this is the running check i do of the Mojang twitter feeds. if a set of tweets is big enough it gets its own post. when something major comes along i change the title. reardless it all goes into the OP spoilers with a datestamp of dd/Month/yy (24 Hour Clock Time) format to let you guys use it more effectivly.
feel free to discuss the tweets in here. in fact i encourage it

Wow... Looks awesome XP but does it melt under lava?
and doesnt that mean we wont find it unless it snow biome?
btw nerfing enderman block carry? O.o what does endermen carrying a block even do? >.<
Edit: nvm i read all the tweets :/ not really a mob, but more of a summonable passive that throws snowballs and like a distraction to attract enemies to it

The thing with creepers is that they have to go up right next to you. Endermen just need to be spawned.

Releasing something? Is this a 1.8.x or an early 1.9?
I haven't been keeping up with the tweets, but I figure someone else has - and will know the answer to this question.

I think the Explanation of the hectic update schedule really speaks alot... even more so to our Player Base... *Hint Hint*
The reason we're releasing stuff so closely now is a push before the release in November!
Server admins and modders(And I should add Player Base to this ~ Milo), have patience.

Zombie pigmen now drop gold nuggets. With a live nether, the value of gold is going to plummet. D: Has anyone ever made a mobtower in nether?

It's worthless from a trading standpoint. Trying to acquire ten gold blocks via trading would take longer than mining the eighteen diamonds you'd need for a cuboid.
lol u mad yet?

Well that's good and bad. Good because it fixes the "put a rock on your spacebar" AFK workaround, bad because.. well, bunnyhopping was fun as hell.
And if you're going to keep gusta'ing things, at least find a new picture. The repetitive Sheldon "me gusta" is getting annoying man. >_<

Also, if anyone noticed at about 6:40, you can now see other players' bow action and firing. That's cool.

Woohoo! I was going to try to rush building my roof, since auto-jump speeds it along so much, but now I can take my time.
