Yeah. I should get to it eventually. Maybe I'll do it now.

And done

Ahahaha oh goodness, but one of you retards are seriously asking for it.

If anyone's been watching the devlog, waterfalls are possible in /indev/.

Testing server is now permanently MinerCPP. I'm in the middle of porting the whitelist over, and I'm the only one that can OP right now, but the ops on now can get you whitelisted (not auto-kick, build restrictions).

I CAN'T FEEL MY PIXELS!

5th Granite 1050
Investigating legends of a submerged Dwarven stronghold under the Boiling Sea, I've recently stumbled upon a map charting the route to a place named "Rashtun", suspiciously close to the Boiling sea (in fact, the map puts it right on top of it). With my trusty mule Zasit, I decided to follow the map and see where it led me.

7th Granite 1050
There are a lot fewer wild animals around the Boiling Sea region than I expected. Plenty of eagles though. Skeletal eagles.

10th Granite 1050
I've come to the edge of the boiling sea. The map urges me on, but there is no discernible path through it...
--
There are few words to describe what I have found. I am dead tired from the swim down, and my mule has a good portion of my writing supplies with it, so I will be brief. Along the shore was the hint of a cobblestone path, and upon following it into the sea I found it extended all the way to the bottom of the sea, mostly covered in sand and silt.
(here a picture is drawn on the next page)
What I found at the bottom defies words, so a hastily drawn picture will have to do.

Going up to get more supplies in the morning. Sleep now.

11th Granite 1050
The name "Rashtun" was etched on the wall near the entrance. I have found it!
I have no idea how they keep the water out of their tunnels though. Swimming into the tunnel, I expected a sunken ruin, but as soon as I crossed the threshold I found myself floundering on dry (though mossy) smoothed rock.(here a picture is drawn on the next page)
---
The tunnel was a decent length for typical Dwarven constructions, though the staircase that terminated the tunnel was not.
(here a picture is drawn on the next page)
I can say with certainty that I have never seen nor heard of such a grand construction of stairs in all of my years as an adventurer. I wanted to count them, but I feared losing track and having to start over. Stairs are not my thing.
---
The stairs paled in comparison to the hall.
(here a picture is drawn on the next page)
I hear the roar of a waterfall in the distance, perhaps an underground river? That would explain the large amount of mist that obscures the roof of this great endeavor.
---
I still have not found any of the inhabitants. I fear that perhaps I have come too late to meet any of them.
---
I have found a great artifact.
(here a picture is drawn on the next page)
A plaque near its base contained only a name, "Vunomonor Rotik An". Perhaps this is an offering to a god of the same name? The eyes are rubies of such size I have never seen before. The body of the great beast is entirely made of obsidian, finely polished so that I can see my own unkempt face in it. My fingers slide right off when I try to rest my hand on the flank. The tusks appear to be made of steel, but is of such a luster I cannot help but wonder if it is in fact silver.

12th Granite 1050
Have not slept since I got here. Too much to see, so little time. I will sleep now, I'm about to collapse, but one last entry. I have found the waterfall. It falls from a height I cannot see down to a pool behind the elephant.
(here a picture is drawn on the next page)

13th Granite 1050
I managed to climb on top of the elephant statue with the aid of some rope. It was very slippery, but I managed to draw a good portrait of a portion of roof and the source of the waterfall.
(here a picture is drawn on the next page)
--
I heard a bit of rumbling today, I could not tell where it came from. Not a single bit of dust fell from the roof. These Dwarves knew their masonry. I also heard some scrabblings, as if from a cave spider, but I may have imagined them.

14th Granite 1050
The flow on the waterfall has slackened. I think it is fed through the mountains, perhaps some volcanic eruption has temporarily blocked off an aquifer. In any case, the mist lifted enough for me to see the full grandeur of the entryway.
(here a picture is drawn on the next page)
--
I can hear more scrabblings. I came upon some remains today, near a large grand tomb. They were not buried properly at all, in fact the body looked like it had died on top of the sarcophagus rather than elsewhere, and it still had armor and a warhammer. I think I may want to leave.
--
To anyone who reads this journal, take heed. The ancient stronghold Rashtun is abandoned for a reason. I saw their gleaming eyes today, oh how I hate the eyes. Giant cave spiders. Thousands of them. I have only myself to blame, looking around now I see how obvious their tracks were. Small pits in the smooth floor, easily overlooked in my wonder.
Now I am holed up under the elephant statue, the spiders are too big to fit under, but I fear that I won't last long when they call their brood to drive me out.
--
Rashtun is not abandoned! I saw him, a single dwarf, commanding the spiders! I will attempt to reason with him and perhaps he will agree to let me leave.

What the ♥♥♥♥ is wrong with you?

Bit of RP never hurt anyone.

double post merge -Duh

I think if I say "/quote", that will be enough.

Remember. It has to say "#1 Dad" on it.
Also, life is worth living again.

Why am I banned? I haven't been on your thingie in like, months. Is that the whitelist? If so, add ProjektTHOR.

If not, unban me.

Interesting news. For everybody who can use /draw, I've now found out that it will draw a maximum of your userlevel number of blocks. Except for 255, who can draw as many as they like.
This came up last night with a friend of mine who could only draw up to 202 blocks (stumped the crap out of us until this morning when my bug report was answered and closed).

Yeah, I've noticed that and how freaking annoying it is. I kept meaning to bring it up.

I accidentally overwrote the modified sourcecode that included /quote when I compiled a later svn (to see if it solved the problem), so I'll have to go and edit it again anyway. While I'm there I might just make it a hard can use/can't use limit instead of a size limit. Seems kinda silly IMO. Or at least add a warning (and confirmation and all) about it.

Duh, server's down again. Both the normal and testing ones. Instability issues?

Strange, they look fine enough. I'll check it out. I couldn't connect either earlier today, but I thought that was just me.

EDIT: There we go. Router was being stupid. God I hate Belkin...
