  1. No problem! I am glad to help :)

  2. Iron farm could use an artistic repairer for the iron ingot art above the center cell. I'm not artistic, but you'd probably need black wool, gray wool and maybe light gray wool

  3. I'm just preparing some stone to fix up the area around the kill zone.
    They broke the notice board, full of anti-griefing messages, which is quite ironic.

  4. I slabbed up two DCs worth of tunnels around Slime Time, took me a couple hours. I found two Blizz Ards in the process but there is still at least one more out there that I couldn't find. I found his snow trail but everywhere it led was a deadend. There are still a TON of tunnels that mobs were spawning in that we either need to light up or slab up. I'll work on it when I have more free time.

  5. Thank you Wayne! That work will really improve the spawn rates. Very much appreciated!

  6. I slabbed up more today and sometimes it seems like all I'm doing is finding even more tunnels. Everytime I turn around there is another tunnel :(

    Also Blizz Ards won't stop spawning and they keep spawning in places I can't find them.... which means even more tunnels.

  7. If you want Blizz Ards to stop spawning near you, turn off enraged mob spawning. :) As for the existing ones, I would be glad to come and kill them for you. :)

  8. Iron farm griefed, golems everywhere, water pouring out, golems stacking up and some interesting cobblestone structures everywhere. Just getting staff now. This image pretty much sums it up:
    Upon closer inspection, a whole chunk was removed, the whole west side gone and a huge portion of water way.
    EDIT: All fixed up!

  9. Looks like the iron farm was griefed yet again. The signs placed indicate someone was mad for being muted. They even killed all the snow golems :/


    Doesn't look like the grinders or Sushi Drop were touched, just the iron farm. Though the entrance to the railway is damaged. This was already reported to staff.

  13. Thanks for fixing it everyone, sorry I wasn't online. It's annoying that that's exactly how it was griefed before.
    EDIT: ARGH! I need to re-write all of the signs and rebuild the other stuff around it...

  16. The iron farm right at Wild N is Pep's personal project. Yes, it is public, but it has never been part of "smp8 Public Wild Utilities" (i.e. the builds on the first page of this thread). It's something Pep's did himself for the community. I'm happy to help out with it if I'm about, and I don't mind him using this thread to care for it.

    Fe(11) - the coming soon iron giant - is not a replacement for Pep's farm. It is the smp8 Public Wild Utilities iron farm. Peps has his own future plans I'm sure for his build. His vision is a place that is right outside spawn where players can easily afk and get resources. My vision is a place where players have a little adventure, get to meet other wild adventurers, and as a bonus, they get some great resources. We've got two completely separate goals in mind with how we're doing our builds, how we manage them, etc. Peps is focused on the economy, and he mostly built his farm by himself. I'm focused on having fun, getting out into the wild, meeting other players who are doing the same, and building community. I love inviting anyone and everyone who wants to come out and do a giant group build (trust me - my life would be a thousand times easier if I did NOT do that - try answering all the questions and requests I get - ooh yeah, I'm totally planning on making Cuto do a lot of that this time around muahaha). The drops/xp are the "lure", so I have to make them as fantastic as I can, but they are not my end game :) That's right folks. I've been conning you all this whole time LOL!

    Wait, what do I have to do?
    Answer questions, requests and be your publicity and forums manager?
    Sure!

  18. I know I'm not the one to report this, but there's a dangerous hole in the middle of the nether farm
