~~Takin about miiine craaaaaaffttt~~

Well just in time for doubledusks 6 month anniversary I have decided we are getting a dedicated minecraft server again. It is already up and running. I didn't like our old hosting, we could not figure out some lag issues for the majority of our users. I am trying something different and unfortunately more expensive. The first month is 1/2 off the price. So I will decide this month if this is worth having again. I'll decide based on feedback from viewers, streamers, and looking at actual play time and seeing how often the server is dead and such.

So please explore, have fun, build, fight and everything else that makes minecraft great. As of right now the cap is at 50 people. I don't think we will get near that number and I expect to lower the cap once we see how many people need to be logged before the server gets mad.

Maps are going to be available on request if you would like to have on for single player. Along with any/every time we have to start a new map I will upload old maps. There is an automated server restart at 3am ( I think it's pst, not sure)There will be warnings in chat before the restart. The map saves every 3 hours on the hour. Bukkit is installed but I have no plugins for it yet. (I only had a very few hours between getting it up and running and leaving for work which I spent playing on the server)

If it isn't obvious, this is my project (glueguy). I don't want people disturbing mistawho or adventure about it. This isn't to exclude them, I don't want them being bugged about something they have no part in. If they want to help out, then I/we will make it known they have access to the server and can be contacted for server issues.

I've been debating about a whitelist. Not sure whether or not it is worth the hassle. But it will give me very good information about who is using our server. Let me know what you think the server needs. Doubledusk@gmail.com

Ip address is: sc31.servercraft.co:7493

Enjoy and tell me what you think.
