This is a mature sandbox server with a few simple rules:
1. The North is free. You can do anything you want north of the Great Wall.
2. In the South, you can only build if you find an area labeled with a "build here" sign.
Other Stuff.....
All visitors are welcome, builders are appreciated.
I am online most evenings. Sometimes I'll just leave the server running so others can play. (if you grief, you'll get banned.)
I like to role play. Alliances / Wars / Treaties, etc are fun. I also sometimes make up fictional laws.
Mics are optional. I prefer not to use them myself but if you are older than 16 and wish to voice chat with me, just let me know.
You can take stuff you need from chests. However.....
Everything here is done on survival mode, including all acquired gold, iron, coal etc. I do not use creative mode to "cheat". Please consider that when taking items from chests. I might ban you if I think you are abusing this system.
You might find special ruins in the south labeling an area as a "realm". If you want to be a long term player and are reliable, there are openings for you to become the "ruler" of that realm. We can share resources, you can make up laws, etc., and I might help you build.
Some people who have earned my trust get special building rights.
UPDATES: I've split up days to give a mix of building in peace and role playing. M-Th are either peaceful or easy settings, best for building. Fr-Sat have normal / hard difficulty and pvp turned on, best for role playing. Warning: you might not have your work saved on Saturday.
The main city is growing fast! Please check back every few days for new lots in the south.
I'm looking for help decorating the inside of the castle. Still lots of room inside.

LOL Someone trashed my throne room! Considering all the newcomers, today is sort of an exhibition day. Lots of other miner griefage and I want to not save but there's a really nice house going up in the north and I don't want to drive away good new players.
Needs to think about this. Anyhoo. There's a reward for any information leading to the arrest of whoever vandalised the throne room. We need order! Also, any murder commited south of the border will get a bounty placed on your head. Just sayin....
Well I decided to save and I'm glad I did! There's now a great new home and lots of hideouts up in the north and the south is almost completely returned to its former glory! Here's a friendly warning. Today was exhibition day. But tomorrow I have to get into the nasty business of banning griefers. I hate doing that but it's the only way to make it fun for mature gamers who want to contribute to our world and aren't there just to bash things. That also means I won't be camping out in the nether while the kids get to have the run of place again. (sorry)
Also, in the north, you can be an outlaw if you want. But in the south we have rules. Rules, rules RULES! That means if you commit murder I might have to put a bounty on your head. Or even worse... banishment to the north. (ew) Also in the south we have a curfew, magic is illegal, and sheep painting is forbidden. You really don't want to be an outlaw do you? You want to be an ally. Allies get to trade and enjoy our beautiful parks for free!
One other thing. Sometimes I'll need to turn off gamertags and go invisible. That means two things: 1) I can spy on newcomers to watch for trouble. (sorry, it is what it is). and 2) You could build yourself a secret hideout that the rest of us might never find. Wouldn't that be cool? One thing I promise never to do is abuse my hosting privledges and grief your buildings, even if its a seret hideout in the south that I'm not supposed to know about.
I'm changing the format of this server around. For now I will be going with "invite only" and limiting the server to two at a time. (me plus 2 others). The reason is that I want to work on building my city / castle (started north wing today) and I can't do that while also babysitting a bunch of people I've never met. Also being a "moderator" is too much like work and I hate work. If you want a 24/7 server to play pvp on there are plenty!
Also, I banned many of you today. Please don't take that personal--- just looking for a specific type of player.
Ok so do you remember that time I told you that I promised I would never grief your buildings? Well there's this one little exception I forget to mention. You see, we in the south don't like obsidian. In fact, we think the black substance is down right evil! So you can imagine the horror when I found an obsidian portal up in the north. If I caught a southerner doing that, they would would be strung up and flayed! I sent an underling to go bury it with sand. It's for your own safety really. You never know what abomination might crawl out of that thing!
Monday – Wednesday: Peaceful mode on, pvp off. This is the best time to build your houses / fortresses / whatever. Your work will be saved.
Thursday: Easy Difficulty, pvp off. The monster horde is rising. Start stockpiling those weapons, hide your stuff and batten down the hatches….
Friday: Normal difficulty, pvp on. There’s trouble in the realms.... In the south, you must obey the law or be banished to the north. Murder is illegal, as is all magic use and ESPECIALLY obsidian! In the north, it’s total anarchy, and the monster horde is coming…
Saturday: War has arrived! Hard difficulty, pvp on, fires / tnt on. “Griefing” allowed. Warning to builders: your work will not be saved on Saturday.
Saturday Nights: Special games night tbd. Current ideas are “hunger games”, “castle siege”, “north vs south” etc. Open to suggestions.
Hopefully this will be a good comprimise between being able to build in peace and having fun going to battle. It also lets me not have to babysit!
That is actually where most of my updates have been going including answers to many questions. The city is growing fast! I open new lots in the south every few days so keep checking back if you're still homeless. (or just plant yourself up north.). If you aren't yet on my friend list, please send me a private message asking to go on the waiting list. (my list is now full).
1. The North is free. You can do anything you want north of the Great Wall.
2. In the South, you can only build if you find an area labeled with a "build here" sign.

But I promise you will like it!

Anyways. That is all for now.

The North

Thanks!
BTW, if you want to read about the origins of this server. Read http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/632873-minecraft-xbox-360-edition/66392007. There's more to the place then meets the eye.
Also, the new format is working out well, I apologize to people unable to get in. I'll open it up more as I am able to trust more players.
THanks!
