I spawned a new world and went exploring and found something
amazing.
I decided to
hollow out
the right standalone structure, and make it my base. While messing around with the floor I found
a
c
a
v
e
with a
small
deep
lake. Further exploring I found an even more expansive lake. I'll upload a video of that soon
I love underground lakes, unfortunately I usually only find underground rivers and no lakes.

So with the Halloween update out and
Hell
the Nether available for exploration I'm wondering if anyone has some neat videos/stories about their fun? I'm currently looking for diamond for a pickaxe so I can make my Nether portal.

All i can suggest is make a back up BEFORE you even make the portal. Partly because the portal mechanic seems a bit. . . odd at the moment. I tried figuring out exactly why but certain portals you can go in but when you go back(from nether to realworld) it will make a THIRD portal and it is the one you always walk out of. I then made a new world, cheated in items, and made multiple portals around and tried messing with why this happens sometimes. I ended up with 10 portals that were mostly connected randomly one way or another for some reason.
The world itself is AWESOME. One thing though, you can't put water in it. At all. Snow blocks sit there all fine but the moment you use a bucket with water it will fizzle out(even if you put, say, a dirt box in the nether world and set the water in that).
Also: both the top and bottom has bedrock.
One more: i haven't got back to my spawn region but i cartographed after i had the nether world and theres something strange going on there . . . might just be a carto glitch though.
Good luck, and don't attack the Zombie Pigmen!
That is always a good idea before you go out and exploring the unknown :)
And of course water wouldn't work in hell :)

Notch is going fix this though, at the earliest by next Friday. Also when you enter the nether, if you do not know this already, if you attack the pigmen they will all swarm you and you will get nailled unless you are really well prepared. And you can hit the fireballs launched from ghasts back at them, notch may even implement getting a record for killing ghasts this way.
Also the portal bug is caused by the fact that when you use a portal in the normal world, the one in the hell world could end up spawning inside of a cliff or something if it appeared in a relative position, so instead the game moves the portals spawn location in the nether. This then means that when you use the portal in the nether a new one is generated in the normal world, and if it would generate inside of a cliff or something it instead moves the location where it will spawn in the normal world. Thus the cycle repeats until the portals you make are in the correct relative positions to each other.

Those things are called ghasts?
Yes they are :P
and the zombie pigmen in hell are called exactly that; zombie pigmen
I just saw my first skeleton on a spider. I kicked it ass, with 1 other spider and 2 creepers chasing me too. The spider may have started attacking the skeleton, and I may have been in water.
Nice, when I first saw one there was two of them and I had no bow on me and only a stone sword, I had pretty much just started the game, needless to say they and the other twenty or so mobs had a nice party in the massive pit the creeper explosions made, and yes, I died :D

A friend of mine has, though during the last few days it has been working on and off, largely because not everyone can always connect to minecraft.net due to the number of connections it must already be receiving. Unfortunately portals do not work and you can choose to either have a normal world or a hell one, though the hell one is pretty messed up.

Redstone is complicated.
Post by

Actually I think it is quite easy to use when you get the hang of it, unless you are talking about in multiplayer where it is all buggy :P (though finally at least doors don't glitch up all the time, that was so annoying)
I even made a redstone disco floor which can be turned on and off using a lever, it is pretty epic, and the lights flicker randomly so that patches of the glass floor above it are lit up. It is probably one of my better redstone inventions, that circuit is, though I am quite happy with my trap collection systems and loot sensors.

Well I'm trying to make an iron door system for a treasury and trying to hide the circuits.
Its not going well.
I got half of it done (One door) now for the other half.
