Anybody interested?
I have a 1 year rental on a realms server, that I set up for some of my students to do school projects on.
School ends in 4 weeks, or so, and I will have about 5 months left on the server.
I can let the last couple of kids stay and play over the summer; or I can clear them off and let it host us. Or, I can do both and get the 3 kids who are still playing (all are spec ed kids - nice, but rather crazy in the game environment and all are in the 14-18 year old range) continue to play and invite those who want to play do so.
I can also start a new world, or you can continue to use the one they are messing around it (they are in creative mode - so there really are some crazy things in the game).
Realms servers are a bit different than just a IP address hosted server. First, I have to have your user name and send you an invite, instead of you just getting the IP and you logging in. Second, I believe they are hosted in the US, and I know I didn't have many issues with Dales but you never know. Third is that it will auto update to the most current MC version; whether it breaks the game or not. I haven't seen a game breaker yet - but it can happen. Other than that is it just little things that you probably wouldn't notice.
I wouldn't be doing any maps.
If interested, you can post your username below (or PM me) along with what you would prefer to happen with the few students who are on it.
My personal preferences:
Let the 3 kids say on it (we just have to watch our language, but that shouldn't be an issue).
Restart with a new world - normal survival mode. The 3 kids would likely stop playing to be honest, as they are not really adapt at survival, just creative.
I don't have anything in mind to build right now - but hanging out with some folks now and then would be fun. Note: most of July I will be in the middle of adopting my baby girl, so I won't be online myself I expect - but after we get back home between diapers who knows!
