You're a good lad so you are, unlike that Peter. He's a bad sort, stay away from him.

If you make a go board I will come and play with you.

I'm at work right now, so can't.

And I'm on crappy 3G again - haven't even bothered trying to connect with that. :(

I will build a mighty fortress to keep him and his sort at bay.

Then when he's not around I shall expand my fortress to encompass aforesaid bay, such that I may sail a boat without fear.

I made a chess board! Wouldn't be able to do the grid on a go board though.

Oh yeah. Get proper internet you spaz.

If anyone cares, from next Wednesday afternoon the upload speed available to the server will go up to 1.5Mbps, and in mid February that will incease to 5Mbps.

 

Also, in 41 minutes, if eBay is kind, the server might be getting a new 3Ghz processor (currently a 1.8@2.2).

 

All in all this should make teh mine a lot less laggy, and hopefully will allow for Mobs to be turned back on.

 

So nobody get bored of minecraft soon please :@

 

EDIT: Also, the lass at Virgin said "Bloody hell, what do you use your broadband for? You've already downloaded over 300 GB this month :O" :'D

What was the old CPU?

Core 2 Duo 4300, and no you can't have it :C

Hahaha. Surely they're not going to let this continue?

Also I'm looking forward to seeing the UFO on today's map.

WHEN ARE YOU JOINING US ANT AND CAER?

:C

I'm waiting for a contract to sign for me to start a job, then I will be able to buy it. Said contract should be here soon, and by soon I mean however long the stupid HR department decide to take.

They've already started throttling non-WWW traffic using deep packet inspection kit :|

 

And my response was "Oh, you know. iPlayer and stuffi'mnotadirtypornfiendhonest :(( "

Fuck it, you know it's coming so buy it now. COME BUILD.

:'D

wakeupbomb on the whitelist please

 

(giggle)

I got an (annoying*) email from Virgin saying I was getting upload speed upgraded. I've not really noticed any lag it's grand that server. Thanks for running it for us lad.

 

*" Whoosh! Uploads just got even faster" Shut up you big stupid pipe.

Done! Come play, bitch!

Yay! I better get some instructions.

 

It ran like shit on my laptop so I'm on my proper PC and it seems to be running alright.

yeah, the upgrade to upload speed thing is the first stage of the upgrade to 100MB, according to the lass at Virgin.

 

I'll be getting the new router thing from VM next week too (integrated modem and router, it's like having ADSL again!) so if that was being flaky (it probably was) then that'll fix that too.

 

And then my connection will be ready to go straight to the 100MB service (10MB upload :O ) as soon as it's available in Edinburgh. Hurrah!

 

Oh, and the lag was previously when monsters and animals were on. Not sure if the lag is CPU speed, bandwidth or both. Probably both.
