WOW! Thanks to the way real life can get in the way, I haven't really visited the forum in the last few months, and I come back to find that BTW has apparently become 'BTW 2: Hardercore Edition'. I'm gonna have to dig out the instructions on how to mod Minecraft again. Also need to stock up on tissu...

Pfft. That's the sound of a bee crashing into the microphone...

It must be good.

FC is enjoying it so much, he hasn't even been able to find time to post his thoughts on it :p

That's clearly the before and after shots of me getting a haircut.

As for arts and crafts, I once redecorated my bedroom in a lovely shade of beige. With paint and brushes and everything. That does count as art, right? Right?

I suppose I'd be considered optimistic for thinking that such a change, if it were added, might mean them actually reducing inventory space as some kind of balance to all the 'instant win button' features that usually get added to the game?

So, totally unlike the public servers on any other game then?

Yhetti wrote: Now if you're talking about something else...shhhhhh

Yeah, it's something else.

Now, having got my gear back pretty quick thanks to a very generous HCS and a well stocked base, I need to try and do some experiments to see if FC has changed what I think he has based on what happened to me.

-Changed a little something something about Pigmen behavior that is absolutely nothing to worry about. I do believe I just ran into this whilst building myself a road through the nether so I could take advantage of all the new villager goodness. Needless to say, it hurt. A lot. Now I just need to g...

I was going to write a wall o' text about how this thread has struck a chord with me, but I couldn't find the right words to express things. Suffice to say that many of the experiences posted here are also true for me, and for those of you that have found your path after leaving (escaping?) the educ...

Minecraft 1.7 is officially out! Lets all go cry in a corner together :'(

I just wandered into this thread to say this, but you've already done it, so we can all get on with wondering what'll be fubar by the time 1.8 rolls around...

Ok... My install must be borked somehow. Just tested it again and the 4.891 recipe doesn't work but the vanilla one does...

Tried to make an enchanting table using the new recipe earlier today. It appears that the old recipe is still in effect rather than the new one from 4.891.

Edit:- Moved to the correct subforum, because I'm an idiot...

Asparagus only really becomes a thing when you're trying to launch larger payloads that might otherwise have to be launched on separate rockets and then assembled in space. It thus saves you all the trouble of doing so (docking is difficult), and of designing payloads that are capable of it. Where'...

FlowerChild wrote: Both are carrying identical payloads, and both effectively do the same job.

I have to ask, considering that at the moment the game is just a huge sandbox, why would you want to build a rocket like the first one when the second one just looks so much cooler?

That kinda puts my feeble attempts to even get into orbit without some kind of crash minor technical fault occuring into perspective. Have you done the in game tutorials? I'm always surprised when I hear about people that can't reach orbit, as while I've certainly experienced the occasional screw-u...

Here are the kinds of things other people do that are far more brilliant than I.

On a note since I had some free time before work as its kinda related to his piss poor programing, I decided to update for giggles so me and the girlfriend could give 1.6 vanilla lan a go so she could see the poor implementation of horses. vMC loaded just fine so I decided since I had the time to i...

I oppose unless FC will teach me his secret to deliberately not dying or becoming ill.

-Changed wood doors, trapdoors, and fence gates to no longer respond to a redstone signal. I have to say, this simple little change is causing me much merriment at the minute.
