‘Splorin

So as I was talking about the other day I decided to go to some random island and make a new mine. This has turned out incredibly fruitful. Not only did I find two monster spawners but I also found even bigger cave system than I have seen in mine, Hoff’s or Josh’s areas. I also found a new technique for lava problems.

 

I dump water on them:

Can you tell from this screen shot what else I found? I’ll give you a hint, they are both green:

That’s right I found a cd and I found this guy:

Weekend Update

Had a busy weekend exploring and building random crap. Still gathering brick for my structure Im building by Todd’s place but hope to have enough soon. Did you know that clay is rarer than diamond? Here are some highlights from this weekend.

 

Collecting some food for my adventures I ran into these squids which apparently spawned in my tiny little pools.

Now for some real dangerous exploring. Portal anyone?

Yay Nether! Unfortunately it is really high up and no easy access to lava pools. I did get some glowstone and a ton of netherrack. Got blown up a bunch by ghasts as well. Game was glitching bad so I couldn’t place the blocks to finish my anti ghast wall but I’ll try again later.

I also did some caving. Still haven’t found a cd but apparently mushrooms really like growing under ground. I found massive caves full of shrooms.

Hoff’s Bridge entrance completed

Hoff decided to clad his building in cobblestone but i still made his entrance out of sand and sanstone like his original place was.

This may or may not be the bridge I’m working on. I’m designing the entry and exit points to match the person’s existing style. So far Josh’s is complete. Stupid Todd used brick so that’s taking me a bit to farm up but should have enough soon. Hoff will get something sand related and I have some ideas. Still need to figure out the contraptions my entry will have since I keep building machines.
