How long is the recommended Bukkit build going to take? It's been weeks since the release of Vanilla
I have to confess I didn't expect it to take this long for them to get Bukkit updated. It probably doesn't help that Jeb and Co keep releasing weekly updates of Minecraft. I am just wondering what would we lose if we just went ahead and did vanilla 1.0 for now and added Bukkit later ?
Now on another note :-
This is a mega duper uber important announcement for residents of Dome City, specifically residents of the Alpha dome. It has come to our attention that several huge cracks have appeared in the pedestal of the Alpha dome, these cracks are large enough for a child's head to fit in. We don't know why you would want to fit a child's head in there but hey whatever floats your boat. Personally I have better things to do with my day than cram the heads of children into structural faults.
Our Chief Engineer Professor Crazylegzlu has tracked the source of the cracks to a new Disney castle build just west of Dome City. The City Administration naturally pulled a Microsoft and sent a cease and desist letter to the builder of the Disney Castle to which we received this reply :-
Disney Castle Lawyers said:
Ya having a a laugh aint ya, come and have a go if you think you are hard enough matey. Oh and you are damn lucky we aint suing you for breach of copyright those domes look suspiciously like the Epcot Dome
With all legal recourse shut off Dome City Administraton did the next best thing and we nicked all of Xun's cobblestone.
Now with regards to the structural damage to the Alpha Dome our chief Engineer Professor CrazyLegzlu had this to say :-
Prof CrazyLegzlu said:
After serious evaluation and extensive testing the Alpha Dome has not been compromised and is 100% safe. There is no danger to residents whatsoever. The pedestal will NOT collapse ...... honest it won't. The only way the pedestal could collapse is if everyone went and stood on one side of it. Well if you are stupid enough to do that then you deserve it
So there you go, don't fart in a certain way and the Alpha dome will be fine. I would like to stress that Prof Crazylegzlu is an authoritative in dome management and the fact he dresses up as Link from Zelda should not be a reflection of his intelligence.
I would also like to state that at no point was he blackmailed into saying these things after these pictures were discovered :-
Prof CrazyLegzlu doing something strange with a cow in a Jacuzzi
Prof Crazylegzlu doing unusual things to a squid, the RSPCA was involved.
I should stress we believe in personal privacy and would never make these pictures public (large prints of these pictures can be found at Dome City Souvenirs).
Now earlier this month our extensive big brother security system caught this conversation :-
Little Ginny - Mam I can barely move around here it is so cramped.
Mother - Oh do shut up or I will cram your head into one of the structural cracks in the dome. You whinge and cry more than your dead brother.
Little Ginny - wait, what ? Timmy is dead ????? how ? when ?
Later that evening :-
Mother - oh Gerald life in the Dome is wonderful but there just isn't enough space,
Gerald - for god sake woman shut up and make me a sandwich. I am skin and bones here and I have bed sores on my arse. What do I have to do to get you to make me a bloody sandwich.
Well Dome City residents you spoke and we tried to ignore you but you just went on and on and on about it. It is my pleasure to announce the opening of the Bravo living dome. This dome is like no other dome ever built. A structure with 12 pedestals and a surface area of 31,000 blocks. The structure contains 100,000 blocks of cobblestone and 45,000 glass blocks. All designed to keep you safe and dry from the harsh reality of the Neocraft server.
The dome is split into 12 plots of 50 x 50 and come with their own personal 6 - 8 floor pedestal so you can have your own S&M dungeon in which to do bizarre things with squids and hamsters. As always first come first serve, 6 plots have already been taken so hurry hurry hurry.
The last of 45,000 glass blocks put into place by Prof Crazylegzlu who took time out from various cow and squid shenanigans.
The full awesomeness of having no life
Enjoy the view from the observation sphere that somehow defies gravity
Now with a fully integrated transport system. If you can't walk because we broke your legs after you didn't pay your rent then no problem use the minecarts.
Yes even Commander Jane Shepard was impressed
Later that evening in bed :-
Mother - Oh Gerald life in the Bravo dome is so wonderful now, there is so much space. I can swing little Ginny around the room by her hair now.
Gerald - urgh, what ? what ? Oh not tonight Sebastian I have haemorrhoids.
Mother - WHO THE BLOODY HELL IS SEBASTIAN
Yes the Bravo Living Mega dome, the dome to end all domes. There will never be another dome like this. This is the last dome I swear.
COMING SOON : The Dome City Amusement Park (yes another bloody dome so I lied).
TL;DR - New dome built, it looks kinda cool if you want in grab a sign and stake a claim.
