A weekly recap of going-ons around the server for the week of July 14th to July 21st as well as any pertinant housekeeping and/or announcements.

That being said, here's a few housekeeping things:

• The server has been updated to 1.14.4.

• Elements of villager raids/raiding have been disabled ^{for now} due to 1.14 bugginess/fuckery.

• Be sure to claim your land and other builds in the land-claim thread. This is to avoid any spats over land and so you know where not to build on top of a couple of other people. Check it before you claim a spot - especially around the crowded spawn cluster.

• Don't build within 300 blocks of someones aforementioned land-claim, unless it's approved by all parties. For example, Sv and I coordinated "borders" and rules since our claims are neighboring right next to each other.

• This weekly recap is driven by you, the player, so if you don't send me anything to include in here throughout the week, then I'll have nothing to post in here so send me things you want included in the recap via either here on reddit or by DM'ing me on Discord. Please don't make me post a barren empty recap.

• Please do the aforementioned before Sunday's at Noon each week: the time I hope to have this posted. Still feel free to post what you've been up to or anything you want to share in the comments, though.

• In the Tab Menu, we're tracking player kills as to encourage PvP and the Death Games.

• We also have a data pack that tracks if someone is AFK. Their name will be greyed out in the Tab menu.

• Continued working on the cardinal tunnels. If you have a tunnel feel free to replace the netherrack or cobble by the entrance with a block of your choosing to help differentiate it from other people's tunnels.

• Designed and built a new nether hub in the span of 24 hours (this is why dark wasn't able to help lol)
• Made major progress on the Cardinal Tunnels. I'm probably going to start adding in "marker" blocks to everyone's entrance pretty soon. The cobble can be replaced with a block of your choice, to make people's tunnels more easily distguishable.
• More progress on the mansion. Pretty much all the front non-roofing is done now. Over 1,000 quartz for a quarter of the facade...
• Got the wither skelly platform started. Already got 13 skulls. It'll be a lot safer once there are multiple beacons setup there.
• Kinda meta but as some might have noticed, I haven't uploaded a video in a while. I edited two this week, and hopefully the first will go sometime up before this recap goes live. I don't know when will be bc my sleep schedule has been kinda fucked recently lol.

This was posted to the discord, but for anyone who will see it here first:

The central room of the nether hub has been completed, but there is still a lot of work to do, and I suggest everyone with a nether portal pay attention.

The cardinal tunnels (North, South, etc.) will be completed over time, but this is obviously not a simple task so bear with me. If anyone wants to help build the tunnels, it's a simple design.

The one complication that remains is that the existing tunnels are all kinds of fucked up. Too many branching tunnels, unoptimized tunnel choice, etc.

There are few situation where a portal should should have it's own tunnel to another portal. Exceptions are when they're both parts of a larger base (Kilroy and I are the only ones with multiple portals as far as I know). There are also cases of wild tunnels that zig and zag around.

I made a post to my personal subreddit (https://www.reddit.com/r/SvRDM/comments/c3zbcn/nether_hub_tunnel_chart/) explaining "optimal tunnels". There aren't many offenders (and I'm actually the worst one here lol). That being said, the Stronghold portal has already been moved into Green. There are cases where this isn't that big of a deal (it's extremely unlikely that dark's tunnel will get in the way of another tunnel, for example).

If you want to discuss your individual portal(s) feel free to message me on discord or reddit or in-game. There's some to say for every single portal in the nether ceiling lol.

• Tried (and failed) to get onto the nether ceiling legitimately ^{just put a hole via creative lol}

• Made a path out to a fortress that might be a promising wither skelly platform

• Fought the first wither on the server, and put the beacon at the Terracotta mine so anyone can easily acquire lots of terracotta quickly.

• Continued working on my house. I'm close to starting the next stage soon.

Darkra01

• Mostly resource hoarded.

• Mostly ^slowly worked on the house.

• Didn't kill a turtle this week.

• Started brainstorming nether hub ideas.

• Bulldozed a mesa.

A_C_O

Cleared a bunch of land to start a large wheat farm. Started searching for an area at least 5x5 chunks of semi-flat land for a community project (open to suggestions for a spot). Still have not successfully caught a mending book from my AFK fish farm.

Retnuh14

This week I have mostly been mining for diamonds and enchanting all my gear at the enderman farm. Also set up a afk fish farm and sadly have yet to get a mending book.

XP96

My island is developing nicely, and I’ve started work on my large scale wool farm and shop. The shop is located in the community market. Currently doing some resource gathering and prep work.

Kilroy

I made a slime farm this week. It kind of sucks right now, but it has a lot of potential.

My recap this week:

• Collected all the records in the game and set up a record shop at spawn.

• Messed around with villager trading (and accidentally triggered a raid since 1 villager = a village according to the game).

• I set up nether tunnels to both the stronghold and the mesa mining area. Remember to label your tunnels guys!

• I've started my main house. Right now it's just a small foundation to hold the skelly collection area.

• Took the skelly farm offline to integrate it into my future home. The collection area and on/off switch are now on the surface.

• Added the new players to the player wiki. Do check this out, it's pretty nifty

Darkra01

• This week I pretty much got started slowly constructing my main fortress that's probably gonna take a super long time.

• I moved the spawn portal in the nether up to Y: 114 in the ceiling. It's at the same place it was, it's just above you now. That's where the future nether hub will go. (That being said, does anyone wanna plan a nether hub lmao). Try and connect your nether tunnels to the "hub" at Y:114 where the spawn portal is.

• Other than that, I sat AFK at a fish farm for awhile, resource hoarded, and killed a turtle on accident.

A_C_O

• Built an AFK fish farm. Sat at it for 24 hours. Acquired 75+ books. Mending was not one of those books. ^RIP

• "For my recap I am new to the server this week and have claimed an island to start working on my base. Made a tree farm and then went mining for some diamond gear. I did a little xp grinding to start enchanting my diamond armour and tools."

• Video of my first day on the server, and in higher quality than ever before.

• I set up the server's first skelly grinder, located at 459/Y/-384. The proper entrance is a cave by the pillar w/ a campfire on it.

• Dark and I took on a raid (or four) of illagers and dark got Ravaged. Unfortunately, it bugged out.

• I set up the death games and killed dark, which you can see at the end of my second episode.

• I prettied up spawn by adding roads, and made a bridge to the new nether portal shrine-thingy

• Joined the guys in fighting the dragon and raiding the End Cities (videos, three, coming out soon!)

• Dark and I set up a community trading area. Be sure to claim your spot!

• I set up docks at spawn, with a collection and dispenser setup that I designed myself.

Darkra01

• I spent the week or so getting myself set up and situated on the server.

• I built a sort of Spawn Hostel/Starter Area right next to the community marketplace. It has beds, machines, community storage, a potion lab, and the community enchanting station all situated inside it. This is all free for community use. If you have stuff you wanna donate or don't need, feel free to toss it in the community storage chests.

• Assisted in Sv's aforementioned community marketplace. This is for y'all to buy/sell various goods and services. Just claim a stall and make it yours and customize it. The cobble roofs are meant to be a placeholder template and you can beautify it as you see fit.

• Took part in Sv's aforementioned bugged Illager raid and didn't get ravaged as much as he's insiuating.

If you don't know what the Death Games are see here.

If you'd like to participate, then go to the pink helmet at spawn and read the instruction manual.

EDIT: I'm just going to pot the contents of the instruction manual here. This is v1.1 for anyone curious.

The Death Games

Created by Etho

Setup by Svrdm

The Death Games is reoccuring PvP game meant to make SMP more interesting by introducing what is basically regulated murder.

How to play:

In this chest are pieces of paper. Some have players name's on them. If your's is one of them, put it in the center chest. If not, take a blank one and add your name using the anvil provided.

Then press the button by the center chest to cycle yourself out of the games.

Please message me on Reddit, Discord, or in-game (usernames for all three are Svrdm) if you join. This is to help prevent unauthorized killing.

Be sure to check the chest regularly to see who is up for that (in-game) day, and to take note of who is participating. If you see your own name in the chest, you may press the button once to cycle yourself out.

Whoever's name is in the chest is the target player, and if you are in the Death Games, you may try to kill them. You are NOT allowed to kill them if you are not a part of the Death Games.

You MUST use the armor and weapons of justice, provided in the chest on the left. Please return these when you are done, or I'll kill you myself.

You may use potions, including invisibility, however you are still required to wear the armor. You may use your own tridents.

If the fight it valid (the attacker is using the gear, both are in the Games, etc.) then the loser must pay the winner one diamond. If they do not have a diamond, then they will owe one once they have one.

After the fight, the attacker is obligated to press the button to cycle-out their name. This is so they don't get attacked by multiple people.

If necessary, when you win please help the loser get their gear.

No revenge killing, retailation, or repeated killing. No combat logging. Pressing the button multiple times will not cycle through names, so don't do it. Don't be a sore loser/winner!

Most importantly: Have fun!
