FELLAS JUST GIVE ME MAP IF U WANT
THIS IS MY LAST POST ON HER SORRY IT DIDNT WORK OUT
SURE THING RIGHT AWAY BUD! I CAN'T SEE ANY REASON I WOULD NOT TAKE TIME OUT OF MY LIFE TO PACKAGE MY MAP AND SEND IT TO YOU AFTER YOU NARCED OUT YOUR FRIENDS BASE AND GOT BANNED FROM MY SERVER!
NEVERMIND THAT I WOULD NEVER EVER SEND THE MAP TO ANYONE CAUSE YOU COULD JUST LOOK WHAT EVERYONE IS DOING IN THEIR CAPITOLS AND TOWNS!

Display MoreAre you a blue?!
Nice to meet you and welcome back to the server (even though I have no clue who you are!)
And to Mens, I heard the map is going to restart? Will you save the capitals? I don't want my work to be tossed in the drain...after all this time. Then again, a wipe may be nice..but I don't want my work and time to be lost either.... Lol.
I have to find a way to convert current block to new blocks. I think I saw a python script for doing so on Eloraams blog so I will give that a try.
Nice work man! And to think it has only taken 110 years for Tesla's dream of wireless power to be implemented, if only virtually.
Nice work guys, an addition like this could pave the way for a wave of effect based items mimicking real life drugs. Caffiene is a big one. I would say another would be tobacco considering it helps workers the world over stave off hunger by suppressing appetites. A few others that could be introduced could give combat related effects:
Amphetimines
Opiates
PCP
Amphetamines could increase movement speed, mining speed, reduce hunger and maybe have an effect on damage. Opiates could reduce the amount of damage a player takes. PCP - well even though its supposed to be a horse tranquilizer I once saw a guy on PCP punch through a thick glass display window, breaking every bone in his hand but still going. PCP would probably give the greatest effect at the cost of completely losing your mind (said guy who punched through the window went on to hold his girlfriend hostage and eventually was shot by the police).
Also these drugs were used by militaries extensively in WWII (Japanese AA gunners given meth to stay awake, all soldiers given morphine). They are even used in the current war on turror in the middle east. I remember reading about how in the battle for Fallujah soldiers would find dead insurgents with heroin needles, all kinds of pills, PCP, etc. They would do all the drugs available to them and fearlessly rush into combat whilst ignoring pain that would send a sober person into shock. Completely outnumbered, surrounded and outgunned they managed to hold out for a while and even inflict some serious casualties on the attacking Marines.
That being said there ought to be some serious drawbacks to using the drugs. Maybe a poison effect that takes hold when the drug wears off to slowly damage the player. I'm also wondering if it would be possible to stack effects and if so, make stacking effects have a pretty solid chance of just killing the player outright (especially when mixing stimulants and depressants). An addiction effect would be nice too, slowly damaging players who are not under the effect of a drug that they had taken too many times. Yes, you could just die to escape the effects of withdrawal/addicition but also consider that when you have traveled halfway across a map to participate in a conflict and are carrying all kinds of important gear mitigating the negative effects would be easier then respawning.
Hey Mensrea:
I'm truly sorry for the terraformer griefing incident and i won't do it again. However, I was wondering why u said I was duping, as that is the reason u banned me. I did not dupe anything in any way. The diamond blocks were the ones that u placed in a cross and i mined. If i did not dupe those, then what did i dupe?
PS: Could u unjail me or at least gimme a snow golem or unmute me while i am in jail. It has truly been a wonderful experience on your server
Yeah that was my bad you were not duping but what you were doing is abusing an exploit and that is not the first time you have done that. You consistently hunt out loopholes and exploits (and make them publicly known at that) and that has not gone unnoticed. You even sold your team stuff that you used an exploit to get.
Do you think it was as bad as being forced to live 1984?
What do I get for $15? You said players could get VIP or something for giving money and I'm curious what that entails.
dimix, hopefully someday something will come up, and we'll welcome you back with open arms!
YOU CAN'T HUG A FRIEND WITH NUCLEAR ARMS, MAN!
No, jk. But seriously dimix, we will find you a way to play. Whether you have to send me a western union money order or we have to commandeer an account, it will be done.
Yes mistic and cooldude, I agree. I did not realize the smack talk was bothering anyone too much until what happened yesterday with shadow. It definetly evolved from witty and playful to vulgar and base in a pretty short period of time.
So from now on I'm just going to be banning people for making ad-hominem attacks on others, period. Of course there will be warnings up to and including being muted or barred from public chat channels, but for people constantly calling each other pussies or whatnot there will just be outright bans. There are two people who have ban powers: tumuchfkingcreep and misticblade. Mistic if you can come back obviously you keep that power but if not I have to give it to mrcool. The idea is to have a person on each team who can recognize verbal abuse and then ban for it. If I'm on then I will probably take care of that. I'm not gonna let nicknaming or something like that go on.
I will be removing Xauth at the end of this week. There have been too many problems with griefing and general noobery for me to want to have the plugin any longer. We essentially have lost good players because of the griefing problems and thats not acceptable. If you are relying on xauth you have one week to get your affairs in order.
Dimix - http://usa.visa.com/personal/cards/prepaid/index.html - That should fix your problem.
Dean - The reason I dont like nukes is 2 parts; naturally the recipe is retarded - should be a dirty bomb not a nuclear weapon. The other, primary, reason is because even at default setting they throw everything on the server off. You want nukes now that you have a gargantuan restone fortress, guns and more resources then you will ever use, but what about when the map was fresh? Do you know what a stack of nukes would have done to the capitols then? And what about the rest of the entire map? I'm not doing this full time and I don't want to be going around regenerating land all the time. I would use nukes if they only killed living things, thats the only condition I will improve them under. In that case though I would make their explosion to like 90 or something so that one nuke dirty bomb would be able to inflict severe casualties over a large area.
Blue won todays battle and has taken back their town. Each team now controls 3 towns a piece once more. Tomorrows contest at 2pm EST will be taking place in Detroit, at the site of the old theater. Bring rocket launchers.
I'm changing the day for the fight of the facility. It will now be on Sunday at 2pm EST.
LOL @ dean
I said it once and I will say it again; I'm proud of you guys. Red and blue.
And this friday will be the fight over my facility. The team that holds the facility the longest in an hour will either 1. get a day to prepare the facilities defenses or 2. have the machines placed in their teams industrial park, their choice.
If your hiding in a corner your not "holding the facility", I will only consider those who are actively patrolling the site to be in its possession.
And soon I will be removing the quantum shoes. That brings quantum to 1 piece left. I hope you guys are practicing with guns cause sword fights are a thing of the past (where they belong!).
That's a fair call. Just as as lapotron miners are off by default, leave enchanting tools turned off by default but let the weak and spineless turn it on.
Just knowing that a brave man like you has the courage and fortitude to play a computer game with some stuff disabled will get me through the rest of the day. Thank god for you, sir, and your selfless contribution to humanity. Maybe if the rest of us could emulate your tenacious dedication to justice and purity in computer games the world would be that much better. Alas we may never know because too many poor souls are occupied with showing strength in their lowly jobs and lives to summon the immense moral and ethical courage needed for shunning a feature of a computer game.
Let us dream though, brothers. Let us dream...
Yes the server did go down for a while, its up now. It seems to be some problem with advanced machines.
es
I agree, upgrade slots in the pump would be nice to have.
Yes please, IC2 pumps are already the best way to move liquids. This would just make them even better.
True story.
Many people keep bugging us about reenabling enchantments, can't they just learn magic doesn't fit technology...
I completely agree with what your asserting. However, at some point after you have been nagged nearly to death, you just give in and say "fuck it". It is a game after all, not IRL serious business. The benifit of not being hounded and harassed may one day seem more appealing then maintaining creative control over something that offers miniscule to no returns on investment.
The worst that could happen is people wind up playing an anachronistic mish-mash of genres, which seems to work out well for WOW.
Let the chips fall where they may.
I don't even care about mojang content at this point.
On the other hand those bugfixes and optimizations...mmmmm....bugfixes...mmmm [salivates]
Apparently something in forestry was crashing the server. I have now removed forestry from the server, probably for good. More mods usually means more problems and more abandonware.
I will be compensating players with the opportunity to raid a facility sometime next week. The contents of the facility are extremely valuable.
I may be wrong but this is how I got rid of quantum armor and pants. By far easier then pissing around with all that other stuff.
1.Open up IC2 config
2.Find the item ID for the mass fab
3.Replace it with the item ID of something else
Now when someone trys to craft it they will get the item you replaced it with.
Bad ass server concept by the way, Outlander is a sci-fi classic. I dig your style man.
