All up to date with the newest bukkit beta build. Thanks to jdkomo for getting me on a new minecraft binge. At some point in the near or far future Demeter will be moved onto a virtual machine on a more powerful computer. Not sure when it all depends on when I get around to actually learning how to visualize things! Happy crafting.

Running 1.7.2
Hey guys, work is hard and I had started to play some other games, though I always find myself coming back to this game every few updates or so. With some minimal testing I have gotten the server updated to 1.7.2! Just like always it is open to anyone to play on for as long as they like. Any suggestions of what should be added to the server can be posted on this here blog.

Bukkit 1.7.2 Dev build released
The dev build is out, however I will not be upgrading the server right away as a lot has changed in the build and there is quite a bit to test. We will continue to be on 1.6.4 for the time being. Somewhere down the line I might have a demo world for new Bukkit versions but that is not a very high priority on the list of things to do.
Happy Crafting!

Near future of demeter
Hey Crafters,
This is a post about how donations will work in the near future. In the past you were able to donate money to the server and receive in game money as a result. I am now changing the rules so that you can no longer break blocks in the world unless you donate a dollar to the world. We will also be limiting the ability to craft certain items and mine specific blocks unless you donate every other month. These blocks include but are not limited to iron, gold, and diamond ores. Claiming land will also change, for every dollar you donate you will be allowed to claim up to two plots of land. If you donate $10 you will be given an unlimited amount of whatever block you want as well as the ability to fly. for $20 you can enter creative mode and fly around. If you donate $50 you will be able to teleport around the map as you see fit and ignore the limitations of other player's plots, allowing you to build and destroy block in them. For $100 you will get all the powers that the admin has, including the ability to ban other players and user world edit to mass create and remove blocks.
I truly do hope that this make the game a better experience for all of the player who join our loving server.

Ok, but for real.
Donations are stupid and I never liked them, the game should not be pay to win. Ever. It just makes the game not fun. But I really like the idea of having a fair way to sponsor the game if you want to catch up with friends or spontaneously build a mega structure that is not part of a scheduled group build. Donations are here to stay in the same form that they were in the past: You will get 1000 chips, in game money, per dollar per dollar up to 10 dollars. Yah that sounds a bit confusing so let me explain it a little more.
$1 = 1000 Chips (1000 chips per dollar)
$2 = 4000 Chips (2000 chips per dollar)
$3 = 9000 Chips (3000 chips per dollar)
$10 = 100000 Chips (10000 chips max per dollar)
$11 = 110000 Chips (10000 chips max per dollar)
However there will be one big key difference in how the donations work. Instead of going to me to fund the server, now that I am fully capable of funding it on my own:

all the donations will go directly to the EFF
Because honestly, they will do a hell of a lot more good with the money then I would plus they are my favorite nonprofit. You will see this change appear on the website as soon as I figure out the best way to streamline the donation process.
Happy crafting!

Aaaand Were Back
After a bit longer then expected the server is back online running 1.6.4. Remember that the new server address is
and the official web page is now at demetermine.com (which will be getting an update soon). As you know I try to have the server available for free, and I will try my best to keep it that way. However if you do feel like helping out the server some opportunities will arise for you to do that.

Minecraft Server Moving
Hey players, as I am in a long process of moving to a new state I will be taking down the minecraft server for a month or so. I am sorry that the server will be down, but it will come back online once I get settled into my new place. Once I bring it back online I will also work to update it to the newest version of minecraft, whatever that may be. Thanks everyone for playing so far and I hope to see you again online soon.

New plugins on the server
Hello crafters!
There are new plugins on the server now! Huzzah. With the introduction of the new plugins your plots are now 100% safe. Item frames and paintings can no longer be destroyed by people who do not own the plot you are in. Feel free to display your accomplishments as much as you want! Furthermore TNT will no longer damage your plots. No longer shall you be afraid of TNT damaging anything you own. It will still damage you however. With the new addition of protection against TNT we have opted to bring creepres back into the game, fret naught my good citizens for creepers can no longer damage blocks, only you. A final note about TNT is that when it explodes outside of a plot it will drop none of the blocks it destroys, this is to help deter the use of TNT while still making it available for use.
Along with the TNT update we have also added a new feature called questing. This allows a single dungeon or event to be created in order for multiple players to gain the prize at the end. The plugin functions using command blocks and thus can only be created by an admin. So if you create a quest and want it to be available to the other players then ask an admin to add a quest to it!
In addition to the afforementioned updates there are also some minor updates to the look and feel of the functions providing new colors and aliases.
