WELCOME Hello ladies and gentlemen and welcome to the fourteenth edition of the ECC blog! *Bows to applause* Well now that we've survived the unlucky thirteen we've got some brand new things to talk about (but I'll get more into that further along). I have to admit I'm really excited for just wandering around the new 'Rising' is search of all the new awesome biomes and along with that I'm looking forward to partaking in plenty of mining world exploration and maybe I'll make a few biome specific homes in my town... So many different possibilities, so little time. Now that I've done my little intro, I'm happy to give you all the fourteenth edition of the ECC blog! Thanks for everything, Anvildash FEATURE BUILD This really cool build was brought to my attention by the creator Tdogg120 and it is a replica of the White House. As I'm not an American citizen I feel that I wouldn't give a truly accurate evaluation of this impressive build, but I'll try to the best of my abilities to give it the respect it deserves. I think that this build is really quite impressive in relation the architectural accuracy. Overall this build embodies the power and importance of the real life structure it represents. I sat down with tdogg to discuss his build, here's what was said: RISING SPAWN TOWN AUCTIONS I assume you are all now well acquainted with the concept of the new mainworld that will be added soon (The Rising) and some of you may know that it will be having it's own spawn. With this new spawn there comes the very interesting concept of new spawn towns. From the information I have been able to gather the towns the are near the new spawn (touching the 200x200 area) will be being auctioned off to the highest bidder some time in the near future! I'm not really sure how much the actual ownership of these towns will change as these towns will be going for quite high prices, but I'm really looking forward to how it all turns out! AETHER RESET As I write this the aether is being reset for the very first time in ECC history and I'm sure you are all excited, as I am, to see all the new creations that will rise from this brand new land. At this time I do not have fly nor aether access, but I may look into getting them just to explore the aether, build awesome stuff, and maybe feature some of the epic builds that people have created there. Leave your comments and thoughts in the comments below on how you feel about the new aether world.

I'm not excited for the 1.7.2 update at all. prices are gonna change, and the items that are popular now are gonna be in the dust with the new trees, glass panes, etc.
You should see xpurexcorex's white house its way better. Go to /warp america and look around + we built the twin towers.

First and foremost I am looking to be able to run 2 resouce packs at the same time. I really like ECC pack and that V-Wiz did but I also miss the realisim of LIFE-HD. To have both would be amazing. I really would like to see new flowers to put in flower pots for indoor decor. Also stained glass will be awesome for the creative people out there. I can't wait to see what the most talent of the server can do with it.
