I don't like that design. I prefer something like this:  -- Ryan Patterson - <http://cgamesplay.com/> |

I'm not in the mood of watching the entire video. My vote depends on what materials are involved, and the amount needed. I can find plenty of iron mining, heck, we could even make an organized mine to find it. That can be fun too. We thought the rollercoaster was going to take way too long for the iron. We built it in 2-3 days, with some contributions. Can you provide an estimate of how much resources we'd need? (Maybe looking and doing some math on the cartographed map.

That design is already in use for the roller coasters. I dislike the two switches, since its too easy to push the cart into the next track. (I'm not sure if that's also a problem with single switches though). It is a simpler design to build though, and if it harvests empty carts and can dispense them on demand, that already fulfills the main appeal of the other system (being that you don't have to sit around and wait for a cart to show up). [edit] The distance from the spawn point to the arena is probably the maximum distance that I would like to have to walk to get anyplace, but maybe that's just me. [edit2] |

I knew that'd bring some nostalgia warming your heart. BAF said: I'm not sure what materials are needed, but I would like to expand the current map a bit. I'm thinking a station near the spawn point, then build out several (tens of?) chunks in each direction - giving us much more room, a quick way to get there, and hopefully a more diverse map in terms of biomes.The distance from the spawn point to the arena is probably the maximum distance that I would like to have to walk to get anyplace, but maybe that's just me.
I still ain't sure if I'd like to spawn items or not. If there's one thing I'm bored to hell, is mining cobblestone, that's for sure. Sorry, I can't really vote until I see the scale of the project. I'd say let's try and build without cheating, if in the long run we see it's WAY too much of a big project, my vote will be changed. So take that as a 'no' until the moment I see what you're talking about. Quote: afaik, you can't create your own colored cloth yet, can you?
Nope, you can't. It'd also prevent people from stealing the diamond blocks. TranslatorHack 2010, a human translation chain in a.cc. |

Of course spawning cobblestone isn't necessary. My concern was the iron for the tracks. Also, according to the wiki, colored cloth has been removed, so that doesn't help us anyway. I'll hop on minecraft to discuss it shortly, if you're on. |

Is there a vent server our skype conference call going on? -- Ryan Patterson - <http://cgamesplay.com/> |

No. One can be arranged if you can get everyone to discuss at once though. |

Think of how much online cred we would get for building it with real materials... I logged in this morning and my boat elevator is still running! |

Here's how I designed the SkyTower boat elevator. It's fully automatic, so the boat continually goes through the loop. To ride it, right click to hop in and, once the boat slows down, hop out on top. You can come back down by hopping in it from up top as well. Explanation:
In building it I broke a crapton of boats and probably died a dozen times |

Put wool around the area to absorb some of the breaking force from the boats. |

So, we finally did a "formal" fight in the arena. Since nobody could record it from an spectator's view, see it from the gladiators' eyes! It's me vs someone972.  TranslatorHack 2010, a human translation chain in a.cc. |

I'm with dario, I say let's try to build it the normal way first. On the other hand, due to new year's I'm not in town (happy new year!), so I won't be able to join you for a few days. I also need to mine more iron since I donated most of my stacks for the rollercoaster. ----- |

Arena battles need more full diamond equipment. Pretty cool, though. Go Dario!

You'd have less people competing if competitors had full diamond equipment. It's way too expensive. We should have multi-person battles too, like this:  |

I'm not sure why this is, but once in a while (Annoying that it happens when I want to play multi-player however) if I'm playing Minecraft, at some point, the screen become black, I can't do anything with it, there's no spike in CPU (actually, it seems the CPU usage drops as though Minecraft just stops) and I have to force quit Minecraft. One time this happened, if I start playing again after that happens, the whole computer will lock up if that happens again. --- |

As neat as a transcontinental subway system would be I think it would quickly be made obsolete by functioning portals. For that reason I'm against the spawning of materials for it's construction. I still think it would be neat though, and I'd contribute my own iron and would hunt for more to help with it's construction. ================================================= |

The idea was unarmed fights. But I suppose if you want to waste diamond armor and weapons, go right ahead -- |

I liked the "find weapons" system, though all the moving around was confusing. Why make walls in a melee fight? -- |

We can do the two modes whenever you want, the fighters determine what they want. It's either nothing or take whatever you want to the fight. If you lose it, the opponent gets everything you were carrying with you. There isn't a restriction to barehanded fights only. TranslatorHack 2010, a human translation chain in a.cc. |

I am going to construct Mordor. I've selected a mountiain, and will be covering the entire thing plus a radius around it with gravel, stone, etc. I'll add some lava, caves, and tons of monster spawners so at nighttime the whole place will be crawling with stuff. I'll build a tall wall around the whole thing, iron doors, and a redstone clock circuit so the doors only open sometimes. The whole thing will probably be 4-5 times larger than the arena in either direction, about the size of two biomes. I might also build a roof over the entire thing, so that it's deadly in daytime, too. If anybody wants to help, I'm a day's walk north of everything. Check the map. If you have gravel, I'll gladly accept donations. -- Ryan Patterson - <http://cgamesplay.com/> |

You should use obsidian for it. It's gotta be black. I actually want to build Isengard. Or at least The Dark Tower. All out of obsidian. But I don't have the weeks it'd take to harvest all that lava. -- |

I plan to place obsidian into it, but the majority will just be gravel -- Ryan Patterson - <http://cgamesplay.com/> |
