Title: [Auction] 18 Cell Iron Golem Farm
Post by: tiggy26668 on February 12, 2013, 06:20:36 pm
Item: Iron Golem Farm with 18 cells
Starting Price: 500k
Buyout Price: 1.5mil
Bid Increment: 5k
Auction Ends: Feb 19, 2013 8:00pm EST (GMT-5)

Current Bid: Chief149 500k

Yield: approx 1 stack of iron blocks per hour ($28800/hr)

Has a built in crusher and security system to keep people from abusing the farm.

Note: i'm only selling this one because i have a new 27 cell design (can be seen adjacent to this one) and have no further use for it.

if you think it's expensive well.... it costs a finite number, and u can make infinite money, any finite number divided by an infinite number is as near to nothing as makes no odds, so in all reality you're paying 0.00% of what it's worth....

Happy Bidding!  ;D

A little offtopic but I dont think ur other design will work. The cells are too close.


MY 300th POST!

I counted 50 blocks between each one?
I thought the min. was 60 but you know better.

(I'm not being sarcastic or being a douchebag) Can you please tell me some numbers for village mechanics?

Of course I will need to see for myself to see if the farm truely provides what you claim.

It just so happens you built this thing not too far from my place (with the lava filled walls).

I'll put down 500K on it, but only if I can test it first and only if the yield is proven to be what you claim.
I'll of course pay you for the iron blocks or give you the iron blocks if the yields are not what you claimed and/or I decide to not buy it.

i don't really take offense...

there's 72 blocks between each farm, the trick is that only the centers matter and the hard part is figuring out what exactly counts as the "center" of the village, in my case they're 20x20 squares so it's the 4 center blocks.

as long as those 4 center blocks aren't within 32 blocks of another village i'm good.

so really from either side i have an extra 6 blocks before any problems happen.

Of course I will need to see for myself to see if the farm truely provides what you claim.

i'm sure we can work something out, i'm pretty confident in the farm to produce at least that much.

Can a golem farm be underground?

there has to be some kinda sky in the general vicinity, but yea they can. basically it comes down to the definition of a house which is very vague... but basically u need a door, a roof, and less space on one side of the door than the other.

it's not so much that u need sky as having sky means that there's a lot larger area outside than inside, as opposed to being in a closed off cave where there's limited space and there could potentially b more room inside the houses than outside and ur village changes size/shape to the cave....

if u have a large enough cavern it shouldn't b a problem...

if however ur hollowing out the ground into the shape of a village with little/no space around it then it'll cause issues

I'm officially placing 500K on this. I still expect to get a test run out of this farm.

My terms are, I want to test this farm for 3 hours. I will then get the average true yield as well as the number of ticks the server is producing (low ticks = lower yield than normal, but I would be happy with say half the yield you claim when there's only 12 to 15 ticks for example). Tiggy I will give you the full yield, or I will pay you the money earned from the yield, so I am not getting free use of your farm. If I like the number of ingots/blocks I got in that 3 hours then my bid will stay. Revoked if otherwise.

That's all fine and dandy, but ivy2112 is currently wining with 510k, ur welcome to outbid him if you like.

That's what his original post said when I quoted it.

It appears your doors are locked. Would I perhaps be able to get temp access to test? Like a day or so?

I don't think it's spitting out 9 stacks of ingots per hour (1 stack of iron blocks per hour) like you said. I've been riding around the track infrastructure for 10 minute intervals (getting iron from the golems between each interval) and I get around 30 per ten minutes. The current rates I have gotten are somewhere between 180 and 200 ingots per hour.

Sorry to double post. The purpose is so tiggy will notice that I posted to his thread here.

The rates aren't quite 1 stack of iron blocks / hour for me so far, but maybe I just need to get better timing still. Anyways unless anyone else wants to outbid me, 500K.

why? because instead of 2 days to make your money back it'll take 4? u still make infinite money and have an infinite supply of iron....

Not to mention the thing is protected (isn't it?)

Anyways, may 500K bid stays. I'll earn it back, and I don't think iron farms will get out of hand to the point where iron will have to be removed due to too large of farms like the issue with melons and pumpkins being as the mechanics are totally different.
