As most of you know, I do conventions often.  How would we all feel about me handing out flyers for our server?

Old maps are here and will be for a while.  Grab them while you can!

See the above video.  This would take care of some of the desired custom crafting.  IE, full slabs that are otherwise unobtainable.  Also, the sleep issue that has been discussed.

There are a number of separate data packs and they would not all have to be installed.  Thoughts?  They are just minor tweaks, nothing game changing.

Would someone be kind enough to craft us an official imgurcraft flag?

Thanks!

Since spawn town is filling up we have opened up "South Spawn".  New shops are welcome to be built on the south side!

Community / Custom Crafting!
August 06, 2018, 12:01:02 pm
We now have the option of custom crafting.  It was enabled on the server for a few hours last night and reception was generally positive.  Though, not entirely.

The main thing I'd like to do is make things that are otherwise very, very difficult to find craftable.  Examples,  Totem of undying, horse armor and the like.  As the map gets older and specific loots are found they will never be replenished.  Adding custom crafting of a few specific items so they can be enjoyed by other players later on in the game.

The key is to make them expensive so there isn't an unlimited supply.  Or, at least, not an easy unlimited supply.

Anyway, this can now be done.  The real question is, should it be, and at what price?

I'd like opinions here.

This poll will run for one week.

Yes, it's official.  Dynmap doesn't work, but ehh.  It will soon enough.

Due to Mojang taking *forever* to release the update it's been brought to my attention that it might be fun to have the end of the world party here soon and then do a reset just to change things up a bit.  Play on the temp world till the update *finally* comes out.

Comments are welcome.

Announcements / Pending server reset
March 09, 2018, 10:38:57 pm
With the pending server reset it's come to my attention that there are a lot of really amazing builds on the map that not everyone has seen.  So, in celebration of the pending server reset with 1.13 I have enabled the option for creative for all players.  Head to 0,0 on the map and you will find buttons to change your gamestate as you see fit.

Use this to explore, fly around so you can get a better view or finish builds that you may or may not have time to finish before the end.

Note that this is not permission to grief or be a dick.  Please be kind and hold a sword when in creative as it's way too easy to break blocks otherwise and screw up someone's build.

Also, when the server reset happens everyone will go back to survival as per usual.

Announcements / The path to 1.13
February 27, 2018, 12:49:44 am
As we all know, 1.13 will be out soon.  We will be upgrading here shortly after it comes out.

Give it a week or two to make sure the bugs are worked out for the most part and I can setup a test server.

The real question is map reset or not?  Water physics and other things change.  Not to mention new natural structures.

I'll be holding a vote to see what people want to do.  But, I'm leaning to a reset as I think it would be the best thing.  This is due to how it's going to break pretty much every grinder on the server.  It will also change lots of auto-farms as items now float instead of sink.  Also, the current map is about two years old.  Starting fresh is fun ;)

Please share your opinions.

Announcements / Octoberween mini-game!

That's right!

It's that time of year!  The best time of year!

In celebration I have written a mini-game that should prove to be difficult and fun.

To play, go to spawn by the Birb park.  You will find an emerald structure that leads you there.

Also, there is an amazing prize!

Enjoy!

Announcements / New test server, please join
August 07, 2017, 02:50:13 am
New hardware!  Way faster!

Server : minecraft.imgurcraft.com
Map : http://minecraft.imgurcraft.com:8123/

Note that the map is still rendering.

This is a copy of the current server that's about a week and a half old.  Nothing you do on the test server will be saved.

Please join, do stuff.  See if things work.  Report any issues here in this thread so we can track them.

If this works well enough then we will move the real server here.

Thanks!

Announcements / Server update - forum

The server the forum runs on will be updated tomorrow.  There will be a period of several hours where it will not be accessible.  Don't worry, it will come back up.

Announcements / 1.12 ready!
July 28, 2017, 01:01:50 am
So, well, yes.  We now have 1.12.  Some things are broken like new spawn.  But, this was expected.

There will be other things.  Please let me know if you have any issues.

Note that things generally seem to be working fine.  AND PARROTS!

Announcements / 1.12 server test!
June 15, 2017, 10:38:07 pm
I've got a server running 1.12!  It's running a new map, superflat.  This is for personal enjoyment and a challenge.  This is to help me play with 1.12 without breaking anything while having some fun.  This will not replace the old map as I still plan to get that ported over to the new version.

I've run into some issues with plugins as to be expected.  Still working on that.

Anyway.  Server info.

And, yes, the map works!  Join me and stress test!

Also, questions and comments are welcome as usual.

Announcements / The road to 1.12!
June 08, 2017, 03:12:29 pm
So, 12.12 is out.  That means server updates.  But we are going to give it a week or so before I actually update.  I'll also be making a full backup of the server before just to be safe.  I'll announce here when that's going to happen as there will be several hours of downtime.

Also, we are keeping the current map unless there is something serious that prevents us from doing so.

Some of us where curious as to what the distribution of the server was.

I've turned the view distance down to help with recent load issues.  Please let me know if this causes any problems.
