Jan 29, 2014Mathy posted a message on Spheres in Vanilla?This is a very interesting feature. If I recall correctly, there was a way to make minecarts invisible as well. If that is true, it might be possible to have a sphere with an opening without the obvious mass of minecarts.Posted in: News
Will be interested to see if this is used in other maps, perhaps by the creator of the Code. The final destruction sphere shown in this video showed obvious similarity to Code III's ending, -

IGN:
Math02u3
Age:
24 years as of February 7th.
Past Experience:
I am a hard-working member, both online and in-person. Though administration duties are certainly a burden at times, the payoff comes from the joy and smiles on the faces of the people I have helped.
I have learned how to effectively resolve debate and handle situations agreed upon by both the victim and the perpetrator. Occasionally this is impossible, in the case of griefing or hacking, in which I weigh out the possibilities and decide which one would be best for the server and the victim.
I have had much experience in administrator and moderator positions. Attached below are evidence of such. I will also include some builds I have worked on, including with others.
If a player was disrespecting you and other players, what would you do? How would you handle the situation?
I have actually seen players do this on another server which was shut down due to personal reasons from the owner, which I would prefer not to share. My system always gives plenty of chances, but I am open to different systems if you would prefer:
Though I may be generous, most of them get it after the second warning. I have only had to have one person go through all of these tiers, which was unfortunate. I was reluctant to ban him, but I ended up deciding that it was for the better.
My strategy to deal with players who are breaking rules is to imagine them in real life. I wouldn't yell at them, but politely remind them that they are breaking the rules. With this strategy, I can avoid showing exasperation that would normally show in anonymity.
How can you help the server?
I have knowledge of basic commands, am able to control myself in stressful situations, and have past experience.
Basic Commands: I understand many commands, and throughout I have begun to learn many plugins. Each time, I came without knowing how to use them, but I persevered and learned each needed plugin. At this point, I have trained my mind. This, coupled with my fast typing, will allow me to make decisions and execute them at a rapid pace, allowing for more discussion to take place.
Control: Stressful situations dig into any human. To counter this, I use face-to-face relationships, in which I would be perfectly able to control emotions, as my base for talking with players who are possibly facing the same situation and are taking out their anger. Another good way to think about it is the aforementioned—players breaking the rules are probably stressed and taking out anger, so we as a staff team should try to help calm them, not add to the stress. That is why I give polite warnings rather than the aggressive kicks.
Experience: I have had experience in many levels of staff, which has allowed me to make both player-player contact and more passive bug-fixing and plugin editing. In this way, I am flexible and open to take the role of a moderator if there are none available at the time.
How experienced are you with Bukkit and WorldEdit?
I have learned a few commonly-used plugins at this point. I am a fast learner and am willing to dedicate time, so I will be able to learn any more that we will use if it proved needed.
Minecraft Experience:
Have played after October 31st, 2010 with the release of the Halloween Update. I had been interested in the game some time before then, but that update caught my eye and I realized that this would be a fully-fledged game, flushed out into its best capacity.
Contact:
I am available on skype (chat only, do not own a microphone or camera) at mathy.mathified.
Also available on email, at [email protected]
Finally, through the PMs on the forum.
Proof of Work:
As an administrator, I worked on building and mostly planning out the most effective server.
I also worked on a prison server as SrWarden (effectively head-administrator)
Also enjoy building, but I am not an expert at it.
-----------------
Thank you for your consideration. No matter who you choose I hope you have a wonderful time and that your server succeeds.

Rule of coding number 1: If you have a lot of code, small changes make big bugs. It doesn't mean the game is programmed badly, it means it's REALLY large and many features rely on other features that rely on other features that rely on other features that rely on a changed feature.

Oh, right, the texture pack. I liked that too, good work.

And in PVP when someone is winning you can hit him with knockback and have some time to regen.
It has its uses.

You may lag a bit, around 100 is where you have good ping.
Depends on the server, I can get only 50 from one server and still extremely competitive in PVP.
