  1. So .... I did something to PIGMENTUS nothing too major I don't think. I think I broke the slime block at the back of where the zombie pigman fall and potentially something else. Of course the water came on and moved it ... in an effort to get it back and fix what I messed up I found where the water took things and was disposed of myself .... Anyway! I got a slimeblock back on the piston .. eventually but I think I may have broken something else while doing so but at least the pigman are contained tho I think they can get a block farther back than they could before. If someone who know what its spose to look like there could take a look and sorry for the trouble.

  4. Nothing major but it looks like someone killed the villager shop at Pigmentus. Now there's no one to buy my zombie flesh there! :(

  5. Thanks for letting us know charlie_boi, appreciate it! Anyone want to go get staff and do a grief report for the villager murders? It will be another hour or two till I have access to a computer to get on minecraft.

    Thank you also Jedi and Corrupted, appreciated :)

  7. Bounty, the biggest help would be for you to keep an eye on all the public builds for me please. I don't know why, but there seems to have been a rash of griefings recently. Thankfully it's been mostly annoying kinds of things, but I am wondering if something is in the water this past two weeks :/ I would totally owe you one if you could spend a bit of time doing inspections this weekend. Thank you!

  8. Just fyi, I was traveling back from pigmentus via rail when I became dark on the last rail to the iron farm. Some sea lanters have gone missing, 4 or 5 of them. Also the enderchest at the iron farm is gone plus it looks like someone used wool blocks to get up on top of the iron farm. Don't know what they did or did not do.

  9. Thank you for letting us know! HxCami10 has graciously agreed to fix the missing sea lanterns. I have to go crash. It seems like one person did a whole lot of griefing out there. Several mods came out, and that person was banned. Each time we found something else, it was that same person yet again. Instead of bothering a mod yet again, I'm going to assume it's the same twerp who did a bunch of other damages too.

  10. The Prismarine Bricks over the water thing that lead to the minecart rails have been griefed, along with the signs. But carolmoss and I are checkin' it out. ;)

  12. This is a sorta greedy question :p But I would like a locked chest under sushi drop. They are all of course in use however, of the 12 that are down there, 4 are in use by a DanialBuchinger. I know that the signs say 1 per person or 2 if one is for maintenance. Is this ok that he has 4 or is there something we can do about it? Or even beyond that would it be ok if I made another locked chest area?

  13. Hey Jedi, there are actually 4 locked chest areas out at Sushi Drop. One small one in the rail hallway, one in the "break" room (turn left after you come out of the hallway, south upper wall), and two down bottom on either side of the ladder.

    If we are all out of storage out there again, the bottom storage room on the south side of the east wall has a lower floor marked "future expansion". If you want to expand it yourself, please do so. Chests do need to be spaced properly to be locked (see other chest rooms). Slab and light it up. Please leave some areas of the walls marked with "future expansion" for when it gets filled. The other bottom walls have annoying stuff in them to build around (lava, cave spider spawners, the skellie grinder, etc). East wall is the easiest one for making more storage space.

    Let me know if you want to do it, and if you need any materials. I'm obviously up to my eyeballs with Fell right now. Thank you!

  14. There are chest available in some of the room, I was just being lazy and wanting one near the skelly grinder :p.

    I will just claim one in one of the other rooms, no worries.

  15. Yeah there is one if not 2 cave spider spawners near that room. I forgot about it actually lol. I'm sure there is a way to expand it, but heck if I can remember which way will work and not wind up with a mess. Maybe upwards? Dunno, that area, I'd have to come look and refresh my memory. Thanks!

  16. The snowmen at /wild n got killed again. Also, the stairs to the rail that goes to the grinders needs lighting up. I found a witch on my way down!

  17. I have a suggestion for the rails. I was playing around with auto stations that would fit at the endpoints of your rails (in creative of course :p) and think that something like this auto station, or this more minimal one could work well. I think it would be easy to add and would make it a little more convenient to use. The two examples I showed handle ejecting the player from the minecart and collection the minecart, as well as placing minecarts on the rails. The bigger one is a little more automated, though it's more intrusive aesthetically. The smaller one looks better, but you have to push a button to dispense the cart and start it rolling yourself. Those are just my ideas though, there are should be many other ways to do it too.

  18. Thank you Evesthery. Second time in 2 weeks someone has knocked down the torches there. I may need to install some sea lanterns instead or torches behind glass.

    fyregryph, MrCDub built something similar to that elsewhere. I really like it, and maybe it would cut down on the cart stealing (and all the grinding to make named carts to track them). I don't have time to do anything about it right now, but definitely a good idea for the future. And by future, I mean after Fell is finished and I've recovered from it. So weeks and weeks from now LOL. Thank you!

  19. If you want me to do it I can, it'd be no problem.

  20. I do want you to do it. In about 3 to 4 weeks. I really do not want you to do it right now. I need one more thing going on out there like I need a hole in the head. Thank you!

    I'll elaborate since this has come up with many other people before you, and apparently, details are needed to understand this and why I'm saying "yeah I like it but not right this moment please".
    • A notice has to be posted ahead of time about the work on the rails along with any opening/closing times (no biggie).
    • I have to update the OP on this thread with your name (no biggie).
    • The work cannot leave the rails in any kind of unusable state. (It is just a game, so inconvenience isn't earth shattering. The 10 convo messages I'll get about it and the person who reports it in good faith but mistakenly as a griefing - and then a mod glares at me - are more what I'd rather avoid.)
    • The 20 in-game PMs I'll get about it. And the person who will be mad about it (there's always one...) and the 3 people that also have great ideas and they want to know if they can do them right this instant.
    • The twist that there is no extra room out at Sushi Drop for this structure. Which means we'd need to move where the rail lets off. Whether we move it drastically or just some blocks down would need to be figured out. The area near the Grinders might be tight too. We can't run into the spawner rooms. Rail Wild N start and Pigmentus are easy.
    • 5 more people will now pester me with ideas that I may love, but I really want to finish Fell before even thinking about anything else.

    You people are trying to kill me. :p No, not you in particular fyregryph LOL - this really does come up a lot :)
    Everyone please keep your great ideas till after Fell is done! Thank you! :D
