Waffle House Minecraft SMP Server - Games

Joining is being changed to a PM on FP with your IGN. Much simpler. After so many people joining, it seems the crowd here on FP is a really good one. [img]http://9us.us/vennie1.jpg[/img]

Oh Vennice, with all your awesomeness I lag so much but god damn it, the city gives me a boner. Also Hyrule is a nice place to live now :D [IMG]http://i855.photobucket.com/albums/ab111/KevinsLunchbox/ForeverAlone.png[/IMG] Forever alone D:

That's a cool thing texture :v:

Our last open house went so well that we're going to do it more often. Our server will be open to the public today, starting now until 5pm. Come give us a try! Our server is mc.turbowaffle.com

Posting because reddit is down :saddowns:

A little birdy told me we are going to test and see if we can get the nether working this weekend along with the 8GB more memory.

more memory means less lag right?

There's literally no lag on the server already that isn't caused by a bad Internet connection on the client end, the 8Gb will help keep the server silky smooth while running two maps at the same time, with hopefully more players.

[QUOTE=KevinsLunchbox;27956529]more memory means less lag right?[/QUOTE] Not really, even if they are running a ramdisk taking up part of the ram, 16 gigs is quite excessive.

oh idk, its just me who lags :D I was wondering if it was going to help me out

[QUOTE=Profanwolf;27956670]Not really, even if they are running a ramdisk taking up part of the ram, 16 gigs is quite excessive.[/QUOTE] Indeed it is. Hey, don't you have a server to... What exactly do you do, anyway?

[QUOTE=woolio1;27958825]Indeed it is. Hey, don't you have a server to... What exactly do you do, anyway?[/QUOTE] Stalk other server owners clearly :v: Well, that and build massive cities to make people abandon theirs

[QUOTE=Profanwolf;27959053]Stalk other server owners clearly :v: Well, that and build massive cities to make people abandon theirs[/QUOTE] Massive cities? I dont like the sound of that, too laggy for me.

Kevins computer is from the 1980's. Powered by a 'Dual-Gerbil Inside'. On a side note. TNT has now been enabled on the server. Thanks to our anti-grief mods we can easily rollback those who do wrong with it.

lol Yay for anti-griefing tools!

[QUOTE=Profanwolf;27959053]Stalk other server owners clearly :v: Well, that and build massive cities to make people abandon theirs[/QUOTE] It worked the other way with stormhaven and old vennice :v:

I miss Old Vennice. My boat, my poor poor boat. :(

[QUOTE=Trevian;27963429]And my facility is getting obsidian barriers put in around the collection room to avoid unwanted intruders getting in and getting the goods.[/QUOTE] not very effective if you ask me, anyone with a diamond pick or lots of time (prolly 5 mins) can get in, get the goods and get out, even through obsidian. If you look at my diamond/gold/lazuli vault I surrounded the entire vault in locked furnaces and chests. No one except for admins can get in and even then, we have 3 admins, plus they're honest admins. obsidian = no no

We have another open house planned soon, all the cool kids are coming.

[QUOTE=Belruel;27968094]We have another open house planned soon, all the cool kids are coming.[/QUOTE] Yep! We have an all-day open house planned for Saturday to coincide with our next server upgrade. You can still check us out before then though, the server will be open to the public most of today. Log in at mc.turbowaffle.com!

Server upgrade eh? Whats going on during the update?

[QUOTE=KevinsLunchbox;27972618]Server upgrade eh? Whats going on during the update?[/QUOTE] More RAM. We'll be at 16 gigs. I'd like to be able to run two servers simultaneously for when we get Nether working.

[QUOTE=Turbowaffle;27972691]More RAM. We'll be at 16 gigs. I'd like to be able to run two servers simultaneously for when we get Nether working.[/QUOTE] You should have read about bukkit, because bukkit already has multiworld support = no need for two servers, two worlds are integrated into one server. I haven't noticed any extra memory usage above the usual yet.

Thanks for the info Profanwolf. We're actually using bukkit already, but from what I've read in the threads about it, plugins need to be updated to support it and people are still having lots of strange issues. I generally prefer to have a more stable environment than be on the bleeding edge. As far as the memory goes, I want to give MC a bigger chunk of memory for the RAM disk since it's filling up, though it's more future-proofing at this point. It's a pain to take a day off, go to the data center, pull things down and all that jazz, so I'd rather do it sooner than later.

Might save some time. You never know.

Are there any apartment buildings in Venice? Also, very nice server. Good job.

I think most of Vennice proper is full, but there's a handful of us that build on the outskirts (closer to the community center side), and there are other towns popping up all the time.

I'm currently building a floating town. Craftington "Where legends are born" In other words, when do we plan on bringing back the border guard unbreakable rock? I got an outpost at one edge of the border and I'm waiting till the unbreakable rock comes back so I can re-create edgeville from runescape.
