I don't agree with that, you should make the entire city pvp free so people can spread out in every direction of the world. Some bitches players can make an embargo around the spawn podium and limit the movement of players.

Agree. Make spawn city pvp free.

Also, Will you guys be removing the bans made on me and jealkeja so that we can start over?

An Exodite myself, I don't mind trying out something else this time, maybe an underground base or something. It's nice having a big castle but, 1) I find cobblestone ugly and 2) the castle being so big made any changes quite hard to apply.

I mean, take the seaside wall for example, someone in the US timezone made it entirely out of cobblestone, until we didn't have anymore left. So I said to myself, well, I'll replace the inside of it with dirt and gravel, and put a nice wooden floor, etc.
It took houuuuurs. And it wasn't that rewarding either since I wasn't really adding anything, but mostly building something that had already been built.

On the other hand, I find the experience to start from scratch much more exciting. The vulnerability and the possibilites offered to everyone are quite enjoyable. Frankly, I don't think anyone could've gotten to our chests without sacrificing 10 players just to get through the wall layers...

Ninja, did you get the mafia faction application? I PM'd it to you but I don't see ourselves on the faction list yet.

Not a big deal, I just want to make sure we get all the paperwork filed before the deadline.

Since the server is resetting tonight when I'm a sleep, here is the map I made/collected from traveling around the world. As you can see, the area around the spawn is really full, while there is plenty of room in the rest of the world.

Factions Map 9/10/2011


Doors are now less safe than 2 blocks of dirt, as you only need to remove the block below the door in order to make an opening. All my walls will be 2 thick, so you need to destroy 4 blocks to get in (a.k.a. you need to wait a minute or be with 2, like it is now)

There is no point in hiding chests. Put them in plain sight and no-one can touch them. What is the point in hiding them in your house/base/mine?


All Europeans miss out on all votes. Can we make all votes have a 24hour duration? Or a 24hour warning before balance changes are made? (some exceptions require immediate fixing of course)


Can factions have a default power of like 10, and have each member only add 5 power to the total?
Deaths take off 3, and seeing how you can go in negative power (f.e. -5) no land is safe. This makes it so the land claimable and the power lost for 1 player death is much more equal between big and small factions.

All factions need a minimum amount of space to make a decent house/fort/farm, making it bigger for more members requires much less space than the initial building. This also makes it so power loss from deaths are more equal between factions of different sizes. For example: right now 1 member of a 1 player faction dies and loses 4 out of max 10 power = 40%.1 member from an 8 player faction dies and loses 4 out of max 80 power = 5%.
But if you use the example i gave earlier the 1 player faction loses 3/15 = 20% and the 8 player faction loses 3/50 = 6%.

It is a problem that we all discussed as a group and due to the size of the map (which will be many times larger) in addition to the reduced faction count there should be more protection for the spawn from the guilds vying for recruits. With all that said I know there will still be concerns for people to spawn camp the podium area. The Admins have agreed to act as arbitrators for accusations of griefing in the city area.
