Login at HomeTown

Hello Everyone,

I want to present a project I’ve been working on with some of my friends for the past two days. Its name is “The Underground Super Highway” and it is an ice boat highway bridging together the various towns and shops on the server without the use of warps.

For those who do not know what the ice boat highway is, it is a glitch involving placing a boat on top of ice and riding on it allowing you to reach incredible speeds and travel huge distances in a short amount of time. Since Mojang advertises this as a feature, this bug will most likely never be patched and we will be able to continue to use the highway.

“The Underground Super Highway” (Or “TUSH” for short) is simply a straight 3x3 tunnel with a strip of alternating ice and a slab down the centre with boat dispensers at either end. The highway will allow you to travel from one side of the world to the other (30000 blocks) in about 13 minutes.

The Highway will be absolutely free to use for everyone, but this doesn’t mean you can grief it or steal the packed ice.

Included in the link is a rough map of the HomeTown world

The red lines represent the planned tunnels for the highway so far, while the yellow lines represent tunnels which have already been dug out and ice placed. The Yellow dot near the centre is spawn and its immediate surroundings and the blue dot towards the right side is Ironfall, the first city connected to the TUSH and my home town (Heh, see what I did there?). Each pixel represents 20x20 blocks.

(This map will be updated every 3 days with showing our progress on it and detailing the positions of the cities involved)

If you would like your town, shop or landmark connected to the TUSH you can PM me on the forum or send me (SupGamingHamster) or Jackyback a message in-game and we can work something out.

But alas, we cannot do this by ourselves and so we turn to you; Most work done on the TUSH will be voluntary as we simply cannot afford to pay people large amounts of money for the digging, but if you do decide to help the cause, we will try to help you as much as possible by providing you with any resources you may need (such as packed ice or pickaxes) and any mined resources are yours to keep.

If you have any suggestions or questions about this idea, please let me know in the comments underneath.

Thank you for your time,
-SupGamingHamster

TUSH Update #1:

Two Highways are being dug out right now, one in the nether for quicker transportation and one in the overworld for recourse extraction and for its simple entertainment more than its functionality. The Nether Super Highway (TNUSH for short) is being dug at nether bedrock ceiling height and the TUSH is being dug at at y=12 to maximize the chances of diamonds.

The layout of the nether highway is identical to the overworld one (They run in parallel) with the nether one being scaled down properly

The following map shows the progress made on the nether highway:

Server you were banned on (SMP/Discord): SMP

Minecraft name: alyssaisaperson

Reason for your ban: Crop Theft

Who banned you: shisuan

Why should you be unbanned: I do not remember doing anything related to crop theft, but if I did then I apologize completely. I'll try to be more careful to and pay attention when such an event occurs.

Why do you want to come back: I've been working on a project, specifically the Vault located at "/warp AllieVault." I really am proud of it and I want to make sure it's finished. I really enjoy working on the server, it's my favorite SMP server I've ever been a part of. 

I was banned apparently for griefing, but I haven't griefed at all.

Greetings & Salutations from the old map.  I have been chipping away at some rock at my old build and I have managed to almost completely exhaust my stockpiled supply of prismarine.  My guardian destroyer machine and personal monument to me (pictured) still spawns a couple guardians at a time but at this rate I will get nothing accomplished.  

I was hoping to be able to successfully request guardian spawns get turned up?  Would this have an adverse fallout on the new current map?

Thanks

Server you were banned on (SMP/Discord): SMP

Minecraft name: Rug__Rat

Reason for your ban: I was being ignorant and did not replant what I had taken.

Who banned you: Rayvenz

Why should you be unbanned: I was being a lazy ignorant child and took and did not give back and I want to be able to fix my mistakes and enjoy this server ,but I understand if you do not see me fit to come back .

Why do you want to come back: I honestly do like this server and the people on it are so helpful and nice,i'm new and I ask some questions that are basically the basic 's , but that does not stop them from trying to help,and it is a over all good server I struggle find ones like this ,And I don't wanna lose it cause of my ignorance .

Hey guys, Shizuan here,
I think that adding a Skyblock world to the server would be very cool! Frost could perhaps add just an all air world and worldedit in the islands, or mods could even build them by hand. People could pay IG currency to be added to the skyblock world and given an island, and that would add a new and unique aspect to the server! (perhaps there could just be an airworld in general for building and people can bring blocks over). I am fairly certain maps like that already exist to download so they could be added to the server that way for extra ease. If you think that this idea is a good one please reply!

Server you were banned on (SMP/Discord): SMP

Minecraft name: The_Muffin_Man_

Reason for your ban: I did not replant 100% of the wheat I harvested at /warp HTfarm. 

Who banned you: Rayvenz

Why should you be unbanned: I am sorry for taking advantage of someone's free produce, and then being too lazy to finish replanting the crops for others to harvest. If it has not been done so already, I will replant all of the crops using the chest of seeds, which I left at the site. I will certainly replant on public farms in the future. I agree that this ban was completely justified, for if everyone harvested from public farms and didn't replant %100 of what they took, the farm would be barren within days, or even hours. This would be a great loss for the community, as a free public farm allows players to gain necessary food and items to sell without requiring them to have a large sum of money. I for one was thrilled to discover public farms existed, and am ashamed that I of all people would contribute to the threat against them.

Why do you want to come back: I really enjoyed the idea of having a public survival server, bound together by an economy and given free reign to build, explore, and play games with new friends. While due to technical issues I have not yet voted, I thoroughly enjoy the server and cannot wait to return (if permitted) and contribute. I also must admit to owning many items, some property, and a balance of over $2000 (which is a lot for me) and I would hate to see it all be lost solely due to one act of laziness. Additionally, I love to build on minecraft, and was about to start a small business and warp using the funds I received by selling the wheat I had been harvesting. Again, I am regretful for taking harmful shortcuts in order to achieve my own future goals. 

I used to practically live on forums when I was younger, and now I'm back again in a community that I feel welcomed in!
