My question would also have to be WHY.
The only one of your ideas that I could see as useful would have to be idea number 2 if your out to get the most out of every block.
Only if we can get inside one and make a house :biggrin.gif:
I like the idea of a whale in the game! And when you get eaten you get teleported to the whales stomach and you can build a house there like Gepeto(Pinocios father) did.
Cool!! But i think this is gonna take a long time to do.
Well he does'nt need to make all the bosses. Just starting with one would be a big improvment to the game! I love playing minecraft but i wish there was some more complexity to the game.

_______________________________________________________________________________ FAQ:
Q: This seems really dangerous, what if someone makes a mob with 1 HP that drops 64 diamond blocks? Or a creeper that explodes 100 blocks around it? What if someone makes a really stupid mob?! I don't want it in my game.
A: There would be an in game option of which mobs to allow, if you don't want certain mobs you don't have to use them. You don't have to play with mobs you don't want.
Q: What about on multiplayer servers?
A: The mob control is up to the server owner, they can set which mobs they want to spawn. If you think a certain mob they are using is bad, complain to them about it, get over it, or get off their server.
Q: Can we make our own mob shapes?
A: Probably not. You would probably have to select from default pre-made shapes (by Notch), and customize those. Custom mob shapes and animations would probably be included in a more advanced editor or the API.
Q: How do we share mob files?
A: You could use file hosting sites such as mediafire, or send them by Email or Instant Messenger to friends. Perhaps there could eventually be an online library for storing just the mob files.
Q: Who will make this?
A: It would be nice for Notch to make an official version himself, with proper support. Third party programs sometimes lack proper support and certain bugs may not be addressed due to problems in Minecraft itself. [edit]But third party programs are welcome [/edit]
Personal Note about mods: In my opinion, mods are often nice game enhancers, but sometimes they are difficult to install and that makes it so not everyone can use them. Other times they lack proper support or have bugs that interrupt gameplay. Installing mods every update seems like to much of a hassle for me, but I have nothing against them in general. Due to the recent scare of accounts being stolen via mods/clients, people may be discouraged from installing mods as well.
Q: If the mob creator is made, how do we run it?
A: There will be a button on the start screen menu with the other buttons, most likely.
Q: WHERE CAN I GET THIS?!?!
A: What you see above is just a picture, an image, I drew it in Photoshop. That isn't a real program itself, but there may be a few mods made from it.
_______________________________________________________________________________
I assure you this has taken much of my time, and it'd be a waste to see this idea forgotten and never seen by the eyes of Notch. He probably hasn't even seen the Original Poster's apology, let alone he probably forgot about the whole said ordeal.
This is just basically a visual concept of the idea, so the graphics probably don't matter.
It'd be nice to ask someone who has a better chance of contacting and getting a response from Notch to please send him this thread so he can see it, but I'm skeptical that that will happen.
Who else is tierd of this lonely world you have created? You like to create and you want as many ways as possible to customize your world.
Dolls would be a simple and great way to customize your world and still go under minecraft theme.
Doll Qualities/Characteristics
-Stand still
-Jumps up and down when greeting player
-Say a simple phrase
-Die in some comical way when attacked
-Nameable
etc.
A simple doll would not be to much trouble. It would just have a few basic commands.
Gives Objective to the game
-It gives an objective to the game by giving the player something to protect from the monsters other than himself/herself.
A simple NPC would NOT be to hard. It would be fun. Imagine a doll. It basicly just stands in one spot. You can eqiup items to it, name it, give it a phrase to say, make it jump when it sees you, die in some comical way when it gets attacked.
A simple NPC would do a lot of difference to the game. It would make it more customizable and more fun. Its so boring just having a bunch of empty houses, castles and dungeons!
Instead of finding peices and putting them together, how about just having one peice of fossil per dino and having some sort of machine that revives them. Like in Jurassic Park or like the fossils in Pokemon games.

Cant he just make them spawn the way that dungeons and ore spawns already. Just randomly. That wouldn´t be to hard right?

I HOPE THAT NOTCH ADDS THEM!
There is no need for a plot line either. They just take their part of the world in the game and if you dont like them, go kill them.

HAHA! Thats true :smile.gif: Now that I think about it'd be kind of creepy stepping in through the door and then seeing a doll staring at you.
Hope that Notch considers it anyways. It would also be the funniest thing in the game!

I would chang one thing though.
