I'm interested in seeing how this plays out.

May need to withdraw from testing; turns out my internet is not great, at least at this hour.

What am I going to do with all the "Vote Aypop Tosis for Seneca Mayor!" bottles I got from the bar now? D:

Closing due to inactivity; please make a new appeal stating the rule(s) you broke and that you have read the rules and agree to abide by then on to be unbanned.

Count me in for testing too. I'm not sure how well this will work, but if the goal is to keep teams evenly matched in terms of points, perhaps give some sort of buff to the team that's lagging behind by a certain number of points, that's not one of the buffs that can be captured on the map? And then disable that buff after the difference in points has been narrowed below that threshold?

Thread reopened. I'm not sure why it was closed in the first place.

therealcruz, You were banned for continuing to use a client modification that allows you to automatically attack anyone within range after you had been warned to remove it. Such a hack gives its player an unfair advantage in PvP and is thus not allowed on Survival. Before you were banned I observed your PvP. I briefly unvanished behind you to check for aimbotting, and watched you turn around to swing your sword at me before turning back around to face the door, and a few moments later turn around to look behind you: I then kicked you with the warning to remove your hack, and watched you return to the game and fend off the three players who were gathered around you. In particular, you executed improbably fast 180-degree turns when attacking thelifelessone and rickyjhunt123. Following this, I and another moderator continued to observe your PvP and concluded that you were very likely continuing to use the aimbot hack, after which point you were banned. You're banned for a week. Please read the rules and the list of client modifications allowed on S, and reply back here on May 12 stating the rule(s) you broke, and that you will agree to abide by the rules from then on to be unbanned. You will not be unbanned sooner than that.

You are now unbanned. Be respectful, and play well :D

Hello darthcoolguy, You were banned for the removal of an arc of about 230 dirt blocks that were placed by another player. I understand why you did what you did. In instances like this, you should make a modreq about it. Even better, find who built the structure and try to work out an agreement or a compromise with the player. But removing part of another players' build without their consent for any reason is still against our rules, regardless of whether you think the players' build was violating the rules. Please take a read through the rules at http://nerd.nu/rules, and reply here tomorrow (April 26) stating that you have read the rules and agree to abide by them from then on to be unbanned. If you have any other questions, feel free to ask either here or in a forum PM, or in-game after you return.

For a 24-hour continuous gameplay event, CTF fits the bill quite nicely - that and we have the plugin for it covered, I think. I'm interested in hearing alternatives though - buch's space event? A modified form of Zombies/Infection? <insert shameless plug for silly TNT fishing feature here>

The account Preeds is not banned on our servers at time of writing; what is your in-game name?

From a recent game of Trouble on Spaceship Vengeance.

What Pico did wrong is irrelevant to this appeal. That said, they have been dealt with for their actions already, as have you.. Just remember to modreq for grief if something happens like this again; the staff are here to help. You are now unbanned. Play well :D

Ban information: Ban for MackConst on c.nerd.nu for Griefing on P nerd.nu/appeal by buzzie71 on 2014-03-09 12:32:21 (no more bans, no notes) Hi MackConst, and thanks for appealing. Your wall was indeed moved, and staff are currently looking into it - short answer is that both parties were at fault. This appeal, though, will only focus on your actions. You were banned for griefing another players' build: In addition to breaking blocks above water, you spammed cobblestone down the tunnel: The water you let into the tunnel also destroyed redstone: This is what the tunnel looks like after undoing your grief: Even though your wall was moved, this does not mean you are allowed to grief back. Editing other players' builds without permission for any reason is against the rules - if this happens again, please /modreq for grief at the location instead. You're banned for three days. Please review http://nerd.nu/rules, and reply here stating the rules you broke and that you will agree to follow the rules on March 12, 2014 to be unbanned.

Just to let everyone know that the staff do know about this and will keep an eye out if it persists (it was most perplexing :S). In the meantime, if you do get stuck there, my advice is to log back in right after the server restarts (15 minutes past even hours in Mountain time) - whatever happens does clear away pretty soon after a restart.

The trade I was thinking of is <some number of> gravel + 1 emerald -> <some number of> flint. I don't think a straight emeralds -> flint/gravel exists, at least in vanilla gameplay.

The flint trade still takes gravel as an input though, so strictly speaking, the flint obtained from villagers is still a finite resource.

Flint would be very easy to acquire with a Fortune 3 shovel and lots of gravel though - unless there is a lot of flint circulating in the market, there would be an inflation concern there too. EDIT: Read your next post; I see what you mean now :D

Oh, just happened to be playing a round of Trouble in Spaceship Unity :D (It's on the craftbukkit test server I run off my laptop that I use mainly for testing plugins. Had Unity on it though, and I converted the room behind the cryo bay into a traitor tester to make it look like a TTT game.)

She looks clean; the tester said so! :O

THE END [Author's note: This is actually not quite the end. Another subplot that was started for this story and meant to be interwoven with the current plot had been abandoned part of the way due to time constraints, but if I have time or there is great interest, I'll continue writing and release bits of story in this thread. Thanks go to TheRandomnatrix and schererererer who have been providing feedback for the pieces I wrote, and thanks to all who have followed this story to the end; I hope you enjoyed it :D]
