Does nobody have sponges?
[QUOTE=BLUchameleon;52382189]Does nobody have sponges?[/QUOTE]
We do but not a lot, they're extremely rare especially as the server doesn't have a sponge crafting plugin.
I was wondering if I could get whitelisted

[QUOTE=ShimTaco;52381603]I actually wanted to build something like this amongst the cities. I really like the designs of some of the restaurants in New York City, how they seem to be average diners except with larger buildings on top.
Something also seems off about spawn city. I think we need to expand it with more skyscrapers, right now it seems wrong to have it so small with such big buildings. if you look at a lot of American cities, they're large with medium sized buildings, and only the densest center parts have skyscrapers.
it's probably not feasible but hey, it'd be cool. We need more facepunchers on the server.[/QUOTE]
I totally agree, which is why I'm semi confused that a mid-rise tower has been replaced with a 1 story diner.
Don't get me wrong, I love the diner, and it's jammy's lot to do with as he pleases, but I kind of liked the previous tenant of that lot. It added color to the skyline.
When I'm done with my railroad I have several projects in mind. I'm not really sure what we're doing with Wool's tower now that he is giving it up, so there may be potential there.
The other thing is, we've kind of began to run out of room, which is ironically the opposite thing of what happened on the last server. As much as I like old city, maybe part of it that hasn't been used could be given up to development? There isn't much there yet. I'm gonna try and push more development westward for now though.

Also, please build in Spawn! Any development is encouraged, no matter what it is (so long as, y'know, it isn't totally random and out of place. Like a spaceship hub or a giant monument of yourself.)
[QUOTE=BLUchameleon;52382189]Does nobody have sponges?[/QUOTE]
Sponges only really work well for small areas of water, for something this big gravel/sand is the best way to "drain" the water.
Also gravel is super easy to dredge because it's all over the ocean floor.
I have just over half a stack of sponges IIRC, though I don't know exactly where as I haven't been on in a month due to work. Just quietly lurking in the thread.
Well bois, I'm officially back. Built up some of New Tiber's walls and patched up the New Italia railway which was nuked to shit, among other things. Anything drastically new I should be aware of? Grinders? Systems? Settlements?
[editline]21st June 2017[/editline]
Oh, and if anyone is interested in developing in New Tiber, I'll provide materials and stuff free of charge. Anything Greco-Roman / of antiquity.

I went on that railway route yesterday to the clay lands, by god it got hit hard (before I arrived I should add). I repaired it somewhat but could do with being revamp with stronger materials as Ghasts like to play in that area.
Welcome back :)

Start planning your pavilion for the World's Fair, coming to a remote western valley this summer!
You can now craft sponges, recipe:

Will put it in OP for future reference.
I thought those were mushroom blocks until I looked up the plugin.
They're sand. Sand isn't renewable. Eww. :s:
(Yes, this isn't important at all. Yes, I'm super anal about renewability. But still. Eww.)

Have you even been to spawn?
Most of that sandstone wasn't mined, I'll tell you that for free.
Actually, if you've ever seen me taking off from the top of Duckiefeller center, it was me going to my sandstone mine to get supplies for a building. I mined all of my sandstone by hand.
And BY GOD it was bad.
The claylands portal site has undergone some renovations! I could actually use your help now, Mcgrath.

For whatever reason, I've designed an incredibly expensive building to be placed at North Broad and Oak:

However, I can hear you asking, "McGrath, what's with the back wall?"
Well here it is,
[t]http://i.imgur.com/CWBPmAY.jpg[/t]
"WHY DID YOU PUT A GIANT ASS BLANK WALL ON YOUR BUILDING!?!?!"
Au contraire. It is blank now, but this was intentional. The intent is to soon build an adjacent building that will be flush with the side façade of this one. It'll come soon, trust me.
"What are those white things?"
Those are AC units, commonly seen in old buildings that can't have Central Air installed, pictured here:

If anyone has any better designs for an air conditioner notify me.
(This post was made at 3 AM after listening to a Neutral Milk Hotel album so please excuse its shitty quality.)
Construction shall begin soon.
I like it.

Would like announce that the Arsenal is currently functionally complete and ready to receive visitors.
The Arsenal, named so due to being built for the purpose of farming gunpowder, is a small general mob grinder located high in the sky, linked to spawn via a nether portal within the tunnel network. You can find signs pointing to the Arsenal by going to Nether Spawn and going towards the Bone Zone. The Arsenal can also be accessed via elytra flight, and there is a convenient landing pad for that purpose.
Performance of the grinder is currently questionable due to complications with the mob limits n all that, but it works splendidly if most people are present at the grinder ;^)

Happy I live so close, unfortunate that I see no ladder to ground level :v:
You could make a TNT elevator that blasts you up there with the force of several simultaneous TNT explosions. :eng101:

It's actually quite close to your nether portal. Check the signs that lead to your portal ;^)

What?
Could I play? My IGN is Stolons
[QUOTE=The Pretender;52400502]What?[/QUOTE]
On the old server a few players were amassing large amounts of TNT underground with the intent to eventually set it off, with the presumed side effect of the server probably needing a restart afterwards. The server died off before the plan came to fruition, however.
[editline]26th June 2017[/editline]
It was code named “Planetcracker” and kept to eyes-only secrecy
As a sidenote, my little group of swampy islands off the coast of the claylands is now Nether-connected, and shall be heretofore known as The Bayou.
Now to actually build something.
