Blacraft

[Bla]

Made Staturday Satistics, here they are for Spawntown.

I might come online again, I plan to play Blacraft a lot today, if I can find something to do.

Things I want to do:

Make very large birch farm. Possibly eastern Epicland at Cow Cliffs.
Make more sheep farms at Sheep Plains, blue sheeps are needed.
Gather sillypads for sugarfarms.

Also, I'm considering making some rules on collective storages. Would people accept if we were only allowed to store certain items in them? Currently I'm thinking all the items mentioned on the below chart plus wool.
Some of the other rare items we could maybe store in a way similar to the powertool library, where they're locked up but still publicly available on request, but where I don't have to spend my time graphing them every Saturday and where it's people's own duty to show how much is available.

Also, I'm considering a law which would make the means of production in UBSR public, (farms, factories), would that be ok? So if I need 9001 cacti I don't need to build my own cactus farm or ask Mudkipz, I can just go to his farm and gather them.
Of course, you could still have rules like replanting trees on tree farms or not killing sheep in sheep farms.

can plaidanian chests not be included in these fancy chest rules
i'd rather that i have 50% rare materials in my private chest(s) and 50% in my publicly available chests except diamond with 75% in private chest

[Bla]

As long as they aren't locked.

[Darvince]

Why would my private chest be not locked? I don't trust certain people enough.

[Bla]

Because they're not meant to be entirely private if you're a part of UBSR unless it's temporary for something like a construction project.

If you need your stuff to be secure the chests should be considered collective storage property, so I can graph them and we can vote on how to spend them.

[Darvince]

ok then i declare darland to be the nation or w/e of himalia
inb4 must write the same insane amount of rules as usbr has

i just think that you'll vote all my stuff away to quontex, who has 2048 diamonds for some reason

[Bla]

ok then i declare darland to be the nation or w/e of himalia

Ok, but remember you are no longer allowed to take items from chests in UBSR.
There's no point in us sharing our stuff with you when you won't share yours with us.

inb4 must write the same insane amount of rules as usbr has

You don't need to write any, and how is the amount of rules in UBSR "insane"?
The economic rules are fairly simple, we share all of our items with each other, and if you need some items locked up so you don't just lose them, they must still be under democratic control. That is the basic principle which is just written more specifically to avoid the possibility of it being interpreted in multiple ways.

i just think that you'll vote all my stuff away to quontex

Quontex isn't in UBSR, and polls are public, so you can vote against it, and if the poll is as ridiculous as me trying to take all the items you've worked on gathering away and giving them to some random person, you would assume that the majority would vote against it.
Idk if you've noticed, but so far our democratic management of collective storage contents has worked fine and nobody has abused it to exclude someone.

, who has 2048 diamonds for some reason

Where, also keep this in PM if you suspect people are cheating.

[Darvince]

i was jking it was a reference to when i used to think he was cheating because i noticed something like half a large chest filled with diamonds

Kol just traded 1840 paper for 230 emeralds.

New world map: http://zoom.it/s9H8

Oddly, it doesn't really show the canopies of the jungle trees in Oasis City, or maybe that's because they're almost the same color as the grass.

[Bla]

The rendering program is outdated and can't show any blocks which were implemented after the update that increased the world height. It can't show any blocks above 128m either.

[smjjames]

3 block falls do damage now this is new.

Did a plugin get updated recently? I think this may be a bug of some kind, and I can confirm that I'm seeing this as well

[Bla]

I don't see any reason to think it has anything to do with plugins. Have you tested in singleplayer or on another server that it's not just a Minecraft update?

I did a quick test in SP and it does seem to be MC itself.

[Darvince]

bla shud update his mapping software

bla shud update his mapping software

I have looked for updates to the mapping software many times, but the project seems to have been abandoned (Cartograph G) and I haven't been able to find any good new mapping software.

Also, I built a second, larger birch farm near Pine Hill.

Edit: Built a new cargo route, which I plan to extend to Pine Hill some time.

[blotz]

wut the smaller red dots?

[Bla]

They're stations. Spawntown Public Storage, Spawntown Forge, Spawntown Claying Grounds, Spawntown Dining Hall and Fort Kolkhoz.

So the infrastructure for brick production and wheat/bread transport should be complete.

i use fiahowl's face to get around, it gets a bit muddy.

[blotz]

cool. fort Kolkhoz looks extra cool from the map view.

[Bla]

I use above ground rails and my massive networks of wide roads

The cargo route is only on y=40 on the way to the forge, it goes up and it will become elevated rails outside Fort Kolkhoz.

bla i was on my skyrail when the minecart suddenly moved horizontally 1 block while in a tunnel and i suffocated in sand. the items seemed to have dissapeared; could you respawn for me the 3 iron shovels, 1 half-used diamond pick, 1 bed, 1 stack + 52 bread, 1 wool, and clock for me? also 12 iron (i don't know if you can spawn half dead iron armor).

davidjl123 is on

also food consumption seems increased; i went through a stack of bread in one hour of gameplay and i wasn't exploring or anything.

[smjjames]

Yeah, the bread doesn't last quite as long as it used to.

[Citation needed]

When did the change happen and what evidence do you have. I think we make a lot of speculation about things which just seem different but we haven't actually measured or looked up, and blame them on random things we might associate with it like updates or plugins. It annoys me a bit. It just doesn't seem like a rational way of dealing with things.

I won't try to solve a problem or bug if there's no evidence showing that there even is any change, not that you called this a bug or asked me to fix it or anything. I just mean in general more Scientific method would amuse the kolkats.

bla why are you still awake! its way past your bed time.
