  1. Making some decent progress again now. To save us having to use the waterfall to get into the ravine/mining area I made one of the holes in the ground outside the community house a lot safer by putting some fences around it and then I built a ladder to go from the bottom of the ravine all the way back up to the surface. Mind you, I'd probably still use the waterfall to go down as the ladder looks a bit risky to me, but the ladder is a much quicker way of getting back to the surface.
  2. I uploaded a video which I recorded of the old map. I can't really link to it thought because I still somehow managed to swear my face off while I was talking :p I'd personally rather just keep going as we are. We've already had to start again which was a bit frustrating to be honest considering what we had done on the last map and I spent half of this morning making a new community house, but that's just my 2 cents.
  3. I've got another community house built up. It's only small at the moment, but feel free to expand it if you wish. One thing I'd like to say is that if you do cut down a tree, try to plant at least one in it's place so we don't have to walk miles to find a tree like we had to before the map got reset. Other than that, as you were :p
  4. I've managed to get online for half an hour this evening and I decided to continue exploring the cave. I honestly don't think it ends, because it just seems to keep going and going. I had to build a make-shift bridge across a cavern at one point and the cave kept going after that as well, so there's plenty of resources to be found not far from where you spawn which is nice. Only problem is, it is littered with mobs and stuff so I wouldn't bother taking much other than some basic tools and torches for now. Gave up with exploring the cave, so I made a flower bed ( :p ) and made the wall surrounding the tool shed/mine entrance a bit higher so stuff can't just jump over and start attacking. I extended the fencing around the side as well and put a double-gate in, but I don't know if mobs can just open them like we can or not. A skeleton seemed completely unable to navigate over/around the fence that was there before so I was hoping a gate would have a similar effect. I won't be back home until late evening for the rest of the week so I won't be able to join the server like I did today, so I'm hoping some stuff might have changed by the weekend :p
  5. I don't have Skype, but I can't see why I couldn't get it. Me and Khevolution have already found a massive cave with some water and lava in it, would be good if some other people could help him out as I can only really join at weekends.
  6. Double post, but I'll risk it. Do we still have a TeamSpeak/Ventrilo server that we could use for this rather than typing all the time? I keep finding myself being attacked by stuff while I'm typing, but that could just be me being an idiot and not finding anywhere safe to type :p Regardless of that, I think it would be better if we had some sort of voice communications going.
  7. I did indeed. I may have built a tool shed not too far from it :p
  8. I can confirm Tekkit Lite works for me. Just downloaded it, let it do its installing stuff and joined the server straight away.
  9. GTAMADDOG That should be it anyway, it's what I signed up with :p
  10. I'd probably go with Tekkit, although I personally wouldn't use the Tekkit side of things to its full advantage. I just like to build big houses/towers and explore large caves and stuff which I can do in standard Minecraft. One of my friends from school/college uploads regular YouTube videos of stuff he does on his server. I'll have to look through the videos and see what else it adds. I'd be up for it regardless, though.
  11. It makes commuting a bit more fun I suppose. I now find great satisfaction in spotting holes in the road and then missing them. It's even better when it looks like you can't miss them because there are so many, but you judge the width of your car perfectly so you can get all four wheels to pass between all of the holes by the skin of your teeth :p I'm pretty sure anyone behind me must think I consistently drive while drunk as I weave around in the road missing holes.
  12. I found some more pot-holes a couple of weeks ago. The twisty road used to be so smooth :(
  13. The cover photo looks like it belongs on the cover of an album from some of the bands I listen to.
  14. Too cold to clean the car properly this week, I think I'll risk braving the cold with the pressure washer (if the hose-pipe isn't frozen) and see how much dirt I can remove just with that. Not really a bad day, car isn't too dirty, but I like my Sunday routine.
  15. Fortunately enough for him he drives the A6 :p The Chevy belongs to a lady who used to be the head of accounting, but she retired last year. A lot of people retired/left last year.
  16. Google updated StreetView for around where I work, and look what now appears on StreetView: http://i181.photobucket.com/albums/x104/GTAMADDOG/306google_zpseb7b09a4.jpg Parked next to the boss. Reverse in, and when it's time to go home I'm already facing the car park exit for a quick getaway :p
  17. The 'ordinary'/sleeper stuff: Subaru Impreza WRX STI Land Rover Defender 300TDI (Modified to the point where it can keep up with/outrun modern traffic for the luls) Peugeot 306 GTI-6 (Supercharged) VW Golf GTI 16v (MK2, mint condition) VW Golf GTI (MK2, 1.8T conversion) VW Golf VR6 (Supercharged) VW Golf R32 (Twin-turbos, maybe) BMW 335D (E90, re-mapped) BMW 335i (E92, re-mapped) Skoda Fabia vRS (MK1, modified to as close to 300BHP as possible) Thinking a bit more expensive, show-off stuff.. Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 Ford Mustang Fastback Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 Nissan GTR Audi R8 V10 Aston Martin V8 Vantage Maserati Quatrroporte GTS There's some other stuff, but this little list took longer than I thought and I've got to go out now so I'll edit it later. Think we had a thread similar to this before and I chose mostly ordinary stuff because super-cars/hyper-cars don't really interest me as much as they should.
  18. Could listen to this all day: Dubstep isn't my usual cup-o-tea, but I really like this.
  19. It might be alright in the snow as it's xDrive, it'll be quick enough, practical enough and can also be a lazy cruiser. Problem is the one I spec'd costs £44,205, yet I purposely left out some options: http://i181.photobucket.com/albums/x104/GTAMADDOG/330x1_zps3ef58e2f.jpg http://i181.photobucket.com/albums/x104/GTAMADDOG/330x2_zps3e789c19.jpg http://i181.photobucket.com/albums/x104/GTAMADDOG/330x3_zps45a10f6c.jpg BMW 330d xDrive M Sport. I want one exactly like this once they cost about a quarter of the list price. Oh, balls. I've made another post with a BMW in it :fp:
  20. My dad keeps emailing me links to BMWs for sale. The latest one is an LPG Converted 325i Sport in Imola Red with beige leather. I asked him if he was looking at getting it and he said "No, it's one for you to look at". Yeah... thanks dad, you're essentially trying to get me to spend money when you usually say don't bother. It doesn't help my problem with continuously scanning the classifieds for new cars, especially as I end up on YouTube watching/listening to videos of straight-six petrol BMWs and then convince myself I must have one. Truth be told I'd have one in a heartbeat if they did 10-15MPG more than they actually do :( Think I'll stick with a 330D as they still make a nice sound in my opinion. First world problems, etc.
  21. I didn't buy them, but I acquired these last week. Bang & Olufsen - Form 2 by GTAMADDOG, on Flickr Bang & Olufsen - Form 2 by GTAMADDOG, on Flickr I think I must have four different B&O earphones now :p
  22. Well usually when we're out I'm driving so that would be irresponsible :p
  23. Must. Resist. Buying. Already spent too much today on Mother's Day/Car Parts :p
