Don't touch the redpower stuff in the gem chest please (The gems are fine, obv)
I'm working on automation, need a diamond saw so I can make filters an' shit.

[ank]

It's my fault for making a setup that is able to explode,
so don't beat yourself up about it.

Happy to see the old fort migrating to the Terra Nova server!

I made a Coke Oven behind the tree farm. It is the big 3*3*3 hollow yellowish brick structure. It works very slowly, but turns wood into charcoal and coal into "coal coke" with DOUBLE the fuel value. Both of these operations sometimes produce creosote oil as a byproduct, which is needed for some Railcraft items. When the tree farm is rebuilt, this will probably help get more bang-per-buck. With enough bricks and sand, I can make more; we just don't have any non-submerged clay nearby.

I found some caverns connecting to my mineshaft and I think there was an abandoned mine too.

Somewhere in the caverns is a 2*2 hole in the ocean floor--I set myself a waypoint for this "escape tunnel". Should I plug it as a security risk or leave it in?

I tried to make a waterless mob drop trap (citizens can't empty buckets), but I think I failed miserably. If anyone wants to use some minecart dispensers, minecarts, normal rails (already there when I arrived, probably salvaged from abandoned mines) and powered wooden rails (the first products of the creosote from the coke oven), just ask me. Or find the staircase I used for mining, and climb up the shaft at the end to reach them-- the mechanism there was supposed to collect passengers and throw them down the mine shaft; where they can be easily dispached.

Oh, and I only have access to the metals chest, so if strange things show up there, sorry; I just didn't want to put them in an open chest.

Did the server go down?
EDIT: up again

[Meta]

I joined the server. Can one of you mail me (Maunoir) the coordinates? And maybe invite me in the B12 group if needed.
Thanks in advance.

RED ALERT! "Bendicut" Killed me and stole my stuff at the bottom of our mines. Said "nice house". He used what looked like an emerald sword. Now he has my shotgun. Shoot on sight, consider armed and dangerous.
 
EDIT: Tehehe... he killed me in the mob farm. The farm sucked up all the ammo!\
 
EDIT2: Hah! the machine picked up the gun too! So assume he fights melee

[The Merchant Of Menace]

Stash the upgrades from the machines in one of the protected chests before he nicks 'em

[Matz05]

Err... what upgrades?

[Matz05]

I chased off iiexpertii2 and aBeastAtCOD from the island, they were exploring together and seemed nicebut I didn't want a repeat of the Bendicut incident.
 
Bendicut says I shot first. I dunno, he snuck up behind me with an emerald sword (like, directly adjacent) and I flipped to shotgun and loaded it while twisting to face him. I'm not sure what happened.
 
EDIT: so what is our policy on visitors? I'm gonna put a "SECURE AREA: TRESSPASSERS WILL BE:" sign next to the stairwell in the cabin and various other signs by it saying "shot", "stabbed", "poisoned" "drowned" "incinerated", etc.

[Matz05]

EDIT2: To be honest, I don't even know if he stole anything. I got a rather large jumble of stuff back from the trap and I'm still sorting it. My inventory was a mess when I died...
 
Edit3 (actually edit 1 of a double-post, sorry): I think his mines intersected ours, thats how he ended up at the bottom of my mineshaft.

[ank]

i am setting up password protected computers at both entrance to the mine and the surface.
the password will of course be "bay12"

Problem = Solved

[The Merchant Of Menace]

Computers are disabled

[ank]

thats sad...
well, i'll jsut make one way doors then
that will fix it... we will just have to let new members in

[Matz05]

Apparently we were just attacked. Bendicut and.. what was his name?
 
Permission to stock the armoury with shotguns and iron melee weapons? I need gunpowder, so ammunition will be tight.
 
EDIT: Making cheap weapons and armour. Ammo is in the place where it can cause the most FUN -- remember, the pressure plate closest to the door opens it. Don't touch the other one.

EDIT2: The shotgun shell in the... ammo storage... is missing. Either someone is using a shotgun or somebody blew themseves away! I didn't see any items lying around, so I guess people are using the armoury; YAY! I'm working on bronze armour right now. slow going because the power supply is low again.

[Matz05]

Ralphedelominus  IS ATTACKING~
 
EDIT: I heard footstepps, called out, got no "no one hears" message, yelled "Identify yourself, "Stop or I'll shoot", etc. and thenn went lokking
 
I climbed into the cabin, heard footsteps below and saw a nametag, he was opening all the chests
I snuck up and shot him, but he had full quantumsuit and killed me
 
Edit: EphemeralKap is with him, also full quantumsuit. They have at least one nanosabre between them an have tunneled into the coke oven room. They demanded "the coal I took" or that we took -- I'm not sure. They have my shotgun.
 
Edit again: Then there was a message "May death rain upon them" or "Let death rain upon them" or something like that, I heard MASSIVE explosions, several people died of exploding/complained of damage, lag around the armoury cleared up, and then the server ?crashed?
 
Edit the third: There is an "abandoned mineshaft" and the remnents of redstone (at least one repeater, maybe a breaching charge?) behind the place they seemed to attack from (in the coke oven room). Should we try to find where they live?
 
EDIT YET AGAIN: Its a cannon...
 
Edit squared: I "left thier enterance" as it was... but mined it. Watch your step near the coke oven. The mine should be easy to see from this side but not the other.
