Heya everpony.
I got a message from the server-provider. It seems, the server we're currently running is located on an instable host-server and maybe that explains the random lags we encounter.
However, the server will be moved to a new and more powerful host-server at Saturday 17th, ~1am - 7am CET (should be Friday 7pm - Saturday 1am EST) OR Sunday ~1am-7am CET (Saturday 7pm - Sunday 1am).
Yes, I know, it's not a very convenient time for some of you but I can't change the time and I'm certain, you'll find something else in the downtime.
I just hope that'll remove the server-instabilities and we all can enjoy a lag-less experience of breaking blocks

Town is looking really good, here's an overhead shot a few structures that are 'missing' have just been moved to better spots so if you come in here and OMG WHERES MY STUFF we moved it just ask in game.

planned roads are NOT exact just the general area we want them.

We had some drama today, someone wasnt on for over a week and we removed their building because it was in the way of town hall and it was before Cane had the mod that allows him to cut and paste blocks on the map.
Now here's the story, if you're one of the people we had to do this to, just let us know we'll give you your blocks back we didn't do this out of spite or anything. Just it was in the way of town, if your stuff is missing most likely we moved it, if we did have to take it down we'll give you all your shit back seriously. This doesn't have to be a big ordeal.
Said person decided to TNT another building that we hadnt taken down/moved yet because we are still waiting on a response then lied about it ._. this was completely unnecessary we were probably going to take it down or move it anyways. Hell we probably would have let them TNT it just for the fun of it if they had just asked.
TL;DR be nice, love and tolerance all that stuff, if we had to mess with your building just ask it's probably still in tact somewhere and we can move it for you. If not we'll give you your blocks back and probably even help you rebuild it.

Server moving
The server will be moving to a new physical machine, so I will be running backups to ensure everything gets saved. Server will be down until further notice.

I'd love to join this server if still possible.

So when the server came back up, spawn protection was off.
Camail and potmilk made this:

Those town plans look pretty cool, I lucked out when I half randomly chose my house position, its close to the town but not too close to be in the way of anything atm :p
except for that tiny bridge at the front but if that has to go so be it, only took like 3 seconds to make hehe
edit: one random question, can we all donate stuff into Aranarth's storage or is that for something in particular?

So about that main road: what are we making it out of? I'd like to suggest stone bricks, I think they look the best for a road. I also have an absolute shit ton of stone made and am still making more that I can donate to the cause.

Stone bricks for the most part, big thoroughfares will probably be 4 wide while side connectors will be a normal 2 also main roads might have edges to them and lanterns etc. We're trying to find if theres a mod to extend light range so we won't have to have five million torches everywhere to stop spawning.

Any stone brick or smooth stone (to make stone brick) that you need, feel free to come to my mine and take some from the chest labeled "stone". There's a ton of it in there.

So... you guys should totally make a video-tour of Liquestria for us non-minecrafters sometime! I'd love to see how you ponies have been spending all your time away from IRC. 
From what I can see in the pictures, it's probably a good thing I didn't join in. I'd probably just end up ashamed of my meager architecture skills. The christmas tree is pwetty!

I should be really sad that all of my work from this week is completely underground and unseeable by a screen shot and...wait, ya that does make me sad .
But for the main roads I want to talk to Cane a bit more about width, I think the entirety of the main road should be four blocks wide. If they are meager 2lane roads most people will just take normal shortcuts. I'll probably stop working on my giant hole to the center of the earth tomorrow and make some mock ups.
Oh, and Iron Pick #28 met an unfortunate fate in The Hole. We lose a lot of great picks that way....RIP.

There's more to the game than architecture. =) There's gathering materials by mining, logging, or hunting down monsters; crafting useful items and keeping the tool chests stocked; farming to keep our food supply up. Though it is true -- most of the game is in constructing things, and I don't know how much I'd recommend Minecraft if you don't have any interest in actually making things.
Still, if you ever decided to drop by, we'd welcome you.
I'll be updating the OP today with more news. Should be something up in a few hours.

I was thinking since no one has claimed the foundation on the mountain to the southwest I think we should build a castle or something there. I would be glad to help since I now find my house to be done.
What do you think about that Commitee Mark Crusaders?

The problem with that mountain (and possibly one of the reasons whoever began construction up there stopped working on it) is that it's so close to the build ceiling that you can't really do anything big. We'll have to lower the mountain a bit if we want to make anything with a spire or tower.
Still, that's quite doable. The main reasons nothing has been built up there is 1) someone started a foundation there, clearly intending to build something, and we didn't want to step on their toes, and 2) nobody's had a great idea for what to put there yet.
At this point I think we might as well give up on expecting whomever made the foundation to come back to finish it. It's pretty much been like this since day one. So we're crossing off point 1 and focusing on 2. In other words, if anyone has some great ideas for the place, let's freaking do it already.

was working a little bit on lowering the mountain but its slow going

My airship is basically done, might add some bed's or something to the inside of it, but since there will be nothing connecting it to the ground, it's mostly there for looks/pegasi. It might fit in the "something low profile" area.
edit: or if you want to move it back to where it was, I think it would look nice.
