Has anyone here made the mistake of downloading Minecraft yet?
I started with Minceraft, moved on to Tekkit and now I have ftb (unleashed).
I promise that I'm not addicted. I sometimes read stuff on this forum and do stuff IRL (like eat and sleep. That is important, right?)
Ok - I might be a tiny bit addicted. I see blocks all around me. When I have to tidy the house I pretend that it is blocks that I have to move to the right place.
Any thoughts on how to get past it?
Any spelling mistakes are due to my godlessness!

Did you know this site runs a Minecraft server?
You have to let me know your Minecraft name so I can add you to the build list, and you have to set your Minecraft client to use 1.6.4 (we're using CraftBukkit). It's a creative server so there are no monsters. If enough people play I could create an adventure server as well.
Otherwise, just enter 'atheistforums.org' as the server address.

I bought Minecraft before 1.6 came out. It's a great game, though sometimes seeds change for the worse. Like a really nice seed I had with four monster spawners close together. One for skellies, one for zombies, and two for cave spiders. Unfortunatley the skelly one turned into a zombie one.
I have built a nice 11x11 clay brick house when I'm not just living in a cave. I've started working on building a castle, but I don't have all the particulars yet, like what will be inside the walls. I've really only worked on the walls and towers, and how to make a moat bridge lower and raise, and a gate that will open and close.
There's a switch for the bridge, and switches for the individual sides of the gate. There's probably some way to make it all work on one switch, but I'm not an expert on red stone circuits.
I'm also trying to think of how to build a catapult for the top of the towers, even if it isn't functional. I can just pretend that it can launch TNT at enemies.
I haven't played a multiplayer server because I don't want griefers coming by and stealing/wrecking my stuff.
