Is the server down or just really slow?

Sorry Zoo, my Mac address changed so the port forward failed. Fixed now.
I believe the server is decently fast.

Sorry guys, server won't be up for most of tomorrow. I gotta bring my laptop to school.

Is there anyone that can reliably host?

Circuit and I had some great adventures today. We built a ton of the sky bridge, figured out where the monsters were coming from. Plugged up the corrupted lands so adventurers could be safe.
We then continued to find the source of the baddies within the corrupted lands. We found these alters that we couldn't destroy. And this strange stone we couldn't mine.
We discovered some awful and dangerous new creatures.
Our mission tomorrow is to destroy those alters and stop the bad guys. How?
We have many new NPCs in our Palace. Especially a Demolitionist.
We got dynamite. Those alters are gonna blow straight to hades.

This mission is dangerous though. We need all the help we can get. Can you guys help us? The server will be up tomorrow after 4 pm central standard time.


We also covered much of the desert, grass and corrupted lands with torches. So go right if you want an adventure. There should be a safe house within reasonable distance just in case night falls.

We should arrange times where we all play at once. That would be sweet.

Hey guys, we have a new mission:

Quote
Hey Guys. This is the skelleton stadium. It's sole purpose is to destroy the skelleton curse.

This will be our next mission. We need 3+ people.

How it works: 2 people stand in the stadium. One person goes in the temple and initiates the curse. That 1 person runs into the stadium. All 3 start fighting. Optionally there could be a 4th person outside the stadium waiting as backup in case someone dies.

When someone dies they get sent to the spawn point here...

In which they immediately re-enter the stadium and battle. That way we constantly keep the skelleton's attention. Long enough to kill it.

Here. I will give a 1 person example

Sigh. Screen recording software is crap...

Just a sec


See. Just like that. Except I was super laggy cause of the screen recording software.

With this stadium and 3+ people, we will win
Skelleton Stadium Instructions(Skelleton Stadium Test Battle Video Below)

This is our next mission. I haven't set a date, but the stadium is ready.

Who's up for it?

Oh, I forgot to mention.

There's a giant stairway below the temple that's guarded by a giant skelleton head.
You can't enter it until the skelleton curse is broken.

This leads me to believe that there is treasure beyond your wildest dreams down there.

I should probably recap what happened last night:

Zoo led an expedition to a temple right of the corrupted lands. We built a safe house above the temple cause every time we tried to go into the temple, a giant skelleton head would kill us.
We talked to the old man and he said he was cursed. I activated the curse and a giant skelleton appeared and promptly killed us.
After we made the safe house, an Arms Dealer showed up. He died a couple times but re-appears every day. So we bought these super awesome machine gun like weapons. Called Minisharks.
Kurt got on and we bought him one. Though Kirt had to travel 5000 feet from the GMG Palace to get to our position.
The minisharks are epic. They shoot super fast lighted bullets that hit 20+ each. Enough to mow down many enemies.
With 3 people online we attempted to kill the skeleton a few more times. Changing our strategy each time.
Our best attempt got the skelleton to half HP. He used his head roll and killed all of us.

So we put our brains together and Zoo had to go.
We figured if we could jump and move vertically then we could dodge the head roll. But his arms are too long. So we needed a bigger fighting space.

Kurt and I extended the sky bridge to the temple, lighted it and Kurt left. I spent some time making the stadium.
I figure if we're spread out in the stadium, he can't kill us all cause he can only attack one person at a time.

Optionally if you guys want a different strategy, we could tear down a stadium wall and put your magic boots to good use.
The fight would be carried out onto the sky bridge and you could run fast enough to stay ahead to not be hit but to keep hitting the skelleton with Minisharks.

I can only imagine what that gaint skelleton head is protecting inside the temple...
Nuclear warheads? Infinite riches? Spell scrolls? Beautiful princesses? Dead rats?

Whatever's down there... I'm sure it can help us destroy the demon alters and the Destroyer of Worlds in the corrupted lands.

Terraria has been discontinued. No more updates(besides bug fixes), no more bosses, no more enhancements, not even a mod engine for players to mod freely.

I just hope they release it as open source with the development kit.

Edit:
A new game being made similar to Terraria by some of the Terraria crew is called Starbound. It'll be like Terraria but with more storyline. And possibly narration. They say it'll be better.
I can only hope.
Edit 2:
Starbound is coming out this Summer.
