Hm... not much, really. Spent most of my yesterday's Minecraft SMP life in watching over the animals my team keeps in the animal pens —we're keeping our activity close to town to prevent their despawning until the lead update comes out—, failed three times to bring back sheep from far away biomes —we're surrounded by tundras and jungles, and wild wolves are a threat to my herding attempts—, retrieved roughly 30 iron blocks (270 ingots) from a new dungeon system we found northeast of the main town...
Well, I stopped a alien invasion, destroyed both the wither and the enderdragon, made a car, a plane, a UFO after using the alien technology from said alien invasion, cured cancer and tamed 50 wolves and breed them all. Oh yeah, and I got a pet zombie. He's cute. I named him pummy.

I'm a huge fan of dimetrodon. nobody will get that pun.
Made my first ever Mob Grinder. Passes as a Mob Grinder. But it isnt, time effecient. I plan in tinkering with it a bit more. Its a Spider Mob Grinder BTW. This is in SMP minecraft.
The world in which I was building my wizard's tower started crashing because I had been searching in NEI for items from XyCraft, and deleted the search string. For some odd reason that mod is the only one that uses colors in NEI's search string, and deleting it causes the crash. I was able to save that world after posting in the FTB forums, but started a new world anyway.
In the new world, I have already made a small farm with XyCraft corn, RedPower2 flax, wheat and carrots, gotten some chickens and cows, and just last night found some pumpkins after searching for almost an hour and not finding any. I've planted the seeds for those.
I'm still living in my first shelter I hollowed out of the side of a hill in a forest biome. I've already gotten quite a bit of resources, including 70 diamonds, a lot of RedPower2 gems, Xychorium, Thaumcraft3 shards, and some other items. I also found a Portal Gun, and used it to to capture a couple of spawners from a TC3 Barrow Hill, one skeleton and one zombie, and make traps out of them not far from my shelter.
Finally, I have started building the walls for a more permanent base around 200 blocks away. My current base is not an ideal location because creepers can dive bomb me from the hill above, and there's an unstable Aura node with an Obsidian ruin nearby. Which means I sometimes have Wisps to deal with.I've encountered green and red ones. The green ones (Lignum aspect) are neutral, but the red ones (Mutatio aspect) are hostile, and I have been shot at by their lightning a few times. And they are hard to hit with a bow because they drift around so much.
I went for a walk in the jungle to find an ocelot to tame and not only found a kitty, but a pumpkin (the first one I have found on this survival world) and a jungle temple with 3 diamonds and 3 emeralds! Now I am able to start a pumpkin farm.
Well, so far this afternoon I've made some progress in my single player world. The objective — to finally clear the game without cheating, something I haven't done yet.
Today I've managed to find a Nether fortress, built a series of pillars as guidance between the fortress entry and the Nether portal, and did likewise with a Blaze spawner I found after a few minutes of navigating the corridors and terraces. Got a few Blaze rods, went back home to craft my first Eye of Ender on that map, and after that I spent my time doing minor stuff on the Overworld, such as building a clock on the wall —my usual hunting grounds were surprisingly devoid of cows, whose leather I needed for the item frame, and I had to venture even further southeast— and planning an Enderman hunting session I'll perform north of my base in one of the following Minecraft nights.
Latetly I finally finished of changing the stone walls above the swimming pool into gravel. Previously I only had the back wall done, but now both the sides are done as well.
Originally in 2010, a 16 level block mountain stood here, where the tennis court and pool are.
Also after creating a coca bean farm in my Divine RPG world (1.4.7.), I decided to do the same for my main World #2 above. The plan, to get rid of the old pumpkin farm on top of the leveled out area, I don't need a great deal of pumpkins anyway. So previously, it looked like this:
Now it looks like this:
Due to wanting to square the area of the top more for the jungle logs, I had to redo the path/stairs leading up to the tree farms, where I had to fill out the sides. I also took the opportunity to re-do the path tp the left side of the wheat farm, leading up to the new coca farms, and also down to the underground farms. (Mushrooms, carrots, potatoes.)
Previous path up to what was the pumpkin farm:
Now:
Excuse the mess to the left, my inventory was full! All of that stuff will be removed! I'll probably move that birch tree at the back to the center as well.. Single wooden steps to the underground farms have been replaced with stone-brick steps with a nice wider, neater path.
The path round to the tree farms I had to make neater, after squaring of the land above for the new coca bean farms:

I finished the Epic Jump map, Budder Edition, and started a new survival world. it was crazy this one mountain i found. it was giant rectangle, exposing a lot of ores. other than that, not much
I did some further work on the wall around where my new base is going to be. This area is 42x95 on the inside, and a good portion of that space will be for farming trees and crops. The wall is up to 7 blocks, but still needs more done as I ran out of cobblestone again and had to go mining for more.
I'm running out of room in some of my chests, so the sooner I move, the better. I want to build a logistics/sorting system based on Applied Energistics. But as of yet I obviously do not have any of the infrastructure built for that. And nearly all the ore I have mined has not been smelted yet. In addition, I am still getting Mutatio Wisps spawning outside, and getting attacked by them as well. And I had to replant some of my pumpkins after a spider jumped on them.
I also collected some more lava from the pool near my new base site. I have 134 cans of it waiting to go into a tank so I can run Geothermal Generators for IC2 power.
After having found the third and final stronghold, the only one with an intact End portal, I decided to take the necessary Eyes of Ender to the portal to activate it. Little did I know that standing on the edge of the portal while placing the last eye was pretty much a guarantee that I'd be going in. It would not be an understatement to say that at that point I was unprepared to fight the Ender Dragon, but I made the best with what I had on me. After taking out four or five crystals, I was done in by the Endermen who mercilessly laid into me. What sucks is that I had quite a bit of good kit. I did have a good laugh, though.

I woke up, went downstairs, and made myself a roast beef melt. Then, I went back upstairs and ate. Then I went to the bathroom, and now I'm about to play some Minecraft

I found a zombie spawner and created an underground base centered around it with a huge mushroom, tree, and carrot "farm". I got an enchanted iron shovel with efficency III and silk touch so that was pretty useful for obtaining the mycelium. Here's a couple quick pics:
The water slide brings the zombies that wander into it down into a little collection room, and the current is so strong they can't escape. It's pretty crude, but it brings them far enough away so the spawner keeps spawning them indefinitely. I've collected as many as 40 of em in my little room Going to construct a long tunnel all the way back to my old house, and create a shaft that leads directly up into it.

That looks cool, nice job!
