Bring It, 'Cause Minecraft Capture the Record 4 is ON, Baby!


These things start so simply-a tweet from stahscream asking who wanted to play another Capture the Record (or CTR), with SudoRossy and I chiming in. As much as Minecraft is self-directed, I could use a little purposeful, goal-oriented play once in awhile. A few hours later, our meeting of the minds became:

Capture The Record 4

..and we were off. Here are the details we have so far:

Date:        Saturday, October 1st, 2011
Time:       TBA
Version:   1.7.3

Voice chat capability is MANDATORY! At this point we will probably be using Mumble. Details will be provided via email.

As noted above, we will be playing Minecraft version 1.7.3. If players need a fresh .jar file, a Mediafire link will be provided in a follow-up email. (Thanks to Deaboy for the .jar!)

The server is whitelisted, and the IP will be given out the day of the event via email.


We have discussed some additional things, and all additional information will be sent out via email at a later date. We are planning on Livestreaming, and are looking for someone interested/capable of doing so.

There are a few slots still open on the waiting list, so if you wish to play, please leave a comment here with your Twitter name, Minecraft IGN and email address. If you've already heard from me, I've already got you on the list.

Note: Excessive pestering (unless highly creative) will not get you a place on the teams, nor will bribery (I like champagne, cheesecake, and long walks on the beach, btw), so forget about trying. :D

  5. I've got you, Bo. Will be emailing the time after we decide tonight. Rossy's hosting, and he's in the UK, so we're trying to balance the time.

  22. As of now, the waiting list is closed-we've got twice as many people on the waiting list as we have slots open (and the open slots are full, btw). Thanks for all the interest, and everyone above this post has been added to the waiting list. If you get called up, you will be contacted via email, if not, good luck for next time!
