Free access iron farm - 27 cells

(1/3) > >>

frobalt:
So, I've built myself an iron farm and am giving access away. All you have to do is go to /home frobalt ironfarm.

However, there is a slight catch: The collection area has a system of hoppers that filters the drops into 4 double chests. They distribute them evenly among the chests. I am only giving away access to 1 of these 4 chests, and ofc, you'll be competing with others for the contents of the chest.

This is only a trial run for now. If it turns out it causes too much hassle due to people getting annoyed that others are getting the drops before they can, I will remove access for everyone.

Since the hopper system distributes loot fairly evenly, the rate should be quite good, as it is a fully functioning 27 cell system, but as a bonus the way I've set it up means that if any chest and the hopper it is connected to fills up, other chests will receive more drops. This ensures that a chest filling up doesn't result in lost drops. So if all 3 of the other chests fill up before I can empty them, all the drops will go towards the public access chest.

I can't stress this enough: I am giving this access free to anyone that wants to use it, so the loot goes to whoever manages to get it first. Hopefully this will be done in a civil manner, as I don't want to remove access to it.

Also, I want to note that I will not be currently selling access to the other chests. It's possible I might change this in future though if I can figure out a way to do it.

Edit: P.S. I cannot guarantee that this chest will have a good drop rate, but since access is being given for free, it is bound to be a bonus - My main intention for this is for people that need iron as a material rather than those that want to use it to gain money.

Edit: 22/07/13 - 3rd chest has been opened up for public use.
