Makes as much sense as anything else in this game. Maybe a little over complicated for it's just water, but whatever.

Let me guess -- Someone stole your sweetroll.

(In English, what about guards? Iron golems?)

Most companies do it anyways without telling us, so consider that.

Lets all go over to that video and give him some dislikes and mean comments! I created 5 youtube accounts so I could dislike it 5 times

More pathetic than him.

All I hate is the "It takes two to start a fight"
IT DOES NOT.
If someone's trying to get in a fight with me, I should have the right to hit the living **** out of them all I want.

Quote from StephennJF

Hahaha video works fine on my end :wink.gif:

Anyone know how to mechanically make snow golems?

I don't think you can actually. :/

I built a nice cobblestone house (or so I thought it was) with a roof and everything. Even some torches! Back then though, Creepers could see through walls and I was raped by like 4 creepers 1 skelly and 2 zombies. It was awful. I was practically crying at the sight of my destroyed house.

My house is currently very bland. It's all square. So, what would make a good floor pattern? This is a new world so no Gold and Diamond blocks.

Is it too much to scroll down?

Millénaire forums for more in-depth discussions than here:

Millénaire 7.0 open beta! Millénaire 7.0 introduces two great new features: a reworked Norman culture and the construction of a massive, end-game marvel: Notre Dame of the New World! Head to the beta page for all the details and the download link.

Millénaire 6.2 for Minecraft 1.12 available!

Millénaire is now officially updated to 1.12.2. Download the new version on www.millenaire.org!

Millénaire is a single- and multi-player mod for Minecraft. It aims to fill the "emptyness" of single-player worlds by adding NPC villages to it, with loose 11th-century Norman, North Indian and Mayans themes and additional cultures planned.

Villages are populated with men, women and children of various kinds, who perform tasks such as trading with the player, expending current buildings or improving existing ones, cultivating crops such as wheat in Norman villages and rice in Indian ones, crafting tools and powerful amulets, etc. As the village expends, the number of villagers increases as couples have children who grow up into new adults.

Help villages grow by trading with them and be rewarded with unique items such as Normand and Indian food or statues and tapestries to decorate your house with. And if they start liking you enough, they might even build you a house of your own.

Millénaire is available in the following languages: French, English, German, Russian, Polish, Spanish, Czech, Swedish, Dutch, Portuguese, Slovenian, Hungarian, Chinese, Arab, Estonian, Norwegian, Ukrainian (more coming!)

Making new cultures

Since Millénaire 1.4, the bulk of a new culture can be made without code (not just buildings and village types like before, but new NPCs as well). As such I'm interested in player-made cultures to integrate in the main game, provided they fit the general theme of Millénaire of "real" cultures from around the 11th century. Players interested in producing one for Millénaire should PM-me about it. If we agree on the idea, I'll provide support in the form of help on how to mod Millénaire and in the form of whatever new code might be needed (for new items, blocks or good productions), though likely not with the buildings and NPCs themselves. I reserve the right to change anything I might not like in a culture I'm shipping with the mod itself, but in practice I intend to leave as much of a free hand as possible to culture designers.Contribution welcome, it helps make Millénaire a rich game!


See what they are doing and what they need in the villages' centres.

Help Wanted

- There is a lot of content to fill up in the Millénaire Wiki, feel free to help: http://millenaire.org/wiki/
- Female and children sounds
- It would be very useful if people who have been playing for a while could post detailed accounts of how they play Millénaire, what they like/don't like, what their goals are when playing, etc. I need more comprehensive feedback, not just small reactions to individual features.
- New lone buildings: the more different kind of lone buildings (or variations of the same kind), the better. People wanting to do lone buildings in the same style as the existing ones are welcomed. You can post your creation in the thread, preferably with a screenshot. I'll add those I think fit in Millénaire.

Sophisticated Wolves

What is Sophisticated Wolves? It's a mod that aims to improve wolves in the games through a series of gameplay tweaks, AI improvements, and added features. The focus is not to have overpowered items or crazy abilities, but rather balanced additions that make sense in the world of MC. Essentially, wolves should be able to better respond to your actions and take care of themselves, so you don't have to consider them a liability when mining, exploring or fighting.

NightKosh has taken over updating the mod using Forge, check out his page for more!

Download
Requires ModLoader! NOTE: If playing on 1.6.2 it is recommended that you install this Modloader patch by acomputerdog or use Forge Modloader.

Installation Instructions:
1. In your /.minecraft/versions folder make a copy of the 1.6.2 folder
2. Name this folder something like "1.6.2 Mods" or "1.6.2 Wolves"
3. Open the new folder, and rename 1.6.2.jar and 1.6.2.json to match the name you chose in step 2
4. Open the .json file using a text editor like Notepad (or preferably Notepad++)
5. On the first line where is says "id" change 1.6.2 to the name you chose in step 2
6. Save and close the file
7. Install ModLoader (and any patches) in the .jar file
8. Unzip the sophwolves folder
9. Drag the assets folder and all class files into your .jar
10. From the launcher, select Edit Profile and choose your new modded 1.6.2 in the versions drop down menu

This mod modifies the EntityWolf, RenderWolf and EntityAISit files, and uses item IDs 1558-1559.

This mod may NOT be compatible with the following mods:

• Better Than Wolves
• Mo' Creatures

Installing them together may cause bugs or crashes, do so at your own risk.

Features:

Nametags
One of the most oft-requested features, names to differentiate between your pets. Craft a leather Dog Tag and you'll be able to give your pet a proper title (12 chars max). They behave like normal player nametags when standing but are not visible through walls when sitting.

Nameplates will also change color according to the health of your wolf. White = full health, and it gets progressively more red as a wolf's health goes down.
For those who want the recipe:

Breeding
No more accidental breeding, wolves now have a new item to get them in the mood. Feed two tamed wolves a Dog Treat made out of two wheat and a porkchop (raw or cooked) and they'll produce a puppy. Puppies are automatically tamed and will inherit a parent's breed.
For those who want the recipe:

Biome-Specific Wolves
Wolves' appearance will vary depending on the biome they spawn in. Taiga wolves are the classic gray, while forest wolves are light brown. You can also find black and dark brown wolves, but these colors are harder to find than their lighter counterparts.

Extinguishing
Tired of your wolves burning to death? So are they. If they happen to catch on fire, they'll stop and shake to put themselves out.

Creeper Avoidance
Wolves are loyal, not stupid. If they see a Creeper about to explode they'll scatter regardless of what you're doing.

Respawning Wolves
Like ocelots, wolves will spawn sporadically in Taiga and Forest biomes and only become persistent when tamed. This also means they won't stick around if you wander off so be sure to bring bones with you if you're looking for wolves!

Feeding
Wolves will now also gobble down fish and gain the max amount of health whether their meat is cooked or raw. In addition, they will no longer wander around while begging, so you don't have to chase them down trying to feed them.

Attack Pausing/Canceling
Crouching with Shift will make any wolves currently attacking a creature stand still and stop attacking. Holding down Shift for around 5 seconds will cancel their attack entirely, so they don't slaughter your flock of sheep because you accidentally punched them. Wolves will also lose interest in a target if you're far enough away from it when they teleport to you.

Peace of Mining
Wolves will no longer wander around and bump into you when you're mining or on a ladder, instead they'll wait patiently for you to finish (unless you're being attacked by monsters of course).

Evil Detecting Dogs
Though they won't attack Creepers, wolves will growl to alert you if one is nearby.

Tweakable
Want to use a texture pack instead of biome-specific wolves? Don't like wild wolves despawning? Want to set breeding back to default? Change it in the config file, located in your .minecraft/config folder. You can also change the ID numbers of the items if you run into a conflict with other mods.

Miscellaneous Improvements
Smarter teleportation, fire avoidance, more responsive interactions, and many other various bug fixes and tweaks have been made to improve your experience with wolves. Check out the changelog for more detailed notes.

*OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENT*

Hello everyone. As some of you may have noticed, I mysteriously disappeared for the past year, and I apologize for leaving all of you wondering what happened to me. Unfortunately, I have to say that I have abandoned my work on this texture pack. In fact, I am no longer following the development of Minecraft. I am so thankful for all of your dedication since my work first began during the Alpha stages of the game. With that said, I hope you all continue to enjoy this game and the many other texture packs available on this site. If anyone wishes to revive this pack under their own name with updated textures, please feel free to do so. Mixcraft is no longer my project. It belongs to all of you now.

Thank you for everything.

SCREENSHOTS and IMAGES























======================================================================

TOPIC DISCUSSION SYSTEM (I want YOUR opinions!)

This new topic system has been created to get all of your criticisms and ideas into the pack!
Basically: You see something you don't like, you suggest it, we discuss it, I make it better.

Topics must be about a single texture, and can be any block, mob, item, painting, etc...
If there is a texture which you believe needs to be revisited, please post a comment below.

Once we see multiple suggestions, the most common one will be declared the new topic.
While a texture is the topic for discussion, it will become my primary focus for that day.
Any possible variants for the texture will be posted here, and we will agree on a final.

By this method, Mixcraft will be constantly improved and will be almost entirely community driven.
I will also accept any of your own concepts, which could be both random images or complete textures.

======================================================================

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):

Q: If I install this texture pack, will it make my game lag? Also, how high is the resolution?

A: The main Mixcraft HD is 32x32 pixels per block, and Mixcraft Basic is 16x16 pixels. Packs usually range from 16x16 to 128x128, and a few are 256x256. So this pack is fairly low resolution. For this reason, your game will probably not lag from using it, unless you already have a very slow computer.

Q: My compass/watch is broken, netherrack looks like water, and bricks are glitched. How do I fix this?

A: You didn't install the HD Texture Patch correctly, the way I said to do it in the instructions. If following the instructions doesn't work, post a comment describing exactly what you did.

Q: With the HD font, the letters overlap eachother and are out of order. How do I fix this?

A: First follow the "How to Uninstall" instructions included in the pack. Now try to reinstall the pack, but this time make sure that when you run the patcher, the "Hi-Res Font" button IS checked. Then click the "Patch" button. (Note: HD fonts do NOT work with the Optimine mod!)

Q: With the HD font, the spacing between each of the letters is doubled. How do I fix this?

A: The HD font file is NOT compatible with ModLoader Version 4 or any earlier versions. You must go download the latest Version of ModLoader and use that one insead. It must be at least Version 5. (Note: HD fonts do NOT work with the Optimine mod!)

Q: I am on a PC running Windows and can't find the "AppData" folder. How do I find it?

A: AppData is a hidden folder. To see it, click the windows icon on the bottom left of your desktop and open the Control Panel. From there, find and open the "folder options" menu. Under the "view" tab, look for the "hidden files and folders" section. Check the box that says "show hidden files and folders" and click "Apply" at the bottom. Go back to your Master Account folder and you should now be able to see the AppData folder.

Q: After running the patch, I now just get a black screen when I start minecraft. How do I fix this?

A: You didn't install the HD Texture Patch correctly, the way I said to do it in the instructions. If following the instructions doesn't work, post a comment describing exactly what you did.

Q: Why are there no clouds in this pack? Did you forget to put in the cloud texture?

A: There are no clouds because the clouds are the only things that CANT be made a higher definition.
I took them out because they just look like giant squares and they block your view at high altitudes.
If you REALLY want to have clouds, go to the Options and Extras folder and install the "Normal Couds".

Q: Will you ever make a pack higher than 32x32 resolution? Maybe 64x64 or 128x128?

A: The short answer is probably not. I was reluctant to even go past the default resolution at first. This is for three reasons: It looks un-natural to minecraft, it often causes lag, and it's a lot more work.

Q: Can you help me over Xbox live, e-mail, AIM, Skype, or any other forms of messaging?

A: I used to help people over all of these, however many of you began spamming me with messages.
If you REALLY want my help, just post a comment here! ONLY send me a PM if absolutely necessary.
I love to play Xbox with those who wish to, but if you ask about my textures on Xbox, I will ignore you.

My gamertag is Koolwitak32. Please do not abuse this information. This is ONLY if you wish to play with me.
I mostly play Borderlands co-op, GTA IV multiplayer free mode, and Halo Reach custom games.

Got an interesting idea the other day, from a user in my Riddles thread round here. It is this: if I put up a riddle once a month, and give you all a week to solve it, the winner gets a code instantly, regardless of their position on the list. People who have not yet got onto the list are also able to enter, but while I will give at most three hints to people who are on the list, I will not give any hints to those not on the list.

To be honest, it probably isn't that much of a handicap, but I'd prefer to give users on the list already a slight advantage. If you can solve the riddle, you get the code. Simple as that. However, because I like to make it a very tough challenge, I'll not indicate if you're on the right track or not (i.e., I'll only tell you whether you're right or wrong), apart from the three hints (which will be the same three hints for each person).

To avoid clogging up this thread, all answers to the riddle must be PM'd to me. I'd prefer it if each member opened one private conversation with me, and then replied to that each time, rather than drowning the rest of my inbox in new conversations each time they have a new guess. The riddle will be posted in this section of this thread.

Also, you may not go and post this riddle anywhere else in order to try and get help from others who use that site. Last time, someone posted it to a Yahoo! Answers site, but posting it to any site or forum is a violation of the rules. You must not use the Internet to get help for these. You may gather a few friends or family (as in, people you know outside of the Internet) and try to solve it together, but once more the riddle must not be spread around the Internet, at least until the competition is over.

If I hear of anyone doing it again, that person will be disqualified from all future competitions of this nature. We can and will find out if you do. The Internet is a very easy place to trace people. If the person who did it is on the list, their entry will be removed. I cannot abide cheaters. Cheating will not help you. Do it fairly or not at all.

You are all forbidden from posting this riddle anywhere on the Internet for any purpose whatsoever until the competition has ended for this riddle. I am keeping a private list of the riddles, the associated hints and the answers for each (which will be released either after the one-week period, or as soon as someone guesses the answer), so that you may confound your friends and anyone else you meet on the Internet in the event I come up with an incredibly difficult riddle. If you want any of the previous riddles, you need only ask.

IF YOU FAIL TO READ THE RULES CONCERNING THE RIDDLE (YEAH, THAT TEXT JUST UP THERE), DO NOT BOTHER SENDING ANY GUESSES. THE RULES ARE BINDING, AND I WILL NOT TOLERATE THOSE WHO BREAK THEM, KNOWINGLY OR NOT.

By clicking the spoiler and revealing the riddle, you acknowledge you have read and understand my rules. Break them at your own peril. I shall have no trouble tracking you down, for the other hopeful guessers you have wronged will not be too pleased with you either. If you want to clarify the rules, PM me.

Mojang have begun selling Minecraft in stores in the United States! You can now buy Minecraft "prepaid cards" which contain a gift code and can be used to buy Minecraft. If you're unable to buy Minecraft over the Internet, and you live in the US, you can go into a Target, Walmart or Best Buy store and purchase a copy. More information here:

One thing I have been seeing a fair bit of is people picking at little inconsequential details in others' posts. Don't be tempted to do this. It only starts arguments, which we do not need. If you do, however, find something in another person's post or you find some solid evidence that they're lying (or just have some suspicions about the request), feel free to PM either myself, or Sgt. Traveler about it.

If you want a gift code, there are only two requirements - you must not already have bought Minecraft (requesting codes for other people is OK, but they'll need to contact me through PM or e-mail to prove they actually exist), and you must also have a good reason why you cannot buy the game (whether it's financial trouble, your parents won't let you buy stuff over the Internet, you don't have any money, etc).

Each fortnight, no more than one person will be added to the list... but also that if no requests show a reasonable display of effort and care, there is the possibility the nobody may be added that week. In that case, I will simply not add anyone to the list, and the list cap effectively goes down by one.

I have recently seen an increase in people PMing or emailing me, requesting gift codes. Do not request via PM or e-mail. Please, just post on this thread. It is a hundred times easier to just check the thread for requests rather than having to sort through PMs and such. If you have trouble with posting or posts not appearing, talk to a moderator or administrator, or post in the Forum Help section.

Do not contact me through PM or e-mail unless absolutely necessary, you are considering donating/helping out, or there is something else you wish to discuss privately.

You may, however, contact me via PM if you wish to talk to me privately, but that should not (for the most part) be necessary. In order for me to consider you for a gift code, you must reply with a request for one. I will keep a list in the OP with people who've asked and haven't yet received their codes, and I'll also keep a list of people I bought codes for.

The gift code will be sent to you via PM, unless you specifically ask otherwise.

There will be no scamming or anything like that involved, you don't have to sign up for anything. This is a free gift I am offering out of generosity. I am hoping some others will follow suit, but we will see. For now, it's just me. Sgt. Traveler is our resident helper when am not around and he'll be able to answer just about any question (although keep in mind that he is not a moderator, so if there's any rule-breaking, just report it). Feel free to ask questions here, or via PM, whichever you prefer.

If any others want to buy codes for people, they can PM me about it (or post here) and they can buy codes on a predetermined basis (or just one for a particular person they choose).
They themselves will send the code to the recipient, and I will ask for screenshot proof (from their minecraft.net or account.mojang.com account page) that they have given the code to the person before removing them from the "Waiting List".

I will remove members as soon as I send out codes to them. I am very busy these days, and frequently forget to remove people, so I've decided to remove them as soon as I've sent them the PM containing the gift code. If I see that a member who is next in line for receiving a code has been inactive for at least a month, I will simply remove them. This is moving at snail-pace as it is, and I have no desire to make people who are willing to follow my rules wait any longer than necessary.

If a person has not redeemed their code after a week's time of sending the PM, I'll give that code to another. This applies to active people as well, if they suddenly become inexplicably inactive. This is simply to keep things moving smoothly. In other words, check every few weeks where you are on the list, maybe every week if you're near the top to avoid being passed by.

Now that that's all explained, I ask one last time, please do not troll, flame, spam or otherwise degrade the quality of this topic. If you have ideas for improving my methods, you may suggest them. Sarcastic/Non-Serious/Degrading ideas will not be tolerated. Thanks.

One more thing. I myself will be buying codes on a basis of one per week. I'm not a millionaire.

Don't get annoyed if it takes a while. I may make exceptions and buy several codes at once on occasion, but don't count on it too often. I no longer have a job, so you guys are lucky my government has unemployment support payments.

If you wish to request a code for another person besides yourself, they must contact me if at all possible in any way. Either by e-mail (joelpfrancis[AT]gmail[DOT]com) or through PM on the forum, but they'll need to contact me. If they have not contacted me after several weeks, they may be removed when I next tidy up the list.
If special occasions arise (unable to contact me for some time, etc.) and I am notified, I may make exceptions.

All gift codes given through this will come from my own Minecraft/Mojang account (Vexx32 | [email protected])

Share and Enjoy!

You are in no way obligated to use these guidelines as any more than a guide, but don't complain if we tell you to look at these, as we will often have good reason for doing so. With many thanks to Enquent, who devised the majority of this, these are the guidelines for posting a request for a gift code.

N.B.: It is not necessary to include the headings. I would recommend you avoid doing so, but if you wish to, feel free.

== Short introduction ==
1-2 sentences about how you found out about this thread, how you found out about Minecraft and what you thought of it. You may include mention of mods, custom maps, texture packs, or anything else you have found thus far.

== Request body ==
3-5 sentences in paragraph form, within which you should include your age, why you are unable to purchase Minecraft, your financial or life situation that doesn't allow you to, other possible ways you've attempted to get Minecraft. Are you in school, university/college, high school? Do you live with your parents/on your own/with friends/family? Are you barely making ends meet living on your own?

== Closing == (Not required)
A polite closing, a 'thank you for reading', followed by your forum username or in-game name never hurt and looks nice making the whole post seem complete and finished.

== Further Information == (Not Required)
How many requests you have submitted thus far, one or two of your previous requests (not in a quote - preferably in a spoiler tag), and any other information not mentioned above you think we should know.

## Note ##
Please do your best to use clear English, with proper spelling and grammar. I am able to translate other languages using a machine translation and get the general gist of it, but it's a poor subsitute for what you yourself can probably write in most cases. If you need assistance in common spelling or grammatical errors, I will simply direct you to these two excellent comics which address the common problems we see around the internet these days:

http://theoatmeal.co...ics/misspelling (commonly misspelled words)
http://theoatmeal.com/comics/semicolon (how to use a semicolon)

The length of each section above is only a guide and you may expand upon the amount of writing in each, but refrain from shortening them, as the guide above gives minimum amounts to mitigate the amount of simple, one-line requests.

## Formatting & How to Use it ##
I have noticed that some people have taken to using a small amount of formatting. I have no problem with this, and I do encourage it, for it makes your main points stand out and improves the readability, but only if used in good taste.
Do not:

• Use colors like yellow or a light grey that are difficult to read on the forum's white-grey background.
• Split or break words with formatting (e.g., freedom). This breaks the flow of the sentence and makes it very confusing to read.
• Format everything. Doing so just makes it harder to read, and more annoying. Sure, it stands out, but it's like shouting at someone incessantly. Nobody likes it.
• Use a non-standard font size for your entire post, or a large part of it. Make sure it is of a readable size!
• Use excessive amounts of paragraphs. They should be used to group sentences together that share an idea or focus.
• Start a new paragraph for every single sentence or every two sentences.

Do:

• Use formatting to emphasize your main points.
• Use formatting only as required.
• Use a variety of colours, if you feel the need. It helps break the monotonous look of a post and makes it easier to read. Not necessary, so don't go overboard.
• Take note of anything you could yourself use that you notice in the requests I quote, and use it well.
• Read over your request to double-check that it is readable and easy to understand.
• Use paragraphs to break your post into sections, as outlined in the main Guidelines section.

The best way to know if your request is formatted properly is to read through it yourself. If you find anything that makes it difficult to read, either change it or just take out the formatting.

This will, of course, be mainly applicable for those requesting a gift code for themselves, but if you are requesting one for someone else, merely modify the template as needed.

Once again, this is not required, but it will help make your request look 'professional' and easy to read. Two pages of poorly written requests means nobody gets added to the list!

In addition, anyone found to have copied any part of someone else's request is instantly disqualified from my consideration. The name of the game is effort here, and I will not tolerate people stealing someone else's story.

Words have power, and I will not permit them to be stolen.

This list is subject to change. Those members who have requested to defer to others will remain in their respective positions in the list until they notify me that they would like to be the next recipient (because by that time they'll probably be at the top of the list). Also, any members requesting codes for other people and paying a decent portion of the cost will be prioritised.A proposed alternative is to redirect links/videos or such of your creations (maps, mods, texture packs, etc.) to my adf.ly or adcraft.co account. I'll keep track of how much money it brings in, and bump you up the list accordingly. If you are interested in something like this, PM me.

Feel free to make your own banners, but try to avoid confusing people; don't put things on your banners that don't match with what I do, or else we end up with silly arguments and lots of confused people. Don't make false claims, and do not misrepresent me, please.

These are the people who have generously linked their mod, map or texture pack through my adfly or adcraft account in order to donate to me, usually because they do not have enough spare money laying around to donate directly. This is a great way to do it, because every little bit counts, and will ensure that adf.ly/adcraft pay out the donations each month.

"If someone is removed from the list by their own request, am I allowed to take their spot?"
No. If someone requests their own removal from the list, you may not take their spot. It is unfair to just about everyone else on the list who has been waiting. There is one exception that I will allow. This is if the person no longer wishes to be on the list wants to give up their spot to another, instead of me simply removing their name. This exception exists for two reasons. First, because it is a request from them directly, without others clamouring to take the spot. Second, because it would amount to the same thing as them not telling me and then just giving the code to any other person (typically a friend or sibling).

"My request was quoted, but I'm not on the list!"
If your request was quoted, congratulations. You've submitted a good-quality request. This doesn't automatically mean you're going to get onto the list, but it does mean you have a good chance. I only pick one person out each week to go on the list, so that everyone can have a chance to post a request. If you were quoted but not added, then please re-post your request. Do not quote your original/previous request; the forum doesn't like nested quotes, and removes them. This can make it confusing, and also means that I can't show off your request again properly. Either amend your original request, or put it somewhere in your post with any additional information you wish to include.

Back to Frequently Asked Questions

"Why haven't you quoted my request?"
I only quote the best requests, in order to show everyone what has a high chance of getting into the list, but I read every request. If you weren't quoted, then it generally just means your request wasn't good enough. If you think I have in fact overlooked you, then feel free to let me know; either just post again or PM me, preferably with the request included. I do my best to read each and every post on this thread, so it is very unlikely that I miss any, but it can and occasionally does happen.

Back to Frequently Asked Questions

"I think someone is lying in their request! What do I do?"
PM either myself, Sgt. Traveler or Enquent about it. Quote the suspect post, and give your reasons and/or evidence against it. Be clear and concise. If we decide your suspicion is well-founded, we will investigate. It is preferable you do not pick apart someone else's request in the thread here, unless we have specifically asked for public opinion on the matter, since it can quite easily start a mud-slinging contest.

Back to Frequently Asked Questions

"How long will this take?"
Let's do the math. I myself buy usually one code per fortnight, whilst Enquent typically buys around two codes each week (Enquent's had to stop buying codes for the moment due to a change of circumstances). That's around 2-3 codes every week.The list is around 430 long, so we'll work out how long it takes for you to get from bottom to top. 430 divided by 3 gives 143 weeks. Divide by 4 to get 36 months. 65 divided by 12 gives around 3 years. So yeah, long wait... :/

We do what we can to shorten it, but it got out of hand a while back, and we haven't managed to totally reign it in again just yet.

N.B.: This is no longer accurate, but it should still give a rough idea. I'll come back and update it every so often, but till then I'm sure a little math never hurt anyone.

N.B.: This is no longer anywhere near accurate. I am currently buying codes on my own, and can only presently afford a code every two weeks. It's going to be a long wait, short of me suddenly getting rich.

Back to Frequently Asked Questions

"What do I do if I didn't get quoted/picked?"
If you weren't quoted, your request was not overlooked. It simply means your request needs a bit of work. Read the guidelines and see what you can improve on. If you were quoted and not chosen to go on the list, see if you can add anything to your request and make it clearer and more concise. A little formatting may help, but use it wisely. Re-post your request to be considered for the next week's addition to the list. Only one person from each week's requests will be added, and I do not dig back beyond a week (not beyond my last decision post).

Back to Frequently Asked Questions

"Can/Should I re-post my request?"
If I have added someone to the list, you are required to re-post your request if you still want to be taken into consideration. If you were not quoted, you will need to improve your request, and even if you were, it's probably a good idea to try to refine your request a little more. Read over the guidelines, and perhaps add a touch of careful formatting.

First and foremost, just post on this thread. I read every reply that is posted, and I reply to almost all of them where a reply is warranted.If you feel the need to contact me privately, you can also PM me here on the forums, or email me. I can also be contacted on SporeBase Forums, where I am known by the same name. My email address is [email protected]. If you wish to contact me about helping me out with this, please PM me. I will answer your questions and we should be able to make some sort of arrangement. Since Mojang has recommended circumventing the restriction with multiple accounts, I'll probably give each person access to one "gift code" account at a time, through which they'll buy codes. This way, everyone knows they're going through me, and the people helping can keep their 5 gift codes on their account for their close friends and such.

bnvdarklord has kindly made a nifty little tool you can use to keep track of the list without needing to come here all the time. It displays the title of the thread and the total number of list entries, along with the list itself. It also allows you to search or filter the list to find a certain username. Download it here:http://www.mediafire...6w5oltxvbv42n0o

Awesomeslayerg has set up a Steam group for this effort. I myself do not largely use Steam, but if the group gets enough members, I'm sure I'll find some use for it!
