So I moved my minecraft folder from App Support to Dropbox and used the make symlink command to make sure MC's launcher sees it and all is well.
Code:
ln -s ~/Dropbox/minecraft ~/Library/Application\ Support/minecraft This is good for me since I'll play on different computers and now only have to update the templates once and my saved games are everywhere for when I play locally etc.Louis L'Amour, βTo make democracy work, we must be a nation of participants, not simply observers.

Don't tell me I'm getting into Minecraft just as it's getting dumb.

There are furnaces now? I think you are underestimating my Mindcraft n00bness.
But I'm figuring it out. That's half the fun. |

It's okay. I can rough it. I'm a frontiersman, I am.
(I just figured out how to cycle through items on the hotbar. The mouse wheel. I'm S-M-R-T smart!) and i guess i've known it all along / the truth is, you have to be soft to be strong |

Great success! Tonight we had ten (10!) players on at once and only then did the server start to groan under the strain. It looks like some of the custom JVM arguments have indeed helped a fair bit. I will try installing Java 7 tomorrow to see if that eeks out even more performance on this machine.
Also, welcome Robo! You joined at an all-time peak load on the server. So, not only were you fighting the high latency of your WiMax connection but also the occasional lag spikes caused by the server itself being under high load. Thanks for sticking through it. Hopefully the next time you connect will be a little less painful. ... In local news, lots of projects are springing up around Bridgeport again. Kraetos tore down his pub and housing complex and is building a much larger, more luxurious pub. Bryson claimed the sandy area on the east side of Bridgeport to start building his new theater. iJak/TPoit tore down his farm shack and is rebuilding a stylish brick barn with a revised farmland behind it. I just finished my new house in he woods behind the Apple Store and I'm considering another project in town, but I need to sketch it out on paper first. I guess I'm overdue for some world maps, too! I'll pull the backup tomorrow and generate some images to share here then. Exciting times. The quality of this board depends on the quality of the posts.

OK, Minecraft is officially awesome and all of you who don't play it are punks for not playing it. That is all.

I has a new desktop wallpaper.
OK, I'm going to watch a few more tutorials today. I thought monsters were supposed to go away during the day. |

The skellies and zombies burn up and die in sunlight The sun has to be up about 20 degrees over the horizon, I think, for them to catch fire. If they're in water or under dark enough shade, they'll survive. Spiders (sometimes, if they're not in attack mode already) become tame during daylight but stick around. When tame, you can literally walk right up to them and they'll ignore you. Creepers stick around too, but creepers gonna creep. Fortunately, if you wander away for a bit, hostiles will despawn on their own without you having to kill them.
Also, no new baddies spawn in daylight. So, the numbers should constantly dwindle with the sun up. The quality of this board depends on the quality of the posts.

Ok... so, I'm sketching out my next project, and I'm going to need a LOT of land for it. Since nobody generally seems to like building in deserts, I thought I'd take over the small desert southeast of Bridgeport.
I plan to collect lots of the sand that's out there, but I won't be using it all myself. So, I'll stash what I find in chests and eventually may migrate it (with some help?) to the community exchange. Any major objections? The quality of this board depends on the quality of the posts.
