I had a fully-metal-armored soldier wielding two iron shields get kicked into a lake. Days later, she emerged, having taught herself to swim with no previous experience. She proceeded to turn a presumably surprised goblin archer into a giant bruise with shield bashes, drop a few one-liners about weaklings, and went to the tavern to get plastered.

The subplots will be around the outer area and through tunnels, I should have specified. The initial 20 x 20 will just be a central area that all of the plots and facilities connect to.

MineGrumps is only lightly modded. It just has anti-griefing stuff like claims, Lockette and item protection.
Pack it full with villagers, then use the spawned iron golems to make infinite iron.

Of course, everyone knows drowning is the best way to learn to swim.

I fixed what was initially appeared to be a very scary computer problem!

Admittedly, I just removed and remounted the hard drive, but that was surprisingly difficult (I had to remove the keyboard and palm rest to get to the hard drive).

Real Life? Isn't that the new free MMORPG?
Many monthly fees, massive fully open game world, super duper NPC AI, billions of mobs, fully PvP and the best graphics known to man? Or am I thinking of outside?

Not outside (I was in an indoor area at the time).

But yes, Real Life.

I don't think there are any NPCs, by the way, I think it's just all players!

Also, don't forget the super fast loading times!

Although for best performances players have to "sleep" for a few hours...

I guess that the shields were used as flotation devices.

I mean, you spread your arms(and legs) out as much as possible, and the wide surface area of the shields provides extra bouyancy.

bouyancy is the volume of water displaced. Holding a shield flat won't increase it's volume.

bouyancy is the volume of water displaced. Holding a shield flat won't increase it's volume.
It'll make you float if it's curved. Once it's displaced its own volume in water it will then proceed to float.

There's already an iron farm on the server, no point having two. :P

The town that has the iron farm also has a stupidly massive item sorting machine. Look at this thing:

They say it's at about 10% capacity. Which probably means there are several chests full of most stackables in the game.

She was 2-Z under the water!!! Just sitting there, like an alligator waiting for the movement of its prey. Also, she is not a vampire. I checked that.

The one pet-peeve I have about this "life" game is the character creator. You have no control. seriously? Huge oversight by the developer.

And not to mention the microtransactions. I mean, you just want that one thing, but to get it for free you need to go full wildlife, build the required facilities by hand from wood and stuff, then aquire the materials (V. hard without microtransactions) to make it.
