Nevermind i dont even care. well if you read op again, everything done even during the construction phase was being logged, so irninja would be able to find it. I think he has a mod to track down diamonds and infos like when and the amount of diamond was placed onto the world. If your goal is diamonds, it does not take long to dig down looking for them.
Yup. He said he banned 2-3 people already trying to cheat the system. One of them being someone during the construction phase who hid a chest near spawn in order to loot it at launch.
The diamond blocks that you can spot on the map are shrine challenges. They are puzzles/challenges designed to test your skill in the game. If you can complete them before anyone else you can claim the prize at the end. Some of them are easy and were solved relatively fast, some of them are extremely difficult.
If you should find and try my challenge then I wish you luck. Its more fair than "I wanna be the guy" but it will feel as difficult in some parts.

Is it possible some of the builders hid/placed them so they can use those themselves when the server starts? When we were constructing our "secret shrines", ninja requested that we mark them with diamond blocks so he could find their entrances and fill the chests with items. They were removed before the server launched. Uh, so technically all I would have to do is go to the areas marked on this map with diamond blocks... and then I'd find a shrine? Not very secret :x
true because we're using an earlier version of the map but even if you find it, there's the challenge to complete it. Most of them are hard, tricky and deadly >=D. And yes, you need to think for some of them.

What happens if you run out of food on the server? Do you die or does it halve your HP? I seem to be hearing both sides.
I am aiming to settle a spot that probably doesn't have easy acces to farming right away but i don't like the idea of slowly dying or ending up dead just trying to get there without food on me.
|
Is the server just going to go down every day and then come back at like whatever time?
|
If you run out of food it takes you down to 50% hp. I know because I was running around with no food for the majority of the time I was playing.
|
Zalz : You can only go down to a minimum of half hp through starvation.
Freakeh : The server is currently going through a change of provider from a less stable one to a much better one, once the transfer is complete i expect the server will be up constantly.

Ah, that sounds good! I don't quite like the idea of shrines or people just getting items because they get there quicker....it should be that each faction or player really works for their items. Then the factions who tech up to full iron or whatever becomes most dominant!

the chest gets refilled once in a while and they're usually hard to get to. Even with god mode on during the construction phase, we "died" many times trying to solve most of them lol. Once you know the path, it still takes skill to complete some of them.

The proper version for the server is 1.8.1, yes? Perhaps I'm blind and it's in the OP but do we need any user-end addons to join/play?

No addons needed, just minecraft

Sounds interesting. I might just buy minecraft for this. I've been on the fence since I didn't really have anyone else to play MC with, and I got tired of being forever alone in my cracked version :/

Server should be back up soon. We're working on getting it on the new, lag free server.
I'll give you an update soon.

Experience says that a "Soon" without the TM mark is all a lie!

Luckily we aren't Blizzard

Haha, yea I agree on that. If that were the case not only would we miss the 11th oct mark we'd likely get the Blizzard galore treatment! Push the release date to infinity and beyond!

Is eerything done so far just temporary and will be wiped?

I'm actually so confused right now as to the status of the server, on main page it says stuff will be saved yet in game i just got told nothing matters as it is getting wiped?
