What could be better than Bitcoin for bringing order and organization to the lawless free-for-all that is Minecraft?

Minecraft: mc.coin-life.comThe server uses concepts like Tolls, Deathmatches, Private Land, and Chest-based shops, using native in-game Bitcoin currency. This is a completely custom-written plugin that tightly integrates bitcoin throughout the game!
The first few users get some
FREE COINS to get started!
The game initially has an almost-empty map. Players will need to build their own shops and other services to get the game going. I have placed a small hotel/supply shop near the spawn point.
Lots get more expensive farther from the spawn area, so there is an early-adopter advantage.
Examples of what you can do:
- Play a Deathmatch with someone! You play for bitcoins, and the last one standing takes them all.
- Build hotels at strategic locations that collect tolls when people need a place to sleep.
- Build your own deathmatch arena. Build up walls on restricted perimeter lots, and let people combat each other in the middle. Collect a toll when combatants enter the starting lobby.
- Build bridges over large canyons or waterways that collect tolls when used.
- Give people a tip when they build a nice structure that you like.
- Set up a market so that you can sell items you obtain.
- Build houses or other improvements on lots, and then sell them for an increased price. You can even hire people to build the improvements for you!
- Buy lots, and set up a special toll entryway that lets people mine your subterranean land if they pay a toll. You can set up the lot permissions so that anybody can mine below a certain altitude.
- Give your friends permission to mine/build on your land.
More details about concepts (detailed instructions are at
http://www.coin-life.com/ ):
- The world is divided into a grid of lots. Each lot is a 10x10 block area of land that you can buy and sell for bitcoins.
- Each 10x10 lot group is called a cluster, and the perimeter of each cluster is a public road that is always usable by any player.
- A permission system allows you to let others build/mine on your lots. You can allow mining/building for specific players or all players, and control access by level (altitude).
- You can enter into a deathmatch anywhere, anytime, for bitcoins! Each participant must start on the same lot, and contribute the same amount of bitcoins. The winner of the deathmatch takes all bitcoins entered!
- Put a special sign on on your land to require people to pay a toll in bitcoins when they pass through! Every time someone passes through your toll block, they pay you in bitcoins. If they do not have sufficient funds, they cannot pass.
