Worldguard is working now. Still have to setup the different areas, but we are very close to opening the server to everyone now.

Figured I'd be the one to tell everyone that the server will be open for use in 24 hours! It could possibly be sooner, we'll tell you all if it happens, but don't count on it.

Testing is complete, had to make a few minor changes. Quantum can post some hints about the underground part of the city as he designed and built most of it.
Should only be literally hours away. I'm just working on some finishing touches at the moment.

Well, I can say that there are dozens of chests and treasures to be found, some which will be surprising, some which may be frustrating, and many which will be a huge payoff for the difficulty.
My biggest hint for people trying to find their way in, just look everywhere, places you've been in or around, places you haven't, because we've changed everything around - things may look exactly the same as they once did, but may have secret passages or treasure chests, as well as multiple easter eggs and jokes hidden around. We have it set up so most of the chests will restock after a certain amount of time and we also have it set up so even if somebody raids a chest during the day, a different player can come and still raid the same treasure within seconds (but players that raided it can only raid it once every period of time until its restocked.) My biggest words of advice - if you do finally find your way in to the deeper parts of the city, remember how you got in and come back when you have a friend with you. It IS possible to complete it all alone, I've tested it myself and managed to complete it multiple times during the various test trials I ran. Also, you will almost certainly die at LEAST once - whether it is from the enemy mobs you will encounter, the challenging platforming, or the ruthless traps we have set up, if you haven't died, then you haven't yet found everything that's hidden within, and I mean you will most likely even die in groups (Mark and I just did a final test of the entire design and we each died three or four times trying to make it to the end.) I won't stress this enough, but make sure you don't take a single item more than you are willing to lose. Potions of every sort may be helpful and the best armor available will be even more helpful. But again, my test runs involved nothing enchanted, diamond equipment, and no potions or buffs. And some spots may seem impossible even after countless tries, but every single spot was tested in survival mode and it is possible, just don't give up. And as a little bit of good news for people looking forward to it, there is much more planned for the server, some even beyond just what is planned beneath the city! After a little bit of time, there are quite a few other similar projects that have already started being worked on and planned, which will eventually be available to enjoy for everyone. We were really trying to make this world a bit more dynamic and to feel a little bit less like you always knew what to expect. It all has a story and various themes, all of which will hopefully give a different experience for every player with their different interests in the game's content. Anyway. See everyone on the server tomorrow! Last edited by QuantumError; 4th August 2012 at 01:47 PM.

i know the answer is probably no, but does anyone have a copy of the old "minecraft.therwp.com" map? i would love to take a stroll through that again, just for nostalgia.

Alright everyone, the server should be going live in roughly about 30 minutes!
We just want to clarify the rules real quick, however, since it's probably been a while since some of you have seen them. Rule 1 - Be polite to other players. This means don't go out of your way to create trouble for them, try not to be mean when you talk them, and even if you don't like what they have built or are building, try not to put them down about it. Rule 2 - No swearing, no griefing, no stealing. This server is a PG (sometimes PG-13 at the most) environment, so even though we have chat censors in place, please respect the atmosphere we're trying to create. And if you're just going to be stubborn, go ahead, swear, I dare you...You won't be happy after what happens. Also, don't add blocks to player's builds/remove blocks/create messes, as this just takes away from the fun atmosphere. Lastly, if you steal, even if it is just a joke, it will get you banned in a heartbeat once we find out who you are, which we will. Rule 3 - No X-Ray hacks This is pretty self explanatory in itself. There are plugins running 24/7 on the server that help the admin group detect when a player's mining habits seem to be out of the ordinary, or they have just a bit too much "luck". X-Raying is cheating, it takes away the fair advantage from other players, and you will be perma-banned on your first offense when we catch you doing it, so my advice is just keep it out of mind. Rule 4 - There is no rule 4 Other than maybe...all hail Mark. But really... Rule 5 - Don't ask for free stuff It's one thing if somebody gives you free stuff out of the goodness of your heart, or even if an admin or mod feels that a project you are working on will benefit the entire server community, then we may assist, but even then, do not count on free handouts, especially do not ask for them. Rule 6 - Use common sense Most of us on here are likely able to live up to the normal social expectations of any congregated environment, so we expect all users, no matter who you are, to be able to fill in the blanks when an admin or mod is not handy to answer questions, just do what seems to be the most ethical response. This shouldn't be a hard one to follow, but we hope everyone can make this a fun environment and can get along for the forseeable future! Also and lastly, if you have any concerns or problems and an admin/mod is unable to answer or not around, in your chat command prompt, type /mail markdf followed by your message and he will get back to you on your question. Looking forward to seeing everyone! It's been a long month and a half!!! Last edited by QuantumError; 5th August 2012 at 01:32 AM.
