I'm guessing it's either Vic's or Zetx's in G&T, although Vic's server is unplayable now because it's really laggy in there. I'm not sure if Fort took his server down yet.
i did, gonna wait till the software is optimized some more
i made a water/boat elevator and am working on a huge waterslide on my private server
this is something i might even take pictures of

I'm sending out PMs to everyone who asked for the IP of Vic's server in this thread, and I advise others to do the same so we can speed things up a bit. The lag on Vic's server might be because the server needs a restart (every couple of hours).
Yes, the server does get screwed quite quickly now, so it seems that I will only be able to keep it up about 16 hours a day until the stability problem is fixed. It seems to have crashed for the first time tonight, I just hope no one's work was lost.

Vic what OS are you running the server on? windows?
If it was windows you could setup a seclude task to shut the server down at the end of every hour and then restart it automatically.
Not that badly Ghost, but there has been a lot of strangers and some fires. It also reached 18 people yesterday, and I am worried about having many more than that on it. Want the IP?

My future projects include a huge desert with pyramids, tombs and statues, and a sort of Venice-like flying city with channels and boat elevators everywhere, but I kinda don't want to commit to these projects until the SMP is more stable. But when I do, they will be glorious.

This is a good idea, but I can't figure out how to schedule turning the program off.

No thanks Vic. i just bought the game yesterday and want to spend some time familiarizing myself with it in single player first. Perhaps later after a stability update or something.

Nice ideas. I need to create something massive. I've been sticking to smaller projects.
I have a shameful confession to make. I was spelunking, placing a new torch every 3 blocks, and fell into a pit. A creeper was there, too, and it began to march toward me. In a moment of supreme cowardice, I paused the game and changed the difficulty to Peaceful, banishing the creeper to non-existence.
The day Notch makes it so torches don't last forever is the day I change the difficulty to Peaceful and never switch it back.
I know he plans to do that but I really think it could be an idea he turns around on due to immense unpopularity.
I think I'd be okay with it if he makes redstone torches into better sources of light. Normal torches would be a starter item, like a wooden pickaxe is, and eventually you'd graduate to redstone torches.

Notch said he plans to have oil and oil lamps would burn forever.
So I uploaded some of the better pictures of my first world
I found a large deposit of clay, so I built myself a brick hut near some natural caves with a path leading back to my island safehouse.
There was an above ground lava flow, that I replaced with a waterfall and dug out a nice lake.
Surveying my creations from the top of the watchtower in my enclosure. My sand castle safehouse is in the back center, and my lava pillar lighthouse is in the back right.
And as a preview of my second world about which I'll go into some further detail later, my double doors with a locking mechanism.
I'm quite pleased that I managed to disguise the logic gates as railings to keep symmetry.

Good. Excellent! This completely satisfies my urge not to be eternally relighting the lamps in my capital city and my desire to have an epic "Silver Chair" like escape from my ruined underground empire.
Then began the slow, weary march uphill with nothing ahead to look at but the pale lamps which went up and up and far as the eye could reach. When they looked back they could see the water spreading. All the hills of Underland were now islands, and it was only on those islands that the lamps remained. Every moment some distant light vanished. Soon there would be total darkness everywhere except on the road they were following...
"I wonder if what's his name -- Father Time -- fooded out now," said Jill. "And all those queer sleeping animals."
"I don't think we're high as that said Eustace. "Don't you remember how we had to go downhill to reach the sunless sea? I shouldn't think the water has reached Father Time's cave yet.
"That's as may be," said Puddleglum. "I'm more interested in the lamps on this road. Look a bit sickly, don't they?"
"They always did," said Jill.
"Ah," said Puddleglum. "But they're greener now."
"You don't mean to say you think they're going out?" cried Eustage.
'Well, however they work, you can't expect them to last forever, you know," replied the Marsh-wiggle. "But don't let your spirits down, Scrubb. I've got my eye on the water too, and I don't think it's rising as fast as it did."

That would be fine too. As long as we have some option for infinite light.
Oh, has anyone else seen this bug? I may have been running the persistent inventory system at the time. By the way, persistent inventory seems to glitch out the game and make monsters stop spawning in single-player mode. Just FYI.
I had begun work in Vic's server on a tower that started under water and was going to rise up above the sea. It was pretty cool but unfortunately I didn't save the IP and now I can't get back in.
So if you don't mind please send the IP my way.
EDIT: Also, i was running persistor and had a ton of iron and coal which I am willing to share.

I don't run a server, but I imagine it's a Java program as well.
Creepers are the obvious choice, but spiders and skele-archers are both frightening in their own ways.
Spiders jump around all crazy-like as they clusterfuck you to death. I often can't even switch to my sword before I die when I'm surprised by one. There are times where even when I'm going to kill one, sword out, and I still have trouble because of their rapid and unpredictable bouncing and lunging and combination of bouncing AND lunging.
But then again it's pretty chilling to hear the whoosh of arrows flying past / into you from places unseen, especially when there are multiple sources.
Pretty much everything in this game terrifies me, but I'm so addicted to ore and exploration, and cannot WAIT for massive underground expeditions in multiplayer.
I think I'm laying off the online until it's stable.
So I was exploring the absolutely massive natural cavern that the ocean pours into, It went deep and on forever! One section was full of monsters. So instead of walking/climbing all the way back, I decided to dig right up the hell out of there. It was an awesome idea that ended badly, as I dug up into the ocean. I made it to the top with a few bubbles left, but it was iced over and the current was pulling me down fast, I couldn't stay still enough to break it. At least I got to see my glass tower in the diiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiistance before choking to death.
Creepers hardly make any noise, so it's easy for them to sneak up on you and explode. Despite this, I can't help but love creepers; they're the iconic monster of Minecraft.
Fuck spiders and skeletons, though. They're hard as shit to kill.
God I really wish there were tooltips or something for the stuff in your inventory. It's such a pain in the ass trying to figure out what something is by going back and forth between the wiki and the game.

And the creative server is currently not used.

I wonder if lava can be pressurized? My new company, British Paleocoal, believes it's completely safe!

just put in a .bat file and schedule it.
and it will blend in slightly with it's surroundings, so all you see is some slight movement in the distance and one by one, the lamps go out
closer
and

You're digging along peacefully, you see a block jiggle a bit, then debris falls from it, then a snakelike creature bursts forth!

It begins!
Much bigger.
Glass floor with lava underneath, hell yes!
A look at my fort from up top.
Not pictured yet, I now have trees growing on top of the tower, and have begun building it higher again. I'm almost to the clouds!
Snowballs in peril! Action/Puzzle = Snowball's Chance E1 (it's free now!)
also he should add rope and let you attach rope to an arrow and then you can zip line on it or shimmy up it.
stick
feather
in the workbench will make 4 arrows
Yes. Yes. That would be so terrifying, yet so memorable. I'd like it if they were a very rare mob.

oh cool thanks
i am dumb and it WAS on the minepedia crafting page, when i searched "arrow" on minepedia it just redirected me to "bow" so i was confused
Agreed.
