Randall, I have not been on this server very long but I can see the economy is very badly damaged diamonds are so easily available that they are about to me almost worth nothing if people keep charging 100s of diamonds for fairly simple tasks and the cost for some blocks which should be everywhere as glowstone can be seen everywhere but it is still at 5000 mt for a stack where diamond is only 1280(of an average of 20 mt per block). onto the issue about the ics I believe they will do great good as being able to pay gold blocks and other items to produce a redstone current, being able make gambling machines, the ability to get access to spawners as simply as throwing a block into a water stream or placing a gold block under a system with the block detector and a piston, it will produces more opportunity for minetown creating more fun.
