BUT! Wobbu has the distinction of being our server's very first Advisor! He is still a normal member (no creative, etc.), but because of his overall behavior and effort on the server, he has been "promoted" to put it easiest. An Advisor position functions with the overall purpose of better helping out the server. This means our regular members can come to Advisors for help with: conflicts, questions, and assistance. If neither of the two admins (myself and El Heroe) are online, Advisors will function as our eyes and ears. This means regular members CAN go to Advisors for help with griefing or theft, inappropriate behavior or language, and general help. The Advisors can determine what is occurring and let us admins know about it so we can make decisions or better handle things. There will be more of you given this role in the future, so continue being great members as you already are and your dedication to our awesome server will show. Being an Advisor doesn't mean you need to be a Welcome Wagon for new members either, but simply helps us admins with the goings-on of the server and better awareness of what occurs. So congrats Wobbu! Don't let it get to your head. ;) Joking! |
Ooh thank you, I'll try my best :D Just a heads up, I wouldn't trust that White Mage guy.

Can I just move into Halloween Plaza? lol I'm not feeling the Hobbit hole any more.

Also, since I already put all the work in I may as well sell the Hobbit hole as it is. All the space is cleared it just hasn't been facny-fied. Mainly needs better walls. I put a bunch of signs out if anyone wants to look. |

Heads up - Thunderdome will be happening soon. Make sure y'all have a piece of Obsidian to put outside your houses.

If anyone is in need of obsidian, Penta and I can provide!
By the way, I'm now selling rabbits and squid in the pet store! |

Okay...
So after about a week (or two?) of work, the anthology adventure map I created is open for exploring! Here's a brief synopsis and some guidelines: The Moon http://hydra-media.cursecdn.com/minecraft.gamepedia.com/4/4b/Moon_Phases.gif?version=3326d09a21e5a1f5184e97b6f0519127 PART ONE The year is 2063 AE. You are a citizen of the United Earth and have enlisted to be on the Antilles, a colonizing space station located near Earth's moon. In the first part of the anthology, you are assigned to work in Sciences and Technology where your colleagues have been experimenting with opening dimensional shifts that lead to new galaxies and planets outside the Milky Way. Something unexpected occurs and the entire space station is thrown into turmoil. You must escape with your life and discover what has gone into the dimensional shift...and what has come out of it. Guidelines The one thing I ask is that you EXPLORE! Every single button (stone button) is an interactive storytelling element. If you ignore even a single button or skip entering a single room, you are wasting your time and you will miss the plot! This is not a challenge or battling map, but designed for immersion and plot. The only time you should avoid pressing a button is if it is marked with an End Stone block (see below). There is only one and you should seek out the other buttons BEFORE pressing this button. http://i1062.photobucket.com/albums/t483/Grassyfilth/default_endstone-1.png A good rule-of-thumb is to always press buttons closest to you first before pushing any further down. There are several hard-to-locate buttons, but seek these out for smaller, interesting details to further immerse yourself in the story. RULES
Location Access to the Moon map can be found in the Transport Hub to the left. It is an End Stone portal with a moon skull. Once that is pressed, you will be taken to the map hub. Simply enter the portal and your story will begin! http://i.imgur.com/7kmYXJv.png |
My internet is out (posting from my parents' house), so that's why I haven't been on lately. I'm still in need of sand (and a lot of it), so if anyone still has some extra and doesn't know what to do with it.
Also, thank you for the people who have given me sand so far! It's greatly appreciated, and I wish I knew who left me some so I could thank them. |
Another new episode featuring the Gauntlet 2.0!

1) I feel terrible every time someone loses at the final battle. I feel bad, generally, when someone loses at any level past the fifth. So the final battle is ONLY for the prize, but you still beat Tier I. I think I said that on the vid, but you didn't see it. 2) I'm glad you're back! I enjoy your videos a lot and especially getting to see my work from a new perspective. :) |

Just wanted to give a few updates on some OP matters:
|
There's also a Hedge maze in the works if I ever get around to it, lol! November seems like a good month for it though. I'll try to actually do it some time this month.
|
So I guess this is my new home for now?
Spoiler:

With that said, you might want to update the episode numbers to reflect the numbers in the actual Youtube videos and the order of release. This will help people from getting confused, especially since I refer to previous videos in some of them, so messing around with the order might not be a great idea. =P I'd recommend the following: Episode 0.1: PokeCommunity Server Part 1 Episode 0.2: PokeCommunity Server Part 2 Episode 0.3: PokeCommunity Server Part 3 Episode 0.4: The Gauntlet! Episode 1: Night of the Gauntlet Episode 2: Community Builds & Shenanigans Episode 3: Tomb of Heka Episode 4: Abandoned Mine Episode 5: First Gauntlet 2.0 Run! Episode 6: Wobbu's Revenge! |

Everybody congratulate eternallyanna for becoming the newest advisor!
:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D |
If anyone was wondering why I'm not on the server, well let's just say I temporarily left the server. I know it sucks but family issues :/ I might come back at the end of November but still not sure yet. I'm gonna keep on tabs by wels' videos, and this thread too. Hoping by the end of the month, the lag thing is fixed. Btw Matt, I have some shots of Spruce Heights but they might be outdated.

Here's another new episode! I know, this is Episode 8 and I skipped Episode 7. There were some technical difficulties with the upload for Episode 7. I'm going to have to re-render it and upload load it tomorrow, so look for Episode 7 then!

I was able to get to campus again tonight to re-upload episode 7! This time, it worked. Here you go!

ugh. i feel selfish asking this, but is it possible that the thunderdome be moved? i was going to add the main keep of the castle behind the one that's already built, and it would end up overlapping with where the thunderdome is at the moment. is there some kind of server sorcery that can be used to copy and paste the thunderdome blocks a bit further back?
i understand if it's too much of a hassle, but i still want to keep my fingers crossed if there's a reasonable compromise for this. |

Here's what my plans would have looked like superimposed over the map atm just fyi.
I know that I should've voiced my suggestions that the thunderdome be moved earlier and this probably wouldn't be an issue, but I'd be really grateful if we could work something out. I wouldn't mind pitching in some time to reconstruct the thunderdome. I don't mean to come across as pushy, just a little disappointed that I didn't say anything earlier. I gave the login of my minecraft account to my girlfriend to help me concentrate on my studies hehe XD |

Okay, so I did a quick video test with a recording software. It's fairly choppy and the aspect ratio is not correct (text is cut off), but this is just a small preview of the Moon, Pt. II that I figured I'd use to test out my stuff. :)

As for editing/rendering, iMovie worked fine for me so I just went with that. Was a pretty smooth little bit of work, though the video is very short so it could get trickier the longer I make them. |

If you want I can edit anything for y'all, I have access to Premier as a film student. All you need is a place to put the footage and a basic idea of what needs to be in the video. I like using Open Broadcaster to record personally.

The Detroit Emblem is now up for grabs! To achieve this emblem, you must take a screenshot of your house (inside and out) and publish these pictures in this thread to prove that you live in Detroit!
*Note: If you got the Verdanturf Resident emblem before, you can still get this emblem. |
For the Detroit emblem, this is my house in Spruce Heights.
Spoiler:
|
Here's another new episode from the server!
Also, concerning the Detroit Emblem... I still need to post a picture, given that there have been a multitude of videos which show the inside and outside of my house? |

The following reads from bottom to top. It's the server chat log after I sternly warned Mage and Wobbu not to go in the still-in-progress Pt. II of the Moon. SERVES YOU RIGHT.

entirely expected; still funny

^ Well done, guys.

Anyway, the lower part of the basement was just a gaping hole of mismatched stones the last time you visited, that's why you don't remember seeing the enchanting room, haha. Also, I like how none of us bother to take down Mage's fish. We all just accept that Detroit is the city of puffer fish now. |

We should really have a flag for Detroit imo |

The Moon http://hydra-media.cursecdn.com/minecraft.gamepedia.com/4/4b/Moon_Phases.gif?version=3326d09a21e5a1f5184e97b6f0519127 PART TWO The year is 2063 AE. You are a citizen of the United Earth and have enlisted to be on the Antilles, a colonizing space station located near Earth's moon. In the second part of the anthology, you are a Research and Development worker assigned to explore the Moon's mining facilities and discover the source of intense tremors that are interrupting daily operations in the mines. Your assignment takes you deep into the Moon's core and puts your inquisitiveness to the test. Guidelines The one thing I ask is that you EXPLORE!

In all seriousness though, I haven't even finished Part I yet. You'll get feedback in video form hopefully within the next week though. =) |

And yay! Thanks! |
Moon Pt. 2 feedback:
Ok first of all it's really cool. I didn't expect the twist near the end (maybe it wasn't a twist and I missed a button or was distracted lmao) but I did notice some issues: Spoil tagged for those who haven't gone through it yet Spoiler:
Issues are no big deal tho and don't ruin the experience. Also a suggestion :D Spoiler:
|
Quote:
1) I recognized that might be an issue...and Part III is in the works now, so I will be fixing that very soon. ;) 2) No biggie on the paintings. They aren't worth continually replacing. Did you like the thing though in that room? I tried something neat and different. I enjoyed it, at least. :P 3)I did do that at the beginning, but in order to get command blocks functional, I had to sacrifice that neat effect on the "inside". As for that dialogue...I guess I'll need to see. Sometimes it won't activate if there are two people doing the storyline at the same time. So if anyone else was there or near, it will trigger for them. |
Klippy is currently being an evil puppet master, if anyone wants to see. In other words, Wobbu dying repeatedly and myself sitting in a corner.
|
But now we're playing chess.
|
re dialogue: we both ran it entirely separately so it wouldn't have been the other person getting signals

Also I'm chess king of the world ayy |
If there isn't a giant Obsidian Monolith on the moon exactly 1:4:9 ratio for dimensions in size

Holy Zebes I will join the server right now. Haven't played in so long I forgot Minecraft even existed. See you all there.

Just a quick announcement! The Chess Hall is open as of this morning! Feel free to come on down and play a game of chess against a friend! You're welcome to bring your own set of pieces (you can buy them now at the Skull Emporium for six diamonds) or use one of the default sets located on the third floor (board level).
There's also an area set up to explain the rules of chess and what each piece does if you're inexperienced! The Chess Hall is located right near the Halloween Pumpkin and behind the Old Gauntlet! Thanks guys! |
Speaking of the new Chess Hall... here's a video featuring it!
|
Wels, I gotta have a game of chess against you one time. Thing is, it's very rare that both of us are on at the same time XD

Also just a notice for everyone: my laptop kicked the bucket about a week or two ago which is why I haven't bee on the server at all (i.e no accessibility.) I'm currently looking at my options in replacing it, but it might be awhile before I can get it replaced. Be nice to Klippy in the meantime, yo. |

Obligatory 1,000 post for the Minecarft Server.
Seriously though...thanks to everyone for being a part of this server. Not to get sappy or anything, I personally never thought the server would blow to this kind of proportion. Videos, events and just an overall great vibe between members is what I've seen come from this server since its creation, so I tip my hat to y'all for creating such an awesome experience for all. Cheers to another 1,000 posts eh? - El/Matt P.S Yes I know this is technically the 1001 post because of the OP, but it's the thought that counts (love y'all <3) |
