Minecraft!

Wipe day Wednesday has happened. Apparently it does a lackluster job when blending between ocean and land. Maybe the next wipe will be more interesting.

Maps - Updated every 15 minutes including claimed regions and player positions. Last updated .

Bot status: recipes granted, greetings and AFK works. It's still crashing randomly. Not sure what's up with that.

Server mods: Armor Statues

My resource pack has been removed in favor of a more "vanilla" experience. If you want it, download it here.

Rules

1. Respect other players. Don't mess with another's build. There's plenty of space, so build several hundred blocks away from others. Don't steal.
2. Don't lag or kill the server. Try to keep your sugar cane farms "reasonable" or even "somewhat silly", but avoid the towering monstrosities on YouTube. Avoid duping.

You're allowed to use client side mods. Freecam? Sure. Auto fish? Sure. Are you admitting that you're unable to get ores any other way and must use x-ray? That's okay too. It's not like you really benefit.

The World Refreshes!

I'm doing this by hand right now, but plan to automate this.

Your bases will be destroyed. There are exactly TWO ways to save them.

1. Mark chunks with a sign that has at least one letter or number on it. This reserves the 16x16 area.
2. Stand in the chunk you want to preserve. This also reserves the 16x16 area.

Preserved chunks (a 16x16 area) will stabilize an area from bedrock to the build limit. Everything outside of the saved chunks will be regenerated weekly. You can see chunk borders by pressing F3 and G simultaneously. Also, in the F3 screen you can see the chunk X and Z coordinates.

Signs can say anything. "DAN!" or "x" or "1337" all work equally well. You can see what chunks are claimed on the map. It updates automatically every 15 minutes and notifies active players.

Why do this?

Variety. When the chunks are removed, the world seed will also change. Your base could be near a swamp one day, and then on the edge of a desert the next. Minecraft will blend the areas outside of the saved chunks so the terrain flows somewhat naturally, which is fantastic. Have your base on the top of a gigantic ice spike or a huge mountain in order to always have a great view, though getting up to the top might be difficult some days.

This also allows new terrain features, such as trial chambers.

You can now strip mine to your heart's content or dig up a desert and be happy that the land isn't scarred forever. Creeper holes will be removed (as long as they are outside of the claimed chunks). Strip mining is refreshed with all new blocks.

It's different from most other servers.

Signs don't require a server mod, so the server can keep running the latest code.

Do you want to play here?

Have someone on the server vouch for you in chat, then email me when they did that. I will look for logs and verify, then whitelist.
