Announcements & Events / Server maintenance 05/04/2020
Last post by 3dB - May 03, 2020, 01:40:50 AMHi All,
The server has suddenly gotten busy again probably due to the current happenings in the world. The poor server's hardware is getting on in years now and as Minecraft gets hungrier and hungrier for computing power the server becomes less and less able to handle it. To help it a little I've purchased a new CPU for the server which is the absolute fastest chip available for the socket. I will be bringing the server down for an hour or so on the evening of Monday, May 4th in order to replace the CPU. Hopefully it'll give the server a better shot at handling the increased load.
Thanks!

Announcements & Events / Bees
Last post by 3dB - February 08, 2020, 01:26:26 PMHi All,
I have enabled a mod for the server that will give all pre-existing chunks a chance to be populated with bee's nests. They should populate at roughly the same rate as new chunks would be spawned with them. This means you shouldn't have to travel to new areas to find bees. It also means you might run into bees in places you've frequented many times. Each chunk will only "roll the dice" to spawn bees once, so what you see is what you get.
NOTE: This has been disabled as of the 1.16 update. You want new bees, you gotta travel now!
Enjoy!

Announcements & Events / MC 1.15.1
Last post by 3dB - December 21, 2019, 12:50:22 AMHi All,
I decided to wait a week or so after release of this one for all the tooling to catch up before upgrading, but 1.15.1 is now live! If you want to find bees you're going to have to walk...
Minecraft 1.15 update: https://minecraft.gamepedia.com/Java_Edition_1.15
Enjoy!

Announcements & Events / Map fixed for 1.13
Last post by 3dB - April 02, 2019, 02:14:44 AMHi All,
...Or whoever is still here...
As you may know the map stopped working when we switched to 1.13. After a long wait the mapping software has FINALLY been updated to work with the 1.13 release. I've re-enabled the map and you can finally take a gander at what we've all been doing for the past 8 months.
Thanks!

General Discussion / creative build contests?
Last post by nekoKaori - August 28, 2018, 04:46:51 PMWould other people be interested in doing creative build contests? I think it could be a fun break from the normal need to survive.
I was also thinking there could be small rewards for winners.
Let me know what kinds of themes you would find interesting.

Announcements & Events / MC 1.13
Last post by 3dB - August 16, 2018, 09:11:14 PMThe main Minecratf server has been updated to version 1.13! This version represents a major overhaul in the Minecraft code base which will put the map out of commission for a while until the mapping program we use is modified to understand the new chunk format.
With the big change in the ocean biomes the map has been wiped to give us all a brand new start.
Enjoy!
