Alright guys, the big switch has happened! For those of you that forgot to add the new address to your list, this is it:

We are aware that the server is down. We are having plugin issues. Please be patient. We are working on this problem and the server will be up soon.
Thank you!
A month or so ago, we installed a Jail plugin on the server. With this plugin, we can “jail” players who we find to be in violation of certain rules. We do not do this often, and it’s usually only for minor cases of griefing. While in jail, you may not break blocks, and are unable to leave until…
It’s that time of year again. Exams are drawing to a close (for most people), and the air is getting warmer every day. What better way to celebrate than a party on the beach? Don’t want to or can’t go to a real beach? Just get on the server! We’ll supply the beach for you!
This Friday, we’re…
So for those of you interested, the biography of David Zotzz is now available to read. It is located in the Server Library in the Member World. Go ahead and get your copy soon!
EA Responds To Being Named ‘The Worst Company in America’
In a recent poll on Consumerist.com, it was decided that Electronic Arts was the worst company in America. This is the second year in a row that EA has taken the top prize. In response, EA’s COO Peter Moore has released this statement.
Perfect.
It honestly worries me that people do not see this for the fake it is. Yes it’s a brilliant post and points out the truth of the matter, but it’s a fake. EA did not write this. Stop pretending they did. I almost imagine Jonathan Swift writing this.
CTF Event starts in 3 minutes
If you’re playing with us, go ahead and log on
Everyone that plays on the server should get their butts on!
Some shots of our new Capture the Flag course! It shall be known as “ctf_pipeline,” named in the fashion of TF2, from which I drew much inspiration for this map. The CTF Event will be taking place tomorrow night at 9PM EST on our server! If you want to participate, log on then! It’d also help us out a bunch with planning if you could sign up at this forum thread. You don’t even have to have a forum account. Just tell us your Minecraft username and your team preference (RED or BLU).
We’re also going to attempt a playtest of the map sometime today, so make sure to log on if you want to help us test out the map!

Because I have friends that are just this awesome.
Unfollowing
I’m going to have to start unfollowing certain people as of late due to their posting major plot spoilers to games I plan on playing and adding my two sense to. For the love of all that is unholy, TAG THE TITLE WITH “SPOILER:” Christ. This is why I prefer reddit sometimes….
Remember when Bukkit used to post beta and recommended builds? Man, those were the days, right?
Pepridge farm remembers.
On our server you are subject to the rules, even if you don’t bother to read them. Yesterday, we had a few players on our server who didn’t bother to read the rules because they were so excited to play Temple Run, and they thought this was unfair. They said they didn’t know about the rules.
I’d like to direct your attention to these screenshots of the initial spawn. The first shot is what you see as soon as you enter the game. It directs you (very obviously) to look to your right to read the rules. The second shot is what you see when you look to your right. It is a decent read, but it gives you most of the information you’ll need to play on the server. In the rules and info, it tells you that the exit is behind you. The third screenshot is what you see at the exit of the room. The signs clearly tell you that if you press the button, you agree to follow the rules. Pressing the button then allows you to enter the game.
If these aren’t some blatantly obvious rules, I don’t know what else I can do for you guys.
Doing some late-night plugin work
Just so you guys know what’s going on if the server keeps restarting.
Didn’t make it to the Mun….yet.
I only managed to play for an hour last night before giving up and going to play more League, but I did manage to start designing a new rocket that will get me there.
I’m still in the practice stages and I’m starting to learn new tricks, but I do think it’ll be possible for me to get to the Mun in the next week or so. I just need to figure out a design, and figure out if I’m going to land on the Mun or just get in orbit. Orbiting will be hard enough, I think I might stick with that for now.
If anyone has any ideas on how to build a specific design, or how to achieve my goal, please let me know! I could use all the help I can get.
