We’ve been in Seattle for three days now. The first day was just arriving and eating lunch before crashing in bed. The next two days were meetings and planning with Microsoft, working out some details for the XBox version of Minecraft and getting to know their team a bit better. Today, we did a brief drop-by at Bungie to say hi (but not to Valve! Why not? I miss those guys), then went to the PAX floor to help Elin, Lydia, Vu and a couple of volunteers to help finish up the last details. While doing so, we found a couple of bugs in the 1.8 demo and I had to do some live bug fixing right there.
PAX starts tomorrow, and it’s going to be awesome. If you’re there, please come check out our booth at the sixth floor, we’re very proud of it.
Good night,
Notch

Hopefully they fix most of the bugs this time though, so we don't go from 1.8.0 to 1.8.8 in one day just to make the game playable. It's a huge update, so a lot can go wrong.

Notch during dev
I think them using PAX for the 1.8 will be helpful since the players who play the demo will spot bugs and notch will have them patched before it's release.
Or, at least, the short term game-breaking bugs like the piston-lever bug and the right-clicking a sheep crash.

they should make a pax before every update and every update should be this big, just released earlier.

Probably because we don't need useless blog posts that don't relate to minecraft spamming up the place.
but can't it still post
Well everyone interested in minecraft check's notch's blog every 5 minutes, so there's no need to a bot.
Irony of the bot, it was created by Overv :v:
Another bot ruthlessly killed.

or, he could just give it to us
the beta testers
[QUOTE=Mio Akiyama;31957156]Why did they ban the Notch bot?[/QUOTE]
probably because notch never posts about minecraft
[QUOTE=DimJim;31959831]or, he could just give it to us
the beta testers[/QUOTE]
What ever happened to nightly builds?
[QUOTE=Galago;31961875]What ever happened to nightly builds?[/QUOTE]
Notch probably doesn't update a lot because there's tons of people that act like this is the full game and would get pissy every time it updates and something breaks, as well as breaking almost every mod. Maybe he should have a separate "beta version" for people that actually want to beta test so they can get updates every night/week, or just when ever notch wants to upload an update.
