I'll be logging in tonight for sure :)
You can still connect to the multiplayer server, I might just have to disable namechecking.
*Edit1: Definitely can't login right now with namechecking enabled.
*Edit2: Nope, still can't connect after setting verify-names=false. :(
*Edit3: I can connect if I use online-mode=false, but it logs you in as "Player", and you can't do anything. Seems we are SOL until Notch's host is back up and running.
*Edit4: Seems to be back up and running.
My first fun experience with multiplayer:
1. Try to login and the game is down.
2. Wait 3 hours.
3. Login and connect to server.
4. Try to dig in sand at spawn point but it doesn't work.
5. Successfully dig a few blocks away from spawn point.
6. Run towards large tower someone else built.
7. Find out night is coming already.
8. See James log in and then logout about 15 seconds later.
9. Cover myself with dirt in a 2x1x2 space to wait out the night.
10. Get disconnected from server about 1 minute later.
:p
@James: that was me. :)
Tried joining, but couldn't dig into anything. Logged out and closed Minecraft, but when I tried to start up the program again I couldn't log in at all and the only option I had was to play offline. Guess Minecraft.net is down again.
I finally got in. :)

Taggart6 has the build plans, but ran off with them lol.
sorry had to shower!
Basic idea is a 21 by 21 dig site with a center column a single set of stairs along the wall making its way down to the bottom. I'll draw something up and post it later!
Edit: Forgot to add that we'll need torches to place along the wall. I figure we'll do alternating rows. I'll draft soething up and post it to show you what I mean.
Got disconnected for some reason a minute ago, and figured it's time for sleep so I didn't get back on.
Made a deep *** staircase with a branch mine at the bottom; was started before Taggart's plan was in place, so I went ahead and finished it up. If anybody heads down there, follow the basic layout; each new tunnel has three blocks in between it. It's the best way to find ore, already got 8 diamonds amongst a lot of iron, gold, and coal. The odds of something showing up only in that middle row are pretty small, so the spacing of three lets you grab basically everything down there.
Also started a little farm in the pond, though I've never farmed before.
Why. why why why did I have to give this game a try. I don't know why but its a frikkin blast! Might buy it if you guys are all still playing.
So ultra hole is a go....got the first 5 levels dug. My next goal is to cover the top in glass.
Lucky for you we just started multiplayer tonight. :D
