LBD is not my preferred system. No xp, no xp gates, all gating done by RNG, materials requirements and a more complex recipe system (Who uses a forge to make bricks? That's a kiln) is. But if we have to have a progression system, LBD + RNG is certainly my preference. Diminishing returns...

Three months to respond to a post. That's some pretty nifty work there. I stand by my post. What has changed in that time though is the data is now showing that there are real problems. I find it hard to imagine that TFP is not concerned... but then again, I am not a mind reader. :)

I check all available data daily, and i must say that you are correct... in saying people interpret what they want to see. Or they use simplified graphs or cherry picked data to push their agenda. If you take into account number of units sold and skew the data accordingly, I am not convinced...

Simple dungeon generation and Server Management integration. I have been having a look at random dungeon generation and am investigating the potential of putting together a concept demo system. The basic concept is simple and is not original. Every prefab module has info linked to it, most...

Yep, they are certainly onto your subduction.

I actually agree completely. If I have the ammo and my base is holding up, I multi horde whenever I can. Let's just say my OP was a bit... backhanded :)

I had been thinking of things like the zombie rack, the zombie cross of crucifixion, the zombie electric chair, the zombie iron maiden and such like... but then I thought don't be silly... people will think that you're a real psycho sicko... ...err, I sorta blew that didn't I?

Wow, I'll have to try plates again. You would be close to invulnerable. When I tried them, rather than do a new build, I replaced the half blocks one at a time with plates. Was going great until the last column when the horizontal bars at the top of the fort started falling off. Replaced...

I can confirm that the above design is stable when built with half block supports, but is unstable with 2 brick wide brick plate supports. Zombies will still fall onto the half block supports but most will then either fall or jump off. Keeping the half block supports clear is a relatively easy...

True, exploits and cheats only really matter in MP.

It allows you to level up much much faster than is intended, so it is an exploit as much as any other mechanism that unintentionally allows you to accelerate your xp gain. Maybe someone from TFP could opinionate themselves on whether it is or isn't.

Eating lots of prunes helps apparently :)

Duping the Blood Moon Horde. Once upon a time there was a non-competitive exploit where if you logged off before 22:00 on BM night and then logged in after 22:00 you got no BM horde. Many people viewed this as an exploit. Now if the BM horde ends and you logoff and relog, it starts anew. I...

I started out as the Earl of Buchan in Scotland,... Scotland no longer exists but I am the King of a united Ireland with territory in what used to be Wales and the Scottish lowlands.... it's awesome.

That is an excellent suggestion. I don't know if it is possible, would be awesome if it is. Will try that in the near future, probably not for a day or two though. Feel completely free to beat me to it. :)
