@TheNumberOne (and @East) I have whitelisted a few people without SE accounts but I'm considering not doing it anymore since it kinda goes against the idea of the server. Here's a poll so we can kind of officially decide:

Not that whitelisted players who do not currently have SE accounts would not be removed from the whitelist or anything. This rule change would only apply to future players

@Magenta Was this the exact location? I'm here but I see no wither or destruction

ahh, found him -530 -7

Ok. I got him to ~60% health but I was dying so I disconnected :|

He has escaped the mountain btw (but is nowhere near any buildings)

NEED HELP FIGHTING ROGUE WITHER NOW!!

@Carb Sorry. About to die again and really dont want to lose my stuff

@HelkaHomba Ugh, same

We need more people, or to be better prepared :/

I bailed

I've never fought a wither before

That's fine

He was at like 30% there for a sec right?

And I have economics homework and a brainstorming session with a friend on how to reprogram Hearthstone at 2

I saw it down to 50

It was at 60 when I left

Yeah. At least if no one is on he can't stray far

Unfortunately for me when I relog. He was right above me

But we should deal with him asap (@Magenta)

All I wanted to do was collect zombie flesh :(

@ANerd-I I logged once when he was above me and when I came back on he was far enough away that running away was easy

@ANerd-I Sorry :P

It's fine. As long as I'm done with MC by 2AM (2.5 hrs) to make my "meeting" I'm good.

Killed the wither! :D

I have the nether star @Magenta. You did a lot of the hard work collecting the skulls but killing him was no small task :P Would you mind if we put the beacon at spawn?

Please, just spawn any additional withers in the nether ;)

I'm so proud - that was my first legit, unaided, open-air wither fight :D

@HelkaHomba My first fight with a Wither, I didn't read any strategies. I had no clue that he could blow stuff up or that I even needed a bow. My friend and I built a giant castle to use as a colosseum, and we built a whole village outside of the castle. After nearly an hour of failing, the result was the sweetest looking battlefield you've ever seen in Minecraft. All the houses were in shambles and there were holes everywhere.

I didn't even know he could fly lol

@HelkaHomba Congrats!

@HelkaHomba i wanted the beacon in that area so that I could clear out the mountain. I do plan on building there, but I see no reason for the beacon to stay there.

the problem is that you did do the majority of the work, but I also need the beacon

@HelkaHomba If you go to the Nether Hub, you can get an idea of what the floor will look like. I've gotten it down to needing 15 emerald blocks and 3 gold blocks to finish putting in the precious metals.

@Magenta You can have it for the mining buff while you clear the mountain - then we could move it to spawn. Just ping when you're on and I'll get on if I can to give you the star

@HelkaHomba I'm on now

@ANerd-I I put 2 more gold blocks down and there's 3 gold in chest nearby

@ANerd-I btw, you can move/destroy my nether portal if necessary, no worries

Speaking of projects, how's the volcano coming along @quartata (and @El'endiaStarman)? :P I'm thinking it's been long enough that I'm just gonna plan a simpler spawn base (and probably remove the rest of spawn mountain) if the volcano doesn't get underway by next week!
