I believe it's an easter egg in reference to For balance reasons I can't really see too much else popping up really.

It may be he just wants incentive to produce the stone halfslab covered landscape utopia we all wish for, with our cows in iron bar cages and the only surviving greenery produced through superior human engineering.

I went with a hoe initially, if only to prevent the worst nightmare of every player from ever taking place. Getting the hoe first for me is always a must, that way I can always have one bastion in the world were I can count on food existing somewhere as a farm. After the first base though I think it...

This may be a little out of date, but do you think this might qualify as a part of the genre?
I have some fond memories of having tried it once at a friend's place.

Literature's never been hurting for good inspiration either :)

Happy New Year from the depths of my volcano.

Considering the upcoming changes to doors, trapdoors, levers, and buttons in version 1.4 that make them no longer trigger when left clicked could you apply the same change to the hand crank from BTW? This way removing and replacing the crank for better positioning won't waste your hunger bar or prov...

After reading everything in here, it may be worth activating this on my current world that I've been working on. Don't even have my windmill yet since I've been busy lately, so this could fit in without any major alterations destroying my world.

Honestly? the only plans I have for the vMC 'anvil' are its use as a drop weapon for 6 hearts of damage.

Sounds like some quality entertainment

I expect we won't be seeing much of you around here for a while Mr_Hosed, the sheer rarity is what makes actually finding a mushroom biome such an accomplishment. What's the thrill of discovery in tossing a few dozen "Shroom-eyes" around until you get there? It's like having a compass that...

However, he did prevent F3 from providing the answers to Life, the Universe, and Everything. To my old world: so long and thanks for all the fish.

Who's to say they wouldn't run -towards- you?

I've never bothered searching for slime chunks, preferring to save waterwheels till later when I have glue. You already need a small cow farm to reach saws anyway.

that would either require a careful mapping of the overworld in relation to the nether in size, resulting in a nether far far smaller than the overworld, or could lead to floating portals outside the boundary of the main world, which would give an easy-to-defend floating base outside the limits of t...

the main problem with any sort of border is that it could be bypassed through the use of the Nether Portal Network. Hop in, run to the nether, go a few hundred paces out, and poof.

Well, if speculation from the Canvas thread a while back is still relevant... If the red lines between the Nether and Overworld/End represent the travel of souls, redstone is infused with the souls of the nether, and souls are being drawn to The End by the Enderdragon, then clearly a similar force o...

Also, I was only just starting to make use of coordinates in my current world, so I'm glad for the changes to BTW happening now to keep me away from that slippery slippery slope.

Of course, even though F3 is being removed modified, you can always count your coordinates the hard way ;D
One step... two step...

Well, a fatty diet causes floating in reality, but I very much doubt FC would waste his time making different Dung for each food source given to wolves just to changes their buoyancy.

Feeling glad that I haven't started making use of any filtration systems yet. Should make for some interesting sorting. Also, good to see the changes made for addons, I can see a lot of ways people could make use of this.

Saw this and had to post. I finished reading Lord of the Flies in English class today, and the state of the Minecraft community relates all to well to that book. I only hope that minecraft doesn't end in the same way that book did. I rather enjoyed that book, makes for a fun look at the dark side o...

I look forwards to the changes to villager behavior, as actual housing feels much more in the spirit of things than massive door-complexes.

Because of BTW, the English language will never be safe again.

Does it count if it's things everyone should know by now?
Regardless, I think this thread is a bit Off Topic
