That moment when.... Awesome customer service! A fellow SMP2'er send me this, and I think it's mighty generous of him! Which shop this is? Yeah, I'm not going to advertise, nor do I want to create false impressions here ("omg, buy at xxxx and get free stuff!"). But still congratulations to no_thing for making 500k! Guys, things like these make EMC such a great & awesome server to play on!
That moment when... Wasteland discoveries! I'm using locked chests a lot in the wastelands, I think allowing those is one of the best decisions the staff made because it really enhances gameplay. I often use them in mining bases which are further out so that I don't have to worry about frequent visits. So... When checking up on this base (to remove it) I came across this scene. Gotta love it!
Yeah, got to love moments like those! I once had somebody taking a bow for defending themselves, which I didn't mind at all, but also leaving a sign with how much they liked my head.
after 30min trying 2 repair ur tools (lvl 70 to 82 ) u get mad b/c nothing works then some1 asks if u put stuff in ur offhand so now i got 40 gold blocks, 3 ingots & 4 nuggets, 29 stacks of rotten flesh and 9 repaired god picks & 3 god swords ^.^ learn something new everyday
That moment when the Turkeys are lining themselves up When I saw this the first thing I thought was "Sure, I know, I'm fighting it right now", but then the '1' suddenly hit me. Yeah, this isn't the one I'm negotiating with, it's another one close by! Of course I couldn't find it After I had persuaded this turkey to give me its items I started looking for the other. One moment it was still 1 chunk away, then all of a sudden 3 chunks. I think Aikar gave the turkeys player radars just like he gave us turkey radars "Ooh, a shelluser 1 chunk away, I'd better make a run for it!"
You're at work and discover orange Jaffa Cake lids make excellent air hockey pucks when combined with over-bed tables! I love working nights!
That moment when... Visiting the best EMC library/bookstore I've ever seen so far! /v 1912, I strongly suggest to check this one out! So this weekend started normally when my friend Kytula wanted to show me something on SMP1. If I had time of course, which I usually have when I just come online. Yeah... Kytula has been busy and worked up a full SMP1 library which features books, more books, villagers and an atmosphere which truly and honestly reminds me of my visits in plenty of bookshops. A long time ago in a city far, far away (30km)... lol, nah, but one of my favourite things to do when I was younger was to go on a trip to Utrecht (Dutch city) and visit some of the bookstores there. There were some really good ones, and I often spend quite a bit on good quality books. Best part: some of those books I still use today (to some extend). Kytula's place really brought back some of those good memories. How and why? Yeah, you really need to discover this for yourself, no spoilers here (not too much anyway). Featuring (from right to left): Kephras, Hashhog and ShelLuser, some of the prominent authors on the Empire. You got to admit... it has a nice ring to it. And at the risk of sounding arrogant, but... I don't think anyone can deny what these three weirdo's have done on these forums so far Did I ever share that map making (not pixel / map -art but map making) is / was once one of my favourite things to do in Minecraft? C'mon, what's there not to like here? Yah, had to be shared. It seriously was a special moment for me, I had a great time so far. If you do visit and find yourself into the reading wing I ask that you stop, relax, and think at how that area would work for reading in real life. I know, I know... there's no blocks and stuff in real life, but that's also not the point. And once you thought about that.... Wouldn't you agree that this area is a display of sheer brilliance? Doesn't it fit the atmosphere of a library and library area? You'll be the judge of course, I'm just venting here
That moment when.... Llama training! What is one of the new hot features of the upcoming EMC upgrade? Eh, shulker boxes? uhm, yes, well, that too, but what comes after that?! Observer blocks you say? Hmm, fair point, but what cool new feature is next?!! The totem of undying? Now, come on here... Surely there's more you can think off? Bone blocks? No, wait, that's a 1.10 feature. Oh right.. yes, you're right: it IS something new for the Empire. But come on, that's not it either! Polar bears?!! Ok, ok, I'll tell you: Llama's! The mob we all have been waiting for So, a tad more seriously.. One of the reasons we're looking out for Llama's is because it should make it easier for us to get somewhere across land. That is: Aya gets to enjoy the ride (not lazy at all, huh? ) and poor me has to do all the hard work Pulling that lead is hard work! But yeah, we've been practising a little bit. One of the reasons I like the new boat system is because you can bring passengers, and I think Llama's will have their place too when you're travelling longer distances and you want to take turns to go afk (lets be honest; there's always something to enjoy on these forums, like this post! )... Eventually we made it to safer lands. But then a forest got in the way
That moment when... Someone tells you that one of your guides was the main reason why they followed up on something. I know I kept it vague, that's because I'm trying to emphasize on what mostly mattered here for me. But if someone comes up to you and plain out tells you that your guide helped them and/or that it was the key factor for their decision on something... That, in my opinion, is about the greatest compliment you can get. Had to be shared.
Yeah, I noticed that too! I found that really cool!! But I wanted to leave it to you to decide whether to post about it or not.
