I don't store cobble in the collective storage since it wasn't
neccesary to, but I have at least 6+ large chests full of cobble
(some in the warehouse, some in the mines, and some scattered
elsewhere), so I'm not even close to a shortage of cobble.
I can easily spare a large chest or two, or three to put into
collective storage.
Seriously though, how can people be low on cobble? Not that hard
to create a quarry.
"maybe we should have monthly quarry digs from now on."
Maybe not monthly, but yeah having quarry digs would be a great
idea. Theres several around, Kipz has his massive quarry, Narus
cafe/station thing still needs to be quarried out, and I have my
quarry.
Mine could be a bit problematic though because theres some big
caverns down there, so better wear feather falling boots. Lava
shouldn't be an issue.

I checked and Spawntown still has 3 large chests of cobble plus
a bit more. Still very disappointing, though.
We should probably increase the role of collective storages in
the future.
Also, if you want to dig simply for the cobble, strip mining
sounds like a much better idea to me. Gives you lots of cobble
plus all the goodies.

Well, I have been thinking of expanding the strip mine I already
have, but not sure infrastructure wise.
The hopper carts and stuff in 1.5 (still hoping they'll put in
some kind of high speed rail thing) will definetly help with the
mining infrastructure.

Pros
Strip Mining: Ores, sometimes hit caves, ravines, etc. Lava
pools too.
Quarrying: Large building areas. Get's sand and sandstone
depending on where you are.

So, strip mining would be for ores, quarrying would be for
development and sand/sandstone.
Btw when i just started Blacraft I called quarry's "cory".

But the sand and sandstone is separate from the stone unlike
ores, if you're doing it for the sand and sandstone you might as
well just quarry without going below the sandstone layer.

There really is no point quarrying for stone if you are going
for sand and sandstone. Yes, cobblestone is a byproduct of a
sandstone quarry if you do it the quick and cheaty way.
Nonetheless, in the amount of time it takes to get a few stacks
of sandstone, you'd likely get 10-30 diamonds and a chest of
cobblestone branch mining.

wait what it's possible for spawntown to run low on cobble of
all things? :o

Apparently, I haven't been active for months after all, but yes,
someone else must be sitting with quite a pile of cobble. Or
related things.

most of that was mined from the desertopia quarry thing, and i
was going to use it for building something but it seems not
anymore so yeah i guess i'll make it public

There was a rush of taking cobblestone from spawntown before it
ran out. I think almost everyone did it to some extent, I took 3
small chests worth to use on roads back in early December, all
of the excess cobble that I had from then has since been taken
from my public storage.
