It's QUOTE-TASTIC! Oh boy! Oh joy!
No idea of these 1.10+ update ideas, but I guess modding support, Sky dimension, and fish are included.
It was one thing to hold out on 1.8, but I feel we are far enough behind (compared to the 1.9 final pre-release) that an upgrade is almost warranted even with another interim shift.
i can not wait that long =/ already painful enough not being able to play on 1.8
I agree. It sucks that we've been waiting for almost a
month now. The only reason we're waiting until 1.9 is because Notch didn't complete the biome coding properly in 1.8. Even when 1.9 hits, we're going to have to wait
another week or so, so the kinks can get worked out and our plugins work properly. This will probably make us wait until October 18 anyway, but I'm hoping it can happen sooner. Also, we're DEFINITELY NOT waiting until MineCon to update the server. Oct 18 is bad enough. :V
Question about the village/city, is it okay to build myself a "second home" there? Just curious if there's any sort of restriction.
Sure! Sparda mentioned that there still aren't enough
residents in Hakurei City. I've built a second home there myself. There should be plenty of space around my home if you feel like building one yourself.
yeah. as the video before shows, a lot of people are practically relying on Strafe for entertainment. =P but as for me, i am having fun building still

Step right up! Step right up! Come see the
Amazing Speedy Tengu Twins! Watch as one
disappears before your very eyes after levitating in place! Watch as her sister runs and jumps around at insane speeds, while
hugging every cactus that she can find! Not to worry, folks. She doesn't "die" like the game would have you believe. She'll be back up and taunting you faster than a blink of an eye! Come see the
Delusional Old Woman! She only
thinks she's 17! We also have the INCREDIBLE Juggling Magician. She's so good, she juggles
with herself! We have TWO new games that are sure to keep you occupied for hours:
Hide the Feathers, and
Sunny Hunt! Take a ride in our EXCITING new
TNT Cannon (under construction). Take a swim in our giant pool inside the
TOWER OF DOOM! All this and
more! Just come on in and watch your step!
Alright, seriously now. I'm perfectly fine with people building stuff while we wait for the update. In fact, I encourage that sort of action. Just give me a heads up on where/what you are building, so I can add it to the list of future schematics.
HECK YEAH! Those villagers don't belong with their STUPID FACES. I hope those villagers are prepared to fly sky high. :V
That's fine. Blow up the villages. However, I would like at least one to remain intact, so I can see what Notch actually has planned for the ugly bastards. Quests, etc.
btw Strafe, is it possible that I can start building my mansion for the underground on the surface and you move it into the underground later on? Since I'm not going to work on the underworld till we move with 1.9 I have some time for that. (Well I'm close to be done with the walls and water, when we move to 1.9 I can start cave the area's for the city of oni :V I'm pretty excited for that. This is going to be like Sparda's city, just underground ^^, but it shouldn't lose the flair of an old city, I hope so)
I haven't made the schematic for your underground area yet, so feel free to go ahead and build it down there. I can save a schematic above-ground like you're asking, however the schematic bounding fields save "air" blocks as well. This could cause some issues when placing the mansion within the cavern, as the "air blocks" within the mansion schematic could overwrite any walls or structures already down there. It's really up to you.
I'll inform everyone whenever it's time to get ready for... the... schem--
The current world will remain as the main map.
Huh. Well, nevermind then!
We'll see how everything pans out once we update.
