Recently discovered Minecraft!!

[Apple]

Yesterday night I randomly came across the Minecraft sticky and ended up reading it to see what Minecraft was all about. Then Paul had put a link in to a video so I had a little look. Then I had the massive urge to try it out so bought it. I did an all-nighter just building houses and converting caves etc but wondered why there were no monsters coming to get me. Found out today that it was because I had it on Peaceful .

So yeh I am officially hooked!

I am still a noob on it, was in Stuto's server for a good few hours tonight and I couldn't believe how much effort had been put into everything, that map is amazing!! If anyone has any tips for me on how to be better at it I'd appreciate it. I know it's probably all about practise but I thought that I had done well converting a cave into a home using mud blocks on single player, then when I saw everything on Stuto's server I couldn't believe it. Also are there any other servers that are open most of the time?

can you give yourself stuff on stuto server cos all you'd really need to do is think of something and gogogo build. Or you could plan it all out on a bit of paper or paint and then make it come alive

I might have to look into this sometime; there's apparently a huge hype over it.

Could you not have posted this in the minecraft thread? Hence the stickying...

Anyway yes, minecraft is cool.

I personally think we should have a Minecraft subsection because the Minecraft sticky is basically getting muddled up with Stuto's server etc. Anyway...

I was hooked too when I first found it (thx to hxf) and I had the painful experience of having to wait 5 days for paypal to process the payment (bank). One tip I could give you is probably just to explore the caves as they are the quickest way to get diamond.

I had to suffer over a month to buy it because paypal kept rejecting my card

Sucks to be you... (and flyingjesus)

It was worth it in the end!

I saw Minecraft and don't see the big huge deal about it really.

I didn't have to wait for paypal, I had to wait to actually have money and somehow I have more now that I'm unemployed how does that make sense anyway yeah a minecraft subsection might be useful if people are still doing single player so they can show their efforts n tingz, or so we can have mini community threads for things like the village
