[QUOTE=Drury;33539168]Oh, fixes and pistons, that were, in fact, a stolen mod.[/QUOTE]
Do you know that the code for the piston mod was actually given to jeb?
He also rewrote most of the code himself. Take a look at this: [url]http://www.reddit.com/r/Minecraft/comments/hvkmo/attribution_of_the_piston_mod_in_vanilla_minecraft/[/url]
[QUOTE=Drury;33539168]Oh, fixes and pistons, that were, in fact, a stolen mod.
C'mon people, what did Notch do to deserve all the hate? Yes, he was a little rude with Yogcast, but he MADE THE FUCKING GAME from scratch and kept updating it alone up until late alpha (=> totally about 10000% more than what Jeb did), which made him enough money to establish a company and hire the damn Jeb and everyone else.
Other than that, he seems to be awesome dude, judging from tweets and videos and such and very well behaved (even though he was hatin' on Yogcast, he didn't forget to mention how strongly he approves of their work). Yes, he did take frequent vacations, but I guess I'll sound naive now, but they were very well deserved.[/QUOTE]
The official pistons work nothing like the mod ones though, side by side they are a completely different thing, similar concept and both awesome but one wouldn't work officially while one would, plus a lot of MC's current content is mod inspired but that's just because the community wanted something like it to go official, pistons was one.
Sure Notch started off the game but he twisted it far from what it was originally, then Jeb joined but and started to suggest things which would merge into the original idea of MC while Notch practically threw them all into the bin and added his own retarded crap like snow golems, I mean what the fuck are these things?
[QUOTE=Captain Chalky;33537698]Yes because you seem to have a time machine to not only play it early but also you have played it enough come to the conclusion that it's not a shitty vitual card game. Where may I find a such wondrous machine?[/QUOTE]
That is not even what I implied. I am just pointing out that jumping to conclusions on game that is not released yet is just goddamn stupid, it gives you zero ground to stand on, I personally am not defending it, just pointing out how stupid what he said is.
[QUOTE=eddy-tt-;33537719]I'm sorry but scrolls is basically solitaire crossed with yu-gi-oh and microtransactions slapped on top.
Its not a good concept to even work off, the only pro it has going for it is ~notch~.[/QUOTE]
Jumping to conclusions again are we? I've only seen like, a 10-20 clip of the gameplay, I did not see any mention of a microtransaction system(Maybe I'm just out of touch with news about this thing, just correct me here) and notch isn't even working on it, Jacob is. Plus, how exactly was it like solitaire? YuGiOh, I can get but I have no clue where you got solitaire from.
Someone should send Jeb that one "Notch's Unfulfilled Promises" list on the MCWiki so he can work at it from the top.
I've been looking forward to the Blood Moons thing since Notch thought it up and posted it on /v/ back during Alpha.
Carl manneh is awesome.
Look at dat face

oh cmon guys, notch lives in Sweden, not much to see there sept swimsuit models
And suddenly development speeds up by 300%
So does this mean the game will actually see some progress?
Best news to wake up to.
[QUOTE=Captain Chalky;33540137]He made Scrolls and got sued by Beteshda and wanted to settle it all in a Quake match.[/QUOTE]
That's a bad thing? IMO way better than pointless lawyer war that might not end up well.
[QUOTE=Captain Chalky;33540137]Then I started ignoring his antics because they were awfully silly until the Adventure Update and Minecon stuff.[/QUOTE]
What antics?
/not replying to the rest of your post since it's pure speculation
Prediction: Everyone loves Jeb for the first few months, then everyone resents him.
I would have no problem if Jeb's first order of business was to completely scrap the Ender/ending bullshit, it has no room in a game like this.
Notch is silly thinking he can start up a succesful project because he made Minecraft.
He deserves it.
[quote="Jeb on Twitter"]Today I've fixed some redstone bugs, a powered rail bug and added wool regrowth to sheep. Now it's time to head home![/quote]
Woo, go Jeb!
[QUOTE=Egonny;33541184]Woo, go Jeb![/QUOTE]
And so begins the golden age of bugfixing
The vacation to end all vacations
[QUOTE=Zeke129;33539415]First order of business should be scrapping the End entirely and doing something good instead, like that floating islands place. Make it useful though.
Then overhaul the nether and make it useful too.
Then overhaul dungeons an-
you know what just take everything notch did and fix it[/QUOTE]
make strongholds the new dungeons
get rid of squidward villagers
add lanterns
add books that can be written in and custom paintings
give us a way to get sponge
I think Notch left Jeb too many things to fix in a life time
[QUOTE=Egonny;33541184]Woo, go Jeb![/QUOTE]
He just did more in one day than Notch has done in months, good job Jeb. Minecraft is back in capable hands!
[QUOTE=LtKyle2;33541440]add books that can be written[/QUOTE]
So much this
The day we've all been waiting for. Praise be to jebus!
[QUOTE=Egonny;33541184]Woo, go Jeb![/QUOTE]
thats like...
3 months of notch speed content in a single day.
GO JEB.
I AM VERRRY HAPPY
Jeb coded the dogs yeah?
I love the dogs.

:v:[/QUOTE]
hey if i had millions of dollars id go on vacations all the time
It's great that Jeb is taking over, he's a great developer.
Yet I also think Notch has done a great job.
Good god this is fucking great news. Fuck you notch.
Jeb has good ideas and isn't a lazy money savoring fuck. Maybe I won't be bored of minecraft anymore now that he is in charge.
I can now die a happy man
