We could lay out a plot of land for each person at the spawn town easily enough. Running off to explore and build another place seems essential to me. I love the idea of having a central spawn-town house. With a nether link set up early it should be easy for people to come and go from spawn town.

I think making reasonably large plots available is pretty doable. Our number of active players isn't too extreme.

It would be easy enough for me to find a nice chunk of desert (probably easiest to build in) or plains and grid it off with roads. Maybe 1 chunk per grid to make it easy to ID your area or to reset it should the need arise. One chunk in the middle for the actual spawn then we can expand out as needed. Everyone can go as far down in their chunk as they want but can't expand beyond it, even underground. That would give us a home base of sorts for trading, the subway (hub dammit), etc. then everyone can go exploring from there. That was kind of the concept on this last map but it never happened, lol.

OK as promised. Running pretty heavy maintenance on the server now and have downloaded a new (recommended this time) bukkit and a new dynmap. Doesn't look like LWC changed. Once server maintenance is done I will update minecraft and restart it with just dynmap and LWC running to see how stable it is.

Alright we are back in business now. The map is going to be a bit out of date but we'll manage. Debating forcing a full render but last time that took like a week to complete, lol.

My prediction for 1.2 is that it won't be happening for at least a month. (No matter how desperately we want jungles.)

The random on the enchant table needs some work. I think there should be limits on the levels and or combos based on the level of the enchant. They could learn a lot from old school DnD random tables.

What I got so far...
50 Efficiency 5, Fortune 3
50 Unbreaking 3, Efficiency 4
49 Unbreaking 3
49 Unbreaking 3
49 Silk Touch 1
49 Efficiency 4, Silk Touch 1
49 Efficiency 4, Fortune 3

Yeah... it's... it's not quite right.

Though this might help if you're going for a specific enchant: http://pernsteiner.org/minecraft/enchant/

As long as I got a plot near an edge its all good since I will expand underground to huge sizes
I expect most people will just build quick houses to stick a bed in as they go looking for wild adventures.
But keeping it a nice central location to meet up seems real useful.
Besides some of us can have fun building empty houses to try out different designs, and then noobies would have their pick of decent houses to begin the adventure from.

DOH, can someone with super powers come and finish my hallway in the nether please and thank you.
Was trying to be more pretty and then it won't let me place blocks since I am so close to spawn.

I think I can.

Do you want the redstone torches for the powered rail hidden too?
