs to be far enough away from civilization that if we create a blocky abomination it will not ruin someone's skyline. I'll be on the lookout for nice areas, anyone else that has a good location PM me and i will come up with a list of possible candidate areas for the server to decide on.
Supplies:
This event won't last very long If everyone only just brings what they can carry. Someone will forget something or run out of something and then attempt to return home, next time we see them the'll be in Farlands.
During the time leading up to the event, a community staging area should be built near the location for supplies to be massed. (Your still encouraged to bring your own.)
FINAL NOTES:
You might be asking me why all this plans for a night of chaotic shenanigans? well my history of planning drunken events has lead me to the conclusion that every single boring thing must be planned out in advance for a drunken event to succeed.
Also I realize some of you either are not old enough or may just abstain from alcohol, This is fine for the event you can still come and embrace the debauchery, however this leads me to my final topic
!!DRUNK TOWN!!:
Once the event is over , we will be left with some abomination and not much else but good memories. So depending on the eventual size and attendance of the even I propose whatever is built during the event become the center of a new town called simply "Drunk Town". However unlike the event you will be required to be at least tipsy to even build in this area (shitfaced preferred) . and the mayor shall be whoever is drunkest at the time.
If you wish to help me in the organization and planning of the event send me a pm or yell at me in game FERRET OUT.
Remember 12/21/2012 when the doctor saved us all once again.
:O I can't wait! I will sk for that day off lol whenever we find out what it is. I'm thinking it should start at around....8pm PST what do you thinK? Cause for the east coast it won't be tooooo late and then the west coast won't be missing out due to work or drinking at 5pm lol.
I guess it really depends on what other people wanna do. My idea is the Aztec/Mayan temple city, which would be deep in a jungle, with stone paths and tunnels and ruins throughout. This by no means has to be a private project if other people are interested in that sort of thing to help build, that's just what I had in mind Ocelotl to be.
I do like the newer jungle better overall although that's just my opinion!
So it depends on if other people are interested in the Mayan/Aztec/Inca aesthetic or if they would rather build a different sort of jungle city separate. I'm also fine with Ocelotl being part of a larger city with different stylistic sections too, as long as the deep jungle temples are allowed to be made. Really, it's up to what everyone would like better, I don't want to exclude people!
I hope that makes sense, I'm bad at saying what I want to say.
I like the mayan theme, I love building that stuff. I might help ya out with it.

The planning, and aftermath of Drunk Town sounds pretty good to me. I'd love to be able to be a big part of this, planning and everything, if that would be possible.
I do have some questions. You have to be drinking to build in Drunk Town, so is it going to be completely community based with no permanent residents? We just can share whatever rooms available (no worries about being too drunk to find your home!) and with the rotating position of Mayor (who will need a lovely office) we won't have to worry about personal belongings too much.
Also: ...are the non-participating people on the server going to deal with our drunken chatter? Possible to have a separate channel for the people in Drunk Town to talk on? Or just assume this has been posted on the forum and leave it up to the players to decide if they want to be on during Drunk Town?
Sorry it's not a personal message like you asked Ferret! I just wanted some of these ideas to get reviewed by other people
Like, I popped my head in Ispawnbul and people were talking about level grinding and enchantments and I teleported to a giant map of the earth and read signs and only recognized like 3 names and

TNT would probably be a banned block, However as far as everything else goes, All The Building blocks, tools to alter the land, Torches to ward off creepers,wood, food etc etc

When was the last time you played? Things have changed quite a bit and aside from the admins who are constant the playerbase tends to change steadily as people burn out.

This is close to my island. I am like directly east (?) on that map. If it is decided this location is suitable I can run a branch off my underground rail out under the ocean and come above ground at the coast. So ferrying supplies would be easier before the momentous occasion.

The last time I put any serious hours in was when the map still had a border just, uh, north? of the spawn city.

Ah ok, a lot has changed since then, the big ones being potions and enchantments. Potions can be brewed using mob drops primarily from the nether while enchantments can be applied to either armor or weapons using xp you have collected from killing mobs. People built xp grinders to get high level enchantments because its takes far, far too much time to hit the level cap in the traditional way.
edit: Another note about enchantments, they are randomly applied. So you select the item you want enchanted and then are given a choice of 3 different exp levels to spend on the enchantment. If you dont want to spend any of those amounts then you can take the item out and put it back in to get another 3 choices. After you find the right amount of exp you want to spend you select that option and it enchants your weapon with at least 1 random enchantment, possibly more.

Working on a "small broken boat" design. But I never design anything. This be my first attempt. Thoughs?
can Drunk Town have a building devoted to drunk fathers that beat their wife and/or child?
can it have a giant bloody car in the middle of the city celebrating all of the people killed by awesome drunk drivers?
is someone going to build a tall building (to height limit) and call it Date Rape Hotel?

After a while everything I tried 'snaps back' to normal, and its fine until I move a hundred or so feet and, presumably, more new chunks start to load.
EDIT: Or I could be entirely wrong.
Thank you!
The lag has dropped back down now to a normal-ish level, for some odd reason.
Whoever the drunkest person online is, that is the mayor. I shall post my mission statement in a couple of hours when i'm done with my daily tasks
