Another update on the temporary server

The server is up and running on thejermfel's hardware. Everything seems to be working so far and the player cap is at 4. The ip address is the same as before. I will figure out a routine for turning on the server as time goes on. Unfortunately these next few days will be a little bit crazy, however I will try to keep it up as much as possible. Thanks for waiting.

To-Do List

The server now has an official to-do list that is shared between the server admins. It is hosted by wunderlist. If you would like to have access to the to-do list to see what we are up to comment to let us know and we will send you an invitation email.

Server Officially Off (Mostly)

Hey guys,
The server is now officially been shut down. If you happen to be able to log on in the next two weeks, its because we are testing something or Thejermfel has been able to get the server up for a bit. I'm sorry for the inconvenience, but the people that upkeep the server software are having problems so they wont have an update for a while. I assure you, though, as soon as they do, the server will be up and running as normal. Again, at the moment, the server will not be on for two weeks, unless Thejermfel says otherwise and has turned it back on. (He hopes to have it on some parts of the day.)
We hope you all are having a great summer so far,

Update on temporary server

The temporary server that thejermfel has looked into hosting will be a bit shaky and not on very often. Unfortunately due to various constraints the server will only be able to be on during the later afternoon. Although this may be a bit inconvenient it beats having no server at all. We will be using the current map on the temporary server, however starting some giant project is not exactly recommended due to the fact that we will be restarting on a new map soon. Also there is the problem of a pretty slow connection speed on the network. Further testing must be done, however it should hold up to 3,4 people possibly. This means if the server gets full then you will not be able to join. It shouldn't be too much of a problem however with three of the players leaving for the duration of the temporary server. Thanks for your patience and help.

P.S. We have completed version 1.0 of the blog...what do you think? What should we add? What should we take off? Email us with the contact info found at the bottom of the page if you want to give us some input.

Help us find Plugins

As you all know, we will be using Bukkit as the wrapper for our server. Please help us find some plugins by going to Bukkit Plugins List . See if there is anything you like. If you find something, email the link to us at mc.oldoakserver@gmail.com. Thanks!

Server Down

Currently the server will be down for about the next two weeks 5/29-6/12. We will be completely restarting the server with new mods, permissions, and a new map. Another reason the server is down, is because there was an update to Minecraft. This means that our server wrapper (Bukkit) won't work until they make a new update. More details will arrive later once the server admins decide what exactly is going to happen. In the mean time thejermfel will be looking into hosting the old map from time to time until our server is back up and running. The incident about the burned down house and other offenses have been forgotten for now. No one will be banned. Once the new server is up and running with clearly defined rules, violators of these new rules will be punished accordingly. We will also be changing the name of the server to Old Oak Server in honor of our first Minecraft town that was burned and blasted off the map by our fellow gamers :) Check here for more news here in the future. If you have any questions, please contact Nornick3, Thejermfel, or Keenick4.
Our contact info is at the bottem of the page.
Thanks,
