Ok, so I'm up for taking orders for anything that can be found underground. Sensible things like iron ore, redstone and coal are plentiful, and I can provide them to those that dont like the hassle of searching, but dont want to cheat to get stuff. Rarer things like diamonds and lapis lazuli CAN be catered for, but it WILL take time. That, and I'll be keeping a small percentage of diamonds for making picks to mine obsidian with.

Also, at some point fairly soon, I'll be experimenting with a large open-cast mine in the search for said goodies. I'll find somewhere out the way for it, and would be greatful if someone could provide a rail link there and back for the distribution of materials.

There will be a fair few chests on-site containing excess finds, these will be free for all. Also in there will be buckets of lava for anyone to use (just don't burn the mine down, Qbrrbrl!)

If you come across any pot noodle... it's mine!

I'd just like to point out that fire 'conveniently' started just after I logged off, when only aki was online. Highly suspicious if you ask me...

I can send you some coal if you want

He wasn't the only one online at the time of the great Fire

He was the only one there when the thing actually ignited though, stop trying to discredit my conspiracy theories

LOL

i'm sorry but i was with aki the whole time , and he was too busy shining my shiney bits to be lighting fires

The 'Big 'Ole Hole in the Ground' is progressing nicely, and ehile I have yet to turn up anything major (apart from iron and coal) its been an interesting project thus far. After the entire mine is down to bedrock level, I'm considering expanding sideways underground at the diamond levels. This should provide a supply of lava, diamond and redstone should people need it. Plus, its really rather groovy finding amazing cavern networks that go on for miles. If anyone wants to help, then please ask first before leaping in with shovels and picks, as I'm still trying to keep it all relativly neat for now!
