An easier way to get redstone but with its set backs.
Ok what if there was this new item called Redstone Burn. This could be created by taking one leaf and one sand to make 2 of these.
Now Redstone Burn works just like Redstone wire however its only good for one use BUT it can go on forever and every block of Burn would be about 1 tick. Also if Burn wire ends on any flammable block it will set it on fire.
Obviously one of the reasons for Redstone Burn would be to tell your friends that you have set up TNT all around their area and with one press you could blow em all up. But it would create a dramatic effect (as seen in movies) because of the wire slowly burning towards the TNT.
The Pros to this is that it would be very easy to find, go on forever, and it can set stuff on fire.
The Cons would be that it only has one use, goes slowly, and it can set stuff on fire.
I say we just use gunpowder and use flint and steel to activate it, the gunpowder or your burn in ths case, would dissapear once burnt,it would allow us to use gunpowder in trails, like redstone, and would ignite flammagles that it comes into contact with, this on the negative side, helps greifers by allowing hidden evidence
idk about gunpowder cuz its annoying to find via creepers or dungeons(if theres another way please let me know). But Burn would add another asset the the redstone aresenal.
I could see long wires of this causing insane amounts of lag.

Mhh... It isn't very useful... I don't like it. I prefer using gunpowder for it, it is easy to get from creepers, and you can get them from ghasts and chests in strongholds, mineshafts, and dungeons.

This isn't a bad idea, though. Maybe making it more expensive *cough* gunpowder *cough* would be better.
