I'm still interested

especially ~



I may finally get to complete my dome
(wonder if I can remember what I was doing)

That's what I'd like too.

 

Did anyone notice the server was down for a few days the other day? :$

 

I'm surprised it's still enough up to date for people to login :D

I'm still interested and would like to get back into it, but haven't had much time of late. Plus I'd pretty much have to start over, I can barely remember how to craft a wooden pickaxe.

I was playing almost from scratch the other day, since I lost a fuckton of diamond tools last time I played. It's actually quite fun to build your first little house again, working your way from wood to stone to iron to diamond again. Me and Keeley found one of my old shafts and continued it, finding over 50 diamonds in one day!

 

Also, I'm feeling more and more like agree with Paeter that having mobs would make it more interesting. I definitely think there should still be a 'creative area' where no mobs will spawn (or even walk into, if that's possible), but the idea of a survival multiplayer where people work together to build monster-proof dwellings and things is interesting me.

 

Also, yeah, 1.2 looks interesting. Tame cats scare away creepers which sounds fucking awesome. :D

 

 

server seems to be ok and online whenever I want to login

'jump' and 'home' has gone weird though - told me I had to wait "1 month, 4 days, 3 hours and 24 seconds before your next teleportation"

Is that time getting lower with time?

tbh, I don't know,

it's currently at "1 month 3 days 2 hours 57 minutes 31 seconds"

and now at "1 month 3 days 2 hours 54 minutes 23 seconds"

so, yes, it's going down

bit of an issue since I'm deep in a hole with no way back to the surface now - guess I'll just dig out

Hmmm. I think Im getting the itch to pay again. Ive not seen any of the new stuff.

If you could have a look to see if others online have the issue I'll look into it when I get home.

I'm definitely wanting to do a proper Survival Multiplayer still.

Is it worth doing a poll to find out what the consensus is - how many people still playing (or want to start again) who want Teh Mine to stay on peaceful vs how many want a switch to easy/normal/hard setting.

If there's an even split, and we can't do that multiple-worlds-on-one-server thing (can't remember if that was looked into?), I'm very tempted to try setting it up SMP on hard on my server.
(In theory, the new world format means it requires less memory+cpu, although I've not yet researched to see if that's the case).

Ok, so I made a poll:

msg:39382.1

Just to gauge interest - obviously it's up to Ant what Teh Mine actually does.

You can answer both questions, or either question individually, depending how you feel.

I don't mind changing it to be whatever the consensus is and sending Jon (and anyone else) the current world if he or they want it.

 

I have recently (or not so recently) lost interest in playing, maybe a change will give me a bit more interest.

As mentioned before, I would quite like to play some nice challenging SMP and starting from scratch. However, I also want to keep the world we've already created, and would want to continue creating things in it without having to worry about mobs. Dual-mapping would suit perfectly, if that's possible, or some kind of Survival area far away from the current spawn point.

I would certainly want it - thanks

In case anyone is trying to access Teh Mine now I have tried to upgrade the server to 1.2.3 and it is having problems (or taking ages) converting the worlds.

Well the conversion on the main world has started and after 2 minutes it's not even done 1% yet :|

It seems we have quite a large map.

See, I suggested trimming it again and again, but did anyone listen? Honestly. If I ran the planet, we'd be in so much better shape.

Smaller, but better.

Not really. We'd all be so screwed I'd be in the Guinness Book of Records.
