Axes not effective on grates

Stone axes are not effective on grates when i try to chop it. It only acts as if I am punching it.
The only recent thing in the changelog about axes is about grass and wheat and should not affect grates.
I also have the deco addon and mcpacher installed.

Do coupons stack with the sale price? I've still got two 25% off ones if they do.

Looking at all the one word comments that say how OP the farm is when the farm will be nearly impossible to build in a survival world and only gives you fish and a retextured glowstone block.

Re: Vanilla Minecraft News Discussion

They discourage breaking blocks and making shortcuts by adding a mining fatigue effect. Not sure if there is more good or bad in that decision. Definitely encourages beacons as you might need that to obtain the dungeon blocks easily in the long run (if only beacons actually made sense in vanilla.) ...

Re: Game Theory: A scientific explanation for creepers

I like how this also has an explanation why creepers and other hostile mobs only spawn relatively near the player. I'm not sure if anyone else caught onto that.

Game Theory: A scientific explanation for creepers


(Go to 1:42 to skip the intro)

I know game theory has been on this forum a couple times before and is actually where I first heard of the channel, but this connects so much with BTW (with the exception of nitre) that it needs it's own thread.

I had the same problem once where it crashed and said I didn't have enough memory then crashed againwhen I added more memory through mc patcher. It turned out I needed to downgrade my java but that was a while ago so I don't remember the right version.

Re: Came back to BTW with strategies

I almost always make my base on the border of a forest and plain biome. That way I can chop down trees near my base and also have a mob-free flat area on the other side. Also creepers can give you free dirt if you get away fast enough.
