*Logs into computer
Blaster: how did you bastards get through?

*Looks at Planetary map.
Blaster: That's what I thought

*N.I.C.O.L.E walks in
N.I.C.O.L.E: Let me guess, they got access to the code system?

*Reads entry codes
Blaster: To be precise, the code from the missing cargo ship. I warned the counsel that this could happen.
N.I.C.O.L.E: Can't you just change the code?
Blaster: the transmitters are set up to automatically update their codes, if the spambots have one, then it will make no difference.

*Starts hacking
N.I.C.O.L.E: What are you doing?
Blaster: Trying to see if I can get past the communication jammer the spambots have set up.
N.I.C.O.L.E: Project Cavalry?
Blaster: Got it in one. I'm also sending a transmission to the Hex system. I hope Bolts will be able to give us a hand this time.
N.I.C.O.L.E: I hope so to. Also, the Solaris Emerald is ready.

*Hands over Emerald
Blaster: Thanks N.I.C.O.L.E. GO help Bitterholz, I'm going to keep working on this.

*N.I.C.O.L.E Leaves. Releases Weavile, Blaziken, Lucario and Swampert
Blaster: I need you guys to cover me, Weavile, your on lookout

*Blaster come up behind Bitterholz
Blaster: I see you didn't escape that clean

*Bitterholz turns and aims gun at Blaster
Blaster: Easy, im on your side. remember
Bitterholz: you took your time

*Lowers gun
Blaster: Spambots were attacking the power plant that generate the power for the defense grid. I thought it would be better to protect that which is why I'm late. Now that that's over, I thought you could use a hand with the sabotarge.
Bitterholz: where's the Frame Carrier?
Blaster: In a space port

*Bitterholz looks nervous
Blaster... protected. Come on, we have a little work to do, remember? I'll leave the base sabotage to you, just place this into their communications network.

*Hands device to Bitterholz
Blaster: I'm going to the tower to find out how they got through the grid. Tell me if you have any problems.

Well, if you still need the from scratch one, I will continue making one so that it is ready to go live at any moment

* At Power Plant near Mojang City

Worker 1: This is it, we're done for
Worker 2: Everyone is fighting the Spambots in Mojang City, No-one is coming here to give us reinforcements

*Front Door breaks open, several dead Minecraftians are blown inside as Spambots march in
* A man in a thick cloak drops down from roof

Blaster: Devine Intervention!

* A shield appears around door encasing the Spambots

Blaster: I've got this, GO!!!
Worker 1: GOING!!!

*After Evacuation
Blaster: N.I.C.O.L.E are the workers a safe distance away
N.I.C.O.L.E: They are Blaster
Blaster: Good

*Two pokeballs appear on gauntlet

Blaster: Blaziken, Lucario. Let's Go
Blaziken: BBLLAAZZEE
Lucario: Hmph
Blaster When I take the shield down, Blaziken I want you to Use Blast Burn on Lucario's Aura Sphere. Aim at the Spambots, Got It.

*They both nod
Blaster: Alright then... NOW

*Blaster lowers shield, the resulting attack destroys the Spambots near the door
Blaster: They're retreating. Blaziken, Lucario, Return

*Return to Pokeballs, gauntlet transports them
Blaster: N.I.C.O.L.E, the plant is secure. What's the status in Mojang city
N.I.C.O.L.E: The spambots appear to be retreating from there aswell
Blaster: excellent, Im going there now. Find out the defenses there are around the Spaceport the Frame Carrier's in
N.I.C.O.L.E: Got it, working on it now

*Gets on armed motor bike and head's for Mojang city

Quote from Dj_777

But wouldn't a solid gold bank be redundant? Why not just build a giant gold block out of gold blocks?

Where's the fun in that? (says this while killing fainting his 1024th Audino while trying to find a Metagross)

We haven't yet, I'm assuming soon though. Now that this is out, it's only a matter of time (not that I'm complaining, I think it could be a good idea...in theory)

I think the best way to start is a shared Dropbox folder so that we can pull our resources of the mod. Can everyone who is interested PM me the name they use on Dropbox so that I can set up said folder

I had a feeling this would happen (like when they announced the robin pokemon, crobatman memes waiting to happen). I wouldn't mind a non technological setting in something like the spambot wars (at least a part of it) but if there is one, there shouldn't be any futuristic weapons (NO TIME PARADOX (ES/'S(???))).

Well then, all that needs to be done is to decide the requirements of the website. I can't do logins at the moment so this can't be edited by users. But I will make a forum thread here for the website so that anyone can ask for something to be changed. If there is anything specific that people want on the website, post it here so that I can get started.

So far:

1. Each block and item will have a page dedicated to it so that people can learn how to use each part of the mod. This includes photos of the Block/ Item
2. There will be a changelog of Greg The so that people can find out what was added/ removed and when.
3. There will be a mod spotlights page.
4. There will be a link to
1. The Greg Tech thread
2. The Greg Tech suggestion thread
3. The websites suggestion thread

If there is anything I have missed, post it here and I will edit it in.

EDIT: Question. What mod is the Beryllium Reflector from?

I can make a website (using dreamweaver), however I won't be able to host it

Quote from wasmic

Thanks, T10a. I'll start a spambot wars season 3 thread when I get home (in a few hours). I'll also start a thread where you can post what things you are in possesion of, so that no confusion will arise about thing like "who was it again that was a cyborg and who had that starship". I'll also remember some writing guidelines, like "no godmodding" and "no godmodeing", and also some tips for writing a good story.

I had fun with Spambot Wars 2, thanks, everybody!

I assure you, the Mirror move shield won't be coming back in it's current form. I have a plan for it to only be a focused area and the rest is a normal shield. it's why the last bit of the season the shield didn't work

+1. I believe that the better the documentation of the mod, without spoilers, the better it is to get into the mod

I see what you mean, I always thought that the Addons section could not be directly posted into (probably because I have never needed to post anything there because I don't code in java (going to learn, just not now)) I agree with both of you, the Addons section needs to be blocked to prevent stuff like this or at the very least a janitor to clean it up (preferably both)

Quote from MatLaPatate

But that would be OP, because of Mystcraft. Just assume some players don't use OP mods

Point taken, but in defense, it beats EMC from EE2 in terms of levels of OP, Mystcraft is a bit more balanced then EE2 (plus it took me ages to find the Void page for the first time)

Quote from Sinnaj63

Farming Creepers is a good idea to get Gunpowder. Install the Hat Mod by iChun if you have problems with farming creepers.

How the hell does that work? In terms of gunpowder, you could have a void age mob farm.

Quote from DragonZombie

uhh using quotes is harder in this... ON TOPIC: i found out that forestry is incompatible with IC2 and thats why it crashed..... well thank god for emergency backup

Get latest Forestry, IC2 had a API update. the Configs should still work for the latest version. Also, if you want to quote, just hit the quote button in the post you want to quote

Update NEI Plugins, IC2 updated it's API and the plugins are trying to find and run of the old one.

This is Blaster's "Minecraft Boot up" tutorial

1. Remove all mods except Forge and test. If you can load Forge without any problems, move to step 2
2. Re install your core mods. while you are testing, NEI is very helpful as it can show you any broken recepies and help with ID conflicts
3. Install in mods that go into the mods folder one at a time, in order to find out the mod that is causing the problem

Once you find the problematic mod, the first thing to do is, once again, remove all the mods except the problematic on. to find out if it is a clash with the mods.
Then, UPDATE FORGE (this is your problem), if problem persists. Downgrade to the recommended version of the Forge forums. if the problem still exists, downgrade to the recommended forge version on the mod in question's forum. If you still have the problem, complain to the mod author/s to get it fixed and if it sais that it's fixed, but you are still having the problem. You should probably stop making a mod pack and play a custom one.

This has been Blaster's "Minecraft Boot up" tutorial. For all your bug fixing need.

Seriously though, updating Forge should be your first step. I have had this problem several times while I have been working (slowly) on the Shrine Runner mod pack.

I would like to help more, but I have no idea what mods you are running. I also recommend creating a fresh set of configs as a Just in case (Just delete everything inside your config folder)

I should say then that I am currently working on a series of builds highlighting the machines of the spambot wars season two. Right now all I have is a 3d plus that will become the defense station. I will try to make them as close to scale as possible.
