Quick hint on harvesting reeds: If you have a 3 block high set of reeds, punch the middle one and it will remove the middle and top parts for you to pick up and leave the bottom part. This way you don't have to harvest them all, then go around replanting.
I'm aware. The problem is that beta fucking sucks. Memory allocation and chunk-loading are shitty-ass-shit. hM0d hasn't been updated yet, so all our plugins don't work. That also means we can't use the wrapper anymore, and Notch's server shell is ass, slowing down gradually and getting worse and worse each hour. The MC forums are abuzz with how there's been a marked frame rate decrease. Ugh. Ugh.
I have to leave for work (again) in 20 minutes, and I think the server will stay down for the rest of the night. I'm not going to have it up without a) our whitelist keeping griefers out (and there are a lot who try every day to log in), and b) me around to restart it as necessary.
On the plus side, there's a rumor that pigmen villages are now a super-rare occurrence.
Don't kill yourself over it. The beta update is pretty godawful. Even on single player mode, I'm getting the 4-step-chug. Mind you this is on my new i5 quad core with 4 gb ram and a GForce 460 xtlmnop or whatever it is in there, so chug on a game like Minecraft is absolutely a sign of bad coding.
My update stopped at 51%, but apparently that was a sign from the gods.
Still, I was hoping to play because I haven't found another server that was even tolerable.
There are no other tolerable servers. Side note, if the sky castle is gone, I'mma be a sad panda.
No, no, no. There is no effect to the map at all. What's there is there. It's loading ass-shit slow, that's all. And the beta update fucked the server wrapper mod over (no ETA on an update). That means if we wanted to play we could -- but with Notch's cock-sucking server software and no cool add-ons that we all take for granted (memory management included).
Now, Notch has already released a patch to the update. He's saying there will undoubtedly be more in the next few days.
As for your update error, Josh, go to Start>Run>Type %appdata%>Backup any save files you may have, then delete the .minecraft folder. Restart Minecraft. It will correct itself.
Update: hey0 is planning to update the server wrapper software by Friday. You can check its progress here.

My update timed out or failed or something, then it worked perfectly the next time. Thanks, though!
Also, sorry to hear about the assnuggetry of the beta update's effect on the server software.
You understand that it's not the conjoining of the two words that's the problem. It's the use of the word "fagot." Unless you're a British dude talking about a cigarette, you leave that one alone. I'm down with swearsies until they turn into bigotry.

Oh, yeah, I understand that. Again, really sorry for having used it. It's never in my head as the derogatory term, just as a common swear. Probably not any better, but I felt the need to explain myself.

Also, yesterday's snowball fight is today's egg fight. Be prepared.
