So how will this work tonight? I'm a relative newb to minecraft. Do we just have a sensible level of free reign for building the village? e.g. I could make a pretty house, a well, a treehouse, that sort of thing?
i.e. no giant penises?
The THN hub village will just be fairly simple "something to look pretty on entering the world". its currently just a diskworld style so people dont go around too far on it, but itll be locked at some point in the future. Basically acting as a welcome area. You can make a village well if you like, have streets etc with houses and suchlike. Dunno if we have any pictures of skycity from the previous world.
Once thats built and we setup the portals to jump between worlds, then you can go into the adventure world then itll just be normal adventure styley play (monsters, proper digging of stuff, etc.), or if youre boring, you can just jump into creative mode
I'm sitting at the moment trying to get up various plugins on the server and updating those. Hopefully, provided prom doesnst overheat again, things should be okay for this evening. I imagine ill jump into the teamspeak channel at some point too.

So is the village being built in "boring" creative mode?
yup
the hub world is artificially generated to start with so we'll have creative mode enabled for that and then once people are happy with that, we can all go into adventure mode and kill things and try and survive the night

just wondering if it's worth waiting for 1.9 to be released so we can get mushroom bioms and nether dungeons and the NPC villagers will be put in, also are we going to have the generated structures in our world?

Probably not in my opinion. The release schedule is getting faster as they head towards release. If we keep waiting for the next version and then the time for the plugin devs to catch up we're not going to get going again until after minecon. We can always add in a new 1.9 world if we wanted.

I agree with bacon on this. We can look at regenning the adventure world at each release is we warrant it. The Hub world doesn't use the minecraft terragen anyway and we can mobspawn villagers back in to our own village once the 1.9 releases. Archive will be use the old gen and spawner anyway, and creative shouldn't give a ____ about versions

Quick note about working in Creative mode:
When using interactive elements (buttons, levers, doors etc.) the "use" command is right-click as in creative mode left-click instantly removes the item.
This will take a little bit of getting used to so I thought I'd let you know before we started.

Ok... So I thought I'd bring you all up to speed on where we are!
The server is as ready as it's ever going to be and the terraformers have almost finished on the new hub world. The server will be kept locked until we're completely ready but currently this looks good to be on track for a 6:30pm start as promised.
If you're home already feel free to come join us on the THN teamspeak servers whilst we finalise arrangements and then we'll get going as soon as possible.
Final note: Things might be a bit shaky initially whilst we get everyones permissions setup and ready to go!

Guys this was a fantastic event. It was great to see soo many of you online. I think our maximum was 15 people on line which given our usual numbers was great.
Adventure mode is up and our happy band are our their way!
Creative mode is up and portalled, but with very little else
Archive and skylands to come soon!
We got far more than I had hoped and I REALLY hope that everyone involved had a goodtime and will come back on the less publicised every other day of the year!
Pics to come soon for others
