For those who weren't aware, there's a new villager trading hall at 916, 51 - for all your enchanting needs!
The trading hall has been expanded to include:
An Iron Farm (ty Bauke)
A Moss Farm (ty Bauke)
A Fruit/Veggie Farm [incl Melon/Pumpkin for trading] (ty Bauke + ty ICN for hopper-fying it)
A Potion Farm / DIY section (ty Sparksman2112)
There's also a direct Elevated Line (air-subway or tram for those fellow non-UK) that takes you there from Skelly Station (which is a stop away from Town Center Station) (ty Delphi)!
The Trident Inn has opened! You can locate it by the East Docks in Town. Want to stay a night? No problem, we offer rooms. Want to see the town from birds eye? No problem, we have a lookou tower. Want to have the steak? No problem, we offer the best steaks on server!
Bastions are one of the few places in Minecraft that still scare the bejeezus out of me, but Bauke has gone and built a whole froglight farm in one! This is massively impressive to me. If you haven't stopped by and seen it, make sure you do! There's even a spot where you can sign your name on the wall.
I haven’t been on the server in a bit, last time I logged on was to build part of an underwater base. I might just make it look abandoned and scrap the project
Since some time I've been building a hotel-thing, which I intend to make really, really tall (a skyscraper, essentially). And recently I also got the idea that it'd be pretty cool to let different people design different floors however they want, to make it a cool place to visit and explore once enough floors are made. Let me know if it's something you'd be interested in!
It's been genuinely a decade since I've played, but decided to hop in and at least for now set up my own little cottage on the river (-130, -510). Need to reacquaint myself with a lot of mechanics and find out what all's new since then!
I finally consider my guardian XP farm “finished” and ready to use! Faster XP rates than an Enderman farm, except it doesn’t work if other players are in the nether, because it uses portals to gather them all in one place.
From the nether area in town, follow the Prismarine path out to my mushroom island, and then a Prismarine spiral staircase (thanks Starman!) into the sky to get to the killing chamber.
It also collects drops, so help yourself to all the Prismarine and fish your heart desires!
dingdorp found a great spot for a zoo (-45, -261 for the loading dock, which connects to two oceans thanks to a canal they made, and has tons of space to expand down towards spawn), which could be a fun community project. Both creature wranglers and habitat builders are needed (don't feel any pressure to do both if you'd rather not). Please feel free to have fun and let your creative juices flow on exhibit designs.
I created a mini game called Duck Hunt (located north of my house, and east of the cafe).
You borrow a bow and some arrows, flick tye lever on the right (as well as the left if you want a harder challenge) and shoot as many chicks as possible as they fall. Then enter your score in the book and return your gear. If possible, please try to grab the arrows you missed while shooting, bu crouching into the gap.
Foxes below the game will... "dispose of" the chicks you missed, so lag doesn't become a thing.
It may take some time to reset, as it relies on chickens laying eggs to fill up the hoppers/dispensers.
This is probably a newb-y question, but can someone explain to me how the iron farm works? I know where it is (in the villager trading hall) but I have no idea how to operate it and it'd be pretty useful lol
I just put together a chess set if anyone wants some games in their game. It's next to the Duck Hunt game and the café, on Therapia Lane south of town.
I tried to join the server today but I spawned into a hole surrounded by slabs so I could not jump out and since it is spawn protected I could not break a block below me to build out. Anyone new will be instantly trapped.
Since there isn't a new weekly thread yet I'll post here -- someone built a dam (labelled as "water treatment plant") at 1470,-450, right to the west of my main base (at 1540,-390), blocking boat travel on the most direct route between my base and Norriston's canal (and thus the most direct route by boat to Tildestown from my base). It's a large barrier and built out of I think quartz and deepslate, and it's got a cool bypass canal with a grate to only let through water, so clearly some effort was put into it.
I don't want to be an asshole destroying someone else's build or building a janky canal to bypass it that ruins whatever reason they built it. But I don't see what it accomplishes other than blocking me specifically (I'm the only one living on the blocked-off section of river) from travelling back to town or anything else on that same stretch of sea by boat without taking a huge, winding detour. I don't know who built it so I don't know who to ask about it, and I have a bug that prevents me from writing spaces on signs so communicating that way in-game is even more difficult than it otherwise would be. So I'm not really sure how to best deal with this situation.
A cute little addition to town: sewers added a little while ago.

I haven't been able to log in lately because of a lot of work and life events, though I'm excited to see all the changes when I log back in again!
Peep -9700,-250 on the dynmap to see what I've been working on, lol.

I made a little cronjob that will tabulate play time hourly:
