You should make a page for that on the wiki!
The Great Thunderstorm of October the first!
The walls I mentioned many a page back, well we finished it.

We call the area inside it Holladout, may build some lots and start an actual town in there.
[QUOTE=Profanwolf;32569017]Oh yeah by the way, everyone should be making lightning conductors
Fence + redstone torch ontop of your house!
[editline]1st October 2011[/editline]
Tried moving to new permissions, went back to old system.
It still works so eh.[/QUOTE]
Do lightning conductors need LOS to the lightning? do they work underground? Is the range of 20 in xyz or just xz? Thanks. I dont like the idea of conductors everywere but I'll live.

iirc, lightning rods don't protect any block above them, so they have to be above ground.
[QUOTE=ColonelCorn;32575611]iirc, lightning rods don't protect any block above them, so they have to be above ground.[/QUOTE]Thanks though this depresses me. Have things blow up or for very little challenge every 40 blocks has manditory redstone torch on stick. I cant see the value added but getting too it :(

Thunder is very rare. It's not hard to put a couple of sticks on your house in the many many hours between thunder. And it only blows up player made blocks.
Alright, I've got plans on who is going to staff the trade post, now I'm just stocking it, and working out a few other things.
I'm also looking to create some form of standards on metal so we can get a functioning economy going. My trade post is going to have a "metal and gem" exchange where metals and gems can be exchanged for fixed amounts. Here's that, and prices on other items we will be selling.

Yer I said for very little challenge or in other words the very easy task.
What I mean is I don't see the point of explosive lightning when protection from it is so simple and easy.
In effect the only thing the mod adds to the game in effect is every building now features a red stone torch on a stick on the top of it.
I don't find the look of a redstone torch on a stick appealing.
This is all IMO and has no intent to cause rage.
I quite like the look of a redstone torch stuck on a fence, since I place it at the front and center of the rooftops to the few buildings in my small area. As I said in server, reminds me almost of like a flag floating there.
Anyways, jojo and I finished the 100x100 walls to our place, like, a week ago, but I haven't had any idea of what to put in it. :v At the moment, it's just three small farms to periodically check and fill up the chest, since we don't really use it. There's a moat, but Endermen are willing to stand in to pick at our walls. The Nether portals are bugged, since exiting our own moves us about 1900 in the x-direction and almost 3000 in the z-direction. Any ideas of what to put up?

[B]e.[/B] I had some idea to put up a dock or a lighthouse, since the former could have some use. We thought about a tunnel to spawn through the Nether or through here, but both would require a lot more tracks than the five stacks we have.
Banned "vasilio" for flooding/griefing angelangel's travis house. Do you have something to defend yourself with?
Oh yes, and New Brimstone is under construction:

Being built by DrCow, Futurizehandgun, Blaisifer, Juliustoth, AbSnowNinja and myself.
I'd recommend bumping up the conversion of lapis luzuli to 1x iron for 4x lapis (though it is rare, when you find it you find a lot of it), and lowering the conversation of coal to 1x iron for 6x coal.

Any plans to put slimeballs in stock?

If we find a source, be it a cave or another city who's willing to trade in bulk.

I'll think about that for the lapis, but coal is staying put (because it takes 8 coal to burn 64 of an item, so it seems to fit).
Anyone have a good town that I could live in? I'd like to live near that trading post mentioned earlier if possible.
There's so much cool stuff being built I'm afraid my sad attempts at being artisitic will only ugly up the landscape[img]http://facepunch.com/fp/emoot/frown.gif[/img]
So lightning makes craters again? no me gusta.
looks like Port Travis is turning into Flintridge 2.
I vote taking out all the torches and placing mob spawners in hidden parts of the island.
Lightning, oh joy.
Half the farm destroyed and a rather large gaping hole in the roof. At least the redstone is going to be used for something i guess.
So uh... does lightning go through water?
Hey, new to the server here. I just arrived in Redwood Hills and saw a ton of empty land, I was wondering who's permission I need to ask to see if I could build a house?
Also, how do I protect my chests?
The Brimstone Trade Post is officially opened early.
Use [url=http://dl.dropbox.com/u/17239680/MCTRADE.jpg]this link[/url] for pricing. The link never changes.
God damn it I was about to get around to putting lightning conductors on my roof and at the top of the lighthouse. I had the fence posts and everything set up!
But now I can't be arsed.
When is 1.9 coming out...

I don't know, but I'm nearly positive profan [u]is not[/us] changing the map for it, but rather expanding it.

well I lost all my items trying to repair my lava lighthouse so fuck it~
- okay i put lightning conductors on my house and lighthouse
Finished the [url=http://www.fedorafellows.com/wiki/index.php?title=The_Sven_Brimstone_Foundation#Spawn_City_Branch]wiki page for the Sven Brimstone Foundation[/url], I'm going to call it a night.
Someone took out all of my torches in my fortress and now the whole place is crawling with endermen and creepers!
My fortress is in the middle of the desert near the spawn. it use to be surrounded by cactus but someone took it all. They even took out my sign board. i'm surprise they didn't take away the bed. I was planning to add some book case and tables, create windows and make a moat. Now I'm going to have to repair that castle.
Guys guys, I've never said I'm resetting the map for 1.9
