Yay!!  Thanks so much Larry, this is like an early Christmas present!

Time to go on a chunk shopping spree...  :D

Perfectly understandable....eventually works for me.  :)

Love love LOVE the improvements to chunk buying!  Just the better placement of the slabs, and how the common border is handled, would be awesome in itself, but the torches too?  So, so helpful.

I'm gonna hoard up my free chunks until this gets implemented!

54
Little bit late, but while we're on the subject....

I'd love to see the time to the next free chunk added to the output for /wild free, if it's available.  Right now one has to to the URL to find that out.  It'd be nice not to have the number and time 'till in different places.

On the one hand - whoo! my first Noobmas, can't wait!

On the other hand  25 days to Christmas and I haven't even started my shopping! Yikes! 

I guess as long as I log in every day to open the chest, I won't lose track of the deadline....

Thanks!! *blushes*. It was a really fun build!

Suggestions & Ideas / Re: Starting Up
« on: 11 Nov 2016, 05:15:56 »
Call me uncharitable, but, I suspect most of the problem is just most people aren't willing to read anything, not a few simple signs or a book or nothin', it's all tl;dr as far as they're concerned.  They just want to hop immediately into a town and have whoever's in chat spoon-feed 'em the rest (and often, hand them stuff for free).

That's not even getting into the Mineapoc folks who, upon learning months too late that their old server's kaput, don't even give Noobstown a chance because it's not Mineapoc.

I suspect there's not much we can do for these two use cases, but then, they aren't the ones who are going to stick around and become part of the community anyway.  More players is all very well and good, but more players who just play a couple days and disappear forever aren't really what the server needs.

Good and dedicated players are few and far between, no matter the sever.  There's only so much a simplified start-up process can do about that.

Dunno.  I'm probably in the minority, but I'm not fond of the changes to combat in 1.9....I'm just as happy to play in 1.8 a bit longer, even without the new blocks.

The party was awesome!  So many goodies I'll need extra chests to store them all!  *woot woot*

Thanks so much Larry for everything that you do for us and for the server!

I can guess where Snowball and Spooky Spleef will be, but what are the locations for the Fishing Tournament and Noobween Party?

It seems that one of the part 2 trades isn't working...trying to trade Serif Pt2 the Clue 1 and Clue 2 books doesn't give me the Clue 1 & 2 list.  A ticket has been put in.

Anyone else having this problem?

Haunted House

Inspired by a song my sister and I leaned at camp when we were kids.  The words to the song are scattered on signs around the build....can you find all 13?

Was the last part of the pirate quests ever finished?  It'd be nice to wrap that up before diving into Noobween....though I'm looking forward to that too since this is my first Noobween!

It's a shame about the x2 Mcmmo donations going away.  I can certainly understand not wanting to complicate your taxes, but Mojang's guidelines would allow that kind of thing:

"You may....sell positive effects or enhancements (other than "Capes") IF everyone on the server is positively affected in exactly the same way."

Anyway, looking forward to the summer updates, and to seeing more server events and other fun stuff!  :)

What does the top voter head look like?  Just curious.

What happens if someone donates for a double Mcmmo event? Does it stack to give quadruple xp?

Excellent!  Thanks everyone!

Be aware however currently if you change your Minecraft account username you will be blocked from accessing the server though.

Oh, I know.  This is actually the only screen name I've used since....well, since they were called screen names.  ;)

Support / Name change vs account migration?
« on: 14 Aug 2016, 00:47:05 »
Yes, I ask a lot of questions.   8)

I still have the old-school Minecraft account, not a Mojang account (hey, if it works, don't fix it; and it's not like I'm ever going to play Scrolls).

But I was tweaking my skin, and the app I used insists that one use a Mojang account.

So, if I migrate my old Minecraft.net account to a Mojang account, will that prevent me from logging onto the server, as a name change would?

Thanks for adding this to the work list!  Don't worry, I realize there's a lot going on with the updates already planned, plus all the admin changes.

It's actually pretty impressive that Noobstown not only has a roadmap, but that so many of those things get implemented....I've dealt with major software vendors whose track records weren't that good!

Suggestions & Ideas / Add personal message to /gift?
« on: 7 Aug 2016, 16:18:34 »
Might it be possible to add a personalized message to sent gifts, instead of the default "player sent you a gift!" message? 

It would be nice to be able to include a note like "I know you like these" or "your share of the loot" or "in return for all the stuff you lent me" or something that adds context and a bit of fun to the gift.

Perhaps this could take the form of /gift (player) (message) or something similar?  And then the message could take the place of the default mail message that gets sent.

Would anyone else find this useful, or is this another just-me thing?

Watch me lose track of where all my homes go now....they say memory is the first thing to go, and I can't remember the second thing...  ;)

Thanks Larry!  Extra homes are so very handy when you find that great mining spot or that temple/dungeon/mineshaft/stronghold you want to come back to!
