So..has anybody that didn't want a wipe suddenly not mind the idea?

Another idea I'm toying with is:

LinkTart main world stays as is until retail hits.
1.8 world generated but this world will be wiped when 1.9 comes out. The 1.9 world will also be wiped when retail (2.0?) hits.

When retail hits we get the full on wipe. Nothing carried forward at all.

Any thoughts?

That sounds the best idea until retail :)

Items will be transferable between the 1.8 map and the current map so no issues there. Then come the full world reset for retail (if that happens) I'll upload the current map to anyhub etc so you can all download it and use it as your single player map :)
 
@FT yes i am converted to the lets wipe the map :D
i think after playing the test of 1.8 for such a short time and finding it much better and a great new system. That it is worth the loss.

in regards the world map. I too can host the file for download for
a while from one of my sites for players to get. You have the ftp
setting or if not i can send them to you again.

Currently all i am going to be doing for now is stop the work on my mega build
no point in wasting time on it now. But will be testing a lot of ideas for the new map. ESP for when we start working on the crystal maze :D

If we end up on map V2 i take that it will be a restart all over again?
i know it is only 2/3 months away but dont want to invest huge amount of time on something that wont be on the new system at release.

see it only took waiting for 1.8 to get played to see how players would react to a wipe :P
 
Wipe the lot I say, and do it in the evening, so we can all get on and have a laugh running around trying to survive the first few nights. :D

In regards to waiting for retail, is there an ETA for that yet? I remember notch mentioning that after 1.9 would be 1.10, not 2.0 a while ago.

rofl tested nether back to 1:8 again :)
With regards to the pinapp the only thing I had problem with was much better alternatives and the author of the plugin seemed like an jerk.

Basically what I suggested in another post so I like that idea. Due to bother 1.8 and 1.9 needing new maps. as for retail = no items or builds = great in my eyes.

Looking at the sample 1.8 carto in the other minecraft thread there does seem to be considerably more water/ocean than previously, for want of a better word the map looks "blotchy". If this is going to be the same in the final 1.8/1.9/2.0 or whatever would it be better to have a slightly bigger map than we have now so people have the same overall amount of land to colonize? Also will the new map still have an emergency unstable land zone for new mats or is 2.0 going to be the *final" patch and a no more new stuff ever sort of deal?
 
whats gonna be the rule on the stronghold also?

As far as im aware there will only be one per map so hopefully this wont be claimable by the first person to find it.

It like to see it accessable by anyone given its rarity.

Havin it become freddies home just doesnt sound right :p
 
It certainly would be nice if people didn't rip apart or burn down strongholds or npc villages, but I'm not sure how much admin time could be 'dedicated' to upholding that.
