I sent an email to Notch. But doubtful he'll respond or even see it. Perhaps he'll see this thread though. Or maybe not. But still a bit... interesting. Here is the email I sent:
I spent a good two hours today making a new building on my map. I saved through saving the map and exiting to the main screen and exiting out of the console window as I normally do. I'm running the latest SSP beta update. I open it back up and the building is gone. I built the house from bricks and glass. All the bricks and glass were gone when I saved and exited, as I used them up. And if it hadn't saved, there would be bricks and glass in my inventory right? Well there aren't...
Oh yes indeed. I build a nice building today. Save and exit to main screen and exit from that. I return a few hours later. Everything is the way I left it. Heck even my jacko lanterns I put on blocks around my map are still there. Even my newly added mine cart system is still there... but... the building is gone... O_O
A least it was a brick house and not a giant diamond tower with gold/obsidian floors that took you over 9000 hours to build.

There's only one way to find out. We must tie him up and throw him in the lake. If he lives, he is a whitch. If he dies, he is human. MY LOGIC BEATS YOURS.

This guy has the right idea.

1. In WoW, the max level is 85.
2. He never wanted the game to be like WoW, he wanted us to help us build structures from the game.
3. Conversations are never like that in WoW.
At least show SOME intellect when posting.
I get a similar thing when the game crashes, which is fairly often: usually once an hour or so.
Stuff that i might have recently built is gone, inventory items gone.
I use Invedit to recover lost inventory items, and just rebuild.
I also get into the habit of manually saving and exiting every so often to reduce likelihood of lost blocks.

Annoying, but what can you do?
