After weeks of hard testing, fixing, re-testing, and fixing even more, the 1.5 Pre-Release is now ready for testing! We are in the final stretch for 1.5, and while it has taken a little longer than many expected, there is a silver lining! Tons of features were added for the Redstone Update, and a landslide of bugs were swept away, to make sure the final release was as smooth and easy as possible.

Perhaps with great diligence, and dedication.
/effect @p[r=7] 1 1000000 2
it's giving me Speed 3 instead of speed 2. I think this may be a bug in the pre-release.
Edit: Also, when I replace two with any other number, the effect is always one higher except with 4 and up, in which case it just says Speed.
2nd Edit: Now it's doing it for what seems like all effects.
Did someone eat your cookie?
Herobrine can't be removed. They attempt but he always comes back.
You know, using caps for every first letter makes your argument invalid.
On Topic: 1.5 Soon yay!
Until 1.5 comes out,we can see the Quartz block in Pocket Edition
