What about everyone gets a "Birthday Cake" cape on Minecraft's anniversary. It would last 1 day or a week. (I don't know if there's already some kind of special event on the anniversary).
I support this idea, but it won't be doable until things like player stats and achievements are viewable online (sorta like Steam). I know one Mojangster is working on it, but we havent heard word of it.
I don't think anyone would play Minecraft all day long on their birthday.
Plus the cape is supposed to be permanent, like the Minecon red cape.
Maybe a splash text that say "Happy birthday to you!" when you log on your account.
No support.
There was a christmas cape in 2010 and this is the same idea you get it for 1 day. It doesnt really matter if you play minecraft on your birthday but its just a nice little touch for mojang to say happy birthday to you.
There's a few potential problems with this.
First off, what if someone modifies the code to have it always be their birthday? Infinite food?
Also, that would cause a lot more unnecessary stress on Mojang's servers. It'd poll every day through it's entire database of over 10M people.
It could
A ) check when you log in, not putting much more stress on the servers,
B )save the date as an encrypted file (so you couldn't just change it willy-nilly)
EDIT: had to edit the B ) because it turned into a smiley face.
That would be a nice gift. I would suggest that the cape will be active for 2 days. On your birthday and the day after that. That way you can enjoy the cape if you don't have the chance to play MC on your birthday. Support.

Yeah I guess thats a good idea because some people might be out during their birthday.
I like this idea full support, I suggested something a bit different where players that bought the game from alpha to beta 1.7 should get a special cape but that idea was locked. Now come to think of it I reckon players from the start of survival to last stages of alpha should get a cape but I like this idea more. Great thinking think you need +1 rep
I was playing minecraft and I was thinking,
And I got an idea that when you buy minecraft, it asks for your date of birth and on your birth day you would get a birth day cape for that one day (but just that one day until next year) .Also instead of the splashes on the side of Minecraft title it could say "Happy birthday (minecraft username)!!! I think its a really good idea.
What do you think?
No support. Seems redundant to add. And we'd also have noobs going "OMG HAOW U GET CAEP!!?!??!"
I agree with hiim. Also the splashes are randomly selected from a list. This would also be terribly hard to add seeing as you could play offline and it would have no information on your birthday. Multiple accounts can log in to one computer. The free cake on a server or single player thing should just be done with a plug-in.

It seems cool, but people would exploit it and fake their birthday, especially since they would probably know they would get one.
Edit: Still support this anyway :3
Thanks for supporting!

Then why are you suggesting a cape that you get for your birthday?
Because say you did want to play minecraft on your birthday then it would be nice for something special to be waiting for you there.

A ) check when you log in, not putting much more stress on the servers,
B )save the date as an encrypted file (so you couldn't just change it willy-nilly)

And jet, mojang monitors the suggestions forum so worry not.
