  So I woke up dead this morning with some helpful signs from Iya letting me know i had died and that my stuff was in the chest. Thanks Iya.
  
  At first I don't know how i died but after finding my water flowing off the mountain and a dirt block inside my home and considering where I was facing I think I have the general idea.
  
  1) Enderman was on my mountain and picked up one of the dirt blocks on the edge of my hemp farm
  2) It started raining so Enderman teleported inside my facility
  3) It saw me staring at it and attacked me until I died
  
  At least that's what I'm piecing together judging by the evidence.
  
  EDIT: Wait...2 other dirt blocks that I certainly didn't put there. I have everything flat. So the Enderman made more than one trip to my home. God dammit!

  
  
  Don't forget the sign pointing to the dog. *nod nod*
  
  
  Oh btw I killed myself on your elevator earlier. :B
  
  Oh also I used your elevator. :V

  Ya, something is up with pullies and elevators as we found out this morning with how many times we both died :(
  
  Seems to have a real issue going between moving and stationary. Going to see if jumping before it stops saves me from falling to my death when I get back. You put my stuff I dropped when I died in my chest Iya?

  Boop, late reply.
  
  Yup I put your stuff in the same chest as I did last time.
  Saaaafe and sound.

  It's like...
  
  Um, making setups of machines to achieve automation.
  
  [SPOILER="Spoiler"]Like creating systems powered by Windmills/Waterwheels to generate mechanical power to power machines like:
  Millstones, which grind down items (Bone->Bonemeal, Coal->Carbon Power).
  Saws to cut wood into smaller pieces (those smaller pieces which can be used in place of whole pieces of wood in most recipes to lower wood consumption, i.e. 4 Wood Blocks cut into 8 half blocks, then use half blocks to make a chest).
  Hoppers which can store items that fall onto them (useful for sweeping items into them from sources like automated farms/mob grinders).
  Turntables, which can turn clay blocks into raw figures of things like pots, urns, planters, and a useful block called a crucible.
  Kiln, which hardens the things you make on the turntable.
  
  This doesn't change a whole lot as far as new content goes (Like no new dimensions/mobs), but it changes quite a few normal rules. (most of which are configurable, like making it so things like bonemeal and reeds need to be grinded in a millstone to obtain bonemeal/sugar, or making chickens not lay eggs until they've been fed seeds, etc.)
  
  It does add a new kind of crafting material: Steel.[/SPOILER]
  
  
  It's a pretty neat mod, all in all, though.

  Oh it's more for builders then... :(

  After a quick search I found this:
  
  

  
  Just wanted to put this up to let people know I'm aware that the Pulleys & Platforms currently have a number of issues, mostly visual, but they will also *occasionally* let you fall through them as well.
  
  I'm leaving this as-is for the time being as I realized while porting to 1.3.2 that they'll require a rewrite in preparation for the mod going multiplayer. As a result, I put a few band-aids on them for the time being so that they're still perfectly useable for item elevators and such, but I also didn't want to invest significant time in them given I'm going to be ripping them apart shortly.
  
  Anyways, please be patient with them until I have a chance to perform the rewrite. The issues with them are known and will be resolved shortly.

  This was a month ago. I assume it's the same issue when it went smp :( So for now, I'd say, don't use my elevator unless you want to take the risk of dying. Still need to test the jumping portion of it. Doesn't seem like he's ever mastered those.
  
  EDIT: Looks like jumping just before it stops prevents you from falling through.

  I think I'm done, for now.
  
  Feel free to gut my base for resources. xD
  
  I had a lot of fun, but I'm finished.
  
  
  Keep having fun~

  awww sorry to see you go Iya. It was really fun playing with ya!
  
  In other news, got my pig farm going. Need a lot of tallow for mining charges if I'm going to blow up this blasted mountain that's in the middle of my temple of light. Need to take it down so I can build a nice tower in it's place.
  
  Sarah helped me get a smoothstone generator going. I also made collecting dung easier by getting my wolves on to their own floating block and placing dispensers above each one. With the flip of a switch all the dogs get fed and their dung gets spit into the waterflow which then goes a hopper so now I can just flip a switch, go do something else and come back and collect the dung 8D.
  
  Also automated my soul urn productions into 3 separate components which could theoretically be plugged into each other. Will do that once I get rid of that mountain and start building my tower. Automated it using block dispensers + turntable redstone alternator and stone slabs + block to determine how long it will be before the signal goes off.
  
  Also finished my path for my temple, just lack the jack-o-laterns. I need a closer pumpkin farm. My original one is too far away and won't grow while I'm busy excavating.

  How come I only see King on? Where's everyone else? Come on people, come play! D:

  Maybe we are the only ones here that find minecraft really appealing? It's rather disappointing either way. Would be nice to have more active people running about. Is Better than Wolves too challenging? I've found it to be quite fun. Especially the automation challenges. Once you get going, it becomes really easy. It's the starting part that is the hardest.

  I've been busy with life. The only free time I've had since last Wednesday has been at 9 PM (Pacific Coast Time). And by then everyone all you guys have went to bed, so I don't bother logging on. :/

  I know right? the applications that this mod brings makes minecraft more challenging and fun, Its adds things in to grind for.
  
  and be rewarded with power steel tools and more aesthetics to make your house/fortress/mansion/factory look nice.
