This is a question to all those who've explored dozens of worlds, how big are the average landmasses? I decided to sail around my continent before I built on it because I wanted to see its size and how big I could build a city, about three real-time hours later I came up with the answer of pretty damn big. So how big are they usually? I haven't even sailed around mine yet because I ended up on the exact opposite side of where I started, so my ocean is either a GIANT lake or continents are really, really big.

There are no continents. Odds are you're just sailing down a river or something.

This man really is a genius. Never have i seen such a clear and well written forum post.
See this Image (image is 20MB) for a gigantic map, lol. Exploring is fun, I'm going to stop exploring and get really building once the map is completely filled. For reference the thin unfilled strip is like 32x4000 (deleted the chunks I hacked). Oceans so need expanding.

Describing Minecraft is like describing orgasms...
There's no guarantee that a landmass will EVER be bounded by water. It's all just random. Given the general land/water ratio, enclosed seas are far more likely than continents.
With hills forest and lakes every which way, minecraft's geography is reminiscent of looking at a map of Finland's interior.

Look here to find links to my inventions, creations, and my Youtube channel featuring Amazing Creations of Mine (Redstone engineering FTW!!!) and charming Music-Videos about clones. I also made "Minecraft in Minecraft" (2D platformer/building game). I'm currently trying to make a computer.

LAND size. Not MAP size.
