    I think another Nether Luas is in order. I have plenty of iron blocks at the moment, but not sure it will be enough for even half the distance. (I don't know, I haven't built any railways around Lump_Land so far.)

    Anyway, there's a zombie spawner at 10185 -68. It's right next to the portal, in a patch of holes in the ground. I deactivated it, but I'll be back to make an XP and loot farm.

    I have a zombie spawner near the lighthouse, I might investigate how to make a farm out of it. Can you silk touch the spawner blocks to move them?

    Apparently not. Does anyone have a spider spawner yet?

    As for a Nether Luas, since I built it at all the same height (and cause it's so far) what I was gonna do was make an ice-boat path instead. It's much much faster and a bit cheaper really! Hoooopefully will have that done over the weekend

    Nope, no way to move spawners

    THe ice-boat path to the mesa in the nether is now complete. It is absolutely insanely fast - use at your own risk.

    It's a long time since I checked this forum, and it looks like I've missed a party! If there's space, may I join in? User: DirkGently.

    From out there on the moon, international politics look so petty. You want to grab a politician by the scruff of the neck and drag him a quarter of a million miles out and say, ‘Look at that, you son of a bitch’.

    Thanks! I wasn't able to check until today anyway. I had a look around, rode the rails for a bit, and I've started a first house in an unoccupied area. I'll be back.

    I did some ocean circumnavigation, found a few points of interest:
    • Jungle: -2770, 7162
    • Mesa: 100, 5100
    • Flower Forest: 3350, 3500
    All accessible by boat from spawn.

    The trains go to a flower forest and swamp as well. I'm not too sure of the coordinates, but the mesa is accessible from the Nether. The portal opens on top of a mountain with a zombie spawner at the bottom. (I bagses it.)

    The subscription for the Realm ends in 14 days, I imagine it's not really worth renewing after that. I'm going to download the world but if anyone wants to A) Blow it all up as one last hurrah as a group event or B) Play some minigames, let me know.

    Aw - and I was just getting started. I'm going to do some exploring of all your work before the end,

    I think it might be time to let it go. Minecraft interest comes in waves, It surges then ebbs back away until the next wave.

    The problem with these servers is that some people go hard at it for 20+ hours in the first week and some of us don't have time for that and it just feels like it's not that much fun cause someone else has already built all the portals and got the Nether fortress and all that jazz and there's just no real scope to "play" the game when you've got 4 hours a week instead of 20.

    I don't know how or even if you can address something like that, it's not like I'd be in favour of telling anyone to slow down or leave it alone as long as there's fun being had and no griefing.
