Larry's Online Sequencer Minecraft Server
by Cool172 of OS News
OS User LarryTheMaskMan was tired of his personal Minecraft worlds
only attracting a handful of friends and players across the web, so he took to
OS to start a new one. The comparatively large userbase here would prove
itself eager to join OS-craft, as it would be called. Currently, 150 members
can be found in the 'Official OS-craft' discord server.
In its early days, there were many complications to running a Minecraft
server fit for the Online Sequencer community. It was originally a bedrock
edition [a version of the game which runs on multiple platforms, including
console, mobile, and PC] server, so that it would be accessible to the most
players. During this time, OS-craft was very active, with a few different
teams and players always online. Of course there were occasional disputes,
but nothing got in the way of the server's operation. Larry had a handful of
simple rules in order to prevent these things, like those against thievery,
and respecting the rules of other teams when on their property.
After only a few weeks, nearly all player activity dried up. He cites the
launch time of the server, being around holidays to blame. Now that
everyone was back in school and work, there was little reason or motivation
to join OS-craft and chip away at projects.
In an attempt to prevent OS-craft from fizzling out again, he started a
new server which used a service allowing it to support both java [an often
preferred version of the game, which only runs on computers] and bedrock
edition. This did not work out, and the server crashed too often for any
gameplay to be enjoyed. From this point on, OS-craft became java only,
meaning far fewer players have access to it. A consequence of this has been
the necessity to coordinate active times on the server, so that it is less
lonely. On previous servers in their beginning weeks, people would be
online at all hours of the day. In addition to this, the only team yet to join
is Pattako, led by Larry himself. It has over a dozen members, but only a
handful play often. A few independent players also call the server home.
So far, the newest OS-craft server has been somewhat of a success, with
player activity remaining relatively low, but not trending down any further.
Pattako is working on team infrastructure projects such as building a town
center and a few different farms to supply the team.
Larry hopes that OS-craft grows into a larger community that does not
need his constant attention to maintain player activity. It does not seem
like this will happen unless Online Sequencer itself receives an onslaught of
new members, but Os-craft will continue hosting Minecraft java edition
servers for the forseeable future.
Alex's Take: the Sustainability of Using Violins
by Alex! of OS News
So you know how pseudosustain is common amongst the elites of this site.
The gap between the 2 classes are really quite something. Is it really useful?
Why do the elites get to have good violins while the poor, non sustainable
users can't figure it out. Sickening if you ask me #makeviolinsustainable
