    posted a message on How old are people who play beta?
    I'm 15, but I've pretty much given up on my age level. At least at my school. For those who think "wow, what a jerk" please explain why I had to explain where Africa was to one of my classmates. That same classmate follows the 17 year old that has failed 9th grade earth science like three times. It's nice to know that there are some more people my age who are sensible, at least from what I've seen.

    I'm told that computers use cookies to store information, mostly with an internet browser.
    I usually cram a few oreos into my CD tray to keep it running smoothly.

    I must sig this.

    OT: it really depends. I've heard of some people with awesome gaming rigs who couldn't handle minecraft, but some people with old computers can handle it well. I recently got a new computer and upgraded it, not sure of the specs right now, as im not at it at the moment, but I play on normal and fast (I like the leaves better) and get around 100-200 fps. I guess I'm just lucky though.

    At about 3:37 I saw diamonds! Right next to the lava in the top middle of the screen, on the left.

    Finished this yesterday, didn't get to post till now. I must say, I had a very good time playing this map! I'm hoping to see the next version out soon! The only thing bad that happened was not your fault. When I was at the library, I decided to take a break. I saved and quit, and when I came back, I was somehow dead. The armor was gone, and that really annoyed me during the lava room, I think level 19. I kind of instinctively cooled off the lava with the water. Then died. Maybe at the spawn room you could put some more armor? Or would that be too cheap?

    posted a message on Minecraft crashes after logging in?
    Earlier today, i have been able to play Minecraft with absolutely no problem. Just recently, though, my computer started getting a bad internet connection. Normally this isn't a problem, so i just start up Minecraft again and pressed Play Offline. It goes to the Mojang Specifications screen and says


    Minecraft has crashed!

    posted a message on worst death/scare in minecraft
    This may not sound too scary, and it is also very short, but it sure did scare me when it happened.
    A couple of days ago, before the update, I was playing on my secondary world, and saved and quit in my house. This may not sound bad at all, but my floor is like
    :Notch:
    :Glass: :Glass: :Glass: :Glass: :Glass:
    :Lava: :Lava: :Lava: :Lava: :Lava:

    And, well, I kind of glitched down, through the glass, and lost all of my equipment.

    Edit- meant to put that going onto the world, seeing a red screen asking me to respawn and after doing so, no items anywhere, is not very fun

    posted a message on Your most annoying and/or your favorite creeper moment?
    My most annoying creeper moment was when i was starting my first ever world. I go through all of the normal things, getting wood, finding a good place to make my house, etc. and I manage to find a cool looking area to make my home. stepping into the shadow of where I was to start building, I went into my inventory to make a toolbench and when i was almost done i heard a SSSSSSS. i had watched a couple of tutorial videos so i knew what it was and what it did. I thought OH SHI-- when it blew up. luckily i didnt die so i finished up my workbench and started to make a pickaxe with it. again i hear a SSSSSSS and i was blown up. For the second time.

    My favorite creeper moment was in that same file. i was down deep, probably around 5 blocks away from bedrock, and carefully making my way around, placing torches everywhere. from in front of me i see a creeper, and i had never been able to kill one before, so i started to freak out. it got close to me, started to hiss, and i backed off a bit, just enough so i wouldnt get hurt, and it blew up. I placed a couple more torches and looked in the hole and saw some Diamond. in that trip it was the only vein of diamond i found, but i came up to the surface with 5.

    :SSSS: :SSSS:
    :SSSS: :Diamond:

    Post your own creeper moments, whether theey may be good or bad, here.

    Started playing this like 2 days ago.. I lost count of how many days it's been, but I will post pics at some point.

    Day one: I cut down the tree and got one sapling. Planted it and descended into my little burrow to mine through the night.

    Day like three I can't remember: decided to make a 5/5 mine shaft going down. Getting a surplus of tres. Have had tons of coal for a while.

    Day 7: stopped planting trees. Have begun to replace sand with dirt.

    Day 8 have resulted to burning the leaves of the trees down so that i wouldn't get saplings. I have like 20 in my chest. Started building a castle.

    Day 10: castle complete. No idea what to do now. I guess I could look for like diamond or iron.

    Only deaths have been from falling from m picture post thing. Getting boring without mobs
