a round roof would look cool!

i tried to give the left pillar a standard sloped roof using half blocks and wood blocks but it looked terrible, were you thinking dome or like in the artists rendering that bobby posted?

How would you feel about it being made out of clay? Will it look over the top? If I don't build me little bridge then I have 20 stacks going spare, I don't know how many bricks that makes... But I keep spotting more, I seem to have picked an area where there's lots!

Also! My friend is coming to visit this weekend and we're gonna try and get him into minecraft yyyeeeaaaaahh!! I'll be very dissapointed if he doesn't end up making something really clever...

5 stacks of brick, 320 bricks.
i think it would look good, we couldn't make it entirely out of bricks, but it could have support lines in brick, that would look cool.

I know where there's MORE!! But it sounds like a plan, I might shelfishly make my bridge first, but I'm thinking that only be 20 or so blocks. Then I'll bring over the clay to spawn. I like adventuring though so I'm quite happy to go find more if we need it and I'll avoid people areas and stuff...

well we'll have to mix it with either wood, cobble or smoothstone anyway because you can't have brick steps

we have a new player on the server, andy_landy, he's building just south of spawn

WHEY!

Today I found the most ultimately windy and massive network of caves ever - I was running round for hours just picking stuff off the walls (including 7 diamonds). I'm gonna go in and have a proper explore now I've managed to light it all up (about 150 torches!).

If I don't make it, tell my wife hello

i have no strong feelings about that one way or the other

feltchy and dimmery, the redstone is hooked up for the station, although the station is preparing for an aesthetic overhaul if ellie is to be believed.

if you wish to start building out a station, you need to link up the line to your area with the green track outside.

I think Ellie should post a picture of her station so I can copy it it's awesome!

I've been too busy with Mount and Blade and various other things to play Minecraft and I feel really guilty about it.

you should.


i'm gonna treat myself to playing some minecraft tonight, just once i've got my photo editing out of the way!!

we are all relying on you and you let us down.
is ellie going to start building the ellie/emma station?
ric wants in on that station too, if you guys don't mind. I'm happy to sort out the redstone for it, but i'm out of iron and gold

I'm currently on a mining mission as I have yet to find gold and I have very little iron, so it might be a while until I actually start building any track. I have to do all my chores before I play again, otherwise I get beatings

The power sockets are shocked at the man's behaviour.

I think once we have all the stations and tracks we should do one of those fancy maps

yes! i agree emma! and i'll sort things out tonight editing is going surprisingly swiftly. i aim to be finished by tea time!

and i just gotta say, i love you guys!! hahahaha
