  1. Yeah, we may as well just do something simple to finish off this revision, such as chuck in a few random (temporary) plugins rather than have the usual Chaos, or perhaps we can just do Chaos if that's less taxing on the Techs. The rev really is dead, there is no PvP at all for 80% of the day. Kinda hard to feel like you're having fun when all you're doing is bouncing around spawn hoping for someone to log on.

  2. Chaos will become stale too, and you'll ask for the next rev to come sooner. If that isn't substantially different from this rev it'll become stale too, and have low player numbers. Maybe it would be better to enjoy this part of the rev, and see if people stick around because you're enjoying it?

    As DJT832 said, the current Survival revision is about as stale as it's going to get. Chaos barely ever gets stale, I can only think of two times that's happened and they were both due to prolonged revs. Chaos is great fun, all of us house a griefer in our hearts. There aren't many ways to spruce up the current revision of Survival,  so we may as well look into ending it - we've generally reached our target for how long we'd like each revision to be, which is about 2.5 months. 

    Also, is it possible to get an admin's word on Ridiculous' idea?

  3. I believe the policy for editing other people's pages is to make sure that you're actually allowed to and have been given permission by the respective owner.
    As for IP adresses, they do not need to be logged and I'd prefer that to be gone. 

  4. That's impossible. If you strip mine, you've got as much of a chance to find diamonds as anyone else. I don't know how plumping ores would affect anything more than the XP plump and enchantism have already. Ores are easy to get at the moment, and we've already tried to make the grind to get armour easier. It's not positively impacted PvP levels at this point, so I think we might be barking up the wrong tree there.

    I guess I put that the wrong way - I generally meant to emphasize that many of us don't have the time/patience to go mining for extended periods of time.

  5. Yea but this is why Faction are good. You are not alone and with prot II MAX its way easier to have god stuff.

    I believe that plumped ores, coupled with less powerful enchanting abilities would lead to more clan/Faction styled PvP. 

    Going out onto the streets alone with a set of Protection II Diamond Armor would be a stupid idea, because 3 decent fighters running around in Iron have a decent chance of taking you down. As a result, players would be more inclined to roam in packs. Once we eventually die, we can go mining for a few minutes, stumble upon a branch of Diamond, make a suit, grab a sword, get food, pearls, pots and jump back onto the roads; however most players simply don't want to do this. Why?

    Because most of us are terrible at finding Diamonds. Plumped ores would give us a much better chance of actually getting any Dia in the first place. 

    It'd be nice to try out a revision with less powerful enchants, especially considering we're trying to make some drastic changes at this point. Weapons/armor enchants would need to be toned down a few notches, such as Sharpness III being a top-tier enchant for swords, Protection II being top-tier for armor, etc. 

    What I would hate to see, however, is the nerfing of tools such as Pickaxes, Shovels etc. If anything, I actually wouldn't mind them being a little more powerful. 

    Fortune IV enchantments on picks would surely mean more Diamonds, which in turn leads to more suits/swords, which then leads to PvP. Personally, I see a lot of people saying that they have one godsword but they're too afraid to bust it out - the same goes for suits. The reason there's such a small amount of PvP is because there aren't enough people with decent gear to use in the first place. For the people in that situation, it's suicidal to go up against a pro with 10+ suits of Diamond Armor at their disposal. From my eyes, ore plumping is a great way to fix this - bringing in one of your suits is always better than fighting in your only suit. 

    In regards to the maps themselves, I really think we should encourage players to explore the Amplified zone at the edges of the world. This doesn't mean everyone running off to the border, setting up a lavish 1x1 hole in the dirt and never returning to civilization, but rather people having a reason to venture to the Amplified biomes, spending a bit of time there and then returning to base. 

    One way to go about this springs to mind:

    Plumped Mob Spawning: 

    The reason for this is fairly obvious. It's actually become very rare to run into a Cow on the Survival server, which isn't really a good thing. Some days, I see people in chat jumping for joy about finding a Pig. 

    A good way to resolve this is to try and set the passive Mob spawning rate many notches up in Amplified biome - that'd kill two birds with one stone should people be inclined to go to the world-border.

  6. Hi I'm dizney07 and I normally hangout on S when no one is on because APPARENTLY I LIKE TO PLAY MINECRAFT WHEN NO ONE ELSE DOES. But yeah ask me anything :-)

    How scrubby are you on a scale of 10-10?

    When's the next episode going to come out?

    If you pull through the modvote and become a mod, what will be your first goal in order to improve Survival/the servers?

    What're you looking forward to in 1.8?

    Where did you get your username? 

    If you could change one thing about nerd.nu, what would be be and why? 

  7. Hey there tompreuss.

    I was banned for "setting off a lag machine".
    I flipped on a large lag machine a couple of times or so for short periods of time, 5~ seconds each in order to test how bad it actually was. You then logged in and warned that if we triggered the lag machine, we would earn a ban. I can't disagree with that, however I can point out that after this warning I did not activate the machine again, yet I still found myself looking at the "Banned" screen. I hope we can sort this out, thanks.

  8. Oh, I never replied to Admanta's question.

     

    Do you have a plan for the infidel lever believers?

    I do have some special.. contraptions in mind. I dare not whisper such glorious information here, in plain sight of the Unholy Ones. 
    Now go, Noahdmanta - build an Ark. The flood is coming - a flood made not of water, but dribble.
