So, do we have a final date for a changeover?

flash the other VC have been discussing it on the side. My last proposal for the whole shindig was to do as follows

10/24- final day for changes to be saved on current edition of map for download.
10/25- 1.7 official launch day.
10/26- destruction day (tentative)
10/27- sunday new map is started

when finding a new map we tend to try a few seeds until the starting point is more hospitable. There will be no extra handouts via /give commands and everything at spawn will be via donations of items and work.

I will probably try to work on spawn the first few days.

I also think i saw something in the change log about having a 64x64 server icon that someone might want to work on.

A personal request but can we spawn on a seed near a couple plains or Savanna biomes. Horses might be a more important feature this time since some adventuring villuns will have to find where different biome groups (cold and warm biomes are pretty seperate from one another now) and rare biomes which some villuns may want to settle in.

Also do you think we could make an automated item sorter this time around?

If you want to build something on the Vanilla server, lead the way! People who are interested will likely join in to help out. I'm not even sure what an automatic sorting system would be in Vanilla - been a long while since I played it, and I'm behind!

Personally, I don't want to start on Plains or Savannah biomes - I like my trees! I'd like to see it just be random - if it's that, fine, if something else, fine; so long as we aren't in lava or an ocean when popping in.

I'll try my hand at some icon candidates tonight, and see if people like any of 'em.

I meant near them not nessisarily at them. The way biome generation works in 1.7 is that certain biomes are grouped and can only spawn next to each other in a nearby group. So if spawn is in a cold biome, it'll be a while before you find a plains or savannah biome but if your in a forest (temperate), or desert (dry) biome, plains and Savannah should be nearby. Also Savannah has trees :P. Only reason I asked is because they're testing several seeds.


I'll probably make this item sorter then once after some other key community builds are done (nether hub, farms, etc):

It'll take a lot of resources but it'll be so cool once it's done.

OK, as Giz outlined above, we are going to have a destruction night event on Saturday at 8 PM Central. Spawn will be stocked with plenty of TNT for everyone to use.

PLEASE DO NOT DESTROY ANYTHING BEFORE SATURDAY EVENING.

DO NOT EVER DESTROY ANYTHING THAT IS NOT YOURS UNLESS THE OWNER GIVES YOU PERMISSION.


The map will be archived Friday night and then made available for those who want to continue playing the world in single player.

We will either launch the new 1.7 world late Saturday night or Sunday morning, this part is not confirmed yet.

Let us know if you have any questions.

I've got a few questions pertaining to destruction day:

Can we have a cow punching party?
Can I have a pet pig named Billy?
Can we eat cake?
Can we plant rose bushes and super tall grass everywhere?
Will there be fire?
Will it be fun?
Can we eat bacon?
Can we make a disco floor?
Will there be milk and cookies?
Can I set up a Milk and cookies stand next to the disco floor?
Will we all die at the end?

If you don't have TeamSpeak installed now would be a good time to get that fixed. We'll be in the TS Minecraft channel and meet on the Ville logo in spawn at 8 PM Central tonight.



If we finish destruction quick enough we might even have a surprise tonight. Like a new map or something like that... :D
