Poor Accousticlemmon.

He gets killed by a creeper while exploring Ark's little manor; all his items fall out and scatter among the floor of the gatehouse.

He warps to Arkyoto, then runs all the way back to his body.

And...

...AM or PM?

You aren't even in the server log so I have no idea what you're talking about.

EDIT: This is silly, it's not possible for you to be banned. There is only one person on the ban list and it isn't you. You were either kicked or you're pulling my leg.

How does that leg feel?

You don't actually have to quote it. Just press Quote to see the IP.

OP, can we please make that clear, and everyone else, that people don't have to actually quote the post in order to get into the server. They just have to press Quote to view it.

Why is your family blocking it?

i have no idea. Getting it unblocked isn't do-able though.
Ask them about it? I'm willing to bet it's not intentional. Otherwise you could try a tunneling service, although you won't really be able to play multiplayer.

I could send you a giftcode from their site, but you'll still be pulling the exe from them..
Why is it not doable? No one in your family can add you or the domain to a content filter of whatever is blocking it?
What's the error you get when your browser fails to load minecraft.net?

The browser just times out whenever anything with minecraft is written in a search.

Error 324 (net::ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE): The server closed the connection without sending any data.

Thanks for the giftcode but its ok ill find a way to buy it my self.

Hmmm....Like I said, why can't you ask them about it again?

Is Minecraft explicitly blocked or what? (As in, you can get to all the porn sites in the world, but god forbid Minecraft)
 
Just dropped by Neocraft.

Really awesome stuff guys. Super intimidating for a single player noob like me. I don't really know where to start.

Quick question. How do you return to the spawn? I teleported somewhere and now I cant get back. ):

My username in MineCraft is Gouglas.

Just type /spawn and also type /warp if you wanna see a list of all the places where you can warp :)

Unfortunately, the only way you are going to be able to pay for the game is through Notches web site. If you are correct and your router is configured to block minecraft, CHANCES are it is set up only to block HTTP, and wont block minecraft from connecting to the update and authentication servers. You may be able to simply use another PC outside of your house, sign up for an account and pay for the game, then toss the .exe on a CD and run it on your home PC. No promises though, it depends on if its actually being blocked and if so HOW it is being blocked.

I cant help but agree with everyone else though, unless there is some extreme prejudice against gaming in your household, I cant see why blocking minecraft would be anything but accidental.

Ah shit. That's my old giant underwater base project.
how do you build an underwater base? do you like dive down and stack dirt until you have an island the size of what you want and then dig downwards and build your base. and then remove the barrier? doesn't the water get all fucked up then with a ton of currents?

might be cool to build a large underwater rapture city.

Like I said, I used world edit to remove the water and to carve that giant hole. Which is mostly the reason I felt bad and unmotivated about it.

Was planning that on Exano's old server but didn't bother to finish it.

I have been trying to join Ark's server but keep failing.
I have the latest version of the game 1.7.3 can it be the reason?

Just keep trying and you should eventually get on, the Minecraft.net servers might be playing up.

Once you actually get on, check out each of the /warp locations first :)

Pretty cool to see a lot of new guys showing up. Humble Bundle I'm assuming?

I expect so, hopefully a bunch of guys will stick around :) There's been quite a few MC-GAF 'oldies' that have showed up too.

I would stick around but i am done with building and stuff in ex servers. All i want is party expeditions! Journey to the unknown lands and cave system for the new CAVETOWNS and OCEANTOWNS!

Finally starting on my little project. If you want to keep an eye on my progress, just warp to Library. Please don't destroy my work though.

I've gotten in on this game because of the Humble indie bundle keys, and I have to say; this is addicting as all hell. I mean, tyron biggums on the crack rock--addicting. I'm one shitty architect though. Rivers keep flooding my man caves. Stairwells never turn out like they're supposed to...etc...etc...

And I still can't make fire, so I'm forced to cower in an even darker cave at night.

I have no clue what I'm doing.

That's what's awesome. You will discover alot of things for a while. Makes for a great change of mind from games nowadays that tells you everything and hold you by the hand for everything.

Ahhh.. yeah. That sounds about right for your first Minecraft games.

Anyway, I suggest you getting some coal (in the default theme it's some cobblestone texture with black spots on it). You can usually find it on the sides of hills or digging a little bit. Then get some wood, make sticks, put the coal and the sticks together and you get torches.

Good luck :p

Please add this to the OP.
 
Started a new project on the server, a huge-ass walled city. Here's the area I'm using - it doesn't look like much from the map, but the centre of the area rises into a tight bunch of mountains with a deep river canyon running in between and either side there's a ton of ground to plan out an ordered city layout;

1-1.jpg


Here's the plan of where I'm going to put the city wall, which will have guard towers along it, 3 gate-houses at the north, east and south sides of the city and a bridge spanning the mouth of the lake to the south;

2-1.jpg


The circled area in this picture is where I've started - I've made a plaza and a half-dozen plots for large town-houses/mansions. The spots numbered 1-3 are individual peaks that could house single castle towers, while the area I've marked with 4 is a large raised area perfect for a fort overlooking the cliffs. The north side of the city will be for larger buildings, mansions/temples/gardens etc, while the south could have poorer housing, work-shops, farms, etc and the east side will be the harbour;

3-1.jpg


And here's what I've done so far;

2011-08-04_203137.png


Obviously this is going to take me an age to finish on my own - I'm going to make a start on the city walls in a bit, but once I've got the boundaries of the city sorted and made a few more plots anyone is more than welcome to come build here. I'm looking to mostly use cobble and stone with some wood for the theme, and have any towers topped with red wool spires.

Hell yes, I'm in. Sounds very Rome-y but completable.

Good luck! :p

Once I'm done with my extensive Arkyoto work, I wouldn't mind lending a helping hand if you want.

Definitely, the more the merrier. It's going to take forever to do the city wall, so I'll take all the help I can get :p

Finally gave it a shot with the Humble deal. Game doesn't perform very well. All I really got out of this is a very strong hope that the Xbox version will be worth it, done by good coders and artists (some of the mods have very nice style - default is ehhh), and ones wise enough not to use Java!

Is your computer from the 90's? You'd have to have a seriously poor computer not to be able to run Minecraft at a decent rate.

That's a pretty funny defensive remark, but no.
