Working hard

Hey all!

We have had some server problems with Minecraft. I have built a very simple house where I can sleep and a warehouse where I can keep my stuffs. Its been very very fun learning how to craft different things in Minecraft. Like I told you at my first post I have never before played Minecraft. I have died few times after I came from underground where I was mining and lost lot of iron and coal. But today I found my first diamonds! It may sound stupid but im proud I have found diamonds! Now i can do something fun with my diamonds.

In civilisation I havent been so active because we have some problems with there too. But I have learned something in CIV too. On my opinion Minecraft is much more better game than CIV. Its been fun in this course playing with friends and alone.

Here is my small house and warehouse in the background.

server problems

this week i had alot problems connecting to the server at school and  so i really didn't do much on minecraft. I have played little civ4 and thinked about stradegys for the e-mail game if it would start soon.

Connection problems?

Hey everyone!

I think we have some kind of problems with the minecraft server system? It´s not working at school at all, it wont connect to the server, so I´ve been playing in different server and I finished with a nice but simple house. I think I´ve learned the basics quite fast and I´m getting better everytime I play. With Civilization our group have quite big issues, I think the turn is still stuck on Teemu, and I haven´t even played the first round so I´m getting annoyed with the whole thing with Civ. It seems to be a nice game tho. Maybe we should have another meeting soon with the group so we could get things moving on? However, things are going great with minecraft without counting the connection problems on school server. So teachers, please make up a meeting soon, so we can get things organized!

Week 3

First I have to complain about the Minecraft server system. It's is not working (yet?) at home, and I don't have time to play it at school. However i have builded two scale models; Burj Khalifa, the highest building in the world, located i Dubai, And the replica of the World Trade Center Twin Towers. Both are quite small buildings, but since the server doesn't work outside the school, I haven't had much time to play.
Our Civilization game is stuck on Valtteri, and I haven't even played the first round... Im getting real frustrated right now. But here is the screenshots:

No progress

Things haven't advanced with the games, since Minecraft's server doesn't work at home and Civilization's save hasn't been sent forward, thanks to Valtteri.
I've been playing on another server since the school's server is inaccessible at home.
Civilization has turned out to be a bit of a fail, because the emailing system.

More minecraft

Last week  I haven't got a clue what I was going to build. I was thinking of building a ship that would have been on water but instead I started to help Leevi in his project and in the end I was helping him to make it complete. You can see the picture of the building we made from Leevi's own Minecraft post from last week. We made a building which had water walls and we thought that it was a bit boring so we cowered the whole thing whit glass and putted some lava inside it. So basically it is a huge house whit water falls and inside it, there is a lot of lava. We made a little farm outside the house where there are some cows and next to them is a diamond covered swimming poll. So that's it from this week and next week we will build something new!

Dear classmates, teachers and bloggers

Hi all!

So I finally got into this blog and saw your amazing posts and buildings you´ve built in Minecraft. I´m just a rookie player in Minecraft and I really dont have a clue how to play it but I´m learning fast! Couple times I´ve tried to play the game in our multiplayer server but it comes up with a big error. I got in yesterday and started with some basics (walking around, digging, etc). It seems to be a little bit different game than the games I´ve played before but I like it alot! Next post of mine will be nice, you´ll be amazed for sure!

Feel free to comment and give me some tips for the later challenges I will face on Minecraft! About Civilization, I´m trying to learn the basics and build some kind of village but it is a kind of hard game if you haven´t played it before!

Best regards,

Aleksi
