I found this seed while looking for a good Nether generation. The Overworld is kinda bare in the area immediately around the spawn, but ive listed a lot of fun stuff you can find with a little walking. The main point of this seed is that if you place a portal near the starting spawn, when you enter the nether you are right in front of a Nether Fortress, as well as a second unatached Nether Fortress very close to the first.
Seed: byaw
Structures: On, Bonus Chest: On, Cheats: On, World Type: Default
Note: Seed also works up to Snapshot 12w39b
There are lots of ground level lava sources and fissure openings with this seed.
Points to check out: Towns
X: 567, Z:406 (Obsidian in the blacksmith house)
X: 701, Z: 875
X: -346, Z: 200 (Desert, Obsidian in blacksmith house)
X: 1082, Z: 823 (Desert)
Tested on snapshot 12w36a. I built my base across the river at 200,19. I built a nether portal at 218,13 and the nether fortress is there as described. I found three towns nearby but the coords are off from those listed (567,706; -346,200 and 1082,823). Also, if you dig down to about 233,15,-11 there is a lava pool with easy access to diamonds, redstone and gold. There are mob spawners nearby at 227,49,14; 225,49,42; 196,25,-42; 152,18,31.
First off, sorry to gravedig this thread. But I have to say that im glad some people got this working fine and that it was usefull. Also it still seems to be the same as of the 12w29b snapshot.
I'm not exactly the most technically savvy person so the only way to find out is to create a new world and use this seed and see what happens? Or, ask.

Let me know what you think or if you find anything cool that I missed.
I tested it on two different machines, did you make the portal near the first spawn? And what were the coordinates your spawn?
Almost forgot, Ender portal is at 482,34,489.
BTW found Jungle Temple at:
x: 544
z: -281
Will this seed work for (1.4.7)?

So, I've asked. Now I'll start a new world. : )
