FREE MINECRAFT

As usual, once I get into a game I try to get as many people to play as possible. And since I bought a server, we need a few more to play.

Merk and I have been having fun but with more people we can have bigger fun!

I'm going to get with merk and see what kinda contest I should have. I either going to give away 1 or 2 games, full and paid versions, depending on how many join. All I ask is after I post what the contest is, if you decide to participate, it is important that you actually have time to play the came. You can easily lose a few hours a day in the game, or a few hours everytime you play. If you don;t have the time... then please let the people who do, have a better shot.


More info coming early next week.

Sounds good to me!

ok im interested and have the time, but not committing myself yet

Is there a certain computer requirement to play Minecraft? Just curious since most games won't run on my POS

It isn't at all a heavy graphics game, it's very basic. You can turn down the settings if it's laggy.

yup, basically slowing down settings should help with lags, after hours of playing comp can get laggy anyway, game restart usually do the job

ofc she does!

I'm in, just let me know what the contest is

One of requirements in the contest will be to play the cracked version. The contest will be to either build something or find something or a mixture of the 2...

This works for a few reasons. One, it shows the game so you can "try it". It makes sure the computer will run it, and it helps give you an idea of what to do in the game.

Sweet contest, i want to participate in the challenge but just for something to do! I wont try getting the full from you because I wont be able to connect to the server anyway

well i have the full already so i gues im out but i will still play along for fun

Also to anyone who wants to try the alpha version of the game out the go to www.minecraft.net and click:

"Play Minecraft Classic (Outdated, but free):
Single player | Multi player"

on the right pane

I think that's what I had at 1 time, but it bored me..

it's in browser...

but yes the game is so much improved from then. Also did anyone hear about minecraft winning some creativity prize...

It probably was what I had..

Either way, it still bored me, even with the anti-grav mod/cheat thing someone gave me lol

hmm wonder how you mod an in browser game...

He probably had the downloaded cracked version with zombie mod installed.

No, it was legit and it was some anti-grav thing, where you pressed a button and you could go as high as you wanted w/o being subject to gravity, as well as travel at super-speed. Was really cool.

zombe's minecraft mob pack refers to a group of mods, most notably "fly mod". so yah i guess thats what you got off someone

You can turn on fly in the standard too I believe. It's an option in the server setup.

Not entirely sure it was a mod, tho, was pretty much another program thing on my desktop. Idk, the guy who gave it to me called it a cheat..

I personally don't care, either way the game bored me.

as of the 1.8.1 update, a few weeks back, yes.

Anyone interested in taking part (who do not own the game)?

I would prefer at least 4-5 people minimum..

no =)

Sure, I'll give it a shot, it'll give me an excuse to not play Quake so much..
