No. No. Netherbrick is a material that has worth because you have to make a portal to Hell, jump through, and wander around dodging Ghast's fireballs to find a Nether Fortress and take it apart. And to all those who say "But OMGZ it's so hard to find a Nether Fortress!!!!!1!1one!!1!" I watched a guy who went into the Nether for his first time ever, and his portal landed right below a Nether Fortress.
That is only one guy. You shouldn't judge other people's seeds on how a single person got lucky. It took me about 6-10 hours to find my first one.
I agree. This is one reason I think there should be a recipe.
Me too. When I "have" to take nether bricks, I usually take them from dead ends or the insides of thick walls/pillars, I don't want to see the fortress all f*ed up
My idea:
Netherrack is too abundant to be the only requirement
Soul sand isn't that hard to find, but it's a little limited
With my prefered idea, soulsand surronded by netherrack, you need 8 stacks of netherrack and 1 stack of soulsand just to make 1 stack of netherbrick, just keep that in mind.
Also, thanks humodz for the pic, although I don't like the idea of smelting neatherrack or soulsand. I don't think it requires any new items.
I say just 4 netherrack, but Recipe 3 is ok. I hate all the other ones.
Many people use tons and tons of Nether Bricks for walls, ceilings and flooring on MP servers, and the large demand always calls for people to venture out to find more fortresses when one fortress runs dry.
And almost everyone have at least a dozen stack of netherrack in their storage rooms, so I'd ignore fortresses for the rest of my life (except for the first one I find, to gather just the most basic materials, like nether wart and a couple blaze rods) it if it were just 4 netherrack in a square. That's too overly simple.
Woah, my thread actually got merged with this one! Now a lot of the posts are out of context, and this original thread's poll is replaced by my own. This might cause a lot of confusion in the future, because my post is buried in the middle of this thread now...
OP, could you add my original OP to yours to avoid confusion?
Merged several threads about this together. Normally I avoid doing this but seeing how they were all on the first page I decided it was worth it.
I'm a fan of smelting Netherrack into Netherbrick personally. It takes the same resources as it does to make a Stone Brick from Cobblestone, without the added step that brings 4 Smooth Stone to 4 Stone Bricks.

I have a question: this thread now contains my poll, but a different person's OP. Do I still have any kind of control over the poll?

I find this hard to believe, as you have no proof. In addition, look at the date I made this thread. It was over a month ago...
where
And please no blaze rods, me and many other people have to spend hours looking for a single fortress.
The recipe #3 is the best, #2 is ok, but I don't like #1, cause it's too easily exploitable.
Pretty sweet ideas overall, 10 diamonds for you

Also created poll.
Soulsand + Coal = Nether Brick
Netherbrick Netherbrick
Netherbrick Netherbrick = Nether Brick Block
