I resolved the issue with the internet dropping off. It turns out that it was an issue with the ethernet cable I was using to connect the modem to the router... glad that's resolved.
NEW SERVER IP ADDRESS
71.60.196.181:25575
STATUS: UP
LLAMACRAFT EQUALS YES
There are a few problems. My IP address is NOT static. So long as I don't reboot the modem, I keep it for a long time (few weeks) but twice a month plus power outages is still a pain in the ass to keep reposting the IP for this server. If anyone knows how I can resolve this with a minimum of personal expense, I'm open to suggestions.
so, that's it? can people connect to that? How does it know when my IP changes? Maradon! fucked around with this message on 12-25-2010 at 11:25 AM.
No wait, looks like the server is just fucked up. Maradon! fucked around with this message on 12-25-2010 at 11:36 AM.
Server is now up at maradon.dyndns.org:25575 without llamacraft and running fine with the latest version of everything else.
Latest one is right here.
On that note, just as an informal poll, how do people feel about the map? Is it time to wipe the slate clean, archive all our current work for posterity, and start over? Find a new awesome map generator or just go by luck of the draw?
Maybe have alternate map days, say on weekends when the server runs a new map and then go back to the current one during the week?

Incidentally, now that damage is in, I am declaring open season on cactii. Large cactus walls are now serious obstructions, if you erected one and you're in love with it, tough cookies.
Protip: The majority of cacti near spawn were grown and split from a single source block. Same for the reeds.
That said I don't want to lose my house. I've put too much time into it. You can't see most of but becuase most of the expansion is underground.
I'm actually looking at what progress has been made on SMP teleporters right now, but it doesn't look promising.
"Multiworlding" is 'planned' for two existing custom server projects, CoreS and Ourcraft.
CoreS is a private server project and not available for download anyway, and Ourcraft was only just announced and doesn't have a working release as far as I can tell. Maradon! fucked around with this message on 12-27-2010 at 07:39 PM.

Is it possible to write a mod in .NET? If so I can be all over that. Is there a guide or some such?

I plan on tearing down the cactus field, harvesting the sand for glass and replacing it with a hotel for new players. Rooms will have signs outside and a chest with basic useful tools. New players can "claim" the rooms by tearing down the sign post and replacing it with their name.
P.S. I renovated the farm. It's a bit larger and fancier. Since we are taking dmg now, we need a way to reliably regain our health. You can find harvested wheat in the chest near the farm entrance, and turn it into bread at the toolbox nearby.
If you see wheat in the farm that is ready to be harvested feel free to do so. Just be sure to replace it with a seed.

Karnaj wrote this stupid crap:
How involved is farming? Do you need to set up irrigation and harvest regularly? Are their multiple crops? What about raising livestock?
You can kind of technically raise livestock. Animals spawn on any dirt block with grass on it. You can fence(Or build a building with a glass roof) in an area and have sheep, pigs, and cows constantly spawn/despawn(if nobody is in the chunk) in it.
Farming is easy. Build a hoe, right click grass tiles to till them. Random tillings yield a harvest seed. right click seeds on a tilled soil and it can grow in to wheat. Tilled soil within 4 block of a water source block speeds up the process. Tilled dirt will turn dark brown after a few moments next to water, to signify it's been properly irrigated.
Make sure you set your farm up either in a greenhouse style building, or a fenced in area with no exposed grass tiles. Any kind of movement on crops will eventually destroy them, and revert tilled soil back to a dirt block. It's common to just remove the untilled dirt and make a path of cobblestone or gravel going through the garden.
Just like trees, wheat needs light to grow. So place Torches or lightstones around if you're growing indoors without glass/underground. Skaw fucked around with this message on 12-29-2010 at 03:12 PM.

Just think, you could have had FOUR MORE BLOCKS of wheat growing. You missed out man.
It would've saved him a lot of time in building the thing okay.

Alternate map:
69.64.81.164
diadem.minecraft-servers.com (subdomain has not yet been processed)
Mods:
- Procedurally generated rougleike-type dungeon marked by a pillar not too far from spawn. The farther down you go the better the treasures but mind the skeleton and zombie mod spawners.
- Runecraft - Place blocks in certain shapes to create magic such as teleporters.
Hosted by Minecraft-Servers.com (costs me about $11.34 a month for 6 players at a time). The server seems beefy enough to support hell-chunks when tested (at least for 1 player).
Maradon, I made you a full admin on the server. I can import the main Evercrest level if you want. I figure with runecraft installed we can create a teleporter next to spawn that leads to a virgin world. Ghost of Forums Past fucked around with this message on 01-02-2011 at 12:21 PM.

Anyway this sounds like an extremely awesome idea to me. I've taken down the server and I'm in the processing of raring up our map. I'll PM it to you when it's all done.
I'm actually excited to play again.

Great. Once I get the map I'll use MCedit to merge the new world and the existing one. Once I do that I'll create a teleporter between the two and upload it to the server.
To answer your question....
All of those images are part of the procedurally generated dungeon. I used "city of mob," "library," and one other theme (I forgot what) for the "theme" seeds for generation.
I still don't know what rougleike means

I'm downloading the map as we speak. I swapped the server to a horrific hell dimension until the updated world is ready.
Sorry.
Magical bonds between the old world and the new world have been established. Teleporters between the old spawn and new spawn are active.
Server is online and ready at 69.64.81.164.
To use a teleporter:
A teleport rune is keyed to a waypoint rune. Teleport runes look like the # symbol. Right click the center of the # to activate the teleport rune. This will transport you to the keyed waypoint. You must do this with your hands - if you right click the teleport rune with a block you will place the block instead of activate the teleporter.
If you destroy a waypoint you will sever the connection between the two spawns until a new waypoint is established. This will make many people rather annoyed at you. Don't do this.

edit:
There are two rogue-like dungeons. It looks like I messed up the first one when I generated the second. There is no treasure in the chests and the signposts are blank in the first one.
