Anyone here have Minecraft?

Heh, I bought Minecraft two days ago, but I seem to have to go to the extreme outskirts to get some steel, coal is no problem though.
Any tricks on finding steel or even gold? (I know maps are randomly generated, but still)

Despite that it's a fun game, it's easy to lose track of time though.

oh. nice.

My IP reset last night, so PM me on the IRC (preferable) or sp.

That explains why i was taken off of the whitelist last night/1.5 days ago. =|

Ghost that shoot creepers. Cannot wait.

6 new blocks!? Also that mob is more intimidating than creepers by far. Is that a sort of demonic cobblestone in those pictures? Making portals to Hell using obsidian...scary. Hopefully the baddies cant go through it else youd have a DOOM situation on your hands.

I'm probably going to poop my pants if I go into Hell. Heck, I nearly did after a creeper exploded me as I was getting wood. Chop, Chop, Chop. Chop, Ch- SHHHHHHHHHHHHHH BOOM!

i so want to make one of these

How what if you launched yourself...?

You die. I managed to launch myself one, but I did not go far. Second attempt killed myself.

So....the sheeps and pigs and cows died.

You can see them flashing red as they fly away. I wonder what happens to the minecarts.

After the halloween update we shall build this in my server.

I plan to crop out much of the unneeded sections of the world in a map editor so we may have a world with biomes. No moar exploring until then, please.

you have a map ready of what you intend to crop out?

You could make an Adminium wall around what you deem "explorable", in MCEdit or something, then delete the chunks outside of the wall. Otherwise I will just walk until I find an island I like.

I would also like to point out two things about this machine.

1. The machine has room for more TNT. A lot more. I am almost certain it could go to the height cap and still function properly, although the redstone would be more complicated with a lot more delays.
   
2. MCEdit would let you make a "skematic" of this machine, and you could literally place it in your server anywhere you want, any amount of times you want. Building it might be half the fun though, so meh.

I'm probably going to crop out all of the vast uninhabited areas on the outside of the map to make a more square/circleish blob of land with the grass biome.

@_@ um.... that map is backwards dude

also A;SLKFDJSA;LDFKJ 65 MEGABYTE IMAGE? SERIOUSLY? You need to fix your damn post because YOU KNOW people are being to be bitching over loading a 65 megabyte image.

Erich, that image is 65 MBs in size. You should probably leave it as a URL.
