Well Now...

Well well well... Houston, We have a problem.

 Yesterday my power went out, frying my decent server. I've brought it back up on a lesser box and i'm running it that way.. BUT it looks like something is wrong in my networking config and I appear too be unable too play on it and have others too.. it seems too be closing the port if I'm on it from my home connection.. this is quite frustrating.

  In other news I also suffered a HDD crash in my comp while visiting family, which explains the long delay between posts, I apologize. Had a great Thanksgiving though!

  Hope everyone who reads this (anyone? *listens too the crickets...*) had a good time while I was gone.

I'm BACK...

...With a vengeance against Skelys.

Today (actually Yesterday) I built a decent mob trap that only requires 2 water sources and a lot of cobble.

ok, first thing in this design, make the spawn room 7x3x4 (length, width, hight) making sure too leave two alcoves for your water.

 Then by your door 1 block over cut out a 3 block deep are by the wall. Cut an opening where you want your collection area too be and your done.

 This seems too work fairly efficiently on SMP as shown, however it will need heavy adeptation for spiders (just get in there and kill them you lazy bums!).

I hope you enjoy this design, it's simple and elegant. there's only one small choke point behind the spawner where a mob might get stuck, but they don't stay back there very long!

This is a failed attempt too build one from scratch

And this is a working one that has a Skeleton Spawner.. found naturally
