I had no coal, and I figured that with the 1.7 update cobble will look much nicer.

But I've got a stack now, so I can help upgrade it. Torches to keep it snow-free would be nice, too, but only if they're placed so as not to melt the snow on the outside.

I plan on making roads to various other places as well. While minecarts are faster, roads create more of a sense of... I don't know... connection. Also sometimes I don't have minecarts, and they don't work for me in high lag.

Wow Rupture Farms look staggering! How many people are working on that? The place is really evolving fast, well done.

Not to mention it's quicker to walk in some cases.

You can send donations via Paypal.
I wouldn't leave your e-mail in public view 'cause of spambots - I'd at least separate it a bit.

I've currently got a problem with my PayPal account, but will be sorting that out shortly. Afterwards I'll donate a few bucks.

Nice work on the map, BTW.

Use Charcoal like I'm doing! It's easy! :P

Think you need to be an established member of OWF first.

BTW when the hacking incident happened, I took a video of the hacker when he compromised Notch's name while being diplomatic with him. Notch's skin has a cape somehow. :P Cheater.

I debated with myself if I should burn them or not. Then I confessed to Splat and Max that I had them. They said to do as I liked with them.

So I looked at the RF construction site to remind me of the vast job that I have ahead of me and thought "Sod it" and stashed them. Alright, I won't be able to stay that RF was done entirely without cheating, and I have a bit of a guilty concious for deciding to keep them, but they have made the job easier so far. And it's not like I've been spawning stone or other materials, or will spawn anything again - Would defeat the purpose otherwise.

The server is for the long-serving and active participants in the Oddworld Forums community. Not saying you'll never fit that bill, but do consider where you fall on these plots:



Figure 1: Length of membership, number of posts and amount of reputation of the Oddworld Forums Minecraft Server participants (n = 18). Data taken from morning of 28 June 2011 (UTC+1).

EDIT: For clarity, the minima are 326, 670 and 46 respectively.

I gather that the purple lines draw from the maximum to minimum days since joining, post count and rep of all members of OWF who use the server.
The boxes, I guess, shows the average where most users of the server hover, though that bit I could be wrong on. I'm too lazy and hungry to decipher the Wikipedia article, and its ages since I took a maths lesson.

Unfortunately there is more to the selection process than statistical achievement.

Robert Mugabe has been Prime Minister of Zimbabwe for 34 years! He must be one of the best leaders in the world!

The line in the middle of the box is the total median, the boxes shows the interquartile range where 50% of the data falls. The ends of the whiskers are the minimum and maximum number from the sample. The top of the Rep whisker is me, the top of the Post whisker is Max etc.

I do when it helps explain to people why they shouldn't expect to be let on the server.

Actually, I had fun doing it.
