Oh dear.

I have a spare Mackerel and Danger Shield I'd like to sell off if anyone is interested. Reclaimed metal is preferred.

Besides from that, I'm always willing to exchange non-vintage weapons on a 1:1 ratio, on the purpose of trading away weapons of one class for ones  of another class so I can use them in crafting.

I can't stop looking.

So hypnotic.

I've had a gate link correctly -only once-. (Original on earth, and then when coming back from the nether, I appear on the original gate every time)

The major difference was that the obsidian wasn't under the ground, so you had to jump to get on the gate. Not sure if it was luck or if that matters. It needs more testing, obviously. I have a strong suspicion that whenever a gate fails to link correctly, you can tweak it by destroying it and moving one tile on a given direction. It's a logical bug, if the algorithm Notch uses searches 2x3 tiles for a gate, so it might skip 'odd' gates. I have a broken link gate that I can use to test that, count the distance between the original gate to the nether-created one to see if it's an odd number issue and then build an appropriate gate and test it.

I have had a gate link back to its earthbound counterpart correctly, too. This one, however, was 30-50 blocks beneath the surface. Had to do some digging to reach the open areas of hell when I first entered.

Goddamnit.

Oh god that looks awesome. The way slipgates work totally ruins the "minetrack into hell" idea though.

Hopy shit, how many of these lolevil people are running around here?

I'm sensing a bandwagon.

Funny, I thought if an evil bandwagon started I would be the one who started it.

Although I probably helped it along for a bit.
