I saw someone playing it for the first time in one of my classes. He spent 10 minutes digging around in the soil before I told him that he can punch down a tree.

This shit is getting crazy popular.

I heard someone mentioning Minecraft earlier at my university, also. "Have you heard of Garry's Mod? It's kind of like that." "You mean it's a Half-Life mod?"

I had to bite my tongue.

Things are going our way today, it seems.
There's a PHP script in place on the page that automagically tells you whether the server is up or not.
No more constantly updating my signature!

Hey Silly question... Will anyone here answer some questions having to do with online ordering through Private messages so I don't bog this section up?

Anyhow as for here...

So my guess is once the "Team" is put together the game will be put into Beta. Not because it will be anymore particularly finished but to support a whole team.

Man we gotta have like city meetings to discus these things, I am so not ready for a highway,
What are you even building to?

Actually, someone came in and made that really long cobble road; i didnt mean to have a road from my fort to anything. Im just gonna build it out into a bridge spanning that valley, then stop.

Nothing wrong with roads...

I am sort of tired of seeing buildings with dirt floors.

Holy balls check out the map of the Penny Arcade server. The machine from Contact is probably my favorite.

Whoa. I like the underwater city and the orca statue thing.

The moment the lever was pulled, somebody's pet kitten stepped onto the bridge. I read somewhere that if a cat falls more than 11 stories, it instinctively flares its legs out to increase air resistance. This slows it down enough to stick the landing with relatively minor injuries. In Dwarf Fortress, apparently, cats don't do that.

Wow I didn't notice either. I'm pretty sure they were intentionally going for Bioshock and they did a good job.

 Hey jay, would it be possible to have an image in your signature that updates when your server goes online?

I would bet money Andrew has edited things retroactively, except I can't prove anything because it was edited retroactively.

EDIT: Not without getting rid of the banner.
EDIT2: It would also render the server console unreadable, as it logs all connections, including the pings from the webserver to determine which image to load.

Put a small extension on the banner so as to indicate server status?

Basically, do it so the banner and the indicator are part of the same image.

If it were possible to do that easily without it not appearing on any new frames...
I don't know of any way to do that, though.

Also, it would murder the server anyway.
Just go to the page, please.

I can't even see your banner without looking at your profile page.

EDIT: Wait, you have to allow to see images in signatures on this board, don't you? I had it off.
