Hello fellow HT players. 'Tis I, GingaPower2k, and today I am opening another giveaway thread! The winner of the Elytra contest was HillMiner, so now it's time for a Dragon Head!

  This giveaway will work the same was as the Elytra giveaway did. Simply put your name into this thread, which will open for 1 day. After 1 day has passed, I will use a random name generator to choose a name, which will decide the winner.

  Rules are as follows
  -Do NOT place your name more than once in this thread.
  - Do NOT simply ask for a Dragon Head.
  -No putting in other players names.
  Any player who breaks these rules will have their name removed from the contest during the drawing.

Like the previous giveaway, if you already own a Dragon Head and/or Elytra, you cannot participate in this contest. This is to keep things fair for players without such items.

EDIT: The winner of the Dragon Head was _Maddie! Congratulations, _Maddie!
That's all I have for this thread. Good luck to all of you!

In this forum game, you make an abbreviation and the next person decides what it stands for. Try to keep the words 4-8 letters long.
Example:
Person 1: Saiyaka
Person 2: So All Idiots Yell About Keeping apples
                  Blaze
Person 3: Bob lives around zombie ears

The server's reset and the economy has a chance to start over and be a good, working part of Hometown now. This means cobblestone might actually be worth more than throwing into a pit of lava and selling items for more than 1$ isn't a rip off.  Diamonds, a major sales item, are said to be valued at 100$.  Although some of the 1.8 rock blocks and a few other building items are bought at the server's /Warp Shop we have yet to see prices firmly set for anything else.  Economy is still up in the air and the only items which have fixed minimum prices are those few seen in the Shop.  So again, Diamonds are said to be worth 100$ each, yet players are selling them at lower.  Under half the price with some and others going yet lower.  There is no "value" to diamonds but for what they can be sold for and if it's left up to the players (like the old system did) we'll see the same thing happen. Devaluing of the economy. 
I am suggesting that diamonds be added to the items which /Warp Shop buys and somewhat soon. Setting the minimum price there means if other players want to sell a diamond for 40$ each they'll be taking a loss and have incentive to raise the price.  Those selling can gain more money if the lowest price is higher than what is being used now.  Underselling to this extent will be greatly reduced and help the players and the economy. If we're going to have an economy on Hometown then ought we make it a good one?  
Should there be a reason against doing this that has prevented them being added already, please do explain.  As it is now, all that seems to be occurring is diamonds going lower and lower.  There are only benefits to be seen from adding them to shop which I can think of.


The main reason to this post is that I want to know why they are not in shop already.  It seems a simple and obvious control to a main item in the economy, yet have not been added.  I'd like to know if there is a reason to this that I cannot see.

Server you were banned on (SMP): smp.hometownmc.com

Minecraft name: Abrams1188

Reason for your ban: Unknown (Not written)

Who banned you: Unknown (Was not online when I got banned)

Why should you be unbanned: I doubt I did anything bad enough to deserve a ban, I did insult a guy who insulted me back and I got muted by admin, which was already a fair punishment in my opinion.

Why do you want to come back: This is the best server ever, thank you for reading.

so there hasnt been much of forum games activity lately, which in my opinion, is the butter of the bread on the forums. So i came up with an idea. 

In this game, you eill make a disease with a name and symptoms.   For example: the cheesease: esting anything with cheese will cause your legs to drop. (Yeah that was prettyshitty idea, but you can come up with better.)

This is just a game prototype, and i hope itll be fun.

Hello fellow HT players. 'Tis I, GingaPower2k, and I have come to begin the first Elytra giveaway! This giveaway is the first giveaway of 5, Having 4 giveaways handing out individually either the Dragon Head or Elytra, followed by a big giveaway handing out both.

   The first giveaway is a simple one. Simply post your in-game username into this thread, which will be open for a single day. After the day  is up, I'll take all the names and choose a random name generator to cycle through the names and choose one. The name chosen will receive an Elytra!
 
   Rules about the giveaway are posted:
   - Do not place your name twice on this thread, or your name will be removed completely.
   - Any player who simply asks for an Elytra with this thread will have their named removed.
   - There will be no putting another players name in if they cannot be online.


   As I said in the announcement of the giveaway, any player who currently owns an Elytra and/or a Dragon Head cannot participate in this contest. The winner of this will be mailed on the server and a message will be sent to their Forums account. The winner will be announced on server chat as well.

EDIT: The winner of this contest was HillMiner! Congratulations, HillMiner!
  That's all I have for this thread. Good luck to all of you!

So I've been thinking about making a few random shops, and this was one of my ideas.  I wanted to make a shop that utilized my xp.  Most people don't  have a lot of xp, so I thought they could use mine, but for a price.  I would enchant, repair, etc items with my levels, as long as they gave me the item to enchant/repair, and whatever goes along with that.  For example, if they wanted me to repair their diamond pickaxe, I would need a few diamonds to do the job.  I would utilize /warp repair.  If they needed me to enchant an item, I would put the item in the table, then note what enchantments are available to me.  Then I'd let the customer choose.  I would supply lapiz, because I have plenty


This would just be a little shop idea, and I thought it would be useful.  Prices would vary between items, but every level i use would be $2.  The only exception would be if I was enchanting at level 30. the price would be $15 each level 30 enchant.  

This was just an idea, and more details will come along with it if most people like the idea.  Please lmk what you think...

When shops will be ready for use? It's pretty annoying to trade something without knowing the values.
