The Seed is what is used to generate your world. You can either make your own seed, or Minecraft will make the seed using your computer clock.

I bet if we new how to do coding, and make mods, and stuff, we could make a POTCO Minecraft server. Is it me, or is that a good idea for a multiplayer?

Great. But, I don't know if I need to update my Bukkit server now. Oh, and if anyone wants to join, just PM me and I'll send you the IP!

I have a Bukkit server as well. Typically Bukkit updates take a few days to release after an official update, but could take as much as a week or longer. They do also release preview versions early, but they could have some bugs, so if you use a preview version make sure to backup your world file.

Uhh... desert temple is in the wrong biome... o_o

[Captain Gas]

And near an NPC village, I see...lol.

This is for all the Shadow Sorcerors to see. This is a little something that Johnny Darkwalker and I built on our Shadow Sorcerors server (PM me if you are interested in having the IP). Unfortunately, there is no angle which can show its full majesty. Just a note, this was built without using WorldEdit.



And here is a top view.



I think that this phoenix is probably one of the best creations I have ever made in Minecraft. Anyway, tell us what you think!

[Captain Gas]

Tibby, y u no give me art skills? But, anyway, nice! Best I can do is a Nyan Cat. :P

[Swash]

Probably going to install a dev build of 1.3 bukkit on my server, so I can go ahead and start playing 1.3 :]

Actually, looked at release notes for 1.3 and it says this for temples:


+ Added temples to jungles and deserts

And, as you can see, it's very near a jungle. So, it's in the right place.

Jungle temples and desert temples are different...

This is what a jungle temple should look like...

Oh...well, then, JEB! FIX THIS NONSENSE!

[HammyTheSquirrel]

FYI, new snapshot out with a couple features coming in 1.4. http://www.mojang.com/

Just go on creative and start spawning zombies (make sure you're on hard ). That's all I'll say.

All kidding aside, this game has the wierdesy bugs.
