Its been too long since I last posted so I thought I would act as some sort of adbot and tell you all to buy minecraft…. NOW! Wait, who am I kidding, no one reads this.
Hi Ho Hi Ho
What is minecraft? It’s a game where you dig, and try to survive. dig some more, and build. Oh do you build.



Photo not up to date, for one that is now a lavafall.
Minecraft also features many mechanisms you can build to automate mine cart railway stations and other weird things.
all on a map that is about 8 times the surface of the earth…
Its simple and addictive.
Survive
remember that part earlier on the post? Large heights and lava are not your only dangers here. At night the undead walk the earth. Able to spawn anywhere there is darkness, even your own home if you have no torches! Also giant spiders and the infamous creeper….

All he does is go right behind you, hiss, then explode… killing you, and destroying large portions of the terrain, possibly ruining hours of work. He has been known to cause whole mines to flood as his crater lets the ocean pour in. And unlike the undead, he does not die in sunlight, you have to kill him, or avoid him.
So with such horrors why do we play?
