    posted a message on What has been the most stupidest way you have died on Minecraft?

    I have a tendency to make really long tunnels for mines. I was walking back after a mining trip and I wasn't looking and (mind you, it's a wide tunnel) fell into a lava pit that I hadn't yet covered. Second goes to a time when I went AFK while outside and I hadn't paused the game. You can probably guess what happened to me...

    I used to watch YOGSCAST Lewis and Simon for their minecraft content. Obviously, they stopped. I used to enjoy watching watching their Gmod TTT content and even that got stale after a while.

    posted a message on Why do you love minecraft so much?

    I like Minecraft because, from a creative standpoint, it's like Legos, but better.


    A ) You only have so many Legos. With Minecraft, you have an infinite amount.

    B ) There's only so much space upon which you can build. With Minecraft, your allotted space is... almost too much.

    C ) Legos are subject to the laws of physics, such as gravity, whereas Minecraft blocks aren't.

    This is more a feature targeted toward people like me, who've been playing the game for almost 5 years, and know the game pretty well: The ability to turn those annoying (for me, anyway) tutorial cards off, and those "new recipe unlocked" cards as well.

    posted a message on When might you use cheats in survival mode?

    When I cheat, it's usually to get a good amount of cobblestone (at the beginning of the game, when it's a pain to get a decent amount of) and to set the world spawn at a spot where I'm gonna build. And, if you count it as such, I use Peaceful quite often, though I'm glad they gave the option to lock difficulty to stop temptation.

    They're just symmetrical caves. I always explore mineshafts when possible, even if they are easy to get lost in.

    posted a message on How did you choose your username?

    When it comes to the forum, "SheepInTheCity" comes from my Minecraft username at the time, which is inspired by the tune "Night In The City" by Electric Light Orchestra. I just replaced the word "Night" with "Sheep" (my favorite in-game animal) and voila... we have my name. This account used to be called KlockKid12Jr. That came about because I lost the password to my first account (KlockKid12) and couldn't be bothered to go through the whole "forgot-your-password" thing; instead I opted for creating a new account entirely.


    As for Minecraft, I've had quite a few. Please read the spoiler down below:



    KlockKid12: My very first username that I used when I bought the game on August 16, 2013. I used to be obsessed with clocks during this time, and I had just turned 12 (Aug 16 is my birthday) so me and my mom came up with this name.


    Wizmilo: Back in the dark ages of 2014 (I was weird), I used to frequent a chatroom called Pokemon Showdown, on a (now defunct) server called "Frost". My username (one of dozens) was Wizeardreaux (Pronounced "Wizard Roe"; not sure where the wild E in "Wizeard" came from). Also, a cat who was very close to me (he was my bud since I was a baby) had just passed away from a bad case of laryngitis. His name was Milo. I can't remember what led him to do this, but a "friend" of mine (he was really my sister's friend) came up with the name "Wizmilo". And it stuck. When the ability to change names rolled around, this was the name I chose.


    SheepInTheCity: I shouldn't have to explain how I came up with this.


    RockyRacco: I ended up using this name three times. I wanted a name that had something to do with the song "Rocky Raccoon" by the Beatles. But knowing that "RockyRaccoon" was already taken (combined with a desire to avoid having numbers in my name) I came up with "RockyRacco." It's one of my favorite names, behind "SheepInTheCity".


    MovingMan: I really don't like this one. I wanted a name that was inspiring somehow. I was inspired by the songs "Babaji" by Supertramp and "Bangladesh" by George Harrison. I don't remember how I came up with this name.


    CitySheep: This, unfortunately, was a half-arsed name that I came up with on a whim.


    I used RockyRacco again here....


    RudyC4t: Have you ever heard of the Nintendo game "Animal Crossing"? Well, I named myself after a character in this game who's called... you guessed it, Rudy. He is a cat. (I was also partially inspired by the song "Rudy" by Supertramp)


    Used SheepInTheCity again.


    LeSkvid: Wanted a name that that had something to do with squids, since there was this cute squid skin I wanted to use. Put "The Squid" through French and a Russian accent, and you will get this name.


    I used RockyRacco AGAIN. It also happens to be my current name as of the time of writing.
