I'd be interested in getting involved here. I followed the last thread on and off and liked what everyone was putting together.
I'm fairly noobish when it comes to Minecraft, I played for a fair bit with my brother locally a while back, though nothing major so I've probably forgotten how to build/craft anything! I'd love to help out where possible.
I believe my IGN is: 1_DUCK
:)
I figure I should join the server.
IGN: MajorWX
I'll be on all night tonight. We can do the raid when I get home
Whitelist me.

i am connecting up the river network with canals to one another, all of which will lead through to my place and (ultimately) to spawn
i've set pertinax loose on one of the canals to tunnel somewhere. no clue where he's going
Built my house and claimed my area.

Theres already a guy whos dug an extensive tunnel network under that snow biome
I'm ready for the raid, if anyone else is coming. I will be on until 2 AM tonight

That's alright, I'm not mining there.
Hey pre, can you expand the border by like 100 blocks
The raid is so close but the border is in the way

Don't let this epic saga of a raid on a far off haunted mansion come to a dismal end, let it go on to plunder and bring back wealth of treasures and tales back to spawn for the glory of the city and its tenants
I'm on my way home, ETA one hour. Got off a bit late tonight.
I think I'm gonna make a solo attempt at a raid. If I make it, Scorp, you can have all that shit you called dibs on.
I'll be back in a moment
Never mind then :v:
So for all not on during the raid,
The mansion was a total bust. The whole structure and its loot and mobs did not generate inside. There are a number theories as to why, ranging over the fact that they're very buggy to expanding the map messed it up somehow. Unfortunately, all of my cartographers are selling me the same map for some reason so either that's the only mansion on this entire seed somehow, or different villages instead of different individual villagers sell different maps.
I did manage to plant my flag on the shore at the very least, and we did find a mushroom biome if anyone wants to have the audacity of bringing mooshrooms back to spawn.
tell me if anyone finds a mesa biome, for I intend to stripmine them
So when it comes to this community/server, can you call dibs on any section of the entire map? (Assuming someone else has not already).
And how does it all work exactly, is it sort of 'every man for themselves' in terms of getting tools/armour/food etc? Sorry if that's a silly question, I haven't played in a community before like this and don't wanna piss anyone off by taking stuff from say spawn (if there is anything) without knowing. (:

I think its ok to claim fairly large sections of map if its sufficiently remote. I also have a self made rule about only building outside of peoples line of sight, so don't go building a glass skyscraper next to somebodies medieval village.
If you need some gear feel free to head to mine and get full iron armour and tools + food

People work together I think, especially so if you're working on/in a town with someone.

IMO find yourself a spot, put some torches around so people know roughly your borders and get the essentials sorted then look into making something or joining a project
I'm declaring ownership of any rivers (for the purposes of canal digging and connecting them up) not otherwise specified to be owned by someone
also I am taking any commissions for the construction of bridges, railways, canals, etc people need

Thanks mdeceiver! I'm happy to help anyone who needs it. I'd probably end up building a cow/sheep farm, is there a limit or recommended number of NPCs allowed in a certain area. I don't want to cause any lag issues.
I've reached your area but couldn't find any ready made iron armour/weapons/tools. Only an iron sword. There are some iron bars I could craft the the armour etc with, but don't want to take that from you!

feel free to take some to craft armour + pick + axe + sword + shield. that won't be much and I'm gonna do lots of mining over weekend anyway
Take some food and have a look round the various stuff people have made and see what style best suits you or perhaps find a place to build your home.

Thank you! I have rounded up a few sheep near your place for you in case you wanted them. Take this as a token of my thanks :) . Feel free to cull the sheep/remove the structure, it's only made of dirt.
I'll repay the iron once I get mining too.

Dont worry about the iron, the sheep are enough I can make my afk wool farm now.
Since you're in the area you might consider taking a boat north to check out [URL="http://184.171.161.162:8124/?worldname=world&mapname=flat&zoom=5&x=65&y=64&z=-1504"]scorpious' place[/URL] not sure if he's taking helpers but its a cool place to check out medieval style I think. Probably safer to use the rivers to get back than it is to use the roads also

I'll have a look around when I have a chance.
Does anyone have dibs on [URL="http://184.171.161.162:8124/?worldname=world&mapname=flat&zoom=4&x=2517&y=64&z=-1323"]this island?[/URL] It's North East of spawn. If not, I'd like to claim it if that's ok. I haven't explored it yet but wanted to check before I make the trip.
After explore I couldn't see any signs of life, so I assume it's up for grabs.
I shall call it, Merry Twit! (based on Charlie Chalk's Island! :p) A lot of work will be required to make something of it, but could work out to be something nice.

also if I get contracted for an infrastructure project I might hire some staff to aid me
I've enough iron, dirt, stone, and wood to build some railways now
do people accept payment in the form of emeralds btw? I might use that as a go-to money instead of fucking about with bartering

Too easy to aquire for people with villages [sp]cough scorpious cough[/sp]
Maybe get a book write ious or debts and sign it, then use the books as unforgeable "bank notes". Once a debt is collected/redeemed the book is dropped in lava to destroy the debt.
I think diamonds might be a good "base" currency. They're finite and fairly rare. If you are using books to record debts you could work in deci-diamonds or mili-diamonds. (a 1000th of a diamond doen't exist but you could combine 1000 of them to make a diamond)
You should set up a merchant bank. Give someone 10 diamonds, they pay back 11 diamonds at a pre agreed point in the future. I guess you'd need to get consent for debt collection type stuff - by taking this loan I agree to the following terms: If the debt is not collected in full the creditor may claim stuff from my place of similar value. You could fast become the most hated player on the server!!!!! Use name tags to rename zombies to "bailiff" and fill someones house with them.
Or you could go full fiat currency, agree on 1 player to be the central bank, they hand out signed books with denominations of currency which have no real value its just that we, as players agree thats the price the book holds. Players might hold this central currency in their house then use self made ious for the real dealing. (say you have central bank issued currency books with denominations 1,2,4,8,16,32,64,128 in various amounts, it becomes impractical to carry around loads of none stacking books, so instead of I carry around 1 unsigned book and I write "IOU 127 central currency" then sign it instead of giving you 7 centrally issued books). You'd need some assurance that they have the means to pay back the IOU though.
The central bank would stop people going full greece and mass producing "central currency" at different rates.
That'd work well with your 19th century capitalist thing. Usury and coal.
So, I went to the area below just to check and found no signs of former inhabitants, so I'm claiming the area as New Jamestown (Name Pending). It's going to be a bit swampy/bayou themed, if that wasn't obvious by its location. I figured it's far enough away from spawn that there aren't that many people down here, but just putting it out there in case anyone was surveying the area.
