Hello, everyone! It's been about 50 years since I posted anything on this website.

You all remember Kirbyf's Skyland, right? People could come and build houses and monuments and things on a flat floating island. It was wildly popular. Remember that?

Well, forget it!

Soon, there will be a new town. But it will most certainly not be floating in the sky. Much better. Keep your eyes open, for a new button will soon appear near spawn.

Perhaps it will be hidden in the water.

Hello!
I have finally updated the server to 1.8, its the 1.8.1 pre2 release. I hope that doesn't cause issues with the current 1.8 version, let me know if it does.
Well beside that, we are now on vanilla minecraft. That comes with potential issues, no locked storage, grief stuff. If any one has any ideas to limit greifing potential, let me know.
I went with a random generated map, so it is how it is; spawn seems to be in a mountainous area, with some plains. This will present interesting building choices.
You are free to build in spawn, provided its not your main house. Be respectful of others work.

I see that some one has already added a few things to spawn, that's great! Add more!
I hope that more people come back, it was nice bout of activity we had this year.

Hello, We had a recent bout of activity, which was great! But I suspect that 1.8 is the reason many people do not come to play any more. In fact its probably been the main reason all this year.
So, knowing this and knowing something else that I'll let you in on:
Bukkit is the software we run to have our server, and its mods, Unfortunatly Bukkit is dead project now. It won't be updating to 1.8, no reason to keep running 1.7.
So knowing both this, I want to start to run the server on Vanilla 1.8, this is the normal minecraft software.

I'll be making the switch soon, I want to get peoples opinions on if we should use an existing world, or create a new world.

I'd like to add that, going this way, we will lose access to multi worlds, everything in them. We'll lose locked chests(lockette) as well as lots of other mods.
It's a big change, going back to the roots, but as far as I know there is no other server software we could use that is updated as frequently as vanilla server.

Hello, I have updated the server to 1.7.10, the latest version.
I had to disable dynmap, and some other plugins, I'll check for updates to them at a later time.
I see that some people are playing again from before the update, but not that I have updated it hopefully we'll get more to come back.
I would like to see more spawn buildings, and construction, There are some plots and other available land nearby to build on if you please.

Not much else to report.

Dynmap is functional again.
