I'm surprised you people waited so long. Scott used to bother me Friday evening on the dot.


I'll get started.

I haven't even been on the server in probably a month. Imagine my free time is cookies, and my engineering classes are cookie monster. That's a fairly good approximation.

I waited so long because I assume you were tired of being pestered to do it.

I know this issue is slowly being resolved, but what is the problem at the moment? It's not possible to get backups from the host server, is that right?

It's sort of possible. As in, if you go in with your browser and right click on the file and choose download, it'll probably send you a bunch of data (although I haven't actually looked inside that data yet to see whether it actually is the complete file it's supposed to be). It's just that the server sending it is one of the most hilariously broken things I've seen on the web. It'll refuse to work seemingly at random, sending responses that make very little sense (for instance it seems to sometimes just cut off requests mid-flow and complain about the syntax of the request. And then when it does send a response, it's just the data, without any HTTP response headers. I would test what the server does now, because hey, maybe I caught it at a really bad time, but the server (the HTTP server, not the Minecraft one) is down, so...

I'm taking a networking class this semester, so I was actually able to understand most of that.

Not to be a dick or anything, but I would have appreciated being asked before someone (Benkern) built so close to me. In an area that I am pretty sure I've claimed.

I mean, the whole point of demarcating a border with a wall disappears if people are just gonna ignore it.

I'm very sorry, at that time Meekras was dead and the map wasn't updated. The advice I was given was (not verbatim) "build wherever, as long as it's far from anyone else". I chose that area because I thought it was far from anywhere - didn't notice the wall. It was only later that I found the castle to be disastrously proximate. Do you mind awfully? I won't build anything else there if you want to keep your claim.

It wasn't dead, I always had the intention of logging on again. And you could see basically all my structures on the google map. It's not hard to have a bit of a look-around before you build. I'm gonna tolerate this, mostly because moving your structures would require moving the chunks or something and it's not worth it. When I decide to build in that direction, we could integrate your structures into my city or something. Just build the rest of your stuff outside my area.
