    I figured it was a good place to settle down

    Almost fell to my death because of one. It was a one block opening to a giant ravine, and was just walking along and almost walked into the one block opening.

    Funny how I walked past that mound of dirt like it was nothing and then proceeded to find an easier entrance to the same ravine maybe 15 blocks away

    Also built my house on top of it haha. It's good for stone and some other ore, but it's not a super great area for wood or food. I believe that the "main land" is only a minute walk or so away

    Same here!

    Does anyone know the uses for emeralds?

    EDIT: I guess all you can do with emeralds is to trade with villagers..

    Think I have like 25 leather and 25 or so steaks. You are looking in the wrong places! I have not gone too far from my house on the hilltop if you have found that yet. Not far from your place.


    There's a stupid amount of sheep walking around though.

    Found an abandoned mine shaft with two spider spawners and a zombie one pretty close together, thinking of making a massive grinder. Thoughts? You can get to it from the start of my house.

    Yeah, that's pretty annoying, but I'm pretty sure we'll all get used to it sooner or later

    Yeah, it's super annoying. It's all dependent on the direction you are facing. The end always points towards you. So yeah, when you are looking at a block at an angle, it's a bitch. Or, when you are trying to place a block between two other blocks.

    I mean, I like that you can control it now, it's just a pain to get them all facing the ways you want. You can't just slap blocks down indiscriminately anymore.

    Gonna rebuild my Lodge tonight, just because last night I got annoyed and just slapped the rest of it together.

    yeah took me forever to build the little spawn shack could not get a few to place right unless I took out the whole column and jump palced them. I wish you could right click them after being placed to rotate the angle.

    My house up on the mountain had a bunch of caverns under it that went throughout the mountain, so I just used them to my advantage and part of my casa. Made a few walls with doors to section parts off. Pretty big cave down there.

    I'm glad to announce that we've successfully breeded some cows in my breeding compound. Thanks to (in-game names): 508wrx, jettavr6, and sirswank

    The warp to it is : /warp breedingcompound

    I'd like to ask everyone to please leave 2 of everything alive if you're going to kill it just so we can breed more later on. Thanks

    I'm nut sure if it's supposed to happen or not, but going to the Nether seems to reset your XP level to 0. So do your enchanting before you go...

    Since MC redid enchanments Bukkit is having issues updating the code to handle it properly. The nether thing is probably a bug.

    I'm going to load the latest dev version of bukkit tonight and see if it does anything.

    I tried the nether thing again, and my xp level went back to normal as soon as I went back out.


    ... and then I died in a warp mishap
