The new 404 Challenge!
Everyone loved it, well here is one for 1.8
The seed: -341414797482072298
You spawn in a desert, head north east from spawn (between 1 and 2 for the 'f' value on the debug (f3) screen).
There you will find a NPC village with a collapsed dungeon in the middle, you have one day to collect as many supplies from that village and dungeon as possible, you cannot stray to find resources elsewhere.
When night starts to fall enter the collapsed dungeon in the middle of the village, and begin to mine down. You will eventually hit a huge stronghold/abandoned mine (2 in 1!).
The challenge: Survive for as long as possible.
Coordinates of NPC Village for those having trouble finding it:
-x: -308.62
-y: 72.62
-z: 743.67
Protips:
-Harvest as much wheat as possible, and of course make bread.
-You can get 1 bucket, and craft one to gather water and lava if you know where to look.
-Gather logs from the houses rather than plain wood.
-Sand is more useful than it appears.
-Taking advantage of that dungeon is always a possibility.
Images:
-Spawn.
-When you see this giant tree and mountain start heading right a little.
so... 404 challenge is with another seed than 404 eh? should call it...
err...
ok ya know what it works for now, is there a site that will translate seeds into letters with appropriate words?
Made it 4 minutes 15 seconds after dropping into the mine system after dark. That is insane but very fun. Cave+Stonghold+Ravine+Multiple mineshafts all overlapping with big lava lakes and lots of blue spiders.
You should really start a new thread with a title like "Stronghold seed and coordinates!". This one is EXTREMELY close by the start and very easy to find. AFAIK it would be the first posted seed for a stronghold. Turns out they are tied to the seed after all...
Ill remove this pic if you want since its your thread but here is a photo and coords of the library. Just dig down...
Great seed also - nice desert village with fancy new mountains. Green disc in surface dungeon, etc..

Never said it used the 404 seed, just that it is a similar challenge, but with alot of the new 1.8 features involved.
And no, not that I know of, but if someone finds something like that I'd like to see it.
I played this on creative just to see what a stronghold was like. The library part is really freaky. The whole abandoned prison cells/libraries/mineshafts/villages thing is making me think. What happened? :mellow.gif:

The Endermen used to be human, they lived in the villages and the strongholds. They dug the mines. Then something happened. Now they wonder around, ashamed of what happened and how they look, so they move block aimlessly around not sure of what to do with their lives anymore.

I am currently beating Minecraft Forum's silly & stupid limits. This signature will definitely be more than 2 lines long. Who da fudge even came up with that silly rule?
Ha ha MCF
Minecraft is definitely a lot worse now.
I'm serious
I don't see how anyone can legitimately play this game and have fun
Wanna know why I think it's so bad?
It took Mojang over 2 months to finish 1.8
My reaction when 1.8 came out?
LOL is this some kind of joke?
Then I sadly figured out that it wasn't a joke.
1. Less updates, much less frequently.
They are implementing features that suck
Example?
Hunger system.
The hunger system sucks.
Do I have to explain why?
No seriously, do I really have to explain why? Look at the many threads about it on this forum.
I'm against the hunger system
2. They add in pointless updates, even some that make the game worse.
I don't feel like finishing this post with more reasons, maybe I'll do it later.
Anyways, at the end of the day, Minecraft has been sucking lately.
Oh yeah!
Take this Minecraft Forum! My signature is longer than 2 lines! HA HA HA HA HA.
