I think I am generally satisfied with the data fidelity of the update. So can hopefully start focusing on the update itself. Figure out what is actually new. :) Sep 25, 2024

        Timeline on that? That way, I know when to retrieve my gold blocks and beacon that I'm using to mine quickly.

        There will be a waste warning at least 2 weeks before the update. I know that can seem like forever... Just the way it is.

        I figured something along those lines. Thanks, though! That doesn't feel like forever to me; that's actually short enough for me to take seriously but long enough that I'd almost certainly have a chance to retrieve any beacon and iron/gold/emerald blocks I may be using, barring unforeseen technical issues.

      Doing what is right, doesn't always mean doing what is fair.

        It had to do with how people treat others. Golden Rule type of thinking.
        It's hard to do the right thing (morally)

        I guess it heavily depends on the definition of "right" and "fair". For someone if it is not fair it is not right, but for others that does not hold.

        Well, that's what is nice about avoiding absolutes.

        When another person wrongs you, it may be fair to retaliate back. But the morally correct response is sometimes to bite your tongue, to be the person to end the back and forth. Especially when you know the other does not have the emotional maturity to control their actions.

        Again, my situation was High Schoolers. Though it sure sounds like some adult in the world

      Making some steady progress. This update is turning out to be on the work level of going from 1.12 to 1.15. Making progress, but not there yet. Keep knocking problems out of the way

        I take it that you decided not to just completely discard the converter stuff?

        Kind of. That is still one on my backlog to look at. I've still got issues with data conversion outside of the things I've mentioned.

      Got ViaVersion out for the latest MC version. It is going to be several weeks before 1.21 - I'll give everyone a heads up when we have a better idea when.

        So we can now log in using 1.21, but the features still aren't on EMC?

        We are still running 1.20.4. (no 1.21 features)
        But people can now connect with up to 1.21

      Just FYI, you accidentally broke the pmdev.emc.gs link when adding MrSocks75 to it. It says %20MrSocks75& in the link URL, and an error message pops up saying, "The requested user could not be found." If I edit out the %20 and & in the URL, it works. I mean, I don't need anything right now, but sometimes I check these links without actually starting a private convo out of curiosity and just noticed it.

      It's been brought to my attention that one of the survey questions was written confusingly. "EMC Game Servers" - that is referring to all of our Minecraft servers, not just /games. Sorry for the confusion. You can still fill out the survey. https://forms.gle/FLcA1pWaNo1uBHvb9

        No need to refill out the survey. If you feel like that drastically changes your answers, you can just send me a message.

      Tried to put out a ViaVersion update for the servers tonight. It was unsuccessful. I will have to do some digging to figure out why.

      Hey all. The build team is working on a spring event - it isn't quite ready for Easter weekend. Similarly, I didn't come up with any fools for today. Everything I thought of was just too evil or annoying or too much work... Sharing a couple of those evil ideas in the comment. :)

        I kinda exhausted my ideas with Fred without significant work on it. :(

        There was an idea floated in Discord of a Permanent Derelict Voucher. haha. (Only as a joke) But the bad thing about the internet is when jokes are not observed during April 1st - causing confusion and upsetedness.

      Hey everyone! My school year has been extremely busy. Tomorrow is last day of semester - then on break for a couple weeks. Then can get holidays sorted. And announce other EMC happenings that have been on the backburner for a while... Just have needed more nonexistent time...
