[I]A vigil (from the Latin vigilia, meaning wakefulness) is a period of purposeful sleeplessness.[/I]

[release][B]Welcome to Vigil![/B]

Vigil is a server consisting of a friendly and welcoming community.
We're always trying to be the best, and will always be the best.
And we are constantly improving the server so you can have a great time playing here.

The server consists of 4 worlds. A normal survival world, the nether, a market place
and a seperate world for the minigames (Currently only MobArena, but soon also PVP Arena and Spleef).

The Market allows every faction to take one spot, and create a whole store for their faction.
Here they may sell their valuables they have collected for the server's currency: Tokens.

The server is hosted in France, Europe.[/release]

[B]What other people say[/B]

[QUOTE="DarkusX99 on www.planetminecraft.com"]this is the best server ever. not too many restrictions, not too less. AND theres really no mention of donating for once[/quote]

[QUOTE="Kalisdar"]I can recomment this server for anyone. We have all kind of different people on here, battle hungry warriors, peaceful builders, happy miners.

Spawn looks amazing and the map is large so there is lots of space to build on.

The Plugins are really great and works pretty flawless, there is very little downtime and minimum lag and the server admin updates plugins very fast and work a lot on making improvements on the server all the time.

One thing I know is that when you join a server and you don't have any friends on it yet (I know what it's like from other servers) it can get boring as you just run around alone. But this will not be the case on this
server because I've taken time to build the foundation of a city where everyone can come live and build a house at. (The city is protected by the city faction and the piece of land you recieve will be protected so only you can build on it)
this does mean you will have to be in the faction but you are free to leave and join again as many times as you like.

So just hit me up ingame if you wish to be part of the city and get started right away. And should you have any questions ask me all you want.[/quote]

[B]Here you see a picture of the new and fresh spawn![/B]
Currently the only function spawn has right now is to show north, south, west or east.
But soon you will also be able to buy sunny weather and day time.
Along with advertisement for your faction on a bulletin board.

The rumors say the shop uses pigs as slaves and use them to farm cobblestone,
collected from the cobblestone generators in their basement,
others say it's just a harmless shop.[/release]

And last but not least, if you [I]any[/I] questions about the server or any suggestions on how to improve it, then please ask/suggest in this thread![/release]

[Draqo]

The server now works fine, it seems the minecraft.net servers got fixed over night, which means you can now join the server.

So to everyone who tried joining earlier today, please have another go at it, and enjoy.

This is a really fun server, the admins/mods are really friendly and the server itself runs smoothly for me and my friends, but it really needs more players :/

Is this server also RP-themed or is it just factions? Either way, I'd like to be whitelisted.

There's no whitelist anymore

[/QUOTE]What are the coordinates of this place, if it still exists? I'd like to join it.

[QUOTE=Lordgeorge16;33206994]What are the coordinates of this place, if it still exists? I'd like to join it.[/QUOTE]

They moved, but the towers still stands, so you could just claim it and live in it.

By the way, you should check out the Sparta faction, their faction is looking really good!

[QUOTE=Lordgeorge16;33257586]Ok, but where are the towers now?[/QUOTE]

I'll PM you the coordinates.

[Mattyyyy]

Fuck yeah, Sparta.
I live there. :dance:

[StealthArcher]

Agh, my first batch of claimed land was right around a lava lake. Now I can't empty it. :gonk:

New blog post on:

Check it out!

[StealthArcher]

Seriously Draqo, lava, why can't we move it/use it.

[Draqo]

[QUOTE=StealthArcher;33286662]Seriously Draqo, lava, why can't we move it/use it.[/QUOTE]

To prevent griefing.
Seriously, I've seen the horrors on other servers, lava shields all over the place, you couldn't even exit spawn.

[editline]15th November 2011[/editline]

Just make a ticket in-game, and I'll do it for you.

[Lordgeorge16]

I doubt it would be possible, but if it is, can we take all the chunks containing The 7 Towers and move them over to the 1.0 world? I've only just gotten started on the renovations and claiming the areas around/in it, I don't want to lose all of my progress but I'm not too happy about having two separate worlds.

If it's not possible, then I'd like access to the portal that leads to the 1.8 world, my IGN is the same as my Facepunch username.

[Mattyyyy]

Going to the 1.10 world is optional, you can just stay in the 1.8 one, as far as I can tell.

Given i play on 2b2t and goonimati and even there this does not occur I'm finding this a difficult fear to sympathize with.

I guess I should give it a try then!

I'll look into it, and if you want access to use the portal back and forth, please write a comment on the new blog post with you in-game name.

Exactly.

Thank you, good sir. I have no other complaints and the server is quite good.

EDIT: Actually, seems mobs still aren't dropping tokens when manually killed. (Not mob farm)
