Vincent and Alice are currently offline for maintenance and should return within the next 24 hours.

I believe I have fixed the recent string of occasional server freezes. Yay!

Edit: Alice has been restarted. I think it crashed due to Forestry mail again.

Also, I have something like 30 private messages sitting in my inbox now, so if you're waiting for a reply, you may have to wait for a bit more.

While building Vincent spawn, we virtually got no progress, but we were thinking, how about replacing Vincent with James (our old creative server), and then folding any of the changes we were thinking of for Vincent into the next Alice?

James would have themes that would change every 2-4 weeks (with custom texture packs), and we could possibly create adventure maps and release them on a regular basis. Opinions?

  • This update requires a client update.
  • Forestry updated to 1.4.8.6.
  • Plugins for Forestry updated to 1.2.
  • Greg's Lighting updated to 1.1.
  • Some other server-side updates were installed.
  • Mac OS X users may be having trouble with this update. We're looking into it. v7.0.1 (a new update) should fix this issue.

  • 1.3 is out now, but both Alice and Vincent are still running MC 1.2.5.
  • Vincent will be updated to 1.3 within a week likely. The world will be reset.
  • Connecting to a 1.2.5 server with a 1.3 client will get you a "Connection reset" error message.

Vincent will be resetting very shortly for Minecraft 1.3. Until then:
  • We need to build a new spawn. News about will come today or within a few days.
  • We need a theme for spawn too. It looks like we're going for a wasteland possibly.
  • We can experiment with new gameplay. For example, we can do a wasteland where being out in the sun hurts you, or all rain is acid rain that damages you. Suggest ideas here! You only have a few days to get these ideas in!

Ignore the previous announcement (now removed). There was an issue of miscommunication and I wasn't around, but it's all good now.

We'll be needing to build the spawns of both Alice and Vincent soon (very soon for Vincent), so I'd like to ask whether anyone would be interested in helping. You might have to show me some of your builds.

Post on this thread if you are interested.

  • I will be resetting the mining worlds (not the main world; see this page) of both Alice and Vincent on August 1.
  • I will also reset Alice Nether unless there are objections.

I've finally added a donate button! If you'd like, you can help support the server and help pay for the server's bills:
