End of Stream


As many of you are aware, Minecraft 1.5_02 continues to have some performance anxiety, manifesting itself in sometime not allowing connections. Again, the issue appears weather-related. Speaking of weather, I got an update on the new server. The good news is the new hardware shipped yesterday. The bad news is that apparently due to thunderstorms in Memphis, FedEx doesn't expect it here before the 27th. Such is life.

There have been a few more exciting notes as time advances. One is the Arcopolis boosters are showing a much higher likelihood of reversing incoming or outgoing carts unexpectedly. Also, there was a lightning storm this morning over Hyde's Tower. While nothing was seriously damaged, at least one strike briefly started a fire that the rain immediately extinguished. Even so, these storms present a new fire hazard that we hadn't needed to deal with before. Keep these changes in mind in future construction. The cobblestone roofs most of the buildings have seem adequate defense.
