check first please, I'm there now

Maybe wait a few days for the inevitable patches, so you save yourself some work?

Good plan.

is that huge castle place in 2012 yours?

it's very intricate - (& cool)

I wouldn't call it a castle place (though there is one castle tower), but yeah - unless Oscar has built something, that's mine. :)

Last time I logged it, the hunger gauge was going off and it irritated me so much I left. Is that still part of the "game" on teh server now?

There's hunger in survival (2012 world), because that's the point of it.

 

I've no idea if it applies in the old semi-creative world because I haven't been back there.
Food is easy to farm though, even if it is.

I'm pretty sure hunger has been gone on the main (non-survival) world for a while now.

Ah good. I will look

That's the one thing that absolutely prevents me from playing now, too.

Yeah, I have this urge to build something. But using Minecraft for anything other than that feels like I'd have way more fun playing something else.

I think teh server is having a lie down ...

I was out and we had a bit of lightning. Turns out an old router I was using as a switch decided to crash. Should be sorted now.

I feel the same way.  I really didn't put much thought into it, but when I read what you said it clicked.  That's excatly how I feel.  I just want a big sanbox to build stuff.  If I want to fight shit I'll find a game that does it 1000 times better than minecraft.

You disappoint me. :(

I'm sorry.  But if it makes you feel any better I disappoint a lot of people.

*****  I just noticed that spell checking built into Chrome doesn't work when you use TinyMCE.  WTF is up with that?

TinyMCE probably uses an editable DIV rather than a textarea.

[insert rant about stupid browser makers and standards committees and so on]

If I wanted a big sandbox just to build stuff, I'd find a game that does it 1000000 times better than Minecraft.

I don't think I'd consider Blender a game.

Only because you've become accustomed to a very narrow definition of "game" and aren't thinking clearly.


If you treat it as such, Blender can be a game - just like balancing a broom on your toes or pulling faces at a child or throwing a frisbee for the dog - they're all games.
