An in-browser, online world generation/exploration "game", Minecraft lets you team up with (or against) random people online to build a world out of blocks. It's really fun! We should all get together in a room sometime and play this!

I used to play this all the time and I built great buildings and stuff and it was fun but then it got boring.
Download a program so you can fly and go warp speed because it makes building easier.
Is this like Starcraft, but underground?
... No.
I had a server running for this game not too long ago, I should still have our map left. Me, chewey, Irock and some other people played on it. It's pretty fun but the flying around stuff sort of makes the game boring faster than it would without it.
Entertaining game though.
Rasse and I played this a while ago and tried rounding up to play without much success. Public servers are a pain since anything you do will soon be wrecked by some dickhead.
Anyway, it was fun until Irock convinced Rasse to use some cheating program.
BUMP BECAUSE I MIGHT PLAY WITH MY FRIENDS. When Ferenn/Rasse/Skanker hosted the server, was it on Classic or Alpha? P: And I'm assuming you guys didn't pay to play.
Back then Alpha didn't even exist yet. I'm hosting an Alpha server now though, and yes we've bought the game.
Minecraft is amazing, I love searching for dungeons, as for yet, I haven't found one.
Unfortunately my client is from the open weekend, for some reason it still allows me on off-line playing, so I may aswell use it :). I'm intending to buy it soon, but my friend might be gifting his free second version thing to me. (When you've bought you can gift a second one to somone else)

I actually bought the game recently, too! 8D
I might play sometime in the future like on monday if ya want.
Skanky, would you mind posting the server connect detail? I just bought the game tonight and would love to play :]
You can connect to mine if you want, given that you won't grief D8<
I wouldn't do that. =_= I've spent 9+ hours in single player just building a watch tower, and it's STILL not finished. If something happened to it, I'd be pissed.
I love Minecraft.
Once I get my paycheck I should invest in it, could be fun, they've added a hell of a lot since Skanks and Chewey and all of us played last ya?
I just bought it last night. He did add a lot since back when wareya and I and winzen and the no-bear gang last played.
Wow I remember back then when wareya and you and chewey and skanker and sometimes roph and I all played.
I played it for around 150 seconds, then deleted it :|
Roph is a spoil sport, unlike Redwyn and Moo and Irock and Skanker and Chewey and Irock and I.
And Yeyinde.
He is a spoilsport for not liking a game
Of course it all makes sense now
Some people just can't handle completely non-linear games. There's nothing wrong with them, they just have no creativity or imagination.
They can't think for themselves. They have to be told what they need to do.
So are we going to play on my server or Ferenn/Skanker/Rasse's P:
Skanker's server is the best. B|
D8 Well, wat's the IP? And what's he got on there? P:

That's a stretch. I played this game for a little while, and then stopped. It was boring. Drawing dicks was fun, though.
idk, there's just so much you can do:

Yeah, I didn't like minecraft so that completely defines my personality. It's not that I "can't handle" it, I just don't like it. It doesn't interest me :)
Blah blah no need to get at eachothers throats for a game. For people wanting to connect to mine you'll have the best luck getting on IRC and asking for my IP since it changes irregularly (welp) but for now you can just try connecting to [spoiler]80.221.102.205[/spoiler] It was made for me, chewey and people from garachat but one of them is sick and the other one is waiting for a new computer so it's a bit desolate right now. It'll be up and running most of the time from now on and backups are being made regularly, but don't be a dick just because of that *-*
AHHH
I'M ON MINECRACK
SOMEBODY HELP ME
Minecraft's so rad. But it doesn't seem to be as popular here as it does in this other community I'm a part of. This page doesn't have 1.6k+ pages.
Anywho, I currently have a large tower on a small island. Has a spiral staircase that goes real far down into the earth, no diamond yet. Anyone hosting?
I'm trying to do something similar to skylands, on a smaller scale. (Started before I played skylands, of course, but yeah) And I'm making a bunch of places to create a singleplayer experience. So far I've got a small settler's village of sorts built around a fort, a chasm to the bottom of the earth with a spooky bridge, an outpost, an evil nether temple (buried in sand) and a graveyard, allllllll out in the desert. It's not much, but I'm still coming up with ideas.
I own a desert on a survival multiplayer server. I have some buildings planned out, and I got these two towers around the entrance done, though the interior hasn't been done yet.
I turned the graphics down so the clouds wouldn't get in the way.

Okay see, my buildings, they're not nearly that pretty. They're more...functional, than anything else. A rock that can be used as a hammer, as opposed to the hammer-lux-5000 from sears.
I wish I could come up with a rad design for a building. I'll probably spend some time designing something
How much does it cost?
14 dollars when I bought it.
Sounds interesting. I'll look in to it.
I'd recommend you buy it even if you have any second thoughts on it. It's amazingly good for something still in the alpha stages, and you'll want to buy it before it hits beta; prices will be continually rising as it nears completion.
Been hanging around the Skylands (http://www.minecraftforum.net/viewtopic.php?f=25&t=38214) lately. It lags now and again when the map is loading up, but from what I hear that's because of the Halloween update.
Its' pretty awesome.
Sounds like I'm getting a new game
Mine lags every four seconds when I play skylands, my computer cant run it at all.
I'm broke someone have a heart of gold and purchase minecraft for anski ;_;
Do you promise to play it a lot? I might can hook you up on my next paycheck.
Yeah mang, I used to play on a public account but there was dramatics with the admin of it and he shut it all down.
Alright, I'll see what I can do. : )

It lags for a while for me until it loads the different chunks into ram, and then it seems to work fine.
I thought it would do that for me, but like, even outside that very first house, if I look away from the building it completely vomits all over itself.
I'm amazed at what some people are doing with this game, but I find it very laggy on all the multi-player servers, so it hasnt really kept my attention
WOO just got done building a three floor luxury home with an indoor garden, two bedrooms, two bath, lab basement, secret exit, 3/4 balcony. My morning was a good morning, I got that done in four hours.
And people say WoW is a waste of time..
Hey, if you're enjoying yourself, and you don't regret it later, nothing is a waste of time. Isn't life the pursuit of happiness? :D Anyone who says something is a waste of time is just jealous the other guy has it so easy.

it is. just like every other game.
Time well wasted is time not wasted at all.
Also, Arrow, when can I expect the craft of mining?
How about tonight after work? That'd be about 11:00 or so my time. You'll need to make an account at the site first and then PM me your information- make your password something you don't use for anything else, because I'll have to log in as you to purchase it.
I can't remember your time zone, so for the record: It is five o'clock at my house.
Also, for those of you who want some new textures:
http://painterlypack.net/
Customize- you will want to- through the button under the banner. It's easy. Just put the zip file into your minecraft installation's texture pack folder.
Should be:
QuoteC:\Documents and Settings\(username goes here)\Application Data\.minecraft
If you're on XP. I don't know about vista/win7, but it should be similar.
EDIT: Forgot to mention: you can probably ignore the so-called "Important Notice" on the front page. I have this installed and have currently not seen any of those issues. I think the message is outdated.
We're in the same time zone and the PM is sent. ;]
Where's the server? 8D Is it just Ferenn's?
Painterly is nice, but I prefer Doku's RPG Texture pack. I found an updated version that works with the new patch, but it's a 32x32pixel texture pack, so it requires a bit of an additional patch to make it work properly, and there's still bugs with the portals (I think I should go back to 16x16 ones)
I also used to use Quandary (http://www.retributiongames.com/quandary/) and am thinking of working up my own if I can be assed to.
Also, if anyone is interested, here's a HUGE LIST OF TEXTURE PACKS (http://www.minecraftforum.net/viewtopic.php?f=25&t=12352) for those who want to know all most of the options.
If anyone wants, I can have Tom restart our server and such, and I can give out the URL.
I would be all for that, but the last time I played multiplayer my computer decided to eat its own face.
Anyone wanna trade some maps? I might put up my house online later.
I have minecraft now.
I also slept with Arrow to do it.
;_;
Let's play! 8D
if you want to join our server, hit me up on irc for the url. Just don't be a dick on it.
