[QUOTE=madmanmad;34831975][url]http://twitter.com/#!/jonkagstrom/status/172665101730594816/photo/1[/url] Dear god is that some kind of robot or somthing?[/QUOTE] I believe that's a golem. Which I guess carries some unfortunate implications with the shape of the noses of the villagers. But that is a silly train of thought.

Whats the most effective method for mining? In this case i'm looking for lapus, but I've always been curious.

Go through caves on really low levels. Or just go to ~14 and mine straight from there.

Does anyone know a city map that does not have any buildings made out of wool?

[QUOTE=UnknownDude;34832412]Does anyone know a city map that does not have any buildings made out of wool?[/QUOTE] You could use one of those block replacement plugins if you're into that sort of thing

[QUOTE=phabeZ;34830816]so Jeb tweeted this [img]http://i.imgur.com/xSRLn.png[/img][/QUOTE] Game Dev of the year, All Years. That is honestly the one thing that I've wanted in minecraft since forever.

New snapshot is out!

They take 15 hits to kill with a diamond sword and drop iron ingots and roses.

Dunno about you people but that robot looks terrifying.

Wait how does the upside-down stairs work? Is it a new block, or are you just able to place stairs upside down?

[QUOTE=phuwnaren;34833267]Wait how does the upside-down stairs work? Is it a new block, or are you just able to place stairs upside down?[/QUOTE] It's not a new block. Just place stairs above you, and it will turn upside down.

Now I just hope they do the same thing with slabs

Has anyone noticed what happens when you press F9 (in creative) in-game yet? Didn't notice that before...

Looks like the best lighting glitch ever is back again. [img_thumb]http://i39.tinypic.com/33u4z2a.png[/img_thumb] Please dear god no one tell Jeb.

I don't think it's a robot, it's a golem.

[QUOTE=TheSporeGA;34833464]I don't have that.[/QUOTE] Are the sides closed off?

they should add trading to the village, that way we could buy the golems off them that'd be sweeeet

[QUOTE=vladnag;34833656]they should add trading to the village, that way we could buy the golems off them that'd be sweeeet[/QUOTE] You can make golems like snowmen with a T of iron blocks and a pumpkin head.

[QUOTE=Sharker;34833528][img]http://farm5.staticflickr.com/4073/4945761657_bdb1cb7086.jpg[/img] Except more retarded looking.[/QUOTE] That's probably the first thing I thought of, the sentinel robot except with a Testificate nose. So is this one another golem? We already have Snow Golems, it would make sense if this one was as well.

I say they should just update the crafting table overall to provide more possibilities and otherwise make things easier. [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/8Dw1G.jpg[/IMG] When those arrows are lit up, you can click them to choose a different object that can be crafted from the same recipe that you are currently using. So you could make [B]slopes[/B] instead of [B]stairs[/B] for example. I'd say it'd be a great idea. Also, it'd be something for modders to enjoy as well.

That could come in handy; you can only draw so much on a 3x3 grid. If we had a 4x4 crafting grid it'd be even cooler, allow for crafting more items together, but having a configuration be used for creating more than one kind of item would be interesting too, even though it'd probably require less code sorcery to expand the crafting grid.

Tested it for myself and I fit in easely.
