Update newz 6/6/11
I figured out how i'll do updates from now on, every sunday. thats simple isn't it? Anyway I'm not the minecraft noob I once was, so you can expect higher quality material in this blog. (HIGHER quality, I never said it would be good.) Anyway, I heard evil lawyers from hell were added in morecreeps and weirdos. The problem is that modders often don't post enough info about their mods, (I tried hard to figure out how to wear a bunny hat in mo' creatures) so we are a bit clueless at the moment. But, all I know is they'll sue you or throw you in a zombie-lawyer infested jail. Can I go back to doing orcs now?
5/6/11 FINALLY AN UPDATE
Sorry I haven't updated in a while, I've been working on some BIG things.
  • A texture pack
  • Real life
  • Someone offered to mod my suggestion: picniccraft

I know this blog is about science and glitches, so heres a glitch for you:

I was mucking around with my toomanyitems and I tried placing wildgrass, but it came up as a dead shrub D:<

ALSO, I recently discovered a group thats kinda like apeture science in minecraft, but i forgot what it was called, all I remember is they are focused on technological advancement in the minecraft world, adding more machines to the game.

ALSO, I recommend the betterthenwolves mod, it adds so many useful utilities and tools to the game, including a companion cube. awkward... I won't go into much detail, but I enjoyed that mod for the short time I played it.

I'm working on a project, the orcs. I want to populate the world full of the guys. I just need a modder.

Its late so i'm going to bed. Thats all for today.
DUZ NAWT COMPOOT 3/5/11
WOW I HATE MY SERVER. we've lost everything 5 times and forced to start over, I'm getting sick of it... D: apparently we don't have enough RAM to run it for TWO PEOPLE..... D:< Anyway, i've been off smp and planet minecraft for a while since I've been doing 2 things.
  1. Creating a mod
  2. Helping someone create a mod.
Anyway, I just got GIMP, (For the two things above) so you can expect better quality in my work. Anyway, MY mod is a fail, but the one i've been helping is popular. I think its because people much rather more mobs then more food. (I know I do.)

Don't get me wrong though, I LIKE texturing for this mod. I really want to see this person's ideas in-game, Its just I need some support too.

Anyway, I recommend you check out BOTH mods, as they are AWESOME. If you are a modder, both of us need support so PLEASE check out these forum threads:
CaveCraft (More mobs and plants in caves)
PicnicCraft (My mod :) Please support!)
Creeper science 101 23/4/11
Cannot believe I made it this far to our 2nd experiment. well, here we go.
What you need: A deep, dark hole in the ground, and some ladders.

I noticed the increasing number of creepers around my castle when I was setting up the "Arrow cannons." So I went to investigate. I went down the plains of my glorious kingdom and went down to a cavern I found before. Back then I thought, "Maybe I can explore this later with some friends" So I set some ladders on the sides so I could get down. This got me asking, can creepers climb ladders?
Photobucket
Yeah I admit, thats a horrible shot of the cavern

I could've used the wiki, but I decided it would be a perfect excuse for another post in this blog :D So I lured a creeper into the chasm, And waited at the top, and he climbed up and blew up in my face D:, But HOW do creepers climb ladders with no arms? My new theory is that creepers grab hold of the steps with their teeth, and push themselves up with their stubby legs.

Also... when creepers are struck by lightening, they get super-charged and their explosion will have the potential to 1-hit KO you in normal mode.

Some Theories I have. 23/4/11
While you readers are waiting for experiment number two (If we have any readers, that is) I'll post up my most bestest theories yet
  1. A ghast went up to bedrock, married a slime and the baby was the first creeper.
  2. Zombies and skeletons kill humans and Steves for sport.
  3. Creepers are horribly disfigured mutant zombie pigmen corpses stuffed with TNT.
  4. Notch Is evil
  5. The creeper is a spy!
  6. And finally, the most likely theory yet, Notch plays way too much Valve.


Bacon, lightening and mob spawners 22/4/11
For our first ever experiment in Geese University, We will look at the lightening + pig reaction.
What You need: 1-5 mob spawners, a lightening storm and a sword to defend yourself.

I went out of my warm, heated, dry castle and outside onto a stormy, cold cliff face (Perfect dramatic place for lightening) I placed 4 mob spawners along the cliff and soon some pigs appear. I awaited for a pig to be struck. It wasn't happening. I saw that Me and the pigs weren't the only ones on the mountain, and that the darkness from the storm was attracting some unwanted monsters. I was too busy fighting the zombies and skeletons to notice that my experiment worked!PhotobucketI immediately tabbed out to find out how to take screenshots on a mac. I tried attacking them, and they seemed to get angry, though they didn't seem to get damaged, they were pushing up against me and eventually pushed me off the cliff. I diedPhotobucketConclusion: Pigs turn into zombie pigmen through lightening, monsters spawn during storms and cliffs are bad places for weather-related experiments.
