Did not make any backups of my world. I guess I was so confident in my "precautions" and enjoying my personal narrative so much I didn't think about it 

I'll have to check out that hardmode toggle though. I'm not fond of cheating, but I put far too much effort and resources into my base to abandon it. I'd offer screenshots if I didn't have worms burrowing through and a small army of werewolves trying to break in 

In the grand scheme of things, planets are really fucking small. I don't think that's as bad as our messing up imperial/metric units and crashing a few million dollar probe.

I dunno. At least by crashing said multi-million dollar probe, we actually hit something

So, remember how I asked about how to keep the corruption and hallow away from my base, and make the base hardmode-proof? Well, I took your suggestions. Dug a couple of nice wide pits all the way down to hell on either side of the base. Used unchangeable blocks as a new "floor" so I wouldn't fall all the way down by accident. Rebuilt the outer wall of the base with a three-block-thick layer of dungeon brick. Added trapped entrances with plenty of pressure plates, dart traps, and wire.

Went down to the underworld, killed the WoF without undue difficulty thanks to all the buffs I brought with me. I Magic Mirror my way back up...

Corruption literally right outside my door. The new zone decided "fuck your hours of preparation" and spawned inside my perimeter. I had been back less than 10 seconds when one of the corrupt hardmode worms went tearing through my base, killing an NPC, and followed by wraiths. Werewolves are beating at my door and taking virtually no damage from the traps, and purification powder can never change it all in time. I have never hated this game before, but right now I sure do 

As long as I get a PM or something. The thread jumps like, five pages at a time sometimes and I'd probably miss a post telling us to jump in

Are we waitlist people gonna get PMs or something when it's our turn?

Eh, it's not even the whole flag. Just a little patriotic symbol

And like Karne said, this was primarily an American project anyway.

"Mere" 68 megatons? The most powerful nuclear device we ever detonated was 50 megatons, and the fireball from that explosion covered a four-kilometer radius. Unless the Enterprise was a good distance away from the explosion, the fact that it survived seems pretty damn impressive to me.

Explosion in space are way less powerfull. No shockwave, for example.

I didn't even mention the shockwave (though for the record, the shockwave from the 50 megaton bomb leveled a town over 55 kilometers away). The fireball itself was four kilometers in radius.
