    Ok, decided to head over to the DLP MC Alpha server. Looked around and it seems that all of the obvious good spots were taken, so instead of venturing across the ocean in search of a nice cliff I chose to follow through with an idea I had a couple of days ago...

    I'm building the World Tree/Tree of Life.

    I found an amazing circular valley so the idea just seemed to be perfect.

    My Plan:

    Step 1 - Create mining tunnel in the center of valley (I prefer the 5x5 to the 3x3, just feels less claustrophobic.) Farm during the day, dig at night.

    Step 2 - Once I have enough wood blocks (which is going to take forever) create a base for the tree and slowly start working my way up to the desired height.

    Step 3 - Layer dirt two high across the top of my tree trunk, setting up an infinite well in the center.

    Step 4 - Plant saplings in every block of the dirt and wait for trees to grow.

    Step 5 - Clear the grown tree trunks and connect them to the base trunk.

    Step 6 - Repeat steps 4 & 5, moving upward and outward.

    Step 7 - ???????

    Step 8 - Profit.

    Not quite sure how its all going to work out, but that's just part of the adventure.

    Lol, good luck. Here is a link to a series of vids about a guy going through his adventures in Minecraft. Pretty interesting, and if you watch the first 5 or so it gives you a pretty good base of knowledge about the game.

    Edit: There are 40 vids in the series, and they're all about 10-15 mins. I blew 6 hours watching them all D:

    Edit2:This game should be renamed to Minecrack. :|

    Dude, love those videos. Especially when he was trying to hunt down spiders for string and got jumped on. xD

    I'm getting the game right now, so these videos are really helpful, thanks.

    Ok, Imma update with some helpful tips. I've added a mod/wrapper to the server that makes it a lot easier for us. Aside from making it easier for me to ban/kick/anti-grief, it'll have a web interface once the developer finishes coding it. The commands available to everyone are:

    Available to everyone is a set of iron tools through the kit command. Open the chat, type "/kit irontools" minus quotes, ???, have fun!

    Awesome, Vash. I'ma try and connect to the server later. But right now, I'm far too busy exploring this massive cavern full of lava, and therefore, full of diamond! :D

    Ok, having talked to Zombie a bit, I think I'm gonna turn the white-list on in a day or two. Mostly to prevent griefers and what not. I've got Jon and Zombies names.

    Please post your Minecraft account name if you'd like access.

    Yeea. That does seem kind of true. There is a second server running too, now, from when I was testing the setup of the current. I left it running.

    Server One: wethreethieves.com:25565
    Server Two: wethreethieves.com:25562

    Settings from both servers will transfer over, but on a fresh new world.

    Beware, however. Before Monsters were off. They are on now.

    Sooo... uuhhhh... Darje? That tower of yours with the awesome looking lawn scenery and lava spilling floaty island? I sort of didn't realize where I was and.... Yeah. You don't need lawn care anymore. :<

    Is this still free anywhere? It keeps saying that "user not premium." I might have missed the boat on the freeplay option I guess.
