Alright then, anybody else have any opinion on the jack-o-lantern question?

Okay but outside maybe as a restriction? By the way Raust would you mind updating the player lists is you get a chance because I think it is out of order.

Oh, that wasn't intended to be the turn order, but maybe it should be...

And just outside would be kinda meaningless, we can already use fire outside.

This exploit is a little dodgey, but it does give a genuine reason to actually farm pumpkins, and it would still be rather slow and difficult to abuse...

Totally forgot about the fire, in that case then reverse that because then people still have to go to the trouble of lighting a fire to get outdoor light.

Oh, and sothe, two questions:

1: did you send the save file to poppycocks yet?

2: Did you add Thor's info to the back of the Doggy Play Pen bulletin board?

Yeah, I've got it all right. Playing now :).

Also, I can't get your doggies out of wandering mode, no amount of right clicking makes them sit.

Did you write anything in your report so far about them not obeying you? If so, and you plan on keeping that, I need to think of an in-character reason for it.

Hey, I'm thinking about ways to keep things interesting past round 1, when we've got a reasonable base set up and we start getting soulforged steel. Any suggestions?

And if it involves mods, the mods have to be easy-install (no editing of base class files), just so they can be quickly added and removed without much hassle.

As for the writing, I did it as I played, interesting that you did it after the fact :)

Main reason for me building the mill stone like that is because, I was being lazy and didn't have the hemp at the moment to bring it down any further.

Should have built it lower in the first place :P. I made good use of all the redstone you found though, I've seen the tunels at level 5 you made and man.. those are brutal. I like to dig around lava lakes, because it's really just molten light when you think about it, and not dangerous at all, but what you did there... man. Chills.

A few other things which didn't get in the report:

The mystery of a moving dog: I've bred the shit-dogs a little, the funny thing is, that one of the pups ... well.. moved. All of 'em where sitting, but this one somehow managed to move outside on the path, in front of the mill, behind the mill... He seems to be moving in a certain direction while sitting. Really odd. I wanted to take the pictures retrospectively, but then decided I don't want to break that behavior. Might be fun.

Enders hate Barky: I've pushed the playpen up half a step to avoid spawns in that area, however I still often see Enders teleporting there only to be slain by Barky. I don't know why I forgot to mention that. I could use it in today's report.

I can't find a spawner anywhere. No spawner, no melons. It's ugh... No block dispensers either, I could really use a few. I found a lot of gold, made all of the command emblems, used the rest for redstone eyes, weather protected the mill.

I suspect the half-blocks might cause pathing problems. If it means they aren't auto-feeding themselves, maybe you should say they went on a hunger strike to protest the half-block addition :)
