I highly doubt that many people here don't know what Minecraft is, but:
Minecraft is a game about placing blocks to build anything you can imagine. At night monsters come out, make sure to build a shelter before that happens.
Website: www.minecraft.net
It's a game which uses Java (in other words, it's multi-platform and will work on most any OS you use. Including some phones in the near future) and is very...blocky... The stuff you can do in it is only limited by your imagination though. Youtube it and you can see what some people have gotten up to, ranging from a 1:1 scale USS Enterprise (from Star Trek) to a fully functioning computer built entirely in the game. It's lots of fun and rather addictive if you're into that kind of thing.
The game is still technically in beta, but you can prepurchase now to use it in multiplayer. Alternatively, you can play the solo version for free, but the solo version really isn't the same thing (Mining/crafting isn't involved and there are no monsters. You're given an infinite amount of most of the blocks to play with and build stuff but the adventure is removed from the game).
Anyway, I think it'd be cool if there are several people here who play to maybe start our own server! We could get a teamspeak or something going on it too so we can all talk while we play. Just an idea.

I do not actually own minecraft, I just use my cousins. I have never played on a multiplayer server, I just go around and blow everything up with tnt, and building huge towers. I'm not creative enough to do some of the things people have done.
Unfortunately when I lost my hdd I lost one of my favorite worlds, I had just a normal house/base that wasn't too big. I then went down 10 blocks at a angle from a corner and created a huge 100x100x4 expansion chamber lined with bricks. I used lava streams for lighting with glass around them so i didn't light myself on fire. I had 5 of these all the way down to the bedrock bottom. It was pretty badass, if I do say so myself.
If you are lazy like me you can actually use cheat engine to hack the game and give yourself unlimited numbers of blocks in which you already have. So unlimited diamond or gold or iron or my favorite TNT. XD

In this ever changing world I seek only death and destruction, so that this world shall be annihilated along with all the scum and ignorance of the so called human race.

As for people like wedora-san, the server could have designated builders,from those with more experience for example, and spawn materials for those people, or just give them op rights.
Of course the question if there would actually be enough people to start out at least, and whether this will be affordable enough.
Also would be glad if anyone posted any good minecraft construction videos, since I'm currently looking for some inspiration and references for some stuff I wanna build. Or just anything awesome you find like:

I'd be interested in at least giving it a shot.

It rebelanceds some industrialcraft recipes (most of em) to make them more balanced and a bit harder (well at least you don't have endgame content after the first day) Also it ads a few other machine related mods, flattens the bedrock layer and a few other stuff. I personally find it to also work more stable on a server than direwolf20

Well, I'll be taking you two up on your words pretty soon then, but I do hope some more people sign up.
It doesn't matter how much you have played, if you enjoy lots of interaction with other people in games or not - this is basically an FTV server, so hopefully everyone will be nice to everyone else.

Also, It would be nice if you guys would message me the time frames when you are available, since I would like us to start out on the world all at the same time.
Also, we can use Raidcall for chatting, if noone has a better alternative.
I have a group set up there anyway.
So for the start run, we have.
- One of my friends
- Another of my friends
- And another of my friends
- Me
- daft27
- Norren
- wedora
I also messaged Hiasubi, Dchaosblade and doomsayer. Also if anyone still wants to join - tell me

Other than that, for starting at the same time, I don't mind cutting out time for it as a special event. Monday and Wednesday are already scheduled, but I think otherwise I can block out time. US evenings are easiest for me, but if I know a little while in advance I can chop an afternoon out. I might have to cut and run if an emergency comes up, regardless of when it is.
As far as spawns go, I think it'd be cool if we could secure a village reasonably close to starting loc. My general MO is I like to take over a village so villager trades and crops are available. And I may or may not have a good villager breeder design that generates 22~24 villagers, nightly zombie sieges, and iron golems. *whistles innocently*
