I am happy to report a whole barrage of good news!!
For starters, Mion has agreed to expedite a new update that will help us with our Forge issue. It will not be this weekend as she previously estimated, but she assured me it can be done in the very near future. Should the opportunity rise, please convey your thanks to her before or after she releases the update to show our support and gratitude! :)
Secondly, we do have in our possession a failsafe measure contributed to me by one of our most talented players that will effectively nullify Forge's discrepancy checks. This will ensure that, one way or another, we can reschedule the Forge switchover for this coming Friday. A week's delay is still better than what most game industry companies get away with these days. ;)
And lastly, although I wanted to officially unveil this on Friday along with the switchover, the catastrophe kind of took it out of the spotlight, since it was used to test the Gulliver Forged server (and where I originally discovered the issue). But with everything in the process of being resolved, let me finally put it back into production, and so I'm proud to say that the LITTLE BROTHER SERVER IS NOW LIVE!!!!!
Currently it is running Vanilla Minecraft Snapshot 14w02c, so if you want to play on here please create a new profile that allows for development snapshots. The IP for Little Brother is:
littlebrother.mcserver.ws
This was done spur-of the-moment, so currently there are no official rules in place, and all the player rules in Big Sister have carried over into Little Brother (including moderators and such). This may not be the case next month, but for now Little Brother will offer a pure survival experience alternative for up to 10 people, where they can play with all the latest snapshot advances including colored glass and slime blocks. It is a snapshot server, though, so don't build anything overly epic as there's no guarantee it will survive subsequent updates. ;)
Enjoy the new playground!
