    Hello ECC and welcome to the very first edition of the ECC blog! *bows to applause*
    Now I'm sure that from the title of this you can tell that I have been faced with some issues in regards to mainly town/build submissions. I have received some town submissions however as I don't have access to a computer I can't upload screenshots to the forums (also I have no screenshots because once again I have no computer access). But as they say "the show must go on" and honestly this edition is really based on that saying. This edition will be quite rough around the edges but I promise you all that next weeks edition will be substantially higher in quality and content.
    Thank you,
    -Anvildash

    TOWN OF THE WEEK, BUILD OF THE WEEK, RANDOM TOWN OF THE WEEK

    canceled due to inability to post screenshots/access server

    ECC NEWS AND UPDATES

    As I have been away from the server for a while now this section will feature a few older subjects.

    -Announcement of Efficiency 7 tools added to star shop: Yes ladies and gentlemen! The moment has finally arrived for the star tools in the spawn star shop are actually worth trading for. But one question has remained on my mind ever since I was informed of this change; what will happen to the pumpkin axe market? Are pumpkin axes still considered to be eff 5, unb 3, etc... Or are pumpkin axes now only eff 7, unb 3, etc..? Leave a response below to give your opinion.

    -Massive farming changes: This in my opinion may be one of the biggest things I've seen happen on the forums for a while. I mean the discussion thread was/is blowing up with everyone discuss how things need to be changed/stay the same. Personally I think that nether warts should be worth the same or more than melons because you need fly to really farm them effectively and then you have to go back an replant all the stalks. Where as melons and pumpkins regenerate by themselves which saves time. My opinion isn't exactly valid in this argument though because I don't farm very often. Leave your opinions in the comments below.

    QUESTION OF THE WEEK

    Last week's question of the week was:
    We got some interesting responses from you all, but here are some that I found were the most interesting.

    Joseph01234 responded with:

    This week's question of the week is: If you were a zombie, who would you turn? Post interesting and creative responses in the comments below!

    [B]Thanks to everyone who participated in this week's blog![/B]​

    Note to readers: I'm not sure if the next blog edition will be out at the same time as this one next week depending on whether you found this simpler edition of the blog to be to your liking. Please tell me in the poll if this format was ok or if you would like to blog to be delayed a few days from the schedule for better content.​

    Please use this format when suggesting builds/towns to be featured:

    I can do better. I'd zombify One Direction because that's pretty much 5 Justin Biebers...

    Yes the original idea was by the first supermod Michaelwm, however the blog he created only lasted 15 days. I'm here trying to revive the blog and therefore this is the first edition of the new ECC blog.

    I'd threaten to turn anvildash, because my goal is to be in the "Interesting Response" in every single stinkin edition of the ECC Blog.

    The Pope, it'd be fun to see how the Catholic Church would deal with a zombie pope.

    Technically, you have to do both, One Direction are the horcruxes of Justin Bieber.
