Yeah, I've been there a few times. Never realized what those switches were about (partially because I never bothered flipping them since I didn't know what they would do).

I discovered Joe's flame rod + exp farm yesterday. I've grinded ("ground" just doesn't seem right in this context) probably 120 levels with it. Once I figure out the best way to build it, I'm going to be reproducing it in the overworld with a zombie/skeleton farm (mob farm like the one I have currently producing mob drops), or maybe with the zombie spawner I've discovered.

I think I'll also try finding a way to build one to work with spiders as well.

Experience farms are nice, but I don't like how far I have to travel to get to Joe's.

Meanwhile, I've begun building my fortress on Waterworld. Until now, it's just been a farming compound. Now's when the real fun begins...

well there is an underground tunnel that cuts to his place that has rail in it, down close to bedrock, i could do an underground render to help you find it, or a neather portal, using the portal in my base, it cuts travel time to his down to 1-2 min from 10-15

I use the nether, it's the absolutely fastest possible way to get there. Travel time is about three minutes, which isn't terrible, but I'd like it shorter than that. No big deal.

It's about due time for a new render of Waterworld.

Ballin'. My place is huge compared to what it was back on the last map. I had to hunt for it before. Now it draws the eye to it.

Have any of you guys tried out the new launcher yet?

no have not tried out the new launcher yet, have kept an eye on it... did they implement the feature where you can choose a jar?
