How on earth did you get all of those mushroom blocks?
Spent about 20 minutes planting mushrooms on mycellium then using bonemeal to grow them and then used a silk touch pickaxe to get the blocks. Took about 4 hours of walking to find my first mushroom biome though.

It's a wonder you have all this time on your hands.

It's a wonder you have all this time on your hands.
Yeah, I have a lot of free time but I'm pretty lazy most of the time. I actually could have finished the building over a year and a half ago instead of still having a lot of things that still need a finished on it if I didn't get lazy and then take a month long break from it multiple times. I actually found the mushroom biome while I was looking for an ice spike biome and decided to use the mushrooms together with the ice for the pathway, but I think I did that about 10 months ago and then decided to just build the wall along the path.
I've picked a place to build an artificial village. I'm not sure how Malisis Doors interacts with villagers using doors, though, so I'll have to look into that.
There are a couple of LittleMaids (from littleMaidMobX) near the place where I'm going to build my artificial village. I'll probably tame (hire) one at some point in the future.
I've planted gysahl greens (from ChocoCraft). A full harvest of the gysahl greens yields 60 of them, though some of them drop loverly gysahl or golden gysahl (both used to breed chocobos) instead of normal gysahl greens (which are used to tame and heal chocobos).
I've built a chocobo pen as well. I used birch fences (from Gany's Surface) for the main structure and limestone slabs (from Chisel 2) for the roof. I still need to put a straw floor (from ChocoCraft) and a water cauldron to make it a "real" chocobo pen, though (with a straw floor and a water cauldron, chocobos that are standing in the pen will gradually regenerate health).
I've tamed a chocobo (from ChocoCraft) and named her "Buckie".
I tamed her pretty far from my base (a fair distance away from where I'm building my artificial village) and I forgot to bring the chocobo saddle that I made, so I ended up having her follow me back to my house. (You can command chocobos to either follow you or stay still using either a chocobo feather (which chocobos occasionally drop while alive) or a chocopedia (a book that does a few different things related to chocobos and also acts as the mod's manual)).
Buckie now has a saddle and saddle bags. Chocobo saddle bags have 36 inventory slots (basically like a single chest with one more row of slots; however, they don't support the Inventory Tweaks API, so I'll need to organize the contents of her saddle bags manually. (I know about the custom compatibility feature of Inventory Tweaks, but both saddle bags and pack bags use the same container class, so the chest sorting buttons would be placed weirdly.)
I've placed some more chests and drawers (drawers from Storage Drawers) in my basement. (The basement is going to be pretty darned big when I'm done with it.)
I've planted 24 rubber trees (from MineFactory Reloaded), so I'll have plenty of rubber (for various things; for example, raw rubber can be used to make torches) and rubber wood (MFR rubber wood can be smelted into charcoal unlike rubber wood from IndustrialCraft 2 which gives jungle wood logs when smelted.)
That's the story thus far!

I found the world's smallest stronghold. It had the entrance stairway, one crossover room, three empty iron door chambers and the portal room. No library or chest. I finally gave up and used an X-ray pack and found nothing else.
I am playing version 1.8, could this be an issue with this particular release?
I haven't been playing (or posting) much recently- too much real-world gobbledygook to deal with- but last night I was finishing up my 37th 1,204 x 1,204 map when, lo and behold, off in the distance, on day 3066 of my world, I spied some really tall trees that were not spruce- ta-da!
I didn't take any screen shots while there, and only chopped up enough foliage for two saplings (I didn't want to despoil it too much before I returned), but I did bring back my first cocoa beans:
Note the gleeful chocolate chip cookies in my hotbar! But not the gawdawful ugly little hut in the center...
The tip of the jungle is about 1,500 m in a straight line from the terminal of my nearest subway (conveniently the one I'm running my latest mines out of), so it looks like I'll be digging my way there soon....

Um, I randomly found the smallest stronghold. Yours does not compare. It was just the Portal room.

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.
Well after mining Nether Quartz for about half an hour and discovering a Nether Fortress close to my portal, I can finally start building my Undead Horse Pasture. Picture will go in spoiler after I'm done.
EDIT: I am done after many hours! *checks statistics* Holy cow, 532 quartz!?
I've started a secondary world in my "tech mods" profile.
The main difference for this world is that I'll be playing mostly in easy mode (instead of peaceful mode) once I have finished building my house.
I don't have that much done there, though...
As far as non-survival stuff goes, I've set up a development environment for a mod that I've wanted to make (and have been planning) for quite a while now. I'm calling it "Fancy Blocks"; it will add a whole bunch of different blocks, hence the name.
I also used that to find the ore dictionary name for wooden chests ("chestWood" for anyone who's curious), so I can use that in my Json Recipes recipe files.
That's the story thus far!

I found this interesting desert temple while returning to my base, in the same desert (notice what is in the foreground), there's also desert hills behind it with overhangs:
Loot from the four chests (the book has Aqua Affinity); I took everything except for the rotten flesh, plus the 9 TNT under the chest room:
This is probably at least two separate desert biomes joined together when compared to the size of most other biomes:
Also, here is a series of renderings from the last few times I played; I made quite a bit of progress over the past couple days in particular, mining about 4,000 ore on each day; the first day was mostly iron and coal while the second day yielded more than 200 gold (three Notch apples worth - and people often say they are underpowered due to their cost, while I think they are underpowered because they are nearly useless in normal Survival; that said, in 1.9 you can no longer craft them) and 35 diamonds (41 total). I've also found two more abandoned mineshafts (in addition to the one explored on the second day), one of which is located near the staircase seen near the right (dug to mark the location, which I'll return to after finishing the caves in the general area), the other one is hidden by caves. There is also a large cluster of ravines, including a triple ravine, near the lower-center:
(keep in mind that as I mentioned in an earlier post there are less mineshafts than you'd find in vanilla, about 2/3 as many, since I prevented them from generating in areas with more than a certain number of caves)
Also, I previously mentioned that I'd found a villager trading a diamond pickaxe for emeralds; while I don't seriously trade with them for items like this (just for fun) I decided to see just how hard (easy?) it would be to buy one from him; I traded other villagers wheat (using bonemeal to speed up growth) and wool (taken from wild sheep) and got 11 emeralds without much effort (I also got a free pair of shears, which I use to clear cave spider spawners, and a leather cap).
While on the subject of trading for diamond gear, I don't see anything wrong with making diamonds themselves renewable, an idea which is usually shot down as being "overpowered" every time it comes up - even though you can buy the equivalent of 8 diamonds in the form of a chestplate for as little as 2 emeralds per diamond, and they come with free enchantments (in 1.8; costs are slightly lower in older versions but they are not enchanted, you can get (nearly) every piece of gear though). In fact, in an upcoming version of TMCW I've made Giants drop a diamond with a 25% chance, increasing to 50-75-100% with Looting; since they are rather rare (I haven't seen more than one per night except in Superflat) and not easily farmed I figure this is pretty balanced, plus I've reduced diamond gear to roughly the equivalent of iron (lower tiers have also been reduced; for example, a wooden shovel deals +0 attack damage, making it the same as fists) in vanilla with amethyst being the new diamond tier (previously they were the same except for durability, and that was often more than offset by repair costs).
I've also implemented an interesting feature - attacking a mob within 1 second of the previous attack deals less damage (down to 25% at 0.5 seconds), sort of like 1.9's cooldown but only acting on a per-mob basis (i.e. you can hit two different mobs in less time with no penalty; this simply extends their damage immunity, with the first 0.5 seconds nullifying all damage and turning them red as usual). This only affects damage dealt by players (it should also affect players attacking another player, hence PvP). Combine this with weapons losing durability even when the attack deals no damage (a bug that was fixed for mobs in 1.7, see description; I can nearly break a new golden sword by spam-clicking one zombie to death), and this gives a good reason not to spam-click.
I've also been considering adding an enchantment similar to Mending, which replaces renaming to keep the prior work penalty from increasing; unlike 1.9 you'll still need to use an anvil and resources to repair gear and repair costs depend on the enchantments and how much durability is restored (Mending as it is in 1.9 is quite overpowered IMO; each XP point restores 2 durability and with some 5,000 XP gained in an average play session that is 10,000 durability, then factor in Unbreaking and you get up to 40,000 uses or 3,575 hits in full armor restored - and you never need to enchant, make anvils, or mine diamonds ever again. I've tested it a bit in 1.9 and most of the XP I got just went to filling up my XP bar - I'd eventually reach hundreds if not thousands of levels since I'd have no reason to ever spend XP). Unlike 1.9 I'd probably just make it obtainable through normal enchanting since it isn't as powerful.
I've done a bit more in my secondary world in my "tech mods" profile.
I've nearly finished my house. I have the floor and walls built, tables (from BiblioCraft) to place things on (a table can hold a single item) as well as to place lights on to (I'm using the candle-like torches from Chisel 2), and plenty of drawers (from Storage Drawers), shelves (from BiblioCraft), and chests for storage. Currently, I only need to finish the roof. I'm going to put in a basement, but I'm not considering that part of having the house "complete".
As I've noted before, once I have my house finished I'm going to switch from peaceful mode to easy mode. I usually play on peaceful mode, so playing on easy mode will give me monsters to fight, hopefully making things more interesting. I'm playing on easy instead of medium or hard since I don't want things to be too stressful; for that same reason, I'm also playing with the game rule "keepInventory" turned on (I don't drop my items or experience when I die) and the game rule "mobGriefing" turned off (creeper explosions and ghast fireballs don't damage blocks, endermen can't pick up blocks, and mobs can't trample farmland). (This is cheating, but I'm not too strict about that kind of thing. )
I've planted a bunch of sugar cane along a lake shore. There's not much to that right now, though.
I've started digging the tunnel that will lead into my column mine. While digging, I ran into a cave; however, the tunnel I'm digging ran into a tunnel in the cave (instead of a large chamber), so it's not a huge deal to handle that.
The entrance to the tunnel (the above-ground part) also has a shelter built over it, mostly to prevent mobs from getting in. It's nothing special, but it does have a big oak door (from Big Doors), which is kind of nice.
I'm probably going to plant crops once I have my house finished, as well. I'll start with gysahl greens (from ChocoCraft) and wheat.
That's the story thus far!

The last few weeks I been back at my 2nd base in the Mesa ... and demolishing it! I was never truly happy with the design of the base itself, i was trying something different at the time, but now as i'm firmly ensconced at my Ice Spikes and Ocean Monument bases, I've decided to demolish this one. I have rather a large underground area and surrounding buldings which i'll keep, i'll just leave the moat and build something else later. All the blocks now stored in double chests in one of my empty animal pens ...
Spent about 20 minutes planting mushrooms on mycellium then using bonemeal to grow them and then used a silk touch pickaxe to get the blocks. Took about 4 hours of walking to find my first mushroom biome though.

I've started digging the tunnel that will lead into my column mine. While digging, I ran into a cave; however, the tunnel I'm digging ran into a tunnel in the cave (instead of a large chamber), so it's not a huge deal to handle that.
The entrance to the tunnel (the above-ground part) also has a shelter built over it, mostly to prevent mobs from getting in. It's nothing special, but it does have a big oak door (from Big Doors), which is kind of nice.
I'm probably going to plant crops once I have my house finished, as well. I'll start with gysahl greens (from ChocoCraft) and wheat.
That's the story thus far!
The source of my intention isn't really crime prevention; my intention is prevention of the lie! Yeah, welcome to the Scatman's world!

As for me, I'm starting a Modded YouTuber SMP with a friend, and I'm starting a YouTube with my brother.
The last few weeks I been back at my 2nd base in the Mesa ... and demolishing it! I was never truly happy with the design of the base itself, i was trying something different at the time, but now as i'm firmly ensconced at my Ice Spikes and Ocean Monument bases, I've decided to demolish this one. I have rather a large underground area and surrounding buldings which i'll keep, i'll just leave the moat and build something else later. All the blocks now stored in double chests in one of my empty animal pens ...
