"Minecraft will reach Beta status on December 20th, 2010."
YAY!!!!!!!

from tumblr, [ref: notch.tumblr.com]

And the next game update (with server-side inventory) is coming next week, before Beta

We will also change the license to remove the line that promises all future versions of the game for free. Please note that this change only affects people who buy the game after December 20, so if you got the game for during alpha, you will still get all future updates for free, despite this change. A promise is a promise.

North of the castle that will be the spawn point, there is a small wooden house in the middle of a frozen lake. Inside, you'll find a mineshaft. This mineshaft is to collect stone to make a Free-To-Take mob system, the design of which is here:

Once we have 45000 stone, (Oxifire) will begin this construction. If you all want all the mob drops you can handle, please mine here and leave me your stone!
Oh, did I forget to mention the best part? You can keep anything you find down there other than stone! Even diamond! I just would like your stone, please.

I implore you all to visit the site regularly to keep up with the updates and the rules, which are constantly updated in the forums.

I implore you all to visit the site regularly to keep up with the updates and the rules, which are constantly updated in the forums.

Here are the rules for all that have missed them. Ignorance is no excuse. Enjoy.

Welcome To Crazy-Fools.co.uk, new or old, we recommend you to keep up to date on the rules.

[COMMUNITY e.g. server and website]
1. Respect other players, if they wish to be left alone, leave them alone, if they require some help, give them some help, if they don't want to be killed, don't kill them. Be friendly to each other. So no harassment or stalking.
2. No excessive swearing or offensive language. While we all like to have a joke, excessive swearing is a big no-no.
3. Account sharing on both forum and server is forbidden, we are increasing our technologies to track this.
4. DON'T TALK IN CAPS, ITS REALLY ANNOYING.
5. If you have an issue, PM or /msg a mod, helper, or admin.
6. Talk in ENGLISH, keep other languages to /msg and pm. This allows anybody to join in the fun and conversation.

SERVER
1. No silly stupid buildings, e.g 1x1xb towers, offensive signs.
2. No offensive statements in signs, this will get you banned.
3. No begging for helper, mod, and admin.
4. A pink name [like Broonies] can be obtained for a small donation of 300GBP*
5. Ask before you teleport to a player, it could result in your death otherwise. [and we won't restore your items.]
6. At times when the server is full, keep active, otherwise you could be kicked for being AFK.
7. If your banned from the server, appeal on the forum.
8. PvP will only be enabled in PvP areas only, if you require a PvP area to be created, ask a mod.
9. No destruction of creations that are not yours. So no griefing or thieving.
10. No Hacks, inventory or other. This includes glitches.
11. Do not enforce these rules by yourself, ask an available helper, moderator or admin.
12. You can use tnt, obsidian, adminium, lava or fire but please be careful with it.
13. Ask before you teleport to a player.
14. Do not go AFK at peak times. (Away from keyboard)
15. Please do not duplicate items, strict enforcement on rare items. NB, See list below.


PVP Rules
This section may change regularly so check often.

1. Please do not harass players constantly. Do not teleport and kill.
2. Do not kill people on their land, unless provoked.
3. Do not attack moderators.


Breaking these rules can receive a warning, kick or ban.
If your behaviour is deemed unacceptable, then a mod will still ban you.

Do not be an arse.

A Tunnel System had been built for player to travel safely either from Spawn To Frozen Peaks or Frozen Peaks To Spawn.

A Tunnel System had been built for player to travel safely either from Spawn To Frozen Peaks or Frozen Peaks To Spawn. The tunnel system is abit long but it is better than going through hills, monster, ect. at night ! The fast way pit is very safe to use. It is design for Fast and Safe Travel from surface to the Tunnel System. Water ladder were built to fasten your way up to the surface from the Tunnel System. The entrace of the tunnel system is located in the middle of The Big Cobble Castle (ASA HQ).

Thank You, Safe Travel !

Wow! Hello new members

I'd just like to welcome our huge amount of sign ups tonight, wow, hello there!

I'd just like to welcome our huge amount of sign ups tonight, wow, hello there!

In other news, not much to report:
First of all I'd like to give my thanks to the following users for their donations: Flightster, adamorjames, Yigg and brother_blood ! Your continued support helps the server live on! Thank you!

Couple of new features this week, some will be of use to you and some will not too.

Xmas trees have been tweaked for basic verification that their not bashing into walls or things, and they can also now only be planted into dirt, or grass.

The server now backs up the map every 6 hours! This is great considering we shouldn't lose the map again, or have to take a week back in time to retrieve it.

You may or may not know that we were seeking helpers to help [heh, how'd you guess?] us out a little since our huge rush recently [player limit is now 30, and we've already reached that! WOW!]. So I'd like to congratulate our newest two helpers, Flightster and tuatha1337, welcome aboard! We may/may not be still looking, we'll see how we go over the next couple of days.

Our live cartograph of the map is looking great, wow. I'm sure all of us can actually see things coming together now, it really makes me proud of you guys!

Also, on a more serious note, pvp has been disabled due to numerous complaints and whilst on this issue, may I give a strong reminder that just because your a donator, does not mean you cannot be banned from the server. We're beginning to see issues cropping up, in which we may have to take action.

Oh, and one last note - you can be in this space -- right here -- too! Just click on the feature Submit News at the top, and select Community! Need more information? Check the topic in the forums.

Enjoy your time on our server!

With thanks to the mod team, helpers, and our regulars. You know who you are!

Oh, on a side note. Look out for a MAJOR overhaul coming soon. Stay tuned!
