    well I have to admit I didnt count those spiders AT ALL, but I'm guessing about 20ish ... so lets say 30 points today
    new total is about 235 points!

    possible points :
    - mobs: zombies[0.75], skeleton[1.5], spider[1.5], creeper[3], pigman[4.5], ghast[9]

    those redstone torches are really just a TEMPORARY thing... of course they don't light up enough, but they help out just enough to look around before putting light in
    although, you really should always add in lava right after probing into the cave with redstone torches...

    NEW 404!

    starting with a total of 185 points...
    + 6 creepers, 2 skeleton, 3 zombies, 0 spiders = 23.25 points
    new total is about 205 points!

    possible points :
    - mobs: zombies[0.75], skeleton[1.5], spider[1.5], creeper[3], pigman[4.5], ghast[9]
    - Diamond Block: 30
    - Gather 1 Obsidian: 7.5

    - Place 1 glowstone in Overworld: 15
    - Nether Portal: 22.5
    - Working double door (redstone, swings correctly on activation): 22.5

    and in case you see here before youtube, you could use redstone torches in stead of your pumpkins... since stuff can't spawn close to you and you always stay close to the pumpkins, all you need is a bit of light to see what you're doing... and they're very fast to put down or take away, are disposable in case you need to abandon ship and pretty easy to make... and I'm just guessing here but don't they slow down mob spawning? even though they don't STOP it, they slow it down...
    also, you should start using iron pickaxes all the time... you have plenty of iron, and that would save on inventory space and dig time
    as for diamond... I can't help but feel you're too high up most of the time, so maybe try and take the lower paths more? like if you have to choose between up, straight or down : block off up and straight and then make your way down

    NEW 404!

    although he isn't updating the leader board anymore...

    update on the count lol with a base of 143.25... and + about 15 from off cam kills, the new value is :

    + 2 skel, 2 creepers, 2 zombies, 4 spiders = 10 points
    + gold block = 5 points

    total is 15 * 1.5 is another 22.5 for a new total of 185 after adding your off cam kills

    K so I opened the file with Winrar but all it gives me is a a file called map[1] and it has no extension whatsoever so im pretty lost.

    you can find the file on guudes website http://www.guudelp.com/map.cgi


    I just tried it... got a "map.tgz" file from the download then simply extracted, went in it in "\usr\java\lp\bin" and then copied "guudelp" folder to may saves folder in .minecraft... and that added it to my list

    gl on doing that too lol

    You'd think that the leaves would get in the way, but they don't. The trees just grow right trough them, destroying any that are in the way.


    strange... I could swear the saplings with leaves over them never grew... maybe he changed it XD... or maybe it's only when leaves are far over?
    also, he's better off separating the trees more so the leaves don't get broken... he needs saplings lol

    In any case... the problem guude is having is one of 4 things I can think of :
    1. inadequate lighting (up high or right over sapling)
    2. lava which prevents trees from growing
    3. too low underground for trees to grow
    4. needs moar time!

    hoping it isn't 3... cause that would be unfixable XD
    for 1, he could put the lantern RIGHT beside the sapling if he wants
    for 2, just remove lava and the lantern should be good enough
    for 4, add more saplings like mentioned in the video... 4x saplings means more chances for one to grow quick

    my guess is 4... but 2 is probably also a problem, cause even if it grows, if it immediately burns up, there won't be any wood lol

    Hey just wanted to say that you're one of the best LPers out there, but i had one question. How do you get the save file for your awesome multiplayer world? I went to the website but all it gives me is some .tar file that i have no idea what to do with. Thanks in advance and have a diamond :Diamond:

    You can't get the multiplayer world yet can you? or has guude already added it?

    I'm guessing you get that .tar file and use an extract program (like with a .zip) to get the world info and then put that in your saves folder...

    edit : removed comment about .tar usage XD - I have been put in my place o.o

    the tiles next to the sapling aren't important either... I made a tree-farm and each sapling only had 1 square beside it open, at 6 high (from the ground)... basically what I did was a 2 high tunnel with branching paths 2 deep where trees would grow... and then dug up from the trees 4 squares (for a total of 6). I also replaced all the walls with glass so I could see when I had trees grown.

    looks like this :

    http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g212/ ... efarm2.png

    the only thing is, I had torches all over the place and was barely under the surface (I think I was still over water level)... I'm thinking the problem is one of those 2 things

    also, TPC, your pattern has 1 problem : when a tree grows, the leaves overshadow your other saplings and prevent them from growing

    Well new 404... I think it's safe to say that you got +0 today XD

    other than that... in case you check here before youtube comments :

    maybe your problem with the tree farm is the lighting up high over your trees? I know I tried with 4 trees in my 404 attempt, and they still didn't grow (I had a jack-o-lantern 2 blocks diagonal from all 4 like what you mentioned)... I DIDN'T have lighting up high though... so maybe just try floating your jack-o-lantern 3 high?

    Also, maybe the lava is preventing it? like it knows growing it will just burn it so it doesn't grow?

    Last thing it could be... maybe you can't grow them that far underground?

    In other news... for the spleef on the arena... how were you thinking of making it? My guess would be glass walls (so the people at the top of the podiums can somewhat see inside), a glass roof for people to walk on and then another glass roof with water on top to block some of the sunlight so the skels and zombies don't burn in the arena... and we leave the spleef floor incomplete until we're ready to play with it
    lemme draw you a picture cause "are you a retard?" XD lol :
    :cobblestone: :Water: :Water: :Water: :Water: :cobblestone:
    :cobblestone: :Glass: :Glass: :Glass: :Glass: :cobblestone:
    :cobblestone: [] [] [] [] :cobblestone:
    :cobblestone: [] [] [] [] :cobblestone: > spleef roof-view area

    :Glass: [] [] [] [] :Glass:
    :Glass: [] [] [] [] :Glass: > spleefing area
    :cobblestone: :VV: :VV: :VV: :VV: :cobblestone: > spleef floor ( :VV: = snow )

    what do you think of that? asking cause I want to start working on it more lol (everything except the snow floor... might make scaffolding for that, but won't fill it in)

    yay new 404 lol

    for the points :
    - 3 from iron block;
    - 9.75 from mobs

    Not much done today as far as points go lol but well you're at 143.25 points on cam!
    If they also count off cam kills, I guess you must be at 160ish... make sure you don't count lava kills, unless you put down the lava to kill them, in which case you count the first killed one.

    kinda sucks we didn't get the 404 thing going last weekend... we could always wait till your solo 404 is done, then do a group thing?
    I say we make a point system for multiplayer 404 if we do it... like having the same point system, but everything is worth 1/4 and the "one shot" challenges can be done once per player, in stead of just once.
    If we want to count points, we should try and get an action plan for the day of preparation XD gonna want quite a bit :
    - 11 white and 1 other wool per player;
    - 2 yellow and 2 red flowers per player;
    - at least 1 cactus, reed, sapling and seed;
    - at least 32 sand per player;
    - those 13 pumpkins nebris found;
    - a stack of 2 of wood should be enough;
    - as much leather and clay as we can get.
    With that, we can complete every challenge XD

    well anyways! that's for a later time :tongue.gif:
    as for progress on the server... minecart station is looking nice, and the arena just needs 1/2 a dark room to be completed, adding obsidian to reinforce the areas around the doors and all around the arena and then putting roofs and adding the seats

    Love your LP, Guude. I started watching you while I was waiting for my account to register on minecraft.net, and now I can't stop. I thought of a few things while watching you:

    1. I'm not sure if anyone ever pointed this out to you, but you can punch/ hit ghasts' (evil babies') fireballs back at them.

    2. The trick with hitting mobs through doors is to hit them through the window holes.

    3. I would love to see an increase in jsano related pranks.


    Can't really think of much else. Keep up the good work,

    ~Wygy


    Wow lol no idea you could punch fireballs XD that would be awesome :tongue.gif:

    the trick with the doors I think he knows... and it's not the window holes, it's that you have to be at the back of the door looking out (you can punch/shoot arrows through it from back to front)

    and for the pranks... we ALL want to see more of that sh*t XD he's getting one ready (as he said recently) but he's not done getting ready yet so it'll have to wait a bit

    Checking day 3 of the challenge... in retrospect, I think your wheat farm doesn't count as a farm cause you don't have the 5 reeds X_x

    saw you put down the lupus and I was like "nooooooooo you won't get the 25 bonus!"

    so yeah... point count! : start off with 117 - 15 (farm that doesn't count) and then add :
    - 15 (bow and arrows)
    - 7.5 (lupus blocks)
    - 6 (mobs)

    so your total now would be 130.5... nether portal, redstone double door and an iron block would add in 48 points

    hey guude, any details on this weekend yet?

    By the way, I'm going to be busier than usual this weekend, unfortunately. I should be able to play for at least a few hours saturday, and a bit more sunday.


    Isn't the weekend of minecraft next weekend? Haven't been following so idk XD

    all I know about this weekend is that we were talking about doing a group 404 challenge run lol
