So as of late i've just been on servers, but in a few days i'll be on a vacation, and i'll need something to do while on the way... and I cant exactly connect to a server while on a highway with no wifi.
It has also come to my attention that i've been neglecting to do some single player (where I dont need to worry about "did someone already empty this dungeon? yes... yes they did")
So, okay, what i'm looking for, im not looking for a seed that has all these things, but if it had at least some that'd be great. the more + symbols, the more I desire to have that thing in a given world
so what am I looking for exactly?
Jungles ++++ (and even more so if parrots/ocelots)
Dungeons +++ (especially if they have name tags or saddles!)
Flower Forests +++
Wolves +++
Villages +++
Some flat-ish ground to build on ++
Witch Hut +
Ocean Monument ++
Mountains +
Temples ++
Horses +++
In general good scenery ++++
Mesa (normal or bryce) ++ Small islands close to shore +++
Floating islands of decent size ++
I suggest that you download Amidst v4.3beta2, run it, select a VANILLA profile for the PCMC version you prefer, and start hitting Ctrl-R. (the link is in my signature)
That will cause Amidst to display the biome map of random seeds.
Hint: Place Amidst in it's own folder and create an empty file in that folder named history.txt.
When Amidst starts up it will detect that file and from then on will create a log of every seed that it displays.
That way, if you hit Ctrl-R too quickly you can find out what the seed was of the previous map and redisplay it.
Ctrl-H gives you the seed input dialog.
I use Notepad++ as my default text editor.

If you aren't part of the solution, then you obviously weren't properly dissolved.
Lately, I've been playing hardcore and dying a lot, so I've gone through a couple worlds. The one I just died in (seed 2317) has a few things that might be of interest to you:
taiga/extreme hills, with a large flat area on the nearest mountain for building
practically spawn on top of a mineshaft (if you dig down...)
mineshaft connects to at least one dungeon (zombie)
village visible from spawn
wolves in taiga
I've been sticking close to spawn until I'm ready to find the stronghold, so I didn't see much beyond 300-500 blocks around the spawn point. Amidst tells me a few other things:
river to northwest leads to inland sea with two ocean monuments.
head due south to reach another inland sea and keep heading south until you get to a swamp with a witch hut (-152, 1736)
nearest jungle is pretty far to the west/northwest, but has a couple jungle temples (closest at -2920, -296)
For a mesa, try seed 0 or seed 10. I know I've seen a seed that starts you in/near jungle recently, but I've gone through a lot.

thank you Talys, i'll give that one a shot if no other ones are mentioned (though even then I'll still consider)
