  1. Another misc update today!

    The past 2 days has been amazing. Extreme growth for EMC!

    We hit back to 250+ online :D

    But one thing I learned was that a single server cant take an entire day of new members, so I have now implemented automatic rotation of the default server, where it will pick a random server every 30 minutes that has 20 or more open Residences.

    To see the current default server, simply visit: http://empireminecraft.com/servers/

  5. Thank you. I think servers will now have elbow room. This is what SMP2 was like recently:

  10. Where on the page you linked does it show the default server? I'm not seeing it

    Also, since when does /p <start typing a name then press tab> show a list of every player starting with what you've typed? I could have sworn just earlier it only let you tab complete for online players. Not sure I like that "Feature/bug" :v

    For example: Type "/p the" and press tab and yo get a crap ton of names starting with the, rather than players online starting with the

  11. It defaults to players online first, then to offline players.

  12. it only pulls from the "database" if you type more than three characters. So if I wanted to /p your name and you were online I could do /p ro and your name would enfilled in. If you do more than 3 characters it will pull from the player database

  15. Good call. It was a bit confusing when I first joined as there were no open plots on server 1. This should help people get settled a little more easily.

  20. I think the new growth is excellent, just shows what a little effort and some advertising can do.
