Huh, people are posting again. I've got a 3-day weekend so I guess maybe I'll replay Minecraft. There may be some more posts by me in a few days. I just never seem to be able to stick to these challenges.
Monarch Do you have a crash log of what happens when you try to play with Thaumcraft? It's often something small like a missing mod that is required to run it. You could also change item IDs if it's conflicting with another mod.
After a long time away from Minecraft. I have returned! So no one has beaten the advanced challenge? I might just have to take the challenge! (Yay for horrible puns) With sports finally coming to an end I'll have time to play.
Yeah I'll look at the spoilers but for the mods I'm just playing with the FTB Horizons: Daybreaker pack. It's got a lot of new lesser known mods in it so i'll try and incorporate them into the build. Though I think I might put witchery in the pack so I can actually be a werewolf.
So after a long time away I've come back to the challenge. So it seems a modded one has been made. Well time to give the werewolves a go.
This challenge is perfect though I can add in Elder Scrolls lore into my posts!
Day 1: I've been driven from the town... Those fools they never should of messed with Hircine's will. However it's clear that us lycanthropes aren't welcome in the towns and village's. I've located another group of those given the gift and I shall try to make contact with them.
This small cave next to the rocky outcropping will be perfect for shelter from the Daedra that roam at night,
This isn't that small of a cave... I must advise the pack not to attempt to go down there.
Ahh! Curse the nine! Who let a Daedra into the cave!
Hmm I do remember these. I used to enjoy these orange foods. That was a long time ago though. Maybe we can lure some local wildlife into pens with it though.
Skype(Required): shadowminer3 (Although I don't use it much at all, it took me a bit to remember my login.)
Do you have Teamspeak?: Nope
Maturity Level(1-10)?: 8 You can never really answer a 1-10 question with a 10 or sometimes even a 9 it just make me think that they might just be saying that to seem better then others. (I don't know maybe that's just me.)
How long have you been playing Minecraft? Pixelmon?: Minecraft is about 3 years or so now, I've been playing pixelmon for about a year now.
Past Staff Experience: I've hosted small servers for me and my friends but I doubt that would really count as staff experience. I've almost been accepted into a few servers as moderators but the timezone difference was just to much to work out well.
Pictures of Builds(Not Required):
Plugin/Developing Experience: Not sure what you mean by this but if it's experience using plugins on a server then I have a fair bit of experience doing this as I've hosted small servers before. If it's coding I can do I bit of coding right now and as the years go on I learn more from trial and error and some online lessons.
Why do you want to be Staff?: I feel that I know a lot about pixelmon and the different types of people in the world and how to deal with them. I mean I could sit here and type for an hour on what I can do and how I would deal with certain situations but I just don't think that's really necessary. However I understand what a staff has to do in a server and what should just be sent to someone with a higher authority as I've seen moderators get revoked of their positions by admins and owners because of something that an admin should of dealt with.
Why should I choose you over others?: I can give as many reasons as I want on why you should pick me but the truth is it's up to you so I won't write an excessive amount of text here. I'm played Pokemon since I was 7 and pixelmon for at least a year so I understand quite well how to play the game and I know a lot about how pixelmon plays. As I've said before I know a lot about what a moderator should do and shouldn't do. I've hosted small servers before and I just enjoy being part of a community and playing this game.
After the project is over, what would you like to apply for?: Moderator
Anything Else?: I'm not even sure if your still taking applications for this but if you do and want to contact me about something skype or a pm here will work.
Well you asked for someone who has played the magic mods.
Thaumcraft is well different. There's a lot of side mods that go with it so that it blends with computers, railcraft, etc. But like all magic mods thaumcraft starts out by getting the book that tells you how to play the mod. To start out you have have to travel the world and scan items and blocks for aspect points, which you can then use to research the other things in the mod. Thaumcraft really has two stages, the "arcane workbench" stage and the "infusion" stage. The arcane work bench comes first and then you can make an infusion altar and start creating stronger items. However thaumcraft has two other "trees" besides the items and crafting. Golemancy and the crucible tree (I can't remember what it's called). Golems tie into the crucible because you need the crucible to make the golems. But these golems can do many things such as farming, combat, gathering and dropping off items. The crucible allows you to make the special ingot in the mod. It also allows you to get more ingots per ore and a few other things.
Ars Magica is a mod based around creating your own spells and leveling up as a mage. You can create spells that shoot fireballs, beams of (fire lighting frost magic), dig , harvest and grow crops, make rain go away, teleport yourself and other mobs (including players) to (a set place, the nether, or the overworld). It runs a point system where you get points for leveling up or using orbs. There are three levels of points. Green, Blue, and Red. Green allows you to get the weakest spell parts while red allows the best. These orbs can be found in dungeons or by defeating ars magica bosses.
Botania is basically flower magic. You start out by gathering mystical flowers which you can use to make new mana producing flowers. Other flowers you can make include flowers that kill mobs, grow crops, heal players, etc. It also has an infusion altar which you use to make runes. Runes are used to make better flowers and items. There are two types of ingots in this mod, Mana Steel and Terra Steel. (Terra Steel is really hard to make). But the end goal I think in this mod is that you can open a portal to the (Elf World? Not sure what it's called). Now i've never gotten to this point because Botania takes forever. So i'm not sure whats on the other side of the portal.
Blood Magic is well... No... Just no don't try to make new players learn this mod. It has no book to guide you. The wiki is barely working. It's hard and confusing. But if your willing to be confused and try this mod it does have some fun items and really really OP armor and tools.
Those are pretty much the 4 main magic mods so if you want me to try and explain blood magic I can ( I really don't want to though).
If you need help I can write up the guide lines for the magic parts as if you don't know the mods you can restrict progress in the mod.
Well I try to be active and do a challenge but it seems every time I try I notice a new game to go and play, and that challenge is long forgotten. But I will still try again. And about the free time Blazing I don't have much of that between School, Studying, Soccer (Football in the rest of the world), and sleep. Well there isn't much time to go towards this thread. So yeah it's possible that I might post a challenge later today.
Well nice video Turtlemaster014 but I was pretty busy so I couldn't watch the whole thing. But about your recording software it seems fine, your voice is loud enough to hear but it does appear to be lagging your computer.
Well the thread has it's active times and the times it seems to die but you had said you had school/collage (I can't remember) and that is an okay reason to leave the thread for a while. But about the European challenge i'm not sure it will be finished anytime soon but I've been really bored lately so I might even write up some challenges of my own.
Yeah blazing I try to stay away from tech mods when I can but sometimes you have to use tech. But anyways thanks for your input on it.I think I might not use a modpack and spend a while downloading and installing (and fixing mod problems) and make my own little pack.

Monarch, Mikezardx posted on the first page here. Maybe you don't remember because his name was in full caps or something?
Anyways next update will be coming soon, because only my family has a party on and after the fourth of July. It's been a bit hectic.

Does it say "Invalid session (Try restarting your game)"?
If not then try a full computer restart. You also might not be whitelisted, wrong game version, server is down, etc.
