I did some things! I dug a couple of mines, but both times I ended up hitting lava and it looked things were about to kick off so I got out of there. I went down a mine that was already there and found Obsidian but it was over lava and so burnt as soon as I mined it. I suspect I was being trolled. :-@

 

I built a house out of cobblestone, which looks like a giant grey brick right now but I promise I will make it prettier and/or move it.

 

I get very lost underground.


Also, I can't think of a signature, any ideas?

Obsidian is formed from lava, and I think can only ever be 1 deep (naturally) - so if the original lava was more than 1 deep (it often is, except perhaps at edges) then there will be lava under obsidian.

So in summary you'll need to replace the lava below it with something else before mining it - place a solid block and it removes the lava in that square.


Use torches and/or signs to mark your way underground, and help keep track of where you are.

Though some of the cave systems are so large and sprawling you'll still get lost, but that's half the fun sometimes. :P

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.

: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...)
