Bummed to hear VFIII is going to be in 1.9 :/ You summed up my feelings on 1.9 pretty well with the "Even if combat in 1.9 is geared toward casuals and 8 year olds" bit. I'd love to be able to give it a go in 1.8, but I'll play though it regardless.
Thanks for the accept, but I've got one question, I kind of missed the part that the server wont be opening until a certain number of people have been accepted. Any word on how many more, or an eta of when it'll open?
TIME PLAYED PER WEEK: It's hard to say, some weeks it's like 30 hours, some weeks it's like 3. All depending on work
EXPERIENCE WITH MINECRAFT: I started back just before the Pretty Scary update, I think 1.3 it was, played on some randy SMP servers for a while, none of them really stuck until I started playing more PvP in Minecraft, then the group I played with had an SMP server that lived on for a while. Slowly most of that group lost interest in SMP and I was left serverless again, but that just enhanced my focus on PvP. More specifically it was the overcast network and Race for Wool. I went on with that, participated in RMCT 5 in which I actually won it all with my team. I lost some interest in survival over that time, but it's been nearly a year and a half or so since I played SMP and have been fiending for it again.
ADDITIONAL INFO (ABOUT YOU/HOBBIES): Outside of Minecraft, I play the bass occasionally and might very well be addicted to TV shows I spend quite a bit of time working, so my play time soley depends on my schedule for the week.
Why did you choose this server?: I've been looking for an SMP to start playing on again and this one looked pretty neat ^.^ Specifically that custom map seemed pretty well done from the images!
Tell us about yourself: 23 year old, works a lot, minecrafts even more. I mostly just play Minecraft for the pvp aspect of it, but I do love survival once in a while. It's been probably about a year or so since I really played on an SMP server. I usually post videos of occasional pvp on my youtube channel as well. www.youtube.com/user/csarpaul
I agree with the rules? (Y/N): Si.
You accidentally break another player's build while mining, what do you do? Replace it right where it was and problemo solved.
Oooh, a new version? This is something I'll be looking forward to, along with VFIII someday ;D. I'm also considering going back and trying out the dungeons in minimal gear. I feel fairly confident I could take those dungeons on in leather/chain to be perfectly honest, maybe with a mix of Iron thrown in there.
So, I didn't know if I should post this here or on the strawberry jam thread, but I just played through your map for it and for being a 72 hour map, it was pretty fun! The dungeons were all enjoyable, it just got a bit stale running around on all that mycellium for too long :P. I recorded it, but not a mic, so I might throw some music over it or montage it and upload it when I get a spare minute.
Oh also, I could not figure out what was going on with those endermen with the tnt and why I kept getting hit by explosions.
This was pleasantly fun! It wasn't too hard nor too easy usually. Managed to finish it with 0 deaths in like 5 hours, I spent a few grinding pigmen though for the gold blocks
Exactly! At least I'm not alone. ;-; I tried gm1 to fly through and load surrounding areas and landing in them testing the lag there and it's everywhere for me.
I'm assuming you are talking about server side lag and that the game is slow to recognize your actions (breaking a block, hitting mobs)?
Try flying to the next area and see if you are encountering lag.
Hmm, I'm unsure of what's causing this.
Figured I'd report back and let you know unfortunately as is, I wont be continuing the map due to the lag. I don't know what's causing it, but it's now been the cause of roughly 10ish or so deaths before I even bothered bridging to any of the other islands. :/ I wish I could say that was because I was bad, because the map looks fantastic from what I've seen, but that's more deaths than I've racked up on any CTM map and they're all from spawners I've broken coming back and creepers freezing in the distance and suddenly killing me.

Out of curiosity, if VFIII never gets fully completed, would you post a download to the world anyways? I'm so curious to see what you made \o/

I can confirm it was notRAM usage I looked at, it was the C* option in my f3 screen.

It's anywhere from 100-600 out of 4624.
If I'm looking at the right thing :X

Whoops, forgot to reply to you directly and can't figure out how to delete my first post, but yeah. I was in v1.0.2
