Day 2 Progress of the basketball arena project. A lot of progress! This is my version of Staples Center. Still a ton of work to do regarding the interior. I'm going to add a huge parking lot as well. I expect this to take a few more days but very pleased with the results so far.

Day 3 Progress. Last update. Upgraded the Jumbotron and added some ceiling lighting and completely filled the interior. Even added locker rooms. Just need to add a parking lot and add a bit more decor to the interior. Not bad for 3 days work!

Thank you! Lately I have been running out of ideas and I also get burned out. I haven't played all weekend. Sometimes I just get an idea in my head and have to see it through until it's completed. Right now I am working on the parking lot outside the arena but I still need a ton of resources. Easy thing to build though. I try to build things that are simple enough. My girlfriends daughter wants me to build the Harry Potter school but I said no way! I stay in my lane. No idea what to work on next. Might make some more boats.

Finally finished off my squid farm. I had built one in the desert but after the 1.13.1 update I had to relocate it. The farm is also close enough to my main base to actually run without being in the optimal afk spot (which is integrated into the build at the top of the tower.) I still have some terraforming and cleanup to do but I'm very happy with the way it turned out.
Currently playing on my new main survival world. I have been documenting each day that I can. I'm up to around day 45 now. And somehow I still am living in a villager house and I haven't mined a single ore block.

Currently working on a small 2 hole golf course with clubhouse and restaurant overlooking the last hole. This is based off Balboa Golf Course in San Diego. Day 1 Progress. Just need to do the #1 hole and add some minecarts as golf carts. This is a bit more challenging than I initially thought it would be since I am not too good with terraforming.

Day 2 Progress of my golf course project. The huge golf ball is made of ALL the bones I have collected over the years. Over 2 large full chests! Barely had enough. Bone Brick has an interesting discoloring effect on the top/bottom which makes it look like golf ball dimples. Still need to rotate the orientation on most of the blocks for the ball but just wanted to get the shape finished first. I completed the 2nd hole, added the cart path, Terraformed like crazy, finished the interiors and added some additional subtle details.
I plan on adding Blue Ice under the greens and using lime green carpet to cover it to make it more functional. If it looks worse than the lime green concrete powder being used now I'll remove it, but I imagine it will look the same if not better. I'll also be adding some golf carts, either as a small build or just minecarts (Leaning towards minecarts).

I finally have a functioning guardian farm! Spent hours clearing out an ocean monument (and doing some redecoration), and built a system of nice beefy storage silos to handle the drops. I still have an epic cave lighting project to do, but it's already churning out prismarine.
I surrounded the temple with magma blocks with a hopper minecart running underneath in an attempt to create a squid farm, but it turns out squid don't get pulled down by bubble columns, they just sorta shudder and stay in place. I'm getting a lot of cod out of it though!
Another fairly big project in the works. I have been creating a nuclear mushroom cloud for the last 2 days. Made a ton of progress on this. I still plan on blowing up the ground at the base with TNT and add floating dirt blocks and brown stained glass. The inside is Netherrack and Magma Blocks encased with various shades of black and white glass blocks. I'll be adding glass panes as well which should add some texture. Making this in survival is quite the challenge.

Over a year ago now, I stopped playing Minecraft due to difficulty burnout, leaving for more challenging games better fitting my desire. Recently I started replaying a survival game called "7 Days to Die", complete with a zombie horde that shows up every week and destroys everything in sight and always knows where you are. The difficulty reminded me of how easygoing Minecraft was, and I decided to reinstall it to give it another shot. Surprise! 1.13 exists and it has features I think only fit in a bad mod, but I'm playing it anyways.
I started off in quite a spot:
A village, desert well, chunk error and a beached pirate ship all at my spawnpoint. Interesting start.
The pirate ship gave me a treasure map, so I set sail and dug around for it to be greeted by a lot of loot.
Along the way I found a guardian temple, which I may end up using despite not liking prismarine very much, because of sea lanterns.
I kept sailing and found a new mainland to settle by, keyword "by." I found one of those ruined underwater structures and, combined with my real-life petty hatred of the ocean, inspired me to try living as exclusively underwater as I can. Just to see what I can come up with.
At this point I haven't done anything aside from patch all the holes and drain the thing, but my main structure is all there. The drowned are going to be fun to deal with, more than anything.

Watch out for the crabocalypse. Some say the day will never come. But it will.
Feel free to drop by for a chat whenever.
If you'd like to talk with me about other games, here are a few I play.
Team Fortress 2
Borderlands series (Borderlands 2 is my favorite game, ever. TPS combat is a lot of fun and makes up for the lower-quality story, in my opinion)
Elder Scrolls series
Warframe (IGN is something like That_One_Flesh_Atronach)
Pokémon series (HGSS forever)
Rocket League
Fallout series
Left 4 Dead 2 (Boomer files always corrupt though)
SUPERHOT (SUPERHOT is the most innovative shooter I've played in years!)
Dead Rising series (Dead Rising 2 is one of my favorite games, and the 3rd was a lot of fun. 1st has poor survivor AI and the 4th is bad)
Just Cause series
Come to think of it, I mainly play fighting-based games.
I have finished my new imperial mansion. After about 3 months of (not continuos) work on that bloody thing. 359 000 god damn blocks placed. I'm glad I have it, but I think I will leave the field of large scale construction. It's not like there is need to build something anyway (except of the highway system. That will never be complete).
Now I just need to move all my stuff there. It will be pain in the ass, but at least there is an actual space, where I can put it all. However, partitioning is still not done.
I decided to use armor stands and dyed leather armor to make basketball players on my court. I thought this was pretty original. Not sure I have really seen anybody do this before. I ran out of leather so just used old iron helmets/shoes and diamond shoes I had sitting around. I'd like to make some black and/or white leather shoes once I stock back up.
I'm up to around day 132 with my survival world. I now have a huge livestock farm and a large mansion in the process of building. So far just a bed, a furnace, 2 crafting tables, and excessive storage.

I took a break from my 1.7.10 world and started playing the StoneBlock modpack.
This pack is kind of like a skyblock map, but instead of being over the Void, you are in a small cave to start and there is no Overworld surface nor worldgen ores. Most of the resources you need are obtained through other means, such as sifting gravel, dirt, sand or dust. The pack has Ex Nihilo in ir, along with Mystical Agriculture and the Chickens mod.
There are 242 mods total in the pack, which is quest-based. There are not that many quest chapters to complete, only about 6. This is much less than a pack like Modern Skyblock 3.
I've been playing for about one full day IRL, and have built a Smeltery, made my first Tinker's tool (an Emerald pickaxe - it has around 1200 durability and can mine Cobalt. Emerald tool parts are added by a Tinker's addon called PlusTiC.
The pack also has Mob Grinding Utils in it, and I made a Mob Masher with 3 Looting Upgrades in it. The room where I am spawning mobs for drops and XP has Vector Plates from Dark Utilities. Eventually I want to upgrade it to a Cursed Earth mob spawner, which requires a Drop of Evil (obtained from Wither Skeletons). I have enough obsidian to build a portal, but I can also turn normal skeletons into Wither Skeletons by pouring Witch Water on them, which is made using water and Mycelium in an Oak Crucible.
The quest rewards are sometimes quite OP - I've already gotten 8 Draconic Cores from Draconic Evolution and a few other rare items. In Direwolf20's playthrough of this pack, he got an OP end game sword made using extreme crafting (part of the Avaritia mod).
If you are going to play this pack, be aware that it needs at least 5-6 GB of RAM and a good CPU to run. It is obtained through the Twitch launcher.
2 months after my first attempt at a hardcore world with natural health regeneration turned off, I decided I’d give a go to a second attempt, as I died in the first one by falling into lava...[I made a thread about that first attempt but died by falling down into lava, but I got somewhat lazy to update it and now it’s too late to do so since I lost the screenshots :(]
I created the world last week and so far haven’t died yet.
As as we speak, I am around Minecraft day 54 or so. Haven’t got anything too special in it, I just have a chicken farm, an AFK fishing farm, a basic house, and, believe it or not, a Power V bow!! (Which I actually got by combining several enchanted bows from my fishing farm). Also got quite a lot of diamonds (36 as of now) which I’m saving up until I get a decent amount of them.
Now I went on a second mining trip so I could replenish my supplies and especially my amount of diamonds. The bad news is that I have one heart left right now and without healing that might be a problem...
Well, I don’t know if I should make a new thread about it when I get farther into the world. Oh well, wish me luck anyways!

Walked nearly 8km from a jungle all the way back to my house, loaded with jungle saplings, cocoa beans, melons, all five types of parrots, and a cat.
