SE Game On!

Mr Smooth

20:00

Just died because I tried to sprint jump a ravine and it didn't sprint :(

Was gunna win the whole thing too.

James

@MrSmooth How many are now left?

Mr Smooth

@James Two, @OrigamiRobot and @DanRasmussen.

James

Come on @OrigamiRobot!!!

Video is done, I wont make it public but if anyone wants to hear me ramble for 7min let me know.

Ah there

If I had just gone to the right to get to the cave I wanted to, I would never have run into you @MrSmooth :)

@RonanForman I would honestly not worry about the map being too big to make it too hard to find people

Mr Smooth

Man now I can't wait for next weekend, coz I really wanna win. Don't think I'm gunna be as lucky as this time though. 3 kills and 3 golden apples.

Dan Rasmussen

Ta da. Now what?

OrigamiRobot

20:14

@DanRasmussen WINS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

4

Fredy31

So who won?

Dan Rasmussen

Good game, all.

Sorry about your tree farm, @OrigamiRobot

OrigamiRobot

Did you blow up on purpose at the end?

Dan Rasmussen

Yeah

OrigamiRobot

@DanRasmussen It was not good

Dan Rasmussen

20:15

It needed a dramatic end

OrigamiRobot

I was like "WTF is that sound aaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh"

Dan Rasmussen

@OrigamiRobot Yeah I'm glad I brought that bucket.

I wish I had a bow, tho.

OrigamiRobot

I should have just hit you with my sword.......

Dan Rasmussen

My only foray with a spider ended poorly though.

Actually I realized you could have just dug out the block I was standing on and I would have fallen to my death...

OrigamiRobot

Yea I panicked

Dan Rasmussen

20:17

I would've done the same had my base started filling with lava.

OrigamiRobot

I found another base, but the wheat was not grown

Dan Rasmussen

Where was it?

OrigamiRobot

The tunnel down ended at lava

Dan Rasmussen

Hmm. Mine ended at bedrock.

Ronan Forman

@James Why not?

OrigamiRobot

20:19

All that jumping up the stairs was what did me in

Dan Rasmussen

@OrigamiRobot Ah, yeah, I actually built stairs to keep my hunger sated.

OrigamiRobot

@DanRasmussen That was my next step

Dan Rasmussen

@RonanForman So, uh, what do I do with this 100gb of video I now have?

James

@RonanForman Thats the whole point of the game, if you want it to be a 3hr match then we can not start near each other :)

Dan Rasmussen

@OrigamiRobot Lol, pun..

OrigamiRobot

20:20

@RonanForman You were very near me when you blew up

James

@OrigamiRobot Gratz @DanRasmussen!!!

OrigamiRobot

Were you going towards a torch?

Tristan

so who won?

Ronan Forman

@Dan If it's good you can upload it. But I doubt anyone else has enough footage to bother with theirs.

Stick a thing explaining what happened at the beginning.

@Tristan dan, if you can call it winning.

James

@Tristan Dan won

Dan Rasmussen

20:22

@RonanForman The best part was when I was chasing @OrigamiRobot around, dropping lava on him. The rest isn't terribly interesting.

OrigamiRobot

@DanRasmussen did you just hang out in my base after you invaded?

Ronan Forman

No offence @dan

James

I think it went down to 3 people Very quickly

Dan Rasmussen

@RonanForman None taken.

@OrigamiRobot Yeah, I couldn't figure out how to get out.

@OrigamiRobot I was at 1 heart and didn't want to run into a skeleton.

Ronan Forman

@Dan Use your best interest.

James

20:22

How did you guys meet up in the end? Did you hunt @OrigamiRobot down??

OrigamiRobot

@James He found me, I ran, I starved.

Fredy31

@RonanForman I'll have to listen back to what I said, but I think it would be interesting I put it in too.

OrigamiRobot

It started raining and everything

Dan Rasmussen

@James Yeah - I tracked his nameplate till he stopped moving, then dug down and dropped lava on him.

James

@DanRasmussen Haha, Nice :)

OrigamiRobot

20:23

I escaped the lava

James

Yeah but that is a flashy entrance :D

Dan Rasmussen

Unfortunately. Had I had a bow, I probably could have done better at that point.

But I like the flair of flushing you out to starve. =P

James

I do think bows are key

Ronan Forman

Hopefully next week will be way more fun.

OrigamiRobot

@DanRasmussen I heard you digging, I was just alt+tabbed

Dan Rasmussen

20:24

Also, I stole your iron. ;-)

@OrigamiRobot I was wondering why you didn't run..

OrigamiRobot

@DanRasmussen I had so much more

James

@RonanForman Make the map large man, even if it just ends up after the time limit we have to call for a gathering and a final show down :)

OrigamiRobot

@DanRasmussen I came back as fast as I could. Just in time

Dan Rasmussen

@James We need a mod that slowly shaves chunks off the edge of the world, pushing everyone closer and closer...

OrigamiRobot

There were no cows or pigs where I was.

Dan Rasmussen

20:26

@OrigamiRobot There were like 4 pigs right outside your base entrance when I came by...

OrigamiRobot

I was living off a couple chickens and zombie meat

James

@DanRasmussen That honestly does not sound that fun

OrigamiRobot

@DanRasmussen Dammit!

Ronan Forman

@James I didn't realise the size was exponential to length. 4x less size is about 20x shorter length.

OrigamiRobot

Well you dont even know where my entrance was.

Dan Rasmussen

20:27

@james Depends on when it starts and how it does it.

@OrigamiRobot True... I assumed it was the cave with the torch. But I could be wrong.

James

@DanRasmussen It would very much screw the people who were started on the edge, their bases would just be gone

OrigamiRobot

@DanRasmussen That was a fake base. A trap.

Who would put a torch there?

My plan was to wait around a corner for someone to come in

I had full iron armor within 10 minutes

Tristan

So how fun was it?

Dan Rasmussen

@James You'd need some sort of warning. Start everyone in a circle around the world. People would either fight over the center for a secure base, or live like nomads around the edge.

James

@DanRasmussen However... What if everything sank or raised to a flat plane??

Ronan Forman

20:28

Again sorry for ruining everything.

OrigamiRobot

@Tristan It was fun, lessons learned.

James

ie, Fill the world with lava from the bottom up to a flat land..

Tristan

@OrigamiRobot Awesome

Ronan Forman

If only we could play more than weekly.

Dan Rasmussen

@James That would be cool..

James

20:29

@RonanForman Dude, stop saying that, you didnt ruin anything!

Dan Rasmussen

@RonanForman You didn't ruin anything at all.

James

I think the only person who didnt have fun was Nose... and with an attitide like his he didnt have a chance to have fun

Dan Rasmussen

@Tristan It was fun, in a heart-pounding "omg I'm going to die from this creeper" way.

James

Clearly we are all in here eagerly talking about next weeks and how we can add to the situation

@DanRasmussen Dude, I had to do a double take on a red flower and a shady corner... I thought it was @Fredy31 again :D

OrigamiRobot

I can handle creepers with no problem. I lost all my hearts to skeletons

Tristan

20:30

Next week is 100% guaranteed I'll be there.

James

Then there was a weird combination of a tree w/ snow on it and a black and white sheep that also looked like player name bars :D

Fredy31

Well, I didn't have blood on my shirt at the end. Except mine.

Dan Rasmussen

Even if there wasn't a ton of PvP, just the increased risk of losing was intense. You don't get that in single player. You can always just start again.

Tristan

how many people turned up?

Ronan Forman

I enjoyed the time I played.

Dan Rasmussen

20:31

I opened up a hole in my ceiling to stab at a spider I heard and a creeper dropped in on me. >.<

@Tristan 9

Ronan Forman

9

James

@DanRasmussen Yup, that 'Oh god I need to live!' feeling sticks around longer knowing people are looking for you :)

@Tristan Were 9 of us :D

@DanRasmussen Haha, Murder Holes :D

Alllways go with a murder hole :D

OrigamiRobot

I kinda screwed myself with wood...I ran out of picks and had to scramble to get more.

Tristan

Now I'm super excited for next week.

James

I felt well prepared for everything but the PvP.

Dan Rasmussen

20:33

@James Of course the creeper blew my base wide open but didn't kill the spider, who took out more hearts.

OrigamiRobot

@James I have never been good at getting food

James

I did play alot of practice 'find a good hiding spot, get the right saplings' games yesterday

Ronan Forman

Well there was more of that than I expected.

Dan Rasmussen

@James I think that if we don't increase the size, we should at least say no PvP for 5-10 minutes or something.

Cause I know some people couldn't even get a workbench.

James

@DanRasmussen The time basing wont work.. cause Ill just follow you for 5min :D

Dan Rasmussen

20:34

@James Then while you follow me, I can make a sword and whatnot.

James

Yeah I killed Fredy the first time while he had just placed his bench.. and I got John the second time just chopping down his second tree

Dan Rasmussen

If you want to waste your precious opening minutes just following me, go ahead.

Tristan

@DanRasmussen Was there an issue with players spawning to close together?

James

@DanRasmussen So can I.. Just illustrating we need to not see each other at the get go

Dan Rasmussen

@Tristan @James Yeah

James

20:35

@Tristan I could see John on the hill besides me

And Mr_Smooth and NoseBleed were also close by us

Dan Rasmussen

@James At least you didn't start halfway under the ocean. =P

James

@DanRasmussen First time I started at a depth level of 18 :D

Dan Rasmussen

@James That's right... Yeah. Odd. Lol

James

It was a very nice cave with lava glow at the end :)

But we fixed all that up pretty quick :D

Dan Rasmussen

Who else recorded?

James

20:37

The map size did change my strat though.. I always spent the first day just looking for a good place for a base... This time I spent half the first day making sure to clear the area out :)

Ronan Forman

So what difficulty to play next time?

James

I did, but its 7min long, hehe

@RonanForman With out it being on hard we will not starve to death

Soo I am torn between going lower or not

Ronan Forman

@James I didn't think of that.

Medium takes us down to 1 health. So a breeze could kill us.

James

@RonanForman Only other thing I would say ot keep in mind is going to the nether with a smaller map cause its 1/8th the size of the overworld

@RonanForman I think I would be good with that honestly.. It still a huge thing and one sword stone or arrow does more than a heart of damage

Mr Smooth

@OrigamiRobot That was mine, the tunnel doesn't end at lava, you could turn to the right and continue on to the ravine I died at. I found enough gold for 3 golden apples down that tunnel.

James

20:40

... I suppose we -could- remove the scaling code from the server/client of the nether...

@MrSmooth Oh wow. Nice man! Glad I died to you :D

Ronan Forman

@James How?

Dan Rasmussen

@MrSmooth I didn't see any gold at all. =[

OrigamiRobot

@MrSmooth I dug into the actual cave and backtracked to the stairs

James

@RonanForman Scaling I assume you mean? The world actually Isnt smaller, it just scales the coordiantes when you go to enter/exit it.. we turn that off (its a variable in the class that defines the nether) and it goes to a 1 to 1 ratio

Was fun messing around with it for Aether :)

OrigamiRobot

@RonanForman I say 2. Starving is BS when you only get 1 life.

Food is hard enough to come by sometimes.

Ronan Forman

20:43

It'd be pretty anticlimactic for the recording.

James

Hell if we are going to edit the mod to make it so the nether doesnt scale

we could make you die of starvation on Normal

Only thing is it might be a real pain in the ass to do depending on what files the mod itself changes

(ive not worked on a mod in too long of a time to recognize the class file names)

OrigamiRobot

2 mins ago, by OrigamiRobot

@RonanForman I say 2. Starving is BS when you only get 1 life.

James

@OrigamiRobot I like the starving

It means the survival of me to try and win depends on more than dodging people's swords and arrows

Its not just the people I have to fight against

OrigamiRobot

@James Going down to 1 heart is enough

Ronan Forman

I don't think we should do any editing, for the nether will clip to a existing overworld portal. So the getting out the map shouldnt happen.

Mr Smooth

20:46

Man, I know it musn't have been that fun for everyone else (except maybe @OrigamiRobot and @DanRasmussen) but I had a blast. Killed 3 people, and was down to one heart for a while, scared of death.

James

@RonanForman Its not out of the map that is a concern

Ronan Forman

@James Mobs and fall damage.

Mr Smooth

Haven't had that much fun in Minecraft in a while

Wish I could play it every day

James

Its that I can make a nether portal, hop into it and back out again and end up at YOUR portal

Mr Smooth

Also, fall damage death was BS.

@James That's a great mechanic

it was used in the Mindcrack series

Ronan Forman

20:47

@MrSmooth The bit I played was fun.

OrigamiRobot

@MrSmooth I would like to get a GSE PvP server going.

Mr Smooth

it makes it good to ambush people

James

@MrSmooth Makes the nether VERY tricky

Yeah I need to finish watching season 6.. Guude didnt have all of his videos posted..ive swapped over to Vintage Beef

Mr Smooth

@James I still haven't watched past ep 4 or so yet, don't spoil it for me

James

er, seasone 3.

Ronan Forman

20:48

@James You should watch vintage beef part 3 of the mindcrack game.

James

Ive watched 5 Guude episodes and 1 VintageBeef

Mr Smooth

@James At one point in the game when there was just 3 of us, me and @DanRasmussen both had the same idea to ambush someone's nether portal, but no-one had made one yet

Ronan Forman

They've all finished now. Kurt's was the best.

Mr Smooth

@James I'm watching from all the perspectives, that's why I haven't caught up yet.

James

@MrSmooth Ahh nice.

@RonanForman Ill have to check it out then

Ronan Forman

20:49

I did that after part 3.

James

I am saving Etho for last

Ronan Forman

Seeing as I'm on holiday all week maybe we could play midweek. I'm sure my parents wouldn't mind if I went nocturnal.

James

He has such a calm quite voice I am interested what he might sound like in this game :)

Ronan Forman

All forghtnight in fact.

James

Id be down for an impromptu game.. Just I work so after that would be optimal for me

hell Id hop into one now just to try out map sizes and such :)

Mr Smooth

20:51

@RonanForman Hell yeah, I'm heaps up for it. Looks like I'm going to be moving sleeping back till at least about 8 in the morning so I don't have to wake up early, I can just play before I go to bed.

James

afk a min or three, Making RL food so I dont starve :)

I am on mumble, feel free to scare the crap out of me there

Ronan Forman

I think everyone can fit in at 0000UTC. tell me if I'm wrong.

@James I did that to @Origami he was sleeping.

OrigamiRobot

@RonanForman You and @Wipqozn

Ronan Forman

And by play I meant isn't working.

James

@RonanForman I think thats 1pm for me..

I will not be able to play until 6PM PST

Dan Rasmussen

20:55

@RonanForman @James @MrSmooth I'd be in for another if I'm free.

Ronan Forman

I can't right now.

James

Maybe its 4pm?

@DanRasmussen If I could get the server to work on my server Id host one

Ronan Forman

You could just use a standard map an say no going past 512 in any direction.

Dan Rasmussen

@James I have a server I can use.

Ronan Forman

Okay how about 0700UTC? I'd just need to get up early.

Dan Rasmussen

20:56

@RonanForman We'll need to be careful, though. It'd be hard to keep track of.

James

If I am counting on my fingers right thats 11pm my time and should be easily doable

@DanRasmussen Good connection?

Mr Smooth

@RonanForman This is a difficult rule, it's not very obvious you've broken it unless you check a lot, and by the time you check you may be way out of bounds.

Dan Rasmussen

@James It's over WiFi, unfortunately, but I've never had a problem with it personally. The internet itself is fast enough, as is the PC

@RonanForman 0700UTC is a little late for me. I'd prefer 0500UTC or earlier.

James

@DanRasmussen Ill give it a go.. Only thing we need is a way to spawn randomly

Dan Rasmussen

@James I've got a small survival server set up atm. you can jump on if you want to test your lag.

tbdm.dyndns.org

Wipqozn

21:02

@OrigamiRobot That was pretty funny.

James

@DanRasmussen 5 bars :)

Tristan

@Wipqozn Did you see what I said about that "The Friendship Express" dvd?

James

was it random I spawned in an NPC village? :D

Dan Rasmussen

@James Awesome!

Wipqozn

@Tristan No.

I've been afk

Be leaving again in a moment too.

Dan Rasmussen

21:03

@James And no, it wasn't. You also get to guinea-pig my permissions system... Lol

Tristan

@Wipqozn Oh. Well the DVD has the unaltered "The Last Round-up" on it... So if you wanna own the episode in which Derpy speaks, it's only $10

Wipqozn

@Tristan oh okay. cool.

returns to being afk

James

@DanRasmussen Disconnected.. Do we have anyone else interested? I do not mind 1 on 1 but 1 on 1 on 1 on 1 would be more fun :)

Dan Rasmussen

@James You broke my server....

James

@DanRasmussen What?? how?

Ronan Forman

21:10

Okay green to times you can easily do. Yellow to ones you can and red to ones you can't for reasons like work.

doodle.com/7kyyr43c53pmx37m

Dan Rasmussen

@James Idk... Lol. But you crashed it.

@RonanForman How do we do yellow..?

James

@DanRasmussen I only logged off man :)

@DanRasmussen Go to Calendar View

Ronan Forman

@Dan Maybe there's no yellow then.

Dan Rasmussen

@RonanForman I am, I only can check yes or no.

Fredy31

I'll need the new G.SE Intro for my video

Ronan Forman

21:15

Use greens for now. I'll try and find an option to turn them on.

Dan Rasmussen

@RonanForman Are we marking when we can start or when we can play?

Ronan Forman

Shirt I've closed it.

Okay, open again.

@Dan play.

Dan Rasmussen

@RonanForman Alright.

Why can't I save my file as HD in WMM? =/

James

Whew, 240 clicks later, I am done :)

Haha, looks like we are all free this evening :)

Ronan Forman

Dammit, the ifneedbe option isn't editable.

James

21:22

Thats Yellow?

Mr Smooth

Watching my own video. It's alright, but I speak a bit softly, and there are parts where I don't speak for a while.

Ronan Forman

Yup.

Mr Smooth

I really wanna see @OrigamiRobot and @DanRasmussen perspectives.

Dan Rasmussen

@RonanForman Bah. I filled it out, THEN made an account.

James

@MrSmooth I would love to see yours and mine :)

LIke what you were saying when you were eyeing me on the hill :D

Ronan Forman

21:24

Hopefully we'll get a better game when we play again.

James

@RonanForman Is the server running? Is it up? Is the server up? Is it?

Mr Smooth

@James For me there were 3 chunk errors in that area, but you just ran over them like you were flying, so I was worried that if I tried to fight you I would fall.

James

@MrSmooth LOL I could have just run backwards and been ok!?!?

Dan Rasmussen

@MrSmooth WMM is not cooperating.

Mr Smooth

@James You ran to the wrong side. You went left, when if you had have gone right I would have been too scared to follow you.

James

21:26

@MrSmooth drat :)

Truth be told I wasnt looking for you.. I meant that is the same area I killed John in. I was running back to an area around there that had a good place for a cave entrance :)

Ronan Forman

Easter should help us quite a bit with this.

@Tristan @John @Wipqozn @OrigamiRobot @IanPugsley Can you fill this in? doodle.com/7kyyr43c53pmx37m

James

We honestly seem to be free 6pm to midnight PST every day, 4 to midnight tonight

Ronan Forman

I need to do some tests to see why recording was breaking.

James

@DanRasmussen Still around?

Dan Rasmussen

@James Yeah, I had to restart. WMM. >=/

James

21:35

@DanRasmussen 204.152.195.100:25567

Ronan Forman

If you're going to upload it please mark it as a test game.

Dan Rasmussen

@James Hardcore?

James

@DanRasmussen Aye

Test ping though and such

Dan Rasmussen

@RonanForman Lol, with pleasure. I may just upload a lower quality version.

@James "Outdated server"

James

Should be 1.2.4 hard core..

Fredy31

21:41

@RonanForman I would need that new intro. For my video

James

Oddness, everything tells me its 1.2.4

Fredy31

Youre doing a new game?

James

@Fredy31 I dont think we are putting the intros on them, just marking em as test videos

Fredy31

That was not the true game?

James

@Fredy31 It was a game, we had fun, but we all hope the next one will last a bit longer for more of us :)

Fredy31

21:43

:p

James

And I am testing to see how my server handles people right now

Yer wlcome to log in as well, info is up top

Fredy31

Yeah

Wont have time for the game

Ronan Forman

We're pretedeng they're tests so we don't feel like such failures.

Fredy31

lol

I'll post it... Still as unlisted?

James

Hey I took out a guy and knocked down Mr Smooth a bit, I call that a win :)

Fredy31

21:45

Basically, this games come back on who has a gank on who

James

@Fredy31 204.152.195.100:25567

Fredy31

Told you I wouldnt be able to play the full game

So if I come, it will be spectating

James

Its not the full game, Its just me floating in the air trying to wonder why Dan cant log in

Ronan Forman

No, with only 2 vids post public as it's not to much spam.

Dan Rasmussen

@James Oops. Forgot the port.

@James I don't like my spawn. Big empty desert. Lol

Ronan Forman

21:50

Rendering the intro for you now.

James

Really? it put me in the jungle on the edge of the desert.

Ronan Forman

I won't post a ME3 vid today if you're going to be uploading these now.

Fredy31

ok yeah we will do that

I'm ready to render

Ronan Forman

I don't mind either way.

Fredy31

Only the game or I try to fit your intro in?

Ronan Forman

21:52

Don't bother, just put a link to the mod thread in the description.

James

Dan and I just tried out a duel, very interacticve no laggy lag

Fredy31

Laggy Lag? Is there any other kind?

Ronan Forman

db.tt/aKtsU86p

Dan Rasmussen

Unfortunately my schedule changed. I'm busy for the next 5 hours or so. So feel free to go without me, or test another setup, but if you'd like to play when I'm back that'd work.

@RonanForman Awesome

Ronan Forman

I think we need to get one of SE's servers for 'community building excercises'.

Dan Rasmussen

22:03

@RonanForman We totally should... With all the money they pump into Gaming.SE in prizes and whatnot I'm sure something could be worked out.

Ronan Forman

@Dan what's your email?

@Dan Okay you can delete it now.

Dan Rasmussen

@RonanForman It's not letting me. =/

Ronan Forman

...or not. Either way.

Dan Rasmussen

Cause you responded to it I guess. Can you delete your comment with my name tagged>

Ronan Forman

It's probably cause it's too late.

Ask a mod.

Dan Rasmussen

22:09

@RonanForman What was that info for?

Ronan Forman

YouTube account.

Dan Rasmussen

Ah, gotcha

James

Hey Ronan, Dan and Smooth and I so far seem to have prtty good ping on this server

Dan Rasmussen

@RonanForman "Confirm my recovery email address: w•••••••[email protected]"

And I don't know the favorite past time of the dutch...

Ronan Forman

That's good. Do you have the mod installed?

James

22:14

Yup

Care to join us and check it out?

well me, Mr Smooth is heading out :)

Ronan Forman

@Dan That's the right email and kidnapping children.

Dan Rasmussen

22:28

Gah. Windows Movie Maker crashes and Lightworks can't read my .avi's.

Ronan Forman

@Dan Are you into the account?

If so I can sleep.

Dan Rasmussen

@RonanForman Yeah I'm in. Still fighting with the videos tho.

Ronan Forman

That can be annoying.

Dan Rasmussen

It shouldn't be this hard. =[

Ian Pugsley

22:52

@RonanForman I'm not sure about my availability this week yet - I know Wednesday and Thursday are probably out

Fredy31

@RonanForman How big was the map for the Ultra-Hardcore alerady?

Making the description for the video

Dan Rasmussen

@Fredy31 512x512 supposedly

How are you doing your editing?

James

felt smaller

Fredy31

Fast.

Already uploading

James

and not all of us had enough footage to edit :)

Dan Rasmussen

23:03

Alright all - I'm out for a few hours. See you then.

It's been a pleasure.

James

Cya
