4 rows * 9 columns = 45 cells, (when you can't remember the correct number of rows).

It takes one click to grab an item, and a second click to place it, and 45*2 is 90.

But since the inventory is actually 36 (excluding 4 armour), it's only 72 clicks.
Except you need to do some of it again (probably the 9 hotkey slots), so it is actually 90 afterall. :@


Plus Minecraft logs stats about what you do. I do not wish to be labelled a serial suicider. :@

Which is the same number of clicks it would take to put your stuff down regardless :?

You can shift-click to move things quicker.

No it isn't, because:

* I don't constantly empty and refill my hotkey slots, which I would have to.

* I also carry around useful things that do not go in chests, so again more annoying clicks, as well as the time wasted on the forced decision of whether I need all these X blocks down "here" or should take some back home for use elsewhere.

* Having to constantly go home every single time I have any valuable things at all is a pain in the arse, and results in more clicking because I'm not able to wait safely whilst I gather more valuable stuff. Placing 8 of something eight times takes far more clicks than placing 64 of something once.

* I don't want to keep sleeping and killing myself. It's incredibly depressing!

* We have midnight sun and can't sleep even if we want to.

* Grrrrrrrr! :[

When I say "do not go in chests" I mean "live full-time in my inventory, just like tools" - I always have a healthy square of mud, enough sand/gravel for dropping, ladders, signs, buckets, coal, torches, etc - stuff that I carry around for when I need it, so I don't have to traipse back to a chest.

ah right, yes, I do that too

I'd like several 'inventories' - like toolboxes maybe, I'd be ok with only carrying one at a time but I would like to be able to change quickly/easily from my mining kit to my building one, or a 'gardening' one

Who built the huge fucking trench that cut me off from my shit? And where is the entrance to the other side? I had a chest over there and now I have no idea where it is, and can't get over there because the stupid fucking game thinks I'm trying to fly! /fuck me/

That's a server glitch. The easy way to fix it is to (not jump into the gap and) log out then back in.

what patch said^ (it's a server mis-load, not a constructed thing)

yuo can either log out and back in agaib
or, I have found, placing a torch right on the edge seems to work

wow, thanks! That would have taken some massive digging! I wondered who hired the Egyptians over the weekend!

Yeah I didn't get on until 3 or 4 AM your time. Peter was up for a bit, but not long enough to keep me from freaking out.

Not your fault! Just wish someone was there to tell me what I was seeing!

 

I swear this game cheats. As soon as I get diamonds I end up in lava. Just about every time. 4 times last night. Grrr

How are you ending up in lava?

I dunno, it's like it just jumps up and eats me. And I'm serious!
