Re: Inactivity Thread

[spectrumwars]

Thanks, I feel like I have a good grip on it now and I didn't even get confused

Thanks! Always good to hear that my powers of education aren't too rusty!

Sweden is actually not that densely populated. We have one of the smaller populations in Europe in relation to the size of the country, yet even in our end of the woods they have installed these high-speed cables. It's hella cheap too, even with the fastest options.

Swedes do get something for their insanely high taxes after all.

In relation to the size of the country, Sweden isn't densely populated. But the population is concentrated on the coast and to the south, and is highly urbanized, with much of the country being frozen wilderness.

Australia is even bigger, but despite their self-cultivated image as rugged outback-savvy outdoorsmen, they're actually one of the most urbanized countries on the planet, with a higher proportion of their people living in big cities than most European countries.

The taxes are indeed ridiculous.

I suppose most of the population is concentrated to the southern part of the country, with the north having way more untouched wilderness. This reflects in the fact that houses are rather expensive in the south and way cheaper in the north where there are less jobs and so on.

[Brendanan]

Oh yeah, that's about right with Australia. We do still have the outback living style, but it's nowhere near as common. A large number of Aussies don't even know what it's like out there. We've got most of the population squeezed in along the east coast, and around the edges of the country, and out west is pretty much a giant sand pit... We just take pride in our beaches

Sorry about the capitalisation sret :p Think it was that autocorrect thing... And taxes are always ridiculous

[Arrowave]

Been to busy IRL. Ill be back to working and digging soon.

[Brendanan]

Been taken by RL again... Perhaps some time for the server on Sunday though.... Give it 4 weeks and I'll have nothing to worry about in life but work, minecraft, and my own personal hobbies

[sret]

Another holiday coming up?

I like how you ranked Minecraft above personal hobbies


edit: Argh, every time I decide not to quote it puts my post on a new page

Well guys, I don't know if you missed me or not but I'm back, kinda. Sorry for my long period of inactivity, i've been going through some pretty hectic RL stuff over the past couple of months including moving house, jobs and lots more, and completely forgot I like Minecraft ^^. I can't promise I'l be as active as I used to be, but I'm going to at least stay active on the forums, and help out where I can, can anyone update me on what the status of the project is, what needs doing, what i've missed, things like that?

[sret]

Np at all, we're always glad to have people come back. I'm not sure if you had disappeared by the time we built the atrium and apartments but the big project we've started after that is the farm caves. We've also worked a little on the spawn village and we're discussing plans for the forge.

The digsite for the farm caves are located past the village in the desert. It's easy to find but I'm sure somebody can show you the way. We've dug quite a lot but have plenty left. You should have a look at the specific threads for further information. We also have a few newer members that have been rather active lately so jump on and get to know the guys and I'm sure they'll fill you in on stuff.

heres a very horrible map I made in 2 minutes

[sret]

Nice picture xD

It pretty much sums it up. You don't have to walk long at all after the village before you see reeds and the stone structure that holds the storage at the site. There's also a few torches on the way there.

[donnyh13]

lol ty, and ya I didnt estimate the distance very accurately

[sret]

I wasn't taking a shot at your picture, just letting him know he doesn't have to worry that he'll get lost and not find it =P

[donnyh13]

ahh i see, i wasnt offended etc, just wanted to put it out there its not a scientific calculation of exact distance to the CM XD

[Brendanan]

Wait, what!!! That's NOT drawn to scale??? Come on man, I expected better of you :p lol

[donnyh13]

aww man I know, i feel ashamed to show my face any more, so for now on im going to wear a paper bag over my head and never show my face again, I will never forgive my self

[Brendanan]

:O I'm getting a skin with a paper bag face now!!!!!

[sret]

:O I'm getting a skin with a paper bag face now!!!!!

About time!

[Brendanan]

Is y guy THAT ugly?

[spectrumwars]

Gah, things are heating up on my other server. Among other things,we've had a bunch of people come back after a long absence and start improving their bases, so I've been digging subway tunnels out to them. We're also about to kill our own Enderdragon, so I gotta get ready for that. I've been slacking off on working on the digging and farming in Dwarf City, but I'm not gone for ever, and I will be back soon.

[Dr. Steel]

Argh, finally have some time for this

[Brendanan]

:O snate hasn't forgotten us!!! jealous you have time... 3 hour maths exam in 15, and instead of the last minute study I should be cramming in, I'm here

[Arrowave]

In the wake of the holiday season, I might be a little scarce around here and the server for a few weeks. I will still visit here about everyday and get online occasionally though.

[31trainman]

il be gone till I get time again to dig.

[Brendanan]

Just informing you all that I will be gone for a week and a bit, because I'm out rockclimbing I should be back here by the 4th of December to see what I've missed. I hope everything goes well while I'm gone... Don't forget to enjoy yourself

[sret]

Don't forget to enjoy yourself

You too m8

I don't think you'll miss a lot though, there seems to be a lot of inactivity at the moment and I personally haven't been on for maybe a month and will probably barely get on in the near future. We'll bounce back like always though
