LRR Minecraft Server

[WAYF]

Have you only just joined? Cause you might not be registered (you need to contact AdmiralMemo for that), and/or your game mode is set on Adventure Mode.

[auberginequeen]

I joined a while ago but I was guinea pig in one of Memo's permissions tests. This started happening after that, though I don't know if the two are related or if it's a server issue. I haven't been around much so I don't know exactly when this started happening.

[AdmiralMemo]

Yeah, it sounds like you're stuck on Adventure mode for some reason. Get online sometime I'm available and I can fix that with a few keystrokes. (Adventure Mode is a remnant from the old spawn system that I have yet to get rid of. Still working on that. It's also a remnant of the jail system if you break out (by dying) without me letting you out. I don't think you've ended up in jail yet, even inadvertently.)

[FourEyedTroll]

Sounds like an old user-permissions error. Memo might be able to help you there...

[AdmiralMemo]

I made what I believe is an automatic fix for that, but I need a guinea pig to test it.

[Lyinginbedmon]

How convenient

[auberginequeen]

I'll be online after 8 PM EST today if you're available.

[AdmiralMemo]

Sounds good. Owl helped me test the new system, and it seems to be working.

Updated Map

[Lurkon]

I absolutely love the placement of Parker's Gate on that map. I don't think it should be different or anything, but it's pretty funny.

[AdmiralMemo]

Since our good buddy FourEyedTroll/Osprey has been accepted into a PhD program and soon won't have much time for MineCraft, I was thinking that we throw him a going-away party. That said, I think that it would be great to finally go kill that Ender Dragon as that party. I'm thinking September 28 (or thereabouts) might be a good day to schedule it? Thoughts about whether you can come and what would be a good time for everyone? I'm hoping we get at least 6 people to be able to do this, and hopefully more.

[Volafortis]

As long as it isn't the Saturday of the Theros prerelease or release, I can be there.

[FourEyedTroll]

New Map, using on-line Java-script software. What do people think?



Bonus using this is (although footpath stations are just bigger circles) it's pretty flexible, and I can pass the code to anyone to edit at a later date.

[Lurkon]

It's really nice, I think.
Sadly, the Cavern and Nether rails are swapped.


edit: What's WORSE?
edit again: Ok, looking at the last map, I get it now.

[FourEyedTroll]

It's called WORSE on the rail command blocks also I think, certainly on the signs at the place.

I'll correct the key, that was added later in MS Paint. It's not entirely automated yet.

[AdmiralMemo]

I like it, and it's probably cleaner. The few remaining 1-way sections are not indicated as such, though.

WORSE = Western Oceanic Research Station Echo
Ask Ike/Dutch Guy if you want to know why.

[AdmiralMemo]

OK, apparently, the 21st is Theros Pre-release weekend and the 28th is Release weekend. If we have heavy MtG players, they're probably going to those. Therefore, if we want any significant crowd, we'll need to push it either up or back. I'm hesitant to push it to this weekend, but I'm also hesitant to push it to October 5, too, since the guest of honor said that he might not make it in October.

Not sure what to do here.

[WAYF]

I won't be doing either of those things, I don't think, but as I might have mentioned before, I am possibly the worst fighter on the entire server. So either way, my involvement is going to be strictly limited to providing competent fighters with useful things, if that.

[FourEyedTroll]

Yeah, there's no neat way of doing the 1-way marks unfortunately, even using the station dashes doesn't look much like an arrow. I'm open to any suggestions.

[FourEyedTroll]

Memo, so you know, the next couple of weeks are really busy and not very well planned at present for me. At some point before October 1st I need to have spent several hours researching siege sites from 1640s, and have found somewhere to live in a city I've visited once. You might want to put off the End Raid until I can commit to an exact date. Sorry

[AdmiralMemo]

Well, I thought we discussed postponing the raid until October 5?

[FourEyedTroll]

Indeed, but it might need to wait a bit longer than that still.

[Dutch guy]

WORSE = Western Oceanic Research Station Echo
Ask Ike/Dutch Guy if you want to know why.

Indeed!

It started out on the LRRcraft server, where I had my own tiny little island way WAY west of spawn in the middle of a massive ocean. I built a lighthouse on it. While building I had the random thought "It kind of looks like a sausage" (in my defense, it was 2 am at the time). Dutch for sausage is worst. I kind of worked back from there and named it Western Oceanic Research Station Tango.

When I started on Memo's server, i needed a new name. And having decided to build a much bigger lighthouse I thus thought it would be WORSE than the last one. And thus Station Echo was born!

And now you all know

[Lyinginbedmon]

Meanwhile I think a lot of us remember the saga that was LRRNAP

[FourEyedTroll]

The irony being WORSE is now East of Spawn, and until recently, most other builds...
