New server, I am guessing? If this is at night, I can fill the position of the pack mule. Net isn't very nice to me in the day however, so, yeah.

I would want guard but won't be on till sunday now (actually, I can make thursday/friday night (GMT)).

[x2yzh9]

So what about Thursday night?

[RichardTheWizard]

What server do most guys play on now? I'm only asking out of interest really.

[PTTG??]

The main server is active, but lately there's been a lot of work on the Eternal Darkness server.

[dragonshardz]

...We should totally mod in the enemies and insanity effects from Eternal Darkness.

[RichardTheWizard]

Sounds like a good idea Naxza, by the way when I went onto the Eternal Darkness server I went into the underground bit with the lava pool and aboveground building.
I followed the tunnels a bit and found a big chunk exposed to ground and zombies were invading. I would have plugged it but I had no materials on me.

48ish z levels isn't that horribly much to work with, to be honest.

[x2yzh9]

Perhaps seven, then? It's not a whole lot, no, but some form of accessible network system is almost necessary to get to any other place.

Seven sounds like a good compromise. I vote seven

[Leonon]

By bottom 7 do you mean Z7 and lower? The lowest that's consistently tunnelable is Z6, below that bedrock shows up. Kind of funny to say it can go up one higher.

You could always allow above ground construction so long as it's cobblestone/smooth stone and doesn't let light out, or just doesn't let light out.

That's 12:30 over here =(

The spawn camp has seen some major improvement - the major thing is that the main area containing AXIS MUNDI has been mined out and a concept of the Grand Stair has been built. There's still a lot left to do:

-Mining out the dome at the top.
-Mining out the bowl at the bottom.
-Mining out the lava channels at the other 3 landings
      -These will run from the top to the bottom of the camp, connecting at the top of the dome and the bottom of the bowl
-Replacing AXIS MUNDI (the dirt crosshairs) with either iron or smoothstone
-Replacing the dirt, gravel, and cobblestone with smoothstone

Future plans are to line the bowl with obsidian (allowing channels for the lava to meet in the center) and replacing the current floor level with glass, as well as making a 5x5 or so sphere out of lanternite surrounding the center of AXIS MUNDI.

I'll post plans in a short while.

Yea, I fear we'll have problems with timezones regardless of what date and time we pick. I'm just doing it that way so the majority of people can be comfortable, and the one or two people who have to stay up-Sorry about that, but it's rather inevitable.

Edit:Mining Colony Zeta is setup! Hooray
