A very important issue not mentioned here is that prior to Beta 1.6 ores are much rarer in negative coordinates, with the southwest quadrant having the most amounts (note that this is relative to the movement of the sun, which used to rise in what is now the north; in newer versions +x, +z is to the southeast):
https://gaming.stackexchange.com/questions/21705/do-positive-coordinate-locations-give-more-ore-in-minecraft/21706#21706
Otherwise, this guide is entirely applicable to older versions (and in fact the data they use came from release 1.1 so it is extremely outdated for modern versions, but the principles mentioned apply to any version); the best level to mine at is also y=11, or 12.62 according to F3 (if it existed back then; F3 showed your eye level until 1.8, which only shows feet level with versions like 1.6.4 showing both), or just find a cave that goes down to lava level (this is the safest layer since lava is directly below you, with no drop):

A chart of ore distribution before and after Beta 1.8 (the changes mentioned are only relevant to caving, which was nerfed by 50%, or multi-level branch-mines, otherwise branch-mining only depends on the per-layer density, which was unchanged; Beta 1.8 itself applies to versions up to 1.7.10, with release 1.8 increasing the size of all deposits by about 20%):

jamesh02 posted a message on Enigma Machine (MC Edition) WIPPosted in: Redstone CreationsFor the daily codes, you could implement a system similar to a storage disk, where conductive and non-conductive blocks are placed in a "circular" piston tape. You press a button, the piston tapes randomize, and you have a new path for conversion of one character into another.

PuyoDead posted a message on Current member title listUpdate:Posted in: Forum Discussion & Info
With the recent forum software upgrade, the title system is a little bit different. For one, any title you unlock will be available for use from that point on. With that in mind, any hidden title you earn will be usable at any point, not just for the specific post count it shows for. That also means that when you get to that specific post count for a hidden title, it will stay beyond that post count, rather than revert back to the previous title. While we could have simply removed the hidden ranks due to the new system, we decided to keep them in place at the same post counts to unlock.
The update to post ranks is finally here! Sorry to take so long on that. It was a bit difficult trying to keep most of them the same, add new ones, and still keep things on a fairly steady title change scale. Oh, and laziness.
First off, Pig Tamer is not the final title anymore! In fact, it's just been flat out removed. It was placed there before because at the time, we only had one person even close to it. Now that so many are passed it, it's not really needed as a placeholder anymore. There are now far more ranks after 5000, and a few minor tweaks to some lower ranks. There's been a few new hidden ranks added as well. For now, we'll wait until people find them before added them to the spoiler'd list.
Regular ranks

Alright so, The following things could be done with Forge or client side mods, but what I left out could be simply achieved with Bukkit.
A server browser that can be used to easily find a server of any specific type.
A system for friends.
A way to have voice chat with others in your lobby or server.
A way to find out where any Minecraft player with the mod installed is playing.
A global ban system for every client and server with the mod.
A reputation system.
A private/group messaging system.
Cloud save support.
P.S.: I left out the details because i didnt want to go and read it all
