I think it needs at least 1GB to minimally run, anything below isn't a really good idea... At least 2GB shouldn't be a problem, I think. Also it's a good idea to have a swap partition (pagefile.sys under Windows) in case Minecraft takes up your entire RAM and locks up your computer.

Most of the time, when you die, all your stuff are dropped around so if you return to the place where you died you're usually able to retrieve all your stuff. Getting there is sometimes long, so warps or getting transported by the admin helps. A map can help too, here's mine: Map of my world (note: the player markers doesn't actually work...)

Also, good idea to gather everyone on the same server at the same time. Mine can handle easily 5-6 people, haven't tested for more...

Also, screenshot. :P Took easily 1 hour to build this in obsidian, that thing takes 15 seconds to remove if I make a mistake.

(Oh lol, ninja'd...)

Not all the time. I remember dying and my stuff was all gone. Also that Omni logo is epic ;D

One thing I wonder is how you guys build huge floating platforms? Because to me it seems like you have to make towers of like 30-40 blocks one by one then build on top of them, the remove the stuff below, but I can't seem to understand how you do it in large scale. Also how do you get torches, woodplates, money and that stuff?

That's why I said "usually"... And yeah that logo is epic indeed, thanks :P

Well you make a tower, build the floor by placing blocks besides (and not on top) the already existing blocks. For the torches, woodplates and the such, you have to craft them. For money, it's a /money command you have to type in the chat.

Well yeah, but it's kinda touchy when you are making a floating platform.

I hope you can buy a copy soon. I am not online that often but I sometimes randomly pop in when bored.

ATM I'm still kinda learning and also messing around so all I did was build some sort of high wall near the Omni logo that you can climb through a stair.

Clever use of giant buildings to make me lose The Game.

Also you can press F1+F2 to take screenshots (F1 removes the HUD) and F11 to go in fullscreen.

Lol thanks, that took a while to create. LOTS of blocks, too. Also the entire area where is located that building and a lot of the stuff besides used to be the sea. I just filled those parts with blocks to drain the water out, then dug holes in there.

cool!

I play minecraft too but were is Juju's server? or do I need the paid version of the game to get in there? As for the free version I once build a sort of shrine. Here it is.

edit: I did not make this alone, at first I builded what you see in pic3 (or MC_Hgue2) on top of the remains of a pretty huge building. It was badly grieved so I did not repair it. Not at first. Then this British dude came to help me and we repaired the fundaments of the building + he added alot of interior elements, extended the roof etc. So I did the top part and we repaired the light-brown colored building together. He added all the peripherals you can find the free server here: http://www.minecraft.net/play.jsp?server=6cca0c93f290659f05168f6250b394f7. from there go to guest1. My building is in the far corner of the map.
