    [CHALLENGE] (v4.3-ish 6/7/18) Refugee to Regent Kingdom Building Challenge

    Oh, I think I just earned, like, my 5th hypothetical badge for procrastinating. For me, "pretty" depends on what I'm building. If I'm trying to build a bridge, I'll attempt to make it look decent, but there are no promises. Houses and other true buildings, on the other hand, yes. Those will...

    [CHALLENGE] (v4.3-ish 6/7/18) Refugee to Regent Kingdom Building Challenge

    I do understand that college doesn't get every degree far. No college can ever promise you'll get a job, but it opens up more doors for you depending on your degree. For me, I'm going into Graphic Design, which is something that DEFINITELY requires a degree if you actually want to go out there...

    [CHALLENGE] (v4.3-ish 6/7/18) Refugee to Regent Kingdom Building Challenge

    Okay, guys! Third episode recorded! It may be another long one, I'm not sure. I got a bit too wordy at the beginning and too caught up in showing how to build with Schematica, so bear with it even if it is a bit longer than 30 minutes! Accept it as my apology for it being so long since the last one!

    It's not that I wouldn't mind having a job, it's just the US government makes it painful for people living with beneficiaries. If I get a job, they cut my mom's benefits and then I have to provide for everyone or else we go homeless (again). That's not something I want. For now, college is a bit...

    I like Schematica in terms of it's idea and execution. However, I do wish working with the schematics wasn't so.. blinding. You can't see where your hitbox is aimed for placing the next block and when you're standing in the middle of a schematic block trying to get things done it just gets...

    [CHALLENGE] (v4.3-ish 6/7/18) Refugee to Regent Kingdom Building Challenge

    Guys, I need help. I finally got into the school I've been wanting to get into only to realize that they're a need-gap school. That means that they have financial aid cover books and tuition and then whatever is leftover covers housing. This is a problem because I can contribute a total of $0...

    Well thanks to FTB not letting me know there were new posts, I missed out on a nice convo. Oh well....

    [CHALLENGE] (v4.3-ish 6/7/18) Refugee to Regent Kingdom Building Challenge

    After writing many stages for my challenge I realized this was true to some degree and that forcing people to gather resources before they could move on was boring and just wasted time. I don't want to waste people's time. I also want them to have fun. Because of that, I removed the item...

    [CHALLENGE] (v4.3-ish 6/7/18) Refugee to Regent Kingdom Building Challenge

    I'm mostly trying to make sure everything is spaced out like this because I've tried playing these challenges where you just rush to get things finished and built and done so you can move on to the next thing and that just burns you out. I'm hoping that by doing it this way I can have an easier...

    [CHALLENGE] (v4.3-ish 6/7/18) Refugee to Regent Kingdom Building Challenge

    BTW dragon, since I'm not sure whether or not you've been on the M-FCB forum lately, were you going to continue your attempts on making the mod pack? If so, I've PM'd you a general list of all the things I've got going at the moment (on the Minecraft Forum, not here). Episode 3 has been...

    [CHALLENGE] (v4.3-ish 6/7/18) Refugee to Regent Kingdom Building Challenge

    Besides, I would rather at least have the Core finished before moving on to the Mod side-quests and doing the Wiki. It's turned more into something resembling an adventure game where you have the main quest but then you can choose various side-quests to complete that make your adventure a...

    [CHALLENGE] (v4.3-ish 6/7/18) Refugee to Regent Kingdom Building Challenge

    M-FCB, beyond being under construction, is also being written by a person with no way of acquiring a wiki page or knowledge to code it. It probably wouldn't be that hard to learn, but that doesn't change the fact that it's far outside of my pocket at the moment.

    [CHALLENGE] (v4.3-ish 6/7/18) Refugee to Regent Kingdom Building Challenge

    You don't understand because you found yourself in the middle of a discussion. On challenge threads, this happens a lot among the regulars. If I remember correctly your question was where to progress to from the Wood stage, right? The progression order for the CCC goes dirt -> wood -> stone ->...

    It's not that people don't use spoilers. They do, it's just like, for example, in the CCC OP, there is still a LOT of text to scroll over before you can get around to the important stuff. While there is some sense of organization, it doesn't feel organized enough for me. I've always had small...

    [CHALLENGE] (v4.3-ish 6/7/18) Refugee to Regent Kingdom Building Challenge

    Guys, if you keep complementing me my head will just be so huge I won't even be able to sit up straight. q - q I'm a master at organization and I honestly don't like seeing forum posts that are just large walls of text that aren't divided visually or anything (sorry). I want people that are...

    So I'm currently saving the introductory informational episode number 00 before I start editing the first episode of the let's play I'm doing for M-FCB Let's get some HYPE!

    As I said before, there is more than enough room for more testers. Welcome to the challenge!

    [CHALLENGE] (v4.3-ish 6/7/18) Refugee to Regent Kingdom Building Challenge

    It is later mentioned in the FAQ. Everything is placed around the post in a way that seems to make sense to me. First, you have the list of challenges that are either similar or referenced with links to them. That is followed by the general list of guidelines and then a list of things meant to...

    [CHALLENGE] (v4.3-ish 6/7/18) Refugee to Regent Kingdom Building Challenge

    I was just making sure. I don't like getting nasty because I can usually over-do it fast. I'm getting better, though. The older I get the more maternal instinct seems to kick in (I'm not a mom yet but I plan to be one day and a teacher before that). I guess the incentive in the future will be a...

    [CHALLENGE] (v4.3-ish 6/7/18) Refugee to Regent Kingdom Building Challenge

    So a kid decided to ignore my answer to "why isn't buildcraft on the list" and continued to annoy me. Have you ever ran into a situation like this? How do you handle it? I personally hate getting nasty but I will if I have to. For now, I've told them that their name won't be on the...
