A constant stream of updates isn't necessarily a good thing. Id rather Notch and his team take their time and produce quality updates than spew out a bunch of random garbage to appease the whiners. Take Farmville as an example, that game updates every few days it seems, and look at the crap they come up with, simply awful!
Oddly enough, I find that I die less often with more mobs around, because when there was only a creeper once in a blue moon, it would get me... EVERY BLOODY TIME >.<
MrTorus, why don't you just stop being a fail troll and do something productive.
It would be pretty funny to see this happen. Maybe sometimes you spawn normally, fall from the clouds or end up in hell.
It doesn't have to be religious >.>
There's a big difference between a troll and a buzzkill.
I agree with mr.Tortus, being forcefully taken to hell would be a huge pain in the **** and would make the game A LOT less fun.
I could totally picture some sort of zerg-esque bug creatures swarming out of that hive thing in the top left!! Can you imagine being zerg rushed in Minecraft =O
Hmm... It's a good idea, but I have no idea how the gears would make the platform move, wouldn't it just spin around?
the gears would be placed vertically, not horizontally, so no it wouldn't spin; the elevator platform would have some notches on the side for the gears to catch onto, gears turning clockwise would push the platform down and counterclockwise ones would pull it up...... this doesn't sound so complex to me....

I think gears would have made A LOT more sense than redstone.......I also like the idea of requiring power sources, rather than having the power come from a redstone torch (which never really made sense to me)
Are you serious? It never really made sense. You are joking aren't you? If you are - which you must be - then I apologise for the following outburst.
WHY THE HELL DOES MINECRAFT HAVE TO MAKE SENSE!!!? Since when has game logic been at all reliable, if you want the game to have realistic circuitry etc. then go make a real circuit, or play a 'fun' educational physics game. Minecraft is a game about a man who upon birth must instantly begin his fight for survival; first he collects wood, using his bare fists to literally punch through the trees. He then must craft a wooden pickaxe which, according to the spatial physics of the game has a 3 metre long pick on a 2 metre long pole. With this wooden pick he must carve a cave out of a mountain, and then using the same wooden pick mine coal. In the later stages of the game this man can perform such amazing feats as collecting boiling hot lava in iron buckets, and creating water falls that literally fall from the sky.
I think my signature sums it up perfectly, the game makes no sense already and we still love it, so the argument that we should change things so that they make more sense in my opinion is a ridiculous one.
I wasn't complaining about redstone being unrealistic, I should have made that more clear I guess.... My problem with it is that A: it's confusing, gears would be a much more simple concept to grasp than weird redstone torch reversal switch thingies B: Gears would fit the minecraft theme more than redstone IMO (not that minecraft really even has a theme).
And jeese, aggressive much wilks? you've been falming nearly every post! calm down!
There were gears then they got changed to redstone.

Also, redstone seems to be used mainly for turning blocks on or off, gears would be used making objects move.
Windmill powered mineshaft elevator anyone? =P

Personally, I think something like "Glowstone" would sound more minecrafty.

Actually, block entities and physics would be an EXTREMELY important update!
