teh ocean location seems like a great idea 
that actually would save a lot of digging down, tho you still need teh cobble and dirt to build the island
and by draining you get some buckets for the sewer system for "free"
great idea I'd say lets do that
For the roads on the upepr city, some discussion
- Bricks (no trolls on this vas ><)
- sandstone
- the half baked stones, smooth slabs

I think the first step for the big sky city is to keep flying on... =)
Also, aren't diamonds usually found, together with lava pools, slightly above bedrock? I would dig up a couple of blocks before digging to the sides.Mister_Bubbles said:Mine outwards, with occasional dips, rather than straight down - go in the opposite direction to that in which your first mine heads, and rather than just going down as fast as possible, tunnel downwards only every now and then.

Somewhere like this, where only minimal alteration would be required (filling in the shore, dredging the ocean).
By my mountaintop castle? But I liked being alone out there ...

Ok, that's what I assumed. Don't get me wrong though, I didn't dig straight down, I have a nice winding path with big areas dug out throughout... only after the fact did I wind straight down with stairs because the commute to the lower levels was long as hell. I did go up a couple of levels from the bedrock and start digging around - found a lot more iron and red dust as well as some blue crystals. I guess I just assumed the bottom of the world would all be lava and not unbreakable stone.Rapstah said:
My graphics clipped once when I was swimming in the ocean and I saw some lava beneath there - I started digging underneath it but I accidentally flooded the tunnel
. I know in one of the other worlds I created there was a huge cavern right near my spawn I was hoping to find something similar. I'll just dig around a bit more though, maybe spread some tunnels out to different areas.Rabbit Lord

I believe the best block level for diamonds are 10-16, to find level 10 know that the first level of bedrock is 5.

As a new Wii owner, the inability to purchase a copy of Metroid Prime Trilogy at retail is irksome to say the least.

There is certainly enough lava for me, at least! I made a new mine over the weekend in my single player game, and it seems to be completely surrounded by lava! I tried finding the source of the lava to no avail. N.B. always have a pond in your mine to jump in for when you are set afire by lava
For now I am just trying to find at least one free side to expand the mine on.

Oh, that's what that is? Was wondering. Just please don't raze the forests too much, lol
(or at least replant!)

Well we've had a lot of new people here, discussion is constantly going, so let's just keep discussion going in a positive direction and figure out the main materials for Castleton.
Mik, don't leave, seriously. Like mcrae said, months of good times and you want to quit because a new person, likely one who's on trial and not going to be around after 8/14?

Eh, just went to the server and now it's all explained. Still, I thought whoever made the tower made the floating text around and was just trolling.
Anyway, I guess it's ok to keep the tower (bootaay should decide anyway), but that text...
And mcrae, I already told you on the game but again, I over-reacted (which is lame, this being a game and all that) but I thought this was some griefer and not someone just kidding around. We have had a bunch setting stuff on fire and all that. I didn't want to have another griefer writing text in the air
Anyway, everything is ok I guess. I'll be back at night and I'll continue building in Castleton.
Bengraven, it's alright. As I said, I thought this was some griefer (we've had our fair share already). But apparently it was just juju and Ark Anyway, things are alright, I kinda over-reacted.
Hey mcrae, could you edit your posts, this is kinda embarrasing now

Yeah, that shit is so fucking dumb. I've left it standing for a good few hours now and I'm guessing it's intended target has seen it already, so whoever built it can either tear it down, or I'll do it myself next time I'm on the server. Enough of this shit already.

Hey all,
Been a SP Minecrafter for a while and would like to see what you guys have been doing on the Neocraft server (that is the server you all are talking about right?) I checked for the server address in the OP but didn't see anything. Is that intentional? Do I have to PM someone for the address?

It's all in good fun. I think everything is okay. If we just discuss all disagreements here with the community, I think we can all come to understand and respect each other amicably.
time to flood this thread with 11 pictures of the same things from different angles! i went and made a tree-house-fort thing yesterday and today. i still want to add some trees, water, and redstone, but not sure where and how. main goal was lots of stairs and ladders, and ways to get around. still gotta carve out a basement. and clear some of the green trees to give a nice view of the desert/river.
first view when coming from arkyoto
view looking south west, lower deck is slightly raised above the ground on the outskirts
view looking south east, i gated off the entrance to my mine
view looking north, from the lower patio
jumping up to the closest patio you can see from the last pic, looking northeast at the one tree i've used so far, you can see the ladder on the pillar giving access to the deck on the bedroom, and the two torches in the center are over the stairway to the lower patio
moving to the right move, view of the main deck area, looking south
closer view with the front door when heading in from arkyoto
moving up top now, looking south from the corner of one room
looking north into another room
further up my windy-staircase tower,
looking north from the upper tower
looking east from the upper tower
looking back towards arkyoto, south-east i believe
finally sunset looking off bedroom porch

Yeah, you'll have to mine everything - as for safe storage, you can lock chests and doors, but I think you need to be a citizen first. Either PM Ark here on GAF with your Minecraft username, or if he sees you on the server he'll upgrade you to a citizen.
We don't have much trouble we griefing, but it is an occasional problem so it's best to lock your stuff.

I was having difficulty connecting to the survival server. I input the IP and it says Connection refused: connect. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Yes. I've gotten more enjoyment out of it than I have many full-price retail games.

Of course the trees will be replanted I've actually planted quite a few forests already,
Chop a tree replant all the seedlings, that's just how it should work
