So this morning things were pretty quiet on smp2. I worked on my shop a little, harvested stuff from my garden, traded with my villagers, the usual... I got into a small chit-chat with Simon and because I had planned to go fishing again I ended up on his residence. Some other guys were also in the mood for a nice fishing trip, I had some rods to spare, so in no time we ended up with quite the party: Semi-live from the EMC spy satellite: the smp2 fishing party (with apologies to Simon for "borrowing" his access codes while he wasn't looking ) But the "problem" with Simon's residence / harbor is that sometimes weird things can happen. Weird, scary, things. Like a shark which popped up out of no where and even started floating outside the water: In the middle; a shark! A floating shark fin; a full EMC special And the problem with these scary things? That some of the senior staff members, like Simon, are no where to be found just when you need 'm the most Anyway, as said, we soon ended up with quite the party and players even discovered sea horses in Simon's lake: Who will catch the sea horse? And just when you thought things got back to normal all of a sudden the floating wither skeleton head showed up: Yikes, no one wanted to catch that fish, that's for sure Of course, in the end all was revealed Simon making sure that we don't litter his beach So yah, another regular morning on SMP2
Has anyone noticed that the moment a mod becomes a senior staff, they also get upgraded to a first class troll?
Forget about trolling; what about plain out "vandalizing"? Well, to some extend anyway... When I first came to the Empire the town spawn area had redstone portals which would lead us to the different worlds, I think we all used 'm at least once. After the update to the town squares those were replaced with much better looking ones, like ours on smp2: smp2 town square / spawn area; reachable by using /town (in town or in a protected area). But have you never wondered where the old stuff went to? Well, I know that a "certain" senior staff member snatched at least some part(s) of it and placed it into his own museum Look for yourself: Just too bad that regular players can't check block history; it would be funny to know when this got placed
Take 2 steps around the pillar It tells you. Thats actually the redstone from old OLD spawn, a certain cow (who will not be named for data protection reasons) accidentally placed a water source block at town spawn during a particularly bad lag sessions resulting from some piston based sand generations I seem to remember, I may have just happened to be on hand to collect said portal at the time, totally not planned...
