Re: Grau's Great Tabletop Venture

Oooo, this sounds rather interesting. I've never played a D20 table top game before, tho I've been wanting to try one out recently. So yeah, count me in. Also, is this gonna have lots of steampunk elements/fantasy or more along the lines of the actual 1880's? Oh, and if I'm adjusting EST to GMT I ad...

Re: Don't Starve - initial thoughts and opinions

regarding FC's comment about destroying tombstones. I couldn't agree more now. Within the first 2 days of my newest world, I found an awesome spot to call my own. Marble pillars, statues, and carpet flooring, but 12 or 15 tombstones in the center. XD Really want to just smash the tombstones and move...

Re: Don't Starve - initial thoughts and opinions

O.o FC! thank you so much! I for the life of me couldn't figure out which button let me hear the in game description of equipable(and other) items. I'm such a nub.

Re: New Release! (BTW V4.70)

O.o Wow! So. Many. Changes! Hardcore bouncing has me particularly scared. As I know I use the pillaring effect rather extensively when constructing builds and/or putting random touches of finished builds. Question about HC bouncing, does this also apply to when you are holding shift on a ladder/vine...

T_T What more do you want? Are the walk ways not safe enough? Pretty enough? is it problematic that the nether side porta...

Day 137 and so ends the short life of Willow at the hands of a pig no less. May she rest in peace. T_T


Yeah, I can really say I love the game, but I hate winter. the snow texture on the ground really discourages me from doing anything other than basic chores, instead of expanding and designing.

Re: Why Mojang, Why?

aye, like FC said, if you use a repeater or redstone wire to the side of the block each torch used to be on, you can still achieve the same goal. the only down side is that it won't be quite as compact, but the overall effect will still be intact. Try and give it a shot. You may find something almos...

Re: Post your gate designs

Heh, I kinda feel like a cheapskate now, as I don't even use a wall in my ssp world. What I did was find a nice plateau in a plains biome and level it off and build it up so that at every point it is two blocks high. I have ladders located at intervals on ever side so that I can easily get up while ...

Ah, thanks for the info FC. I've been putting it to good use. Just managed toget about 6 or 8 pig huts up around my spider nest. And I've even slain 2 spider queens so far. And by "I've slain" I mean had my heard of beefalo-in-heat kill the first one and a pack of hounds/fire hounds kill t...

Re: Don't Starve - initial thoughts and opinions

So, I just managed to make my first pig house and plant it near my spider nest and beefalo heard. What would be the smart thing to do? Farm the lone pigman for his skins? or leave him to his fate against the spiders and beefalo?

Re: Don't Starve - initial thoughts and opinions

Hmm, here I just assumed gunpowder was just another way to create mob traps. Like set a bunch of it down, plant a pinecone trail for a fuse, lure a mob boss in, and Kaboom! But yeah, other than that I do feel like gunpowder is kinda all on it's own in the tech tree with no clear cut purpose.

my 2 cents might not be worth much, but I'll give it a shot. Honestly, I don't think you need to be too much of an artist to make a good game. It might be cliche, but everyone's gotta start somewhere, and why not do that with this? Use whatever tools and talents you have at hand until you either imp...
