    Jungle found and special jungle themed teleporter created to it :) I think I saw something made of Cobblestone in that jungle...

    In case anybody misses my face on the server, you can find it at the entrance to Pompus's mine :D

    I spent a couple of hours crafting beside that face. I felt like you were watching over me the whole time. Always there, in the corner of my eye.

    Did anyone notice anything fishy about that pond behind the teleport to Black Mesa Castle?

    Ok so the pond behind the black mesa has a somewhat hidden teleporter that brings you to a village. Near the village I found this hidden cave entrance:

    Which contained this lovely little bit of loot:

    328140.png

    Sure enough, there is an ocean monument nearby!

    328141.png

    But even with being able to run and breathe underwater, I'm pretty sure I will get rekt if I try to conquer the ocean monument. I'm currently mining for diamonds to get better armour. I also need to brew some stuff.

    So who wants to team up and kick some ass? :)

    I'm really sorry John, I missed your first request - I'll get you added at lunch.

    Here's the access list for the Realm - the limit is 20 and we're at 19.

    I don't know who put up the snotty sign about my first house, but that was just the "starter home". They say "go big or go home" ... why can't I have both? :cool:

    (It's not finished yet.)

    PS: given my current level of armour etc., I'll skip the trip to the Ocean Monument. It would be a real short trip for me. :o

    Yea, I have graphs showing who was online for a given time and date, so I can work off that and will start cycling people based on that if I need to.

    You can start by cycling myself out. I'm not gonna spend much time playing and best go to those who will :)

    I'll let you know if I change my mind in the future :) Cheers Shiminay

    Found one of the strongholds. See images below. There is an underground ravine that cuts through it. Not sure where the end portal is yet, will need to head back and get some supplies. Once we've taken out the water monument we'll have to take out the dragon!

    You can probably go ahead and take me off the list, I've only played it once because of the massive lag. Maybe if I move to a town I'll play but until then I'm bowing out.

    I've added a bulletin board thing, next to the Mesa teleporter, so folks can say "I woz ere". Spare signs in the "Stuff" chest nearby. I suggest adding your home co-ordinates there too, so we can saunter over and admire ... whatever the heck that is. :cool:

    The map is starting to make a bit more sense - see attachment.
    I've annotated it with places whose owners I know, I can add more if you let me know where you are on it.

    For reference, crafty0204's place at top left is around 0,0, and the centre of spawn is almost two maps south and one east (around 135,225).

    PS: those Martians aren't all that scary ... how could they be, in a spaceship made of dirt, wool, and snow? :cool:

    ...

    I (crafty) wandered off in no particular direction and set up shop. It was only when I was heading off exploring that I thought to check my co-ords. 0,0 is fairly easy to remember ;-)

    damnit.

    I was building a giant slime, out of slime. It seems to have killed my ability to run the client. I've tried giving myself extra RAM to get past this, but to no avail... I may have to roll back the map (Realms allows this) to a time I wasn't building something without 1700+ slime blocks in it...

    Haha wooops! :D

    That's pretty surprising that just slime blocks would cause crashes, considering how much people use slime blocks in giant redstone contraptions like this without much issue -
