It should be simple majority vote or if only two are on and one wants it, then be polite and oblige.

Sometimes night time can be alot of fun in a messed up way, but if someone needs to get to a bed to save themselves some from deep shit, it's not hard to accommodate.

The thing was, i was just starting, i couldnt mine yet, and all i could do was day work, wolf left to instead of go to bed which is fine, but necris, who shall remain nameless :P , went AFK, sitting for 2 or 3 night cycles in a row not being able to do things kinda makes it boring :crazy: .

I wasnt shitty, i thought it was amusing, i counted pixels on blocks of dirt :P

Im happy to go through the night now, but i'd rather not, i just get near a bed and see if anyone wants to zzzzz or not, for me this was an isolated case, how often dont you have work you can do at night??

The post in here was trying to get Necris's attention as i didnt know what was going on, more about friendly ribbing than hair pulling......... next time i'll put a :) after it ..

As I said when I got back, I was on a work related phone call, and that wasn't intentional as I thought i'd disconnected

Anyways what happened to the actual survival aspect of this game, don't get me wrong the bed can come in handy, but as I don't yet have a mob grinder running, I use the night times to get me mob items that i need, which can't be done in the daytime, and is too dangerous to do in mines as at home I'm in a safe haven and can skeet shoot all night long.

The bed at the moment is being treated as if it's a necessity where the night time was just a game glitch that has yet to be fixed, when nighttime is there for a REASON. It has it's uses as-well

That's all I'm gonna say on the matter, cause that's my opinion.

P.S. Didn't know you were a harry potter fan wolf :P

I don't really like doing stuff in the darkness, unless I'm building underwater or in my house.
Much prefer doing stuff in the daylight and even then rarely mine as I have a tendency to get snuck up on by a creeper and blown up when I do.

I leave all that mining stuff to you guys while I build things and farm food/resources.

Generally I'll make my way to the bed and post 'in' or 'in bed', failing that I'll say if I'm too far and will logoff when ppl are all in bed at the same time and wait 10secs before logging back in.

I admit, when you are entirely focus on building then the beds are a godsend. If you need to plot out or clear and area and can only work on your plans above ground for the moment then night time just becomes and annoyance.

BUT!

Necris is right, night time is there for a reason. It's fun that you need to hurry up and dig yourself a hole at night for safety. There's that rush of trying to get enough things done during the day so that what you just built is safe and secure. There's a buzz knowing that you're pottering away inside crafting things or building and those monsters are outside and can't get in because you've done your job right. That's part of the game.

I'm inclined to be polite and oblige those that want the safety of a bed, but I would rather play the scenario out. Just throwing it out there....

People should take a bed with them if they plan to mine continuously at least then theres little to no downtime.

Problem with everyone not sleeping on queue is last time i had 3 creepers out front of my house, I had to lead them away but they blew up taking a chunk out of my landscape, since hitting them with a sword just pisses em off and they explode in your face.

But, you also have to realise that most of us dont have all day to sit there, we cant build everything in one hit, if i get an hour in one go its rare, i dont want to sit there because someone who isnt actually playing at the time didnt disconnect.

Its all been blown out of proportion anyway.

This has nothing to do with what you said branden. Wolf just dragged you into it with that quote. Him and Necris were having a bit of a tiff last night over it. The language was pretty funny.

Nah man, not you at all. It's a point worth discussing but the only agro is between those two. Wolf calls Necris a jerk and an asshole, Necris deliberately stays out of bed, it's just like a soapie. They'll work it out. Again.

Sorry Brandon didn't mean to make this look like your thing. I've been getting really pisses at Necris.

Necris's afks are hardly an isolated ocourance, neither are me and jam just lying in bed ( separately) waiting for necris as our world fill up with creepers.

This is why I'm saying as a group we need to decide if it's one way or the other. I'm happy with having a night cycle, but will build differently if that the case. It's not fair to have to run all the way to a bed and lie in it waiting around for someone who is afk or just plain rude.

I'm here to mine and craft not wait on someone. I'd like the group to decide and to stick to it.
