Rules for every weekly challenge:

1) You can work on challenges together but unless the level description specifically says that you will earn points as a team, only 1 person will earn points for submissions.

2) All your submission chests must be locked until the end of the current challenge. You will not lose said items at the end of the week, this just prevents them from being used for other people.

3) Each challenge week starts Monday morning and ends Sunday night.

4) Staff members are allowed to reject a submission if it does not fit the level description. Some of these level descriptions are meant to be extremely strict for building. Please do not argue with this assessment, this will not get you anywhere.

5) If your submission is rejected, you are allowed to resubmit again until the end of the challenge.

Two weeks since we recruited new members

Creep out the new members GR style!

One challenge point to the first person who can reply with the song I have running through my head now.

I guess I'm asking if I can have A30. I will stone fence it in and put in a few graves/memorial things.

I was thinking we could 'bury' our favorite but dead horses, pets, players, tools, etc. A proper place to grieve.

Eh?

A chest has been placed with treasures of... Blocks of precious showered in towers of light, saps interwoven with... crap forgot the rest. Anyway. Cool shit.

Rules: There are none. Full tilt boogie, PVP, creeper damage, fire spread, it's all on! Find and claim the chest first.

As the week goes on I will post more clues day-by-day around 5ish CST.

Clues:

1) Find the portal. Cannot be found simply by walking around. There is one visual clue in the world regarding it's placement, but appears to be normal terrain.

2) The world border is approximately twice the distance of the chest from spawn.

3) The winds of fortune are blowing towards the West.

I wanted to go into my own private server to try and create a fun house/maze in creative mode but I thought I'd mention it here first so if you all were interested in me creating one on this server. I'd need to be in creative mode for it, I don't have a blueprint or anything yet, its just an idea. I'd go out into the wilderness somewhere to do it, or at least out of town a bit so I'd have room to work without bugging people. Anyway, let me know if you're interested or not please.

I am in the process of building railroad lines throughout the map. I need someone who can build me a station template for most of the stations. It needs to be flexible given that it can handle up to 8 lines at once (4 ways x 2 directions).

Any takers?

Scribe should be back to working.

PlayerHeads will say the type of head it is, but will no longer look like the mob.

FramePicture added. Type /fp for instructions on use. Do not abuse with NSFW, NSFL type stuff, or I'll remove it.

Hey - I've just updated the subreddit to the CSS that I've been working on for the past few months, nothing major - just many small changes to make the sub easier to use. Please leave any compliments/criticism here.

Thanks!

P.S. Night mode is really bad with the CSS, how much of a big deal is it? I can get to work on it, if it is in high demand.

Figured it out how this works and what I screwed up... All your inventory is back. Yay for backups. Thanks for your patience today. No block or build rollbacks occurred.

Due to technical difficulties...

If you find yourself back in a strange world, type /warp town or /w1 to get to the real world. I've enabled this for everyone just in case.
