Due to issues with a few people, we had to postpone the Project ... It's nearly finished being cleaned up, though, and should be back in business by next Saturday!
The Ava server network is currently made up of three privately hosted servers. We have a wonderfully diverse community, fun-loving staff, and easy-to-follow rules.
We have been up and running since [about] April 2012 - Originally, I (Kytten) ran the server off of my computer at home, but when my fiance realized how irritating that was becoming, he offered to let me put it on one of his dedicated servers, which nearly trippled our power, and blasted the old server out of the water.
Our players have varied in age from 8 to 46, and we welcome anyone outside of those ages, as well. (Anyone under twelve, though, will need parental permission, as the server is well above PG-13, most of the time, and we cannot monitor all situations.)
What do the servers' names mean?
Ava is an older English word that means "of all." It is generally not used in the way that I've used it, but it fit the image I had for the server.
Världar is a Sweedish word that means "worlds."
Zwaar is a Dutch word that means "Heavy."
Modi is a shortened form of the Sweedish word "modifieringar," which means "modifications."
Together, these words are meant to mean "Of all worlds" and "Of all heavy mods," however, Ava Modi has been switched over to Vanilla 1.8, and will no longer be modded.
Ava Världar - Modded 1.7.2 is based on decorative, naturey mods. Ava Världar - Vanilla 1.7.10 is Vanilla with chocolate syrup. There are a handful of mechanics that have been tweaked to provide a fun, new experience, while keeping the general game the same. Ava Zwaar Modi is vanilla 1.8, with as many of our usual plugins as we can currently use.
A few years ago, when I first started playing Minecraft, I built a few Star Trek ships ... They were, however, built on a server that has since had worlds deleted and is likely now down ...
I've been wanting to rebuild this specific one, but I can't seem to figure out what type of ship it is. The others I actually wrote down the names of, thankfully, but this was done so long before them that I didn't even think about it. Anyone have any ideas?
I would rebuild it from the picture, but I want to use the actual stats, this time, instead of going the "ok, well this amount of space is going to be one block" direction
I'm sure most of you have read about or heard about WordWork's Closed map Experiment ... If not, I recommend taking a look. The story is pretty interesting, though a lot of people have pointed out parts that seem unrealistic and it's assumed to be a hoax.
Information:
Following a post by the Minecrafter, Veznic, on another site (That won't be mentioned, due to it's x-rated nature), I decided to start up a world to reproduce this experiment.
However, we've decided to take this a bit further than what was available at the time of the original project and create our own customized map, before transporting it to a sky world. The entire map is 352x352, including the border of bedrock (and glass, to provide a better sky view), with a playable area of 350x350. The map's nether counterpart's size is a total of 102x102, with a playable area of 100x100, and has also been transported from a natural world into a sky world and surrounded with bedrock and glass.
To prevent falling into the void (and discourage breaking the glass and building a secret bunker), we've implemented a plugin, called World Border, and set the radius so that the edge lands right on the bedrock barrier. No one can leave, we will be effectively trapped.
Unlike the original, we will be taking many screenshots and may even record our progress -- And won't 'lose' them. We don't yet know how many will be recording, but we're hoping for at least two or three separate viewpoints.
Rules:
The rules of the server are very simple and basic, most of which are designed solely for the protection of the sensibilities of the younger members and their parents, as well as deterrence of any illegal activities. Any breaking of the rules will result in an immediate and permanent ban from the project and all other Ava servers.
Sexual comments or jokes are to be kept between those members who are 17+ (REGARDLESS of the age of consent in your country.)
Regardless of age; cyber-sex, sexting, or Minecraft "dating," will not be tolerated on the server, even via private messages.
No heavy swearing - That being said, refrain from attempting to censor your swears Doing so does not make it less vulgar. If you're going to swear, be an adult about it.
No unfair mods (Anything that gives you an unrealistic advantage - X-ray, flight, anti-pvp auras, full-bright, etc ... Mods such as inventory tweaks, too many items, and not enough items, and others are allowed)
No spamming (Of any kind)
No constant PVP or spawn killing
No racism, homophobia, or bible thumping (Literally thumping people with bibles is perfectly acceptable)
---- Be aware; greiffing, raiding, and PVP are not against the rules, on the project map, so players are responsible for their own defense and offense, when faced with an enemy. ----
Our map contains: Every game-changing biome, selected from a natural world and meshed together with World Edit:
Mushroom Island, for mycelium
Ice Spikes, for packed ice
Savanna, for Acacia trees
Sunflower Plains / Flower Forest, for dyes
Swamp, for lily pads and pumpkins
Forests, for birch trees
Roofed Forest, for dark oak trees
Mesa, for hardened clay and red sand
Desert, for sand and cacti
Ocean, for squid
Taiga, for spruce trees
Jungle, for cocoa, melons, and jungle trees
Nether, for nether blocks and items
Most structures, from specifically selected areas:
Abandoned mine shafts
Dungeons
Village
Nether fortress
How to get involved:
We are looking for a maximum of 32 people --The server will not be whitelisted, so anyone is able to join and chat with us -- There is a main world that is vanilla anyone is able to play on, but the experiment map will only be able to be accessed through me. -- In order to be in the experiment, you will need to at least have Skype, so that you can be added to the group conversation where we will be coordinating our play times.
The server is up and running at AvaVarldar.ddns.net:25566
(You will need the port, otherwise you'll be connected to our modded server)
Anyone interested in joining the team can leave a post here or send me a message on Skype (Skynet-Kytten), with the following information:

Our vanilla 1.7.10 server is currently decommissioned, however the other two are running smoothly!

It is indeed Sydney class .... It's #NCC-2010
I think a Narada would be pretty difficult to build, especially since Klingon ships generally don't have much screen time.
