I'll be joining you on Saturday. Do you have an approximate time?

I'm thinking sometime in the 6-8pm PST range. Everyone I've spoken to seems to prefer "later than earlier" but I think we have a couple people on the east coat, so if we start getting into the 9pm range, that's midnight for them. Most of us who are on regularly tend to be on for hours at a time, so pretty much the plan is to log on sometime in the early evening and do a headcount, then post to the thread periodically with status updates. Once we have enough and after a "reasonable" amount of time has passed from our "hey guys, we'll be going soon" posts here, we'll go.

Note that once we leave, it will probably be over fast. We not infrequently have as many as 5 people on at a time on weekends, even without special events like this. If we end up with say...8, the dragon might be dead within 10-15 minutes of our arrival in the end.

   I plan to have 5 bows of pow5 un3 ready by then with 3 already completed at the moment and a couple more well underway. I suspect that even if we get 8 people I will be able to provide at least pow4 to everyone. Combine that with a str1 8min pot we should be able to take the dragon down in no time at all. I suspect the hard part will not be the killing (though to be fare it never has been, the dragon has always been more of a tedious task) but rather getting it the right place so we have a decently placed way back.

So long as people stop shooting when we say stop, it shouldn't be a problem. Getting the dragon where you want him isn't difficult. He swoops at players. So all we have to do is stand where we want the exit portal generated and let him come to us, then whack him with swords. We have beds in the portal room, so people can set their spawn point and come right back through when they die.

[LordBucket]

Would people stop raiding my base for materials, please?

I realize I've often let people come and get specific things when they've asked first, but today is now the third time in the past week I've gone looking for something and found that, oh look...somebody decided to to rob me.

If anybody would like to come forward and let me know why all but one of my trade villagers are mysteriously gone since yesterday, that would be good too, thanks. Some of those villagers are not easily replaceable.

Do y'all need a teamspeak server to use? I'm kinda trying to stress test mine and if it holds up I don't mind if y'all use it for your servers. I might even join y'all.

[WillowLuman]

Addendum: The autofarm for wheat is still good if you replant.

Remember that there's public facilities for many things in the NPC village and the iron farm just down the road in either direction from LB's base. There's also a forest at the end of the desert, just outside the desert portal.

EDIT: Was building a watervator when a creeper blew up inside it. I think I'll call it a night, it will be painful to fix. If anyone could donate some doors and glass I'd be grateful.

Since the dragon run was announced, I was thinking of suggesting a mumble server... Mumble seems to be good & popular (also free?), and having a small footprint on memory & runtime.  If you've already got a teamspeak server set up, I'm willing to help in giving it a shakedown.

You ever gonna come back and build some more?  I came across your barely-cut-in foundation while mapping yesterday.

I can't remember if I ever actually joined you guys on Minecraft... I know I played Starmade for a while with you all. Also yeah I already have a TS server set up, though it has a max of 32 slots until I get sent my non for profit key.

[aristabulus]

I am the derp...  I was thinking of Mech's spot (discussed @ bottom of page 13).  Wrong M name. 

32 is way more than the dragon party will likely pull.    Will you be making the TS server available hereafter for people in this thread, or just for the dragon party?

[Mono124]

Took out the IP because of spammers. PM me for it.

Ok, I'm getting an itch to play minecraft online and am hoping that forsaken has a server that includes the mods that lets you wear hats, lets you change into things you kill, and has at least one magic mod like ars magica or thaumcraft. And pam's harvest craft......and about a dozen other things but I don't want to be too picky 

I was reading the first page but my memory tells me that forsaking has a LOT of servers. Are those the only ones?

Forsaken has two Minecraft servers: a vanilla on 1.7.10 and an ad-hoc magecraft pack on 1.7.2.  The magecraft server includes thaumcraft but not ars magica.

Spoiler: The Magecraft list (click to show/hide)

...
So far:

Biblioctraft
Blood Magic
Botania
Thaumcraft
Thaumic Tinkerer
Forbidden Magic
Hardcore Ender Expansion
Jabba
Natura (was misbehaving)
Twilight Forest
Witchery
...

Akylon also has a modded server, based on FTB Monster, and his own thread.

teamspeak

I'm in favor of using teamspeak if we can get everyone on. If we mix voice with text, we have to type everything anyway, and it means that when we say "STOP! Don't shoot at the dragon any more!" the one guy not in chat will kill him anyway.


In other news, who had the unfortunate encounter with a zombie pigman? I just liberated a diamond sword and pants from a pigman I found behind a wall.

I don't have hats or morph.  I don't think Morph is updated yet, and I know Ars isn't updated to 1.7.x yet. Dunno about pam's... I do have thaumcraft though on my magecraft server.

A quick plug, if that's ok? I'm a admin on a whitelist resonant rise server, not sure if we have morph(I never used it) but we have hats! and arsmagica 2 and throumcraft and bloodmagic

Its a bit poor taste to come to someone else's server thread to advertise your own, but whatever.
