Spoiler: Off-Topic (click to show/hide)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grue_(monster)

Grue is from Zork. Anyone else who used the term used it after Zork.

[Greiger]

Yea I nickname when that happens a grue attack.  Because it strikes out of the darkness and you never see what killed you.

[quinnr]

Could we at the very least move off-topic stuff into spoilers? Or even create a Grue Discussion thread?

[Volatar]

Don't worry about that. Off topic arcs are a regular thing on these forums.

[quinnr]

Yeah. But I have OCD'ness.

EDIT: Also, I was in a horrible mood this morning. Stupid Orthodontist appointments.
In actuality, Grues are awesome. They were made so you can't just do a game in the dark because you know it by heart.

[Farce]

I just want to mention that there is a Grue Roguelike.  You lurk in the darkness while adventurers with lamps walk around in the darkness, and you try to sneak up on 'em and eat them.

To sorta be less off-topic I guess, I have not yet been in a B12 Minecraft server.  I don't know what I would build, either.  Maybe a sneaky hole-in-the-ground domain... You can place magma tiles, right?

[quinnr]

Farce, you can if someone approves you to be a builder.

On that note, who wants a servar now? This instant!
If someone asks I'll run it.

[eerr]

maybe in a few weeks?

[quinnr]

I'll be here for the next 4 hours....

Speaking of which, I have been designing a map, with secrets and other interesting things all around, that I plan to host when multiplayer comes out. Question is, would you guys rather play the normal version, where you start in a small, pre-built town, with pre-designed building 'errors' to make crime easier, (Even the large scale, city destroying kind) with a sizable amount of resources in the local area around you, (Except diamond!) or would you rather play in the ruined version, where I burn down the houses, and flood the underground fortress, where you guys can explore the ruins and find (with some skill and luck) 'great treasures?'

[quinnr]

1st one.

Wait...I don't have indev...so sadness.

[Cheeetar]

A small pre-built non-ruined town would be fun.

[Farce]

Both sound cool, but I'll go with the first option, on account of the fact that I cower in my strongholds when adventure comes a-callin'.


Wait, a flooded underground fortress?  That sounds like the best thing ever.  Can we have the first option with ruins nearby?  Cuz' that'd be sweet.

[Dr. Johbson]

Yes, although most of the interesting parts of the map are in the underground fortress.
Now the question is, flooded with water, or lava?

[Cheeetar]

Water, so we have a chance.
