1.7.3 dropped this morning/last night. Ive verified that the update is compatible with the server so feel free to update now. When the new bukkit build comes out I may need to restart but that takes just a few seconds.

I have to hand it to Notch... he got on the bugs with Pistons pretty quickly. Impressive considering he's a, what, two or three man show?

I can't wait for 1.8. It sounds like a ton of fun.

so. i've been out of town for the past several months with only a netbook and I see that MC is up to 1.9 now with sprinting and villages and poo. Sounds like I'll be trying to get back to it again once i get back home for a couple of days.

I've been playing with it since the 1.9 prerelease 1 update. They've actually released a Version 2 of 1.9 in the past couple days.

The village thing is nifty. Right now NPC Villagers are just place holders that look like the Squid character from Futurama and all have a name over their head that says "TESTIFICATE". Still, if you can find a village in a new world, it will give you a head start and a place to wait out monsters.

The new biomes are cool. There's Ocean, swamp, mountain and mushroom (I believe one more too, but can't remember). I've seen a ton of swamp biomes. I've only seen one Mushroom Biome, and that was using a specific seed to create a new world with mushrooms nearby to check it out. Snow Biomes appear to be broken at the moment.

They also added Ruins. I've yet to find one. Supposedly they are shallow ground level dungeons that have chests and stuff. The floor of Ocean Biomes seem to be the home of new spawn areas called Adandoned Mine Shafts. These are canyon-like areas with broken up sections of rails and half wooden support beams, like it was all falling apart. The Nether also has dungeons now made of Netherbrick.

There's a several new block types... like the Netherbrick... but there are also stone bricks, fence gates, and a bunch of other things.

Most of these new areas have new mobs associated with them. Like the Cave Spider, Silverfish, and Lava Slime (I think that's what it's called). There is also the Enderman. He's seriously the most freakish thing they've put in the game.

They also have a new Creative Mode, which you can enable when you create a new world. It gives you flight, invulnerabilty, and open access to any quantity of any inventory-style item. Basically god mode to just simply build till your heart's content if you want to ignore the survival/collection aspect.

There's also animal breeding... more farming crops... etc... etc... it really is a ton of stuff they've added.

The most interesting thing about 1.9pre2, is it has glass bottles, and coding for special effects for a potion buff system. I can't wait till they give us the full 1.9 release. Hell, I can't wait till they give us the full game in a couple months.

      Edge Rushers

      By mrcompletely11 · Posted

      Super raw, not sure he is worth a top 10 pick.  Primary a pass rusher.  A bit like Burns, very fast athletic but doesnt always follow the play.  His highlights look good but when you watch him play you can see he is just raw and needs to develop

      Personally, I am not sold on Bryce yet--and I do not think anyone is saying they are, but I don't think Ward is on table when we draft anyway.  Not even sure if I would rather have him than one of the later QBs.  I see a lot of potential in Allar, Nussmeire, Rourke, and even Hamilton from Ohio State--Milroe is intriguing, but I am not sure he is an NFL QB.  Ewers is that sleeper who falls and becomes a solid starter. I think that we sign a veteran who has played and we draft one of these project QBs. To your point:  With that in mind, I think you have to take QB off the table in round 1, and if Bryce can string 4-5 games like KC together, we still need to draft a QB in round three or so---I really think Rourke is a great fit for this offense--he is accurate and gets the ball out quickly---he impressed me vs OSU.   Reason?  I think we may have a tough decision to make about Bryce in 2 years--will he be worth $60m?  That decision is a lot easier if you have been grooming a backup for 2 years who can play. In round 1: I am hoping for PSU's edge Abdul Carter In round 2:  I would like to see us grab a DT who can rush the passer.  Walter Nolen of Ole Miss is versatile and a bit raw. I think he could be an excellent complement to Brown. In round 3:  I would love ILB Danny Stutsman from Oklahoma.  He is a beast. With 11 picks, I would package our 4th rounders to move up into the third round and take a QB.  At the moment, I think Rourke is trending upward and he has the skills Canales seems to want in a QB.  Quick processor, quick release. I would use the fifth rounders on OL.  I know that I left out WR--however, we are getting Thielen back, XL will be improved, Coker will be improved, and Moore has been surprisingly good.  Sanders (TE) has been more than expected in the passing game.  I think we need D more than WR, and maybe we can get a veteran WR to sign or find a hidden gem late.

      Wouldn't be surprised if he starts a couple Jets games this year with the way the Rodgers thing is going. Giants fans are pissed they didn't keep him lol. He might actually have a little bit of a market.
