This should fix our redstone & glowstone shortages

[meshy]

Good idea.

@NoLogo – awesome find!

Nearest witches hut seems to be here

Whoever watches the video through first can you add a list of needed items? Looks like we're going to need a lot =D

[meshy]

A possible location: http://map.minecuna.co.uk/#/-142/64/-283/max/0/0

[ghickman]

@meshy – tooooooo slow =P

[meshy]

My location suggested because we will need to half-block an insanely large area around it.

[meshy]

Yours might cut into luton, and will require us to fell a tonne of trees.

[SemVerTsar]

maldito!

[ghickman]

@meshy – how far out from the farm?

[SemVerTsar]

@ghickman Not sure yet, need to watch the video!

[meshy]

Need to re-watch, but seem to remember it was ~100 blocks radius!

[SemVerTsar]

it'll need man hours

[meshy]

*weeks

[meshy]

We can always do the same as we did should be doing with the witherskelly farm, though, and just build the centre, and make it more efficient by flattening the surrounding area at a later date

[ghickman]

@meshy – I see your point about the location, there are more hills over by mine as well so extra time/tools would be necessary! It should be a lot easier [read: safer] to flatten in the over world too. If we build a perimeter then people can add a bit more paving in passing.

@NoLogo – Yea definitely, maybe we should organise another day for diving into it? If the beginning has been laid out and we have some idea of resources we could probably bash out the tedious paving part in a day with a few of us!

[SemVerTsar]

I agree, will sort out a doodle and chase people on it.

Come on @perry, it's not that bad…

[SemVerTsar]

@perry we know you don't really have a life

[ghickman]

Youtube comments seem to suggest a 150-200 block perimeter btw… LOL

[SemVerTsar]

@ghickman I didn't want a summer anyway

[meshy]

;_;

[ghickman]

Mine 2.0

I am probably way to happy about this.

dons foreman's hat

[meshy]

Well at least this one doesn't intersect a mountain :P

[ghickman]

@meshy – The Mountain was just food for the mining machine.

128 blocks in all directions!

[ghickman]

I hate that guys voice.

[SemVerTsar]

yeah but it's 40 minutes shorter

[SemVerTsar]

Have started clearing the floor :cry:

[ghickman]

@NoLogo – did you find the markers I left for the pit?

[SemVerTsar]

yeah

[SemVerTsar]

The blocks of dirt

[ghickman]

@NoLogo – The sand marks the edge of the drop, hopefully I can make a better start on that this evening.

There is an epic cave at the bottom of it so we might want to consider dropping 128 blocks out down to that level? :sob:

[SemVerTsar]

try and get on the mumble at around 8 tonight?

[meshy]

/me is going to have to get an internet connection sorted soon...

[ghickman]

@NoLogo – Can't promise a time, will be in the IRC room if you want to discuss there?

[SemVerTsar]

ok

[SemVerTsar]

[ghickman]

@NoLogo – Probably best we avoid making the half blocked area a rectangle, it'll be 14957 more blocks to lay and clear!

[ghickman]

Current spawn rate is… anaemic. I think we still have mobs spawning in pretty much every direction =/

There's definitely a big concentration somewhere around here.

[ghickman]

Cleared 3 huge slimes out today… I think we might have to dig down

[meshy]

The only ways to stop them spawning are half-blocks, lava, or filling in. Maybe we should build another slime farm instead :D

[ghickman]

I see digging down as the only way to be sure…

[meshy]

You mean -- empty the circle to bedrock?

...you're mad...

... I'm in :D

[meshy]

Then the drop zone would be on a pinnacle -- It will be awesome.

[meshy]

We might have to expand the cobble storage ><
