Cool Tips

A few tips to maximize your minning/building speed:

If mining a large column/pillar of sand, a good way to accomplish it is to dig under the stone or dirt that it is resting on. Under that dirt or stone, place any partial block (such as a torch or slab). Mine the dirt or stone and the column falls into the placed object, quickly destroying the sand. This can also be used to mine Gravel but it will not generate flint. (as on MinecraftWiki)

To get rid of tracks easily and quickly just drop a bucket of water around the area where the tracks are to be removed and the tracks will instantly break for your collection, then just fetch the water back in the bucket, same can be done to remove redstone.

To remove water or lava from a area just keep placing sand or gravel on the top layer of water and it will drop to the bottom and fill it to the top.

On servers with craftbook you can easily build or remove fence walls, read the steps here to build a fence gate. if you right click the gate sign with any tool the wall will be made or removed u only need to build or remove the top 1x1 of the fence wall.

Most of you may already know these, but worth mentioning for new players.
More to come soon, if you have any cool tips you wish to share email me at minhajarefin79@gmail.com.

First meeting with Donald

As Loytoy was mining to get some cash he found Donald in the mines.


Donald was all afraid and scared with not much water for him, he looked at Loy with his big black eyes and Loy felt he should take care of him, so he build an aquarium around him so that he can live and enjoy.


Donald is so happy now with all the water around him he swims and swims all day.
And Mr. Loy has one more child to take care of, and beleive me he does.

So basically if you mine for more than 3 days underground good things will happen to you, Loy found his dream Squid, you might find yours.

I was wondering how members of this awesome server where thinking of this server. So interviewed a few of them,after a few long minutes of immature behavior. they answered me quite nice!

Waelz: "what do you think of this server?"

Fearthegame: ''Same''
loytoy: ''I JUST LOVE IT'' *loves spanking people*

Waelz : ''what do you like about this server?''

Ocalien: "Working,Working with other peopleand showing off my structures."
"i like to be given alot,i like to spend money"
loytoy: ''i can build wherever."
''the server is all about the people who are on.''

OCalien: ''fearthegame pasted it to me''
*alien followed game and robin as he had nothing else to do*
loytoy: ''it was chanont (*loytoy's son*)who found it

Recent Research Findings

I was trying to help LoyToy and while googling I found there are a few CraftBook IC's not mentioned in CraftBook Wiki, following is what I found. You may require permission to make them.

MC0500, MC1500, MC1510, MC1511, MC1512, MC1513.
6 ICs, 4 unique, 1 is just a self-triggered version. Here's the features list:

MC0500: self-triggered check if player is online (player name 3rd line)

MC1500: check if player is online, needs clock (player name 3rd line)

MC1510: Message specific player: players name on line 3, message on line 4 (May need to req. permission, not in at the moment.)

MC1511: Message all players online. Message on line 3. (Req's permission)

MC1512: Message all nearby players. Message on line 3. The distance considered nearby is on the 4rd line. (Req's permission)

MC1513: for broadcasting message to nearby players. Message on third line, The distance considered nearby is on the 4rd line. (Req's permission)

You can follow the same info for MC1510 on wiki to make all these.
