Minecraft
For general stuff about minecraft and so we can connect with folks who can't access tropes forums.
Right now we are waiting to see how all the server stuff is going to work out.

I love the Powered Rails. Other than that, the moderators finally chased of Roundaround from the Minecraft forum, and the GreyAcumen team is getting pretty out of control with their egos. Scared that they are eventually going to spitesue Notch once they get their mods implemented.
The thing I don't like about the current modding style is that, it's very lazy. Rather than putting the mods into properties files inside of the mods and texture packs folder and allowing the mod to be easily turned on/off via GUI, they are lazily asking you to just "drag and drop, get a new .jar if things break". Conflicting mods cannot be toggled at will and must be used seperately, and even modloader seems extremely useful in this primitive style of modding.
I know the whole "Well there is an update every month or so, so why go through that work of making it better when it will break on the next update?" when they realize not everyone goes directly to the next version and some still play in previous versions.
How? If anything, I'd expect an official modding license to decrease incompatibility issues, since everything would be built under one main engine.
once the Mod API comes in, goodbye ModLoader.
Do railroads gain/lose speed with elevation?
ROLLERCOASTERS HERE I COME
The new railroad booster pieces work pretty well. They can boost you up hill and the new detectors work well with redstone.
we have even made a sort of cart launcher. No more bob sled launching of the mine carts :P
For those who have the ip's they should all be working still. It looks like Miijhal is still running hers for the time being.
Problem with detector rails with switches though. Sometimes they do this funky thing where carts coming from the other direction activate the detector rails without passing over them. It's a pain to set up directional switching.
I need to find another map with a large tall plateau and then built a spiraling rail line through it.
Besides of your doing an end to end rail line your not going to worry about cart speed if you properly put in enough boosters. But yet redstone torches are easier but detectors blend into the track.
I turn off Ogres, Wraiths, and when the bugs in the newest version are ironed out, pirahnas (sharks I can deal with. Tiny fish that are bloody fast and hard to hit? Not so much)
