The WSGF server (WSGF Craft) is being moved from being Insider only to allowing access to normal forum members, all be it via a whitelist. If you would like access, please read the rules below and visit the whitelist request thread. The rules are mostly standard stuff, be polite, respect other people and their creations, don't grief, server OPs do have the power to ban you, even if you're not online.

Rules:

  1. Do not destroy other peoples creations.
  2. If you are going to edit someone else creation, ask them first, if there not about, leave them a signpost.
  3. Do not push people into lava.
  4. PvP is only disabled until an arena of fighting ground is created, afterwards combat will only be allowed in these areas.
  5. Be polite to other players.
  6. Don't steal other people equipment or blocks without their permission.
  7. Lazy design is discourage, this includes building things like unsupported Skybridges.
  8. The bulk of any transit system should be above sea level, there are two reasons for this, 1, the server is on survival mode, so avoiding the surface defeats the point, and 2 if everything is built underground then there no point in having the server generate a map as you'll never see anything on it.
  9. Hacking / cheating of any description will not be tolerated.

While not a rule my wife and I found that 4x4 lighting grid is the most effective for ground lights. gives you zombie preventing coverage and doesn't waste near as many lights. (plus the MC overlay looks really awesome in night view).

So, I would highly encourage it.

1.8 is currently in the process of going full release so the server is being prepared for it, so the map and the game server will be down for a bit, I'll update you when everything is ready.

New world is live, old world is live, new overviewer map generated (although might need a bug fix code as its putting the spawn location in the wrong place), old one has been archived.

Server status: Ready

Edit: Also note that because of the pre-release allot of the bugs have already been fixed, doesn't mean there aren't any left mind.

Owning to an issue of the spawn location moving, the server has been taken down until I can find another sutible seed and get the spawn area protected, hopefully I'll be able to finish this before the end of tonight. Apologise for the delay.

Update: I've found a new seed, and correctly got the spawn location, but I won't be able to build the spawn point till I get home tonight, shouldn't take me long to do, so I'll say server will be up before 18:00 GMT, or 4 hours from now.

Here is a little snap shot of what the world looks like so far, with a few areas marked in black, largely I want allocate a reasonable sized space for a communal area / building near the spawn point and these are the areas that are currently free.

Personally I would like to allocate area C, so so the lower right hand portion can become the transport hub, and upper left become the communal building / store house. I would rather not use E as any tall structure there could obscure the WSGF logo on the map.

It would also be nice to have paths of some sort connecting the buildings. And atm I'm thinking that any rail system should circle the outside of the current whole build area and ether be one directional, or have two tracks, using the communal building as a HUB, and from there it should go off to any outlying regions.

That's my opinion, all view points are welcome though, we also need to think about the shape and site of the communal building.

So if I have this right, you want the bottom of C to have the trainstation and the upper portion of C to be the storage room ?
But all those other plots are unallocated at this time ?

Train-station and the connection to your harbour yes, and the upper section not just a storage area but maybe a workshop of sorts, a furnace room, a large space people can plan redstone circuits in, or just something pretty with beds, chests and coloured wool. That was my thoughts, but it is a communal area so I was looking for everyone opinions or if they thought it might be better else where etc.

All the other areas have nothing in them at the minute and no one has sign posted them saying "MINE, KEEP OFF"

Almost seems like we want this mod ? http://xshade.ca/projects/towny/

I know the server is vanilla now, but that is kind of a neat concept.

So pretty much like our castle area for the common area, right?

Also, was talking with CJM last night about doing a new mob spawner (for arrows, sulfur, bones, n such). We were looking at one of the mountains to hollow out (possibly at the not designated area near A and B between Skid and CJM, if it is not claimed) because I didn't want another big bulky ugly thing in the middle of the map. When I get time, I can map out dimensions and such on a duplicate map i made using the server seed.
