so my latest project and i do like a challenge so ive decided to do a replica of the burj khalifa (formely the burj dubai) also known as the worlds current largest building. This will be no mean feat as im expecting to use over 10,000,000 blocks to complete it, i will be trying to build it as close to spawn as possible however i will need a 500x300 block space (big isnt it) anyway when building begins i will post screenshots as i go along (expected time of project finish: 6 months) happy building

Update The upgrade is complete.

However Sometime during the weekend I will also have to shut the server down again. It will be very late or early  so it won't likley impact any one.

The server is going to be down at some point tonight,(3-15) or tomorrow(3-16). Upgrading my CPU. So if you can't connect for an extended period, then assume i'm upgrading. Downtime will be between an hour and 3 hours, depending on if every thing goes well.

Burst.NET sent me a paper letter saying they were gonna send a collections agent after me for an unpaid invoice. Lol. We cancelled that service...they acknowledge that. Problem is...the invoice is for $0.00, and paypal (or any other payment options) won't let you send money of 0. So I submitted a ticket for them to not only call their dogs off but to make sure they go into a nasty public bathroom and give themselves a swirly...but I wanted to attach a screencap of this invoice. Idiots.

UPDATE: We are live at 1.2! A few plugins are still not fixed, so we're waiting on those, here's the list:

• Bukkit IRCD
• OKSpamSecurity

Oh and update world is updated for 1.2, the previous world that was there is saved as another world.

On Tuesday we will be shutting the server off so that we can complete the upgrade to version 1.2. We have gotten most plugins we need to run, updated, so we are ready to rock! The upgrade process will take a while, the whole map needs to be converted. Also we will keep a backup of the 1.1 server files and map in the event there is some unforseen failure of the upgrade.

First...lemme answer where I have been for the last week or so.....My House Is On The Market! So I've been a little preoccupied :/ That and some epic work projects because it's entering the busy cycle. But I promise I'm not dead!

As always, here's the old game files for before we update, which will be soon: 1.1 version (Windows and Linux). Here's how to find the files that need to be backed up:

• In Linux: ~/.minecraft
• In Windows XP: C:/Documents and Settings/[USERNAME]/Application Data/.minecraft
• In Windows 7: C:/Users/[USERNAME]/AppData/Roaming/.minecraft
• In OSX: Mac Version of 1.1 /Users/[USERNAME]/Library/Application Support/minecraft

As always, here's the Official Feature List and the often-more-useful Wiki feature and bug list. Also, for everyone asking when Bukkit will be updated, here's their status: Bukkit Dev Status.
