    I think you just have a corrupted world. Try rolling back to and older version and see if that works.
    The only backup I have was the one I made before I started messing around with MCedit, so it's already corrupted. Guessing I might just be screwed, then? Unless there's a way to fix it

    posted a message on Trying to open a world, get "Building Terrain" then main menu or very few loaded chunks
    My issue is basically all in the title. I was playing fine on this world earlier today, but now when I open it I get "Building Terrain" then it takes me to the main menu screen. Sometimes it will take me into the game after a few seconds, but then only a few nearby chunks are loaded and I can't break blocks or activate pressure plates (blocks come back and plates don't respond). Eventually my fps drops to the point where I can't even pause the game and I have to end the process.
    I've tried searching and it seems like people have had the same issue, but never actually found/posted a solution.
    I don't get a crash log unless I try to open the world again when I'm taken back to the menu. I have a feeling that crash is related to me trying to open the world again while it's already kind of trying to do that. Either way, here's that log:

    I'm guessing something in the world is corrupt, but I don't know what it is or how to find that out. I can also play on other worlds just fine, so it's not the whole game that's messed up. I've also force updated a lot. By the way, I'm on Snapshot 13w04a, and I made sure to install that before loading the world after the force update.
    I've also tried messing around with MCedit to solve the problem. I could add blocks and they would appear when I loaded the world, but it made no difference. I also tried deleting my ~100 cows that were nearby but that didn't help. Any help or ideas would be appreciated.

    posted a message on Do you like the new way bonemeal works?
    The nerf isn't a bad idea, but it could be done better. While plants have the green particles around them from the bonemeal, they should just have much better chances of growing/advancing to the next step in their development. That way you could bonemeal a couple seeds and you might get lucky and have some go up several stages while others might only go up one or two. It would just increase the chances of the plant growing when it does the "Am I gonna grow?" checks.

    posted a message on New generated structures?
    It would only make sense to keep quartz in the nether, but I don't know how they could fit a bright white block in with tons of red/dark blocks. Maybe if they only spawned sticking out of large enough lava lakes?
    Another issue with this is that it could make quartz (which is already pretty common) ridiculously easy to acquire. Think of making a house out of iron blocks, that's a lot of iron. It would be ridiculous if they made buildings out of any of the other resource blocks. If they made it so you couldn't make quartz back out of the blocks then it might be fine.

    posted a message on Trying to join a server on the same network, timing out
    My brother and I are trying to play together, but every time I try to join his server (LAN or not) I spawn in on a pillar of darkness, falling into the endless void. Looks like this:

    This goes on for a minute or two until I'm disconnected and it says "Timed out". We both figure it might be something to do with our connection rather than the game, but it can't hurt to ask. So is this the game's fault or our connection's, and how might we fix it?
    EDIT: It works if he joins my own LAN world. Probably some hovering spirits just cursing our cables.

    All houses are terrible. If you were to line all the houses up in order of quality, they would all be stacked on top of each other because they are all equally terrible, being the worst that they can be.

    posted a message on Seeds always generate slightly different worlds for me. Bug?
    I'm pretty sure tree, grass and other plant generation is still random, but all of the terrain should be in the same place (ie stone, dirt, etc)

    posted a message on Burning trees with fire
    If this were added, they would need to make it a relatively low chance for the wood to turn to charcoal, otherwise we wouldn't be able to clear out forests/jungles with a good ol' forest fire. Having every log turn into charcoal that easily would also make it way too easy to get huge amounts of fuel. Why should I bother going underground and looking for coal when this jungle tree could just as easily be a quick stack of the stuff?

    posted a message on Prank Thread
    I had a good time scaring some of my less up-to-date friends on our server. They didn't know about invisibility potions, so I drank one and threw on a pumpkin and chased them around awhile. Another time I filled up bottom of a friend's house with water, but he didn't fix it. He just started using boats to get around inside.

    Why would anyone oppose this? If he manages to find the time to play some minecraft (and of course record it all so I can watch it), then that would be great. He must have some small amount of free time.

    I don't really mind it all that much that creepers drop disk 11, but considering how it's a spooky-noise track instead of music like all the others, it would have been nice to have it in a more spooky kind of place. Like others have said, dungeons, abandoned mineshafts, and strongholds would have all been good places to put them, especially since there are sounds of frantic digging in the track.

    posted a message on Anyone feel a bit uneasy with the Anvil repairing? Just a bit?
    Yeah, the crazy high experience costs balance it out pretty well. My only issue with the anvil is that the renaming part of it doesn't really make a whole lot of sense. Why does that ability fall to an anvil, of all things? Seems like it's a completely separate feature from the main purpose of it (repairing/combining enchantments) and it would make more sense to have another item dedicated specifically to that (maybe a lectern?)
    I'm still alright with the renaming being a part of the anvil, but I think I'd prefer a separate thing for that job.

    posted a message on *NEW BLOCK* Anvils! Falling Anvils *Confirmed* also to rebuild and rename tools. Dinnerbone tweet.
    So they get more cracked with use, but do they eventually disappear? I feel like that may be unnecessary, considering the high prices both for making them and actually using them. If the cracks are just for looks, fantastic!
