Guide pages.
Fixed the banner image not showing.
Fixed sponser links.
Cleaned up the HTML.
Started bio pages.
Not much left to do. Thank god
Need to try and set up some form of membership to....
It's also nice to see Pearce posting something on here to. About bloody ti...
MineCraft Update #4
Posted by Pearce on 00:01
Today, the newest version of hMod was put onto the server (134) and so far it seems to be working perfectly. Although, please bear in mind this is not an "official" version of hMod, so there may be other problems some time down the line.Although, as a result, we have been able to set up the server to a state similar to what it was before the last major update. What has changed you asked?Well, moderating powers that had more purpose as "cheats" than as actual tools have been removed or limited, so we will not be seeing anymore adminium structures popping up anymore, aswell as this, teleporting and warping has been disabled (as it made the game too easy and was the cause of several unfortunate - but hillarious - deaths).Another good side to this new version of hMod, is that it appears to have...

Website Update #1
Posted by LongThumb on 14:06
Little update about the new website.
Currently got it hosted but still being made, got about half the pages done.
Currently working on a monthly newsletter which you can subscribe to which will contain all the latest news, steam deals and competitions if I can get some sponsors.
Also if I can find the right code for it I'm gonna put a membership up, free and premium.
Stay tuned for more updat...
MineCraft Update #3
Posted by LongThumb on 13:50
Notch is currently working on moving the servers to the Amazon cloud so during this time you may be unable to connect.
But from what we have seen it seems it's almost done as login now takes far less attempts to get in. (Average 2 attempts compared to 10).
If your still having problems signing in then until Notch finishes the transfer there isn't much we can do.
Also for those who do get on, we do realise that a lot of you are seeing more frequent chunk errors.
We do not know what is the cause yet, although there are two possibilities, it is either the temp fix Notch has done or the server movement is causing the problem, either way we will know more in the coming days.
On another note, those who hate typing my use or new MineCraft specific Mumble server to talk over.

MineCraft Update #2
Posted by LongThumb on 12:25
For those who use our MC server you may notice sudden lag or the inability to log in to our server.
This is nothing to do with our server, the cause is MC.net is being flaky, we do not know as of yet why this is happening but if you do manage to log into our server we suggest that you stay logged in even if your not currently playing.
In other news, yesterday we once again reset the map and today I decided to put a vote out towards the use of hMod or Bukkit on our server, so far there has been 2 votes against putting it back on. Now if we decide to not put it back on and Multiplay allow us not to use it then it's going.
If we cannot then we will disable all / comman...

Little update #1
Posted by LongThumb on 14:19
Our MineCraft server is down to just one mod now after I decided to spawn 20 ghast's on our server for shit's and giggles, which tbh, is far cop as we did have to many.
I've also removed the ability to Teleport and Warp, also I will soon be removing the ability to spawn items and mobs.
The less cheating the better.
Some server news:
L4D server still going strong.
Both TF2 server's are empty, come on people get in there.
HL2DM server gone.
Gonna do some work on the new site tonight, see what I can get done during testing of the new graphics card.
Also if you play our servers, spread the word about ...

MineCraft Update #1
Posted by LongThumb on 13:33
Today I looked into one of our mod's called CraftBook.
All I knew was it could give us brides, gates etc. What I didn't know was that we could make our own recipes for crafting materials as well as making a more advanced minecart system. So I set about making new recipes for some materials and this is what I got.

Now by the end of February The Average Joe's will have a new home, gone will be the limited blogger site, valiantly killed by the fully fledged HTML site.
It will be easier to use and nicer to look at, as well as having a guide on how to play each of our games/servers so you fit in a lot easier.
I can give you a preview of the MineCraft, thanks to some nice guy called "Herobrine" we have a nice illustrated guide to help you. I've posted 3 of the 12 pages up.
Bear in mind that we will only do guides for games that become a permanent addition to our collection.
Stay tuned as next week I may have a preview of the new site to wet your appet...

Happy New Year.
Posted by LongThumb on 13:25
Just for you, as a new years gesture we've decided to give you access to not only one TF2 server, but two. Not only that, but the new server is able to fit 32 people in it.
So what you waiting for, get in there and kill people.
Did we mention the killing is enhanced by the state of the art RTD system?
Also a quick farewell to HL2DM server, since it's been here it's been empty so it goes to the dog...
