Thanks. :)

I'm playing again, anyone else coming on?

I found a room underground with a load of mossy stone, which I thought was rare, but there were also two chests containing a few little stacks of random stuff and a pig spinning in a cage (really). Is this normal?

That, sir, is a dungeon. If we weren't playing on Peaceful then that weird thing in the middle would be spawning monsters. It is called a spawner. It has a pig in it, rather than a monster, because we are on peaceful.

The chests (and the stuff in them) are your reward for finding/neutralising it!

If it weren't on peaceful, you can stop a spawner from spawning by placing torches near it after fighting your way in.

And yes, they are quite rare :D

Then I shall plunder its bounty. :]

 

You should see my new house, it is significantly less cuboid.

I shall do sometime soon. I want to get back into Minecraft.

You better, I'm back later today.

wtf, you're still in foreign?

Not now, just got back.

Amazing lighthouse.

Where?

:D


Just need to hook up a long bit of redstone so it turns on as people reach the corner.

Oh, and replace the pumpkins with lava, which I think will make it brighter (assuming I can do it safely).

South West of the under-construction docks, South East of the partially-built railway station, North-by-NorthWest of the island which looks like a chopped-in-half christmas tree.

East of my house. There's a track to it near my track it seems.

Also, since you've used bricks does this mean the map is generating clay in new areas of map?

 

Another thing, how much blue wool?!?!

Yes - it's still relatively rare, but not nearly so much as before.
I think I needed two and a half deposits worth to get enough.


Not quite enough. There's a lot of naked blue sheep wandering around, but I still need at least five times more than what I've got so far. :P
(So if anyone has any Lapis Lazuli they don't need...)

How much do you need? I have a few lying around although I want to use some blue wool myself at some point.

Lots. Assuming an average yield of 3.5 wool per painted sheep, I could do with at least a dozen full stacks of dye.

I don't have that much. :(

 

I do have tons of Redstone but from what I've found that's pretty common anyway.

Yeah, fairly common. You do use quite a bit when building circuits and powered rails and stuff though.
