[QUOTE='[Seed Eater];35610955']How far out is a good distance? I'm looking to get to a safe enough distance to set up an above-ground larger base. I'm thinking 10x, I'm leaving for it in 7 days, me and a comrade.[/QUOTE]
Even my smaller (above ground) base at roughly 5k was not detected last time I saw it (week ago). But I doubt that will very hold long.
The really larger distances (100k +) are usually traveled by nether, which has one disadvantage. The portal you leave behind. If you do this but want to cover tracks a little, don't break it from the overworld, better make some trap out of it, lava seems to work fine. (edit: disadvantage, pissed of people might search harder for your base)
I Personally aim for traveling in the normal word with a distance between 10k and 50k out from spawn. I'm semi-nomadic, traveling and building something when I see a nice spot.
Currently started working on a glass sky-tower (17x17), think I like a nice wooden cabin at the top for the view. I just reached cloud level, so 2/3 still to go, leveling a desert nearby for all the required glass.
How high is it possible to build?
[QUOTE=Melgator;35619570]How high is it possible to build?[/QUOTE]256 blocks. Sea level is 64 iirc.
why do people still insist on making a fp base? you know theres a reason they never last
[QUOTE=Audix;35619890]why do people still insist on making a fp base?[/QUOTE]
It might be fun, some like building, some like defending
[QUOTE=Audix;35619890]you know theres a reason they never last[/QUOTE]
Sure, Forgetting first rule of 2b2t: trust nobody.
What's the alternative: SP with chat ;)
Currently I only have fun with building, not building a base to defend/keep.
Although building traps can be fun to. Just spotted one at reddit which was
easy enough to build.

quite happy with that. 40 levels.
I want to build a giant tunnel that starts at the spawn and loops around itself enough times to make any players that follows it die of hunger.
I'm currently trying to tunnel through the nether from my base back to spawn, basically by suicide runs. Not sure if it's a good idea, but meh :v:

The ocean floor is nice.

Easier to make it straight and add "speedbumps" so they have to keep jumping ;)
Does anyone know what the seed of the map is?
I started playing on this server yesterday and it looks like fun, except for the all the 4chan-ish chat.
Also spawn campers are also kind of irritating, I just started out and immediately some guy in diamond armor killed me. But yeah, should've expected that on an anarchy server.
[QUOTE=Netsc;35622216]Does anyone know what the seed of the map is?[/QUOTE]
Yes, but I do not have the screenshot available until I get home.
Edit: See DSG's post below
Look what a zombie pigman just dropped

(yes im well aware they drop them quite often, but the enchant is great for a drop)

Having the seed won't help you find out what spawn looked like before TNT, if that's what you're thinking. Minecraft's terrain generation has changed several times since the server started.
Actually, what version was Minecraft when 2b2t started? I know it's been around for like 2 years but that's it.

Well you could throw the seed into the previous versions of the game client and generate some land to see what things looked like. To know what version to get to generate land from, you can cross analyze the date and [URL="http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Version_history/Beta"]version on that date[/URL]. I thought the server was originally founded in Dec 2010? Not sure. So you would download a 1.0 beta client and start a new world. See what it may have looked like. Though I think there are some early pics of spawn after a couple days of existence posted somewhere in the internets; even after such short time, much destruction had occurred.

Don't think so, since my current base at the time was still there ;)

Were you expecting milk and cookies at the door?
If you are looking that direction right now, you're watching me suffer. Let me out :C

Holy ass tits, that's so close to my base. I don't care if you find it, I lost it/moving away with diamonds. It's in the near by ravine, not connected to a mineshaft. I plan on going somewhere else anyways. Did you find it on the zombie spawner?
[QUOTE=AgentBoomstick;35626007]Were you expecting milk and cookies at the door?[/QUOTE]
I hope boats are fixed by Christmas time, I'd head back to spawn with a Santa skin just to hand out buckets of milk and a stack of cookies to everyone who spawns there.
Then stab them in the face with a diamond sword and tell them "Now beat it."

Don't forget to record it.
First day playing, and did a 15K haul. Made a couple of FP hidey holes.
Saw some shit. Sorry for shoddy image work:

Why do noobs fight each other at spawn? It seems so pointless..
[QUOTE=omaliymix;35627330]Why do noobs fight each other at spawn? It seems so pointless..[/QUOTE]
Probably hoping to get food or have nothing better to do since they can't get out of spawn.

Would be awesome if there was a "Drained Ocean" biome. Ocean generation, but no water, and the dirt cannot grow grass on it.
