GT Exclusive SMP Server (Temporary)

Hey I made a portal to the tree city in the nether. It's made outta logs. I just made it there to make things a bit more organized. So if you wanna connect it, that'd be sweet.

I just finished my community garden, so when I build a portal, I'll want that connected too. For those interested, there is an entrance behind my house and in the undercity.

Hidden/Spoiler:

You two are both moderators, do it yourselves =p

Lol I'll get to it when I can or if we're on together, fluff or I can teach you.

Alright, I connected The Tree City portal in the nether and also made a... special... portal TO the Nether from the Tree City. It's pretty legit if I do say so myself...

Grev, just let me know when the portal's built. If either you or Dohnutt (or Xav, for that matter) are interested in how to activate portals, just let me know.

NOTE TO EVERYONE: If ever you want a certain permission, such as the ability to make portals or warzones, just let me know via PM or something, we'll discuss it. I recently figured out how to give individual users permissions, so I don't have to make specific groups for you.

Thank you very much GTBEN for complete 'my' mobfarm - more like 'yours' since you did all the work!

I'll be making a slight modification for community access - So they don't have to trample through my house to get to the farm.

Thanks again!

Haha, no problem!
For everyone who doesn't know, I built a "mob farm" that kills mobs automatically and brings them to a collection depot, as per some schematics ecko posted. I actually created a second building, but I need to seriously redesign it.
Anyways, I've collected about two sets of 64 of every dropped enemy mob item (string, arrows, bones, feathers) and over 40 blocks of TNT, in a very short time period.
I had to clear out over 5,000 blocks of stone to make V1, and I used almost all of those blocks making V2, an addition to the first one. Good times.

Maybe I'll post a vid, it's a pretty awesome setup. Basically, you get to watch a mob conga line of death.

[Dohnutt]

Haha that's amazing. I'm excited to see it. Where is it?

[EDIT]
Also, with the Nether working in 1.6, how's that gonna work for us? Will it just connect to our Nether like normal or will it make a new Nether?

[Twilight_Warrior]

It'll probably make a new nether. I'm not sure how it will affect our current nether portals, but my guess is that it won't do much. Since multiverse teleports you the instant you step in the portal instead of the weird swirling delayed teleportation, I'm guessing multiverse will override normal teleportation. Then, any new nether portals you guys make will work like normal nether portals and take you to a new nether. It MIGHT break the multiverse portals because of worldname conflicts, but we'll jump that hurdle when we get to it.

Ah okay.

I feel like I'm the conservation officer of Gametoastia. I've been filling the creeper holes and I fight against floating trees.

I actually think the creeper craters aren't too bad. Just yesterday, I was assaulted by about 5 creepers just outside the community garden, and the combined craters added a really cool look in my opinion.

[Twilight_Warrior]

The southwest beach of GT NEEDS to be cleaned up, though, lol. I was gonna do that last couple times I was on and never got to it...

In regard to the whole spider issue, if it has not already been corrected, I shall attempt my suicide run later today if people want to watch me die. But I should definitely have a second person there in case a creeper chooses to flow down as soon as I get in there.

Well I don't know where the southwest beach is but I cleaned up like a ton of creeper holes in Gametoastia so they're probably gone.

Yeah, they were covered up with dirt, but I filled em back up with sand, so hi-five for teamwork!

Are all of the structures in one general spot? I try to use them as landmarks, but I still get lost :S

[Twilight_Warrior]

Weeeelllll, the dynmap still functions as a map, just not a dynamic map, you can sorta use it as a reference point.

To answer your question, the original spawn point is in Gametoastia, which would be the central-most conglomeration of buildings. The buildings are spaced pretty close together, so living quarters are kinda cramped, but there is still plenty of room to build on the edge of the city. But yes, you would know if you were near Gametoastia, it's pretty huge and you'd see lots and lots of buildings. Fluff and Dohnutt have taken liberty to conquer the world, so there are smaller towns and cities pretty far off from Gametoastia, but still count as structures that are grouped together. When in doubt, try to find a portal to the nether (I think we have approx. 26,891 portals of different shapes and sizes that do just that, so if you're near ANY civilization whatsoever, chances are you'll find one), then once you're IN the nether, step through the portal right in front of you that says "Home". It'll take you directly to GT. If you're nowhere near civilization, may God help you, because it's your own fault for getting lost and not remembering the way you came from =p (just kidding, ask a moderator to help, I'm sure they'll be more than willing).

Twilight_Warrior I was wondering if one of my friends could get on the server. His user name is Trooper446. Thanks.

[inky]

I'm near Rampant's house. I originally was going to build my house near Dohnutt's beach house, but I saw some epic structures and went on a tour trip....then got lost. Havn't seen any portals yet.

There is only one possible solution we can enact as a community. BUILD PORTALS EVERYWHERE.

[Dohnutt]

Or just ask a moderator to teleport you. Or if you don't mind losing our items, you can type in /kill in the chat.

Added.


IMPORTANT UPDATE
If you guys get griefed, I need a brief description of what happened (Things were stolen from my chest, dirt was placed all over my basement, etc) the timeframe (Happened between 12:00 AM 5/5/11 and 3:00 PM 5/6/11) and the relative coordinates (just one point: X,Y,Z, as close to the incident as possible. IE stand on top of the chest and subtract 1 from y or something. It doesn't have to be exact, so don't worry about the decimals, I just need it close enough)

TL;DR:
Griefed? Gimme a description, time, and coordinates and I can find who did it.

In regards to the mob spawner, I managed to get the spider problem fixed up. Now they won't clog up the flow of other mobs if one decides to cling for dear life
