*** Official OcUK Minecraft Server - Discussion and Rules ***

I just watched "The Race" video you made toString - really awesome :)

Awesome event too. Looks really fun. All the events look awesome tbh :p Almost enough to tempt me into playing again.
 
One thing I wanted to ask about the events. Do you guys and gals care about the theme or story linked with monster bashes?

We try to add them to make them feel original rather than "hey, its the night we kill mobs" and it helps with the wording on the website plus the theme of the Monster Bash build. But it does have its flaws in explain the concept of a monster bash, takes a bit more admin work and confusion between players.

Would you rather us continue in this format trying to refine and improve it or just run the event with a set a rules laid out and a little theme to go with the monster bash build.

We've already got a good idea for next time thanks to the people in mumble ;)

If people want a theme/background I'd be happy to write a story around it, (Family friendly of course!) as I do believe I'm fairly good at writing.
 
I think a theme/story works because it allows you to put restrictions on the game outside of the normal physical rules (such as having a testificate hostage who you have to save)

If possible it would be great if we had a battle like that and had to build a castle from scratch, start off small and after every wave admins unlock another building material chest with new tools and mats

and then slowly but surely bombard us with everything you can throw at us :P
 
I have thoroughly enjoyed the events at the weekend, thanks goes to the Admins for making it happen:)

as for themes/story, personally i wouldnt say it was necessary, however it is a nice touch, and does add to the fun factor and general feel, and definitely from the player side worthwhile:D
 
I'd like to see events be more frequent, as so far they have all been run every time I've been at my local LAN! :P

That said, I did miss the oppertunity to take part in the monster bash one on account of being a good sport and helping Trix blow up parts of the landscape :D
 
Both WilliamTM and I are giving away our spawn plots. Thread on Linktart forums for full information. Everyone who does not already have a plot is eligible to enter. Winners will be picked at random on 2nd March.
 
RoboSprog asked for a little help with some wood, and then I decided to help digging a hole whilst I was there, this quickly became a mini community project with help from a few people. I then thought that his tree wasn't looking Pandorian enough.

So I introduced him to the wonders of Mycelium and its magic ability to take over an area. I think it's quite the improvement now.

In keeping with my minimum wage approach to everything on the server, I accepted some stone bricks for my future farm house.

Disclaimer, it isn't finished yet. Mycelium growth is kinda time consuming.
 
Thanks to Zero a ton, never knew Mycelium looked that nice.
I'd also like to say thanks to Scotsmoose for helping me mine - sure, I paid you both but you still helped me out a ton in ways you didn't have too.

Progress is going fairly well for anyone who cares, and tree farm should be finished very soon now. (100x100)
