Hi minecraftians!
You may remember my 2nd video being about PvPZone Player vs Player server! Well, here is a mini-guide on how it works!
When you log on to the server, you will start out in a room with glowstone and glass flooring. There should be some obsidian portal-like frames in the room as well. There is a sign next to them. These are lively updated to how many people are on what course (Note: after a game has finished, it may get a little lagged). To enter a warzone, go through an obsidian portal and go through the coloured gate. The coloured gates arrange you randomly into one of the color-coded teams. You will be wearing your team colour's wool on your head. Now you can change your class! Here are the different classes:
Fighter - Iron Sword, Stone Pickaxe, 3x Cooked Porkchop (Armor: Gold Leggings, Gold Boots)
Tank - Stone Sword, Wooden Pickaxe, 3x Golden Apples, 15x Pumpkin Seeds (Armor: Diamond Chestplate, Gold Leggings)
Elemental - Clay Ball, Gold Sword, Cake, Water Bucket, Pumpkin (Armor: None)
Warlock - Iron Bars, Wooden Hoe, Leaves, Book, Shears, Brick, Seeds (Armor: None)
Builder - Diamond Pickaxe, 4s 64x Stone Bricks, Diamond Shovel, 64x Redstone (too many items to continue) (Armor: Iron Chestplate)
Healer - Melon Block, Wheat, Leaves, Rose, 52x Redstone, Sandstone, Stick (Armor: Gold Chestplate)
Spy - 16x Sugar Cane, Feather, Melon Seeds, Stone Sword, 64x Flint*, 32x Red Mushroom, Wooden Hoe (Armor: Iron Boots)
Anarchist - 8x TNT*, Flint and Steel, 64x Redstone, 32x Lever, 32x Stone Pressure Plate, 10x Dispenser, 64x Arrow, Diamond Shovel (Armor: Iron Boots)
Archer - Bow, 64x Arrow*, 2x Apple, 32x Bone, Wooden Sword, Wooden Pickaxe, Bowl, Cookie (Armor: Chainmail Chestplate)
* = After purchasing a certain spell, this can be regenerated
4s = 4 stacks of 64 stone bricks
But, each item has a certain power (excluding armor and most Builder supplies). I will put up another post about that.
The current courses available are:
Castle
Sand
Island
Nuketown
Neighbor
Exile
Obsidian Hall
Ruins
Crucible
Adrenaline
Fourway
Prisoner
Push Arena
Freeze
Escort
This list is updated each week, and the 'cycle' is chosen by the players of the server. The list that I have done is going to be updated ASAP when the cycle changes. All courses are Capture the Flag except Spleef, in which you are playing Spleef. Also, in Spleef, you do not have the classes, you have the Spleef class, in which you get 5 pieces of white wool to repair your area if it get fully destroyed.
If you win a game you will receive two items: one gold bar (or two depending if the course has been played a lot of times or not) and diamonds. You can sell diamonds for money, each diamond is worth 0.25. You can use money to buy spell upgrades (which will be in another post).
That is just about it! So get on down and start Capturing the Flag!
Ciao,
Mariobros980

ObsidianMiners YouTube Update!
Hi miners and crafters,
Mario here with more updates for ObsidianMiners!
Me, Crazy and Kalo are still getting videos ready, but I still haven't had chance to discuss Mod Spotlight yet! Please be pacient while we get this across, but in the meantime, I will be uploading a lot of content!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A new playlist will be added, called 'Custom Map Madness'! Yes, the name is self-explanatory. Me, Crazy and Kalo will be playing custom maps that people have created! Here's how you could get yours on YouTube!
1. Make it challenging yet not extremely hard!
2. My favorite type of maps are Adventure and Puzzle! (don't know about the others)
3. Make a forum post with your map download there!
If we haven't commented on your custom map, than comment on THIS POST with the forum link. Also, if I have played your map, I will comment on the forum post again with a Diamond Rating. Here's what each one means:
1 diamond: Not really good in any way at all. There was a slightly good point, but please, you need to improve mega-epic style.
2 diamonds: Not really good. It began to get better near the middle, but then the quality dropped again. Needs improving for definite.
3 diamonds: Bad. The beginning made it sound awesome, but there wasn't a very catchy story. A lot of improving is needed.
4 diamonds: It's ok. Your map has potential, but very VERY little. It was a bumpy car journey of good and bad bits.
5 diamonds: It's definitely decent. There are a lot of bugs and a few things that could be tweaked. Little potential, but if the problems get fixed, than it is promising.
6 diamonds: This is more than decent. This map was pretty good! It had that ZING! of excitement, but needs the element of difficulty balancing out.
7 diamonds: Good! I enjoyed playing this map, it was quite fun. A promising storyline made this a rather great map. Still needs some tweaking though...
8 diamonds: Great! Almost fantastic, but still some little bugs and ways to cheat that make this map less fun then it should be.
9 diamonds: Fantastic! Only one or two things that are still wrong with this map, but it is a very well thought-out map!
10 diamonds: Unbelievable!!! Just, impeccable! No bugs, fun map, fluent storyline, what else does a map need? Not much! You are worth the diamonds!
BONUSES!!!
1 chest: There were some good hidden secrets in the map!
1 flint & steel: Evidently over 72 hours of work to build this map, and the redstone provided is fantastic!
Waiting List:

We will NOT be adding anyone to our channel, but if you put Minecraft videos on YouTube, we are looking to start a MineCraft group/community! We can have around 5-7 people at the start (including us), so that's about 2-4 open spots!
Let us know in the comments on any custom maps or anything else cool!

Mod Spotlight and Server Spotlight RETURNS!
Hi miners and crafters,
I have now got a new YouTube channel that I'm running with Crazy and 2003kalo, and it's called 'ObsidianMiners'. We will have some vids uploaded soon, but here's some stuff that is DEFINITELY coming.
I have now got a new YouTube channel that I'm running with Crazy and 2003kalo, and it's called 'ObsidianMiners'. We will have some vids uploaded soon, but here's some stuff that is DEFINITELY coming.
- Mario plays Minecraft
- Server Spotlight
- Mod Spotlight
- Server Xperience
- Crazy plays Minecraft (not yet confirmed)
- 2003kalo plays Minecraft (not yet confirmed)
At the moment, there are NO OPEN SPACES on the channel. Anyways, I'll now explain more about each series.
Mario plays Minecraft
Mariobros980 will play a single-player survival server. In the first episode, he will build a house and get prepared, but then it's down to YOU. Whether you play Minecraft or not, you can tell Mario what you want to see built. If your idea is chosen, you will see him build it next episode!
Server Spotlight
The name says it all! All three of us will go on a server together and, if we like it, we will make an around-10-minute video about it. So, make sure you give your server some great stuff, because we might be coming to it!
Mod Spotlight
Technically, a spotlight for mods. There is one mod that I [Mariobros980] will always have in my vids, called TooManyItems. This is a mod that allows you to spawn in items if you have collected them once (I will NOT be spawning in items on Mario plays Minecraft).
Server Xperience
Again, about servers, but if we enjoy a server THAT MUCH, we will actually give you some of our experience on the server. A bit like Server Spotlight, but a bit more!
Crazy plays Minecraft (not yet confirmed)
Same as Mario plays Minecraft, except with Crazydude676.
2003kalo plays Minecraft (not yet confirmed)
Same as Mario and Crazy plays Minecraft, except with 2003kaloful.
SO, that sums that up! Let us know in the comments on any idea you ALREADY have for our channel!

Nightplace Survival: Faction Info!
Hi miners and crafters,
Following in from the Nightplace review, here's some info about the factions me and Crazy have set up. We have already made ourselves enemies, so we can battle versus each other. Here's the info of the servers (this will be updated LIVE!). Color code: blue is admin, red is mod and black is member of faction.
DarkVenom
Owner: Mariobros980
Mods: N/A
People: Mariobros980
Looking for people to join. I will not have an application form because posting links over the server will probably get you banned. Just do /msg mariobros980 i want to join darkvenom. I will tell you if the /msg command isn't unlocked to everyone, so don't worry! You will earn mod if you work hard in the faction.
Base Info: Our base in currently being built. The current building we are working on is: spawn point. If you would like to help with building, do /msg mariobros980 i want to help with _________ (whatever building we're working on). A list of people below of who is helping on the bulding (once we're in progress, you will not be able to join).
People building spawn point: Mariobros980 (in progress)
Next building: DarkVenom Shop (after spawn is built)
Viper
Owner: Crazydude676
Mods: N/A
People: Crazydude676, _______ (can't remember name)
Looking for people to join. To join, just do /msg crazydude676 i want to join viper. If the /msg command is locked than I will inform you. Currently working on spawn, You can help with the spawn if you want, you just need cobblestone. Then go to the base. There should be a cobble in-progress house-looking thing. If you can help, we can move onto other areas.
Base Info: Our base is in a desert biome. Once you have joined, I will send you a message on where our base exactly is. You will need to message me with '/msg crazydude676 i want to help build _______ (name of building). If you don't apply, you do not need to worry about helping build.
People building 'spawn point': Crazydude676 (in progress)
Next building: N/A (still deciding)
If you choose to join, if you work hard and help a lot, you will become a mod. Mods can invite other people, but please only invite people if you know they will not wreck our place then leave. I will report anyone who tries to destroy ANYTHING in either faction (it doesn't count if you are not in the faction as we claim every bit of land we build on). This means that nobody except members of the faction can destroy it or build on it.
Messageboard
DarkVenom Storage Room
We will be making an upstairs storage room at spawn. It costs 1 sign for a week of storage. After this week, if you are not online, we will store your stuff in another room which only I [Mariobros980] can access. Then when you come back online, ask for your stuff and I will retrieve it from the Overtime Room. I will private your storage like this:
[private]
(your name here)
Mariobros980
I will put my name on it so when your time runs out, I can unprivate the chest for someone else (I will NOT steal anyone's stuff).
We will be working very hard to make our factions some of the most lethal! If you aren't bothered, then scroll down and read about some early stuff. Let us know in the comments on your thoughts!

Server Spotlight #1: Nightplace Survival!
Hi miners and crafters,
I have chosen the first server to be in the Server Spotlight! It is called the Nightplace Survival Server, and it is probably one of the best servers I've tried! Here's some information about it!
Name: Nightplace survival
Server IP: 67.222.149.195:25589
Max Slots: 40
Snapshots:
This is where you spawn
Here is one area in the server
And believe me or not, there are too many parts of the world to describe. Crazydude676 has bought Minecraft as well, and is currently playing on this server too! He thinks the same, and we both have factions that are enemies (mine is called DarkVenom, Crazy's is Viper). Yes, they have snake-like names, but we like them all the same as I'm sure you do!
This server uses the MyPortal plugin (I think it's called that) which allows users to teleport to different areas (there is 3 builds, 1 nonbuild, a mine and much more!). I will explain the factions in another post, so don't be too worried if you want to join. There are dozens more plugins, but one of the main ones is called ChestShop. This is where you stock stuff in a chest, then place a sign with buy/sell prices on. They also uses the SignLock plugin, in which you can lock chests by placing a sign like this:
[private]
(player name 1)
(player name 2)
(player name 3)
I have made this the main server I will be going on for a while. I used to go on it about a week ago, but a faction destroyed our homeland, so I quit for a while. The server was formed in 2010, and has been advertising a lot on PlanetMinecraft.
This is really as much as I can say, the rest is for you to find out! An action-packed server with dozens of plugins, factions...oops, forgot to mention the staff! They are really kind and will answer questions (only ask once, they will have seen it unless they were AFK or offline).
Overall Rating
Exciting: 9/10
Plugins: 8/10
Staff: 9/10
Spawn: 9/10
OVERALL AVERAGE: 8.5/10
I would've given it a 10/10, but other people don't like it as much as me and Crazy, and because there's also room for improvement. Anyways, have you tried the server? Let us know in the comments!
