There will not be a 12w39a snapshot this week. I'm actually kind of annoyed by this. Why is Jeb skipping releasing so many snapshots and taking vacations? Dinnerbone does more work then Jeb and Jeb is taking another vacation, even though he just took one around a month ago? One more rant, why can't dinnerbone just release it himself?
Done ranting, your opinions?
Good grief the guy can't take a vacation? Just because your little world it centered around his work doesn't give you right to criticize how or when he spends his vacation time. He probably put off taking much time earlier in the year because there was a lot going on with the merge and such. With the crappy weather time of year right around the corner, now is the time to grab some vacation.

Based on how many posts you have, you should not be insulting me for loving Minecraft.
Uhh... Snapshots are just a bonus. They are not what you paid for. They are done solely because Jeb wants to do them. If he doesn't want release a snapshot, then you just have to deal with it.

I use the FTB modpack, because it's fun, and extremely convenient.

This goes to show that a lot of the hate towards Notch wasn't because of him as a person, but because of an unsatisfiable fanbase. Unless the developers are working on the game every waking moment (and on the right thing, mind you), they will get flak for having productive lives.
I wouldn't blame Jens for taking another vacation so soon. Have you READ the threads that are getting posted here recently?
He gets just as much hate as any other famous person, and working on Minecraft is kinda his JOB... I agree that all these vacations and missed snapshots are getting annoying.

Oh well? Jeb can do what he wants. It's already nice enough of Mojang to continue updating Minecraft even years after the game has been released, and these snapshots are intended for finding bugs anyways. Let the man take a break. Besides, they probably just don't have a compiled snapshot as there may be too many incomplete features or alternations right now.
I remember how the community unjustifiably turned on Notch. Let's not let it happen to Jeb too. There was a time when half the people here were chanting Jeb's name as if he were a god. The whole thing is ridiculous.
While it is a shame that there wont be another snapshot this week, as I was sorta looking foreward to seeing what they had in store for us, I suppose I would want to take a-.. Actually screw that, why can't Dinnerbone just release the snapshot?..
/me sighs
Atleast there ought to be even more in next week's snapshot..

Now that Dinnerbone is reliably making fun new content, and Jeb is the one who has been behind some of the more 'controversial' changes (minor texture changes that a minority would explode in disgust towards), the roles seem to be shifting to where Jeb is the lazy bad guy who makes changes to old content that 'isn't broken', while Dinnerbone is the haralded content god from the heavens who gives the community what they want.

Sure he can do what he wants, but no one has to like it. I don't mind if he takes vacations, but he recently had a vacation so it's not like he's been working for weeks straight, and apparently no one else is capable of uploading snapshots while he's away. The last sentence of your first paragraph is confusing, if there was another reason for withholding the snapshot, Dinnerbone would've tweeted that.

I was really looking forward to this week's snapshot, but I can wait.

I tried it with terrible results. I gave my wife my glasses for a second, a creeper showed up and now my wife is pregnant.
Stupid 3D..
