Have you tried Mafia MA?

No.  I don't support organized crime.

If people really care what I would like to see even though I'm not active any more...

I would like to see more frequent "Fresh Start" events, and then one (single) "archive" world where we use Bukkit to copy/paste builds for posterity.

That texture pack is nice, but I think it would cause more confusion than any pack I use - especially if we do a CTM map;  how are we supposed to know which wool we've got?  I know, mouse-over and a name pops up, but still.  I think it would be disorienting, unless a particular map were built with that pack in mind.  Cool pack though.

I was just thinking about using it for my war idea. It would be too much of a pain for any other maps.

Drawn back in by Z's email...I've been away from MC for a while simply because I haven't had (or made) the time.  But I'd like to log in soon and check out what y'all have been up to for the past several months.

A consistent homeworld would be nice--something that remains familiar over a period of many months or longer.  It would have a nice transportation system out to areas that are spawned with different versions of the game.  The multiverse is still cool, especially for challenge maps.

Some kind of weekly get-together or challenge, if well timed, might actually work out for me.  But I don't expect to be much more active than that.

Cool!  I've put up a thread for the challenge LP here if you don't mind being filmed:

I've also put up the first of the tour videos;  I've settled on making one for each map.  There is a little black border around the video;  I've done everything I can, but ultimately my problem is that my monitor has a display aspect of 16/10 - if I record minecraft in full size it is never going to fit right in the youtube window, which has an aspect of 16/9.  I suppose I can try adjusting the size of the minecraft window, but I feel like I'd just be guessing.  If anyone has a solution to this let me know (aside from buying a new monitor).  Anyway, this is the video:

Too bad you didn't go into my longhouse, it's pretty nifty inside, and there's even a dark secret underneath it

Just to give you guys a heads up- I have not abandoned my project in the settlement. I will be gone for the next week for work and it may be a few more weeks before I can get back on for any length of time.

Thanks!

I just saw this video. It would be awesome if Mojang added proper mountains into world generation algorithm or whatever, especially with the new heights. They would look epic.

Thanks for the movies! Nice to have a record of what was made.

That mountain looks cool, as does the castle.  It reminds me of some mountains I saw in a vid of Vechs' Lethamyr map.  It would be nice if minecraft generated that kind of terrain natively.  Maybe someday!

My pleasure! I've done a tour of all of the maps now. It's been fun making them, stretching my brain a bit and learning a new skill.   

I'm making an LP of Nightmare Realm.  I'm going to post it in the minecraft forums and try to get some views - maybe it will lead some fellow minecrafters to take an interest in skepticism and the SGU.

It was also cool seeing far distance as well to get a sense of the size. Due to lag, if I'm not just being logged out, I never get to see those views with so much visible. (The reason I'm not on much is that from where I live the lag is so bad most times it's unplayable at night. Downside of being in Oz.)

Wait, there's an upside? 

On an unrelated note, I just wanted to say that this is why I love Zisteu:
