Virtual private server
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_private_server

Throwing this out there... Bmwsu said in chat that Interserver is now actually using DigitalOcean, which has VPS instead of many different instances running on the same server which causes lag.
https://www.digitalocean.com/pricing/
Their pricing seems comparable to our current server if we look at the RAM, but I don't actually know how much bandwidth we're using or about the other things. It doesn't look like it has a Minecraft server control panel either but has a control panel that's more general for pretty much anything, so it might make it harder to manage the server.
I'd probably stick with the brick upgrade for a year and see how it goes.

Interesting ideas.

The first one I think should just end when either of the zones is taken over. When you've taken over the enemy zone they're attacking from, I don't think they should continue to attack the other zone from it. Also, on the map, if the two zones swap owners, it's likely they'd become detached from their fronts, and that'd trigger the mechanism saying you lose the zones detached from your front. I think it'd become a bit messy.
However, it's an interesting idea to let two zones try to take each other's flags instead of playing just the roles of attacker and defender. As it is now the attackers don't have much to lose, only the defenders, so that seems more fair. Maybe we should try and see how that works, timed like regular battles.

Progressive battles:
I don't think I'm completely sure about this, but I think that'd be better to have in another war region, having both flags and that would make stuff more complicated and I think the flag concept seems more intuitive and probably more fun.

I propose this attack today at 21:00 UTC or alternatively tomorrow, what do you think, Blotz?

I'd recommend freehand over drawing boxes, anyway, this area correct? You can say if you want to start voting to annex this unclaimed area marked in green.

With natural borders or borders exactly like that?
I'd suggest just claiming all of the unclaimed jungle that's left there, or at least let it be borders following the natural terrain

I think it looks nicest to include the land up to the river but I can vote for either, so you can propose whichever you prefer.

someone was building in ns today, not sure if they had permission

That's soccerboy13542, he has permission.

I'm probably going to get rid of Fykisel and claim some region near Alteus in the next few days.

What do you want to happen to Fykisel?

Moved Swamphold portal up to horse road level, made a nether horse road to it and an ice road.

Also finished (so far) the autosugarcanefarm in Kaktolake.
(Here I haven't covered the sides completely yet)

This is a thread for requesting problems to be solved (hence, the title), not for whining about deaths if you didn't lose anything, so I'll be remove those posts from here if more are posted.

The week has started of me reporting every glitch/lag death.
#1 (Glitch - replicable) so I had just fought a ghast and poorly because I can't deflect their fireballs due to lag. well I killed it only had 3 health. Came upon a corner where soul sand was on either side with a one block dip before lava. (Hope that made sense). I stepped on corner and got set on fire. I can upload a showcase as I was able to replicate the attack. I lost half of my stuff (ish)

Compensation (I don't really need it but)
Diamond Sword w/ sharp 4 loot 3 unbreak 3 fire 2
128 glass
64 quartz blocks
gold helmet w/ prot 3
iron pants w/ projectile prot 3 unbreak 3
27 cooked fish (maybe 26 or 28 idr exactly)

These have been refunded in a chest at (1049 , 65 , -2228).

Approved.

Depends on the situation, possibly. However I'd like not to be 100% surrounded by other players, but be able to have a strip of land connected to the wilderness so I can expand in a continuous fashion, just in some direction. Currently Novascotchara links Kaktoland to Swamphold.
I could give away a municipality of it or maybe a part of it to a new region.

Topic for the region Swamphold managed by me. People can post permission requests etc. here.

Jungelot has been annexed by Swamphold and is now a municipality within the region.

Topic for the region Epicland managed by me. People can post permission requests etc. here.

I've looked through old posts and found that stuffhappens seceded some Bohemian land back to the server, so I've drawn his borders like this.

If you want, you can have a new poll to annex the jungle between Asovel's approved land and the Guodesian borders.

Not banning him from landgrabbing, but I since he's banned I don't think he should claim areas that are currently empty.

This topic is for the region Ampluterra, currently inactive, originally established by Matty.

I request permission for these three projects affecting the lands of Ampluterra:

1 (yellow): Moving the rail line between Kaktoland and Ampluterra slightly so that it follows the UBSR rail coordinate laws and the route is shortened slightly, and moving the Ampluterra station slightly as well, possibly including the surface entrance where I'd like permission to build a small building.

2 (cyan): Extension of the 4m wide road from Kaktoland that now goes to the border. The plan is for it to roughly follow the cyan route and in the end, link to the old 2m wide road leading to Desertopia through Azecliffs, where it might be extended in a future project another time. Some of the old 2m wide road that would go closely along the wider road will be removed in the process.

3 (green): Permission to build a fort/gate structure embedded into the tunnel/border mountains, exact design and size isn't planned, but the top of the mountain will be preserved, the structure will just carve into the sides on both sides of the border and have an interior accessible through the tunnel.

Battle 11: The Blue Front (Lotzubutt, Thomas13542) attacked Zone 21, defended by Red Front (Blanoxium, Fiahstorm). Red Front successfully defended the zone.

If the universe were capitalist, it seems plausible that the physical laws should be written as inequations. But they tend to be equations. Clearly, this is evidence of the universe's communist bias. Checkmate, capitalists.

Question on the new (for me) diamond equipment listing in the collective storage document, are we supposed to count what's in inventory or worn as well?

No
