Steam Games Trade Depot

Every so often on Steam a game will be available as a bundle with extra copies to give out to friends. For instance, I bought Frozen Synapse on sale today ($8.49 instead of $24.99) and got a free additional copy to give away. I figured that I might as well post it here and see if anybody else has an...

Re: Windmill Aesthetics?

In my old world, I went for a pretty slender fencepost-based one. Did a similar sort of thing this time around, but raised up the sails a bit, toned down the fences and put the sawmill underneath for a bit heftier base. http://i1218.photobucket.com/albums/dd409/Speltz0000/2012-03-24_234259.png The o...

Re: HOLY SH*T! Scary Moments in Minecraft

I was wandering around filling up a map and had broken my sword and didn't have any tools or blocks or anything since it was just a quiet stroll. I was looking down at my map figuring out where to go next when I heard the Creeper hiss. Started running, and ran right into a hole about 4 deep and 2x2 ...

Re: Biggest FAIL moments in my minecraft history

Maybe iron nugget drops from Pigmen? From scraps of armour?

Boosting NPC XP drops with fear

Deepsniper and I chatted a bit about this idea in the Steam chat a couple of days ago, and I figured that we might as well throw it out in here to see if anyone likes it or has any ideas. As usual, I don't know if it's possible or how much work it would entail, but here it is. Seeing as Steve's real...

Great story, morv! It's pretty cool to hear different ideas for why Steve is doing his thing. I always figured him for a shipwreck survivor, but this scouting and base establishing angle makes for a way better backstory.

Re: Sleeping bag

At current, there is no way to safely sleep in the open. Granted, in the Minecraft world, that would be a ludicrous idea anyways, but sometimes it's nice not to have to build a small bunker when the night hits on those long journeys away from home. If I remember right, I think you can sleep out in ...
