Below is a list of some of the added features:

- Bow Enchantments
- Golden Apple recipe
- New language translations.
- Slightly smoothed color transitions between biomes
- Reduced brewing time to 20 seconds
- Added spawn eggs to creative (the colors of the eggs even look like the mobs)
- Added world type options (currently only super-flat and default)
- Removed collision box from ladders
- Sheep eat grass and regain their wool

Plus many bug fixes!

Merry Christmas!
"OH EM GEE WHERE ARE MY PRESENTS"

It's beginning to look a lot like CRIT-mas
Everywhere you go
Take a look behind as you run
so that a Creeper won't ruin your fun
whilst Nether portals and sentry guns aglow

It's beginning to look a lot like CRIT-mas
(Crate) keys in every store
But the prettiest sight to see
Is the unusual (hat) that will be
Obtained from a successful trade! (Note: buying crate keys might make you poor)

A pair of enchanted swords and a pistol that heals
Is the wish of every gamer
A robot that repairs and also heals a friend
Is the hope of a career Engineer!
And the server owners can hardly wait
For the merry season to end (Not really, more players equals more fun)

It's beginning to look a lot like CRIT-mas
Everywhere you go
There's a hidden gift in cp_steel
One in tc_hydro as well!
The kind that doesn't mind to be alone (Every old-school TF2 player gets this bit)

It's beginning to look a lot like CRIT-mas
The Ender Dragon is happy as well
And believe it or not - the enemy team is waiting
On the control point that you've controlled
Right from the start

Merry Christmas to all of you - and especially the members!

Hey-o! Our Minecraft players are gathering together on Saturday to start the new world on our Minecraft server.

If you want to reserve a spot for a house in the starting village - or even a spot for a complete town! - make sure you're on the server when the event starts.

There may be cake, and there will definitely be creepers. So jump on the server for 6 PM and lets see if we can reach the End.

Yes you read correctly.  Now you'll be able to kill people using Phone 7 or Xbox's.  They might be able to kill you too but odds are you'll have a better input mechanism sorted out in your custom built, one of a kind gaming lair (read bedroom with clothes everywhere...).

This should mean you get most of the other things on Xbox Live which mostly give you the opportunity to give more of your money to Microsoft in different ways all from the safety of your house which you'll appreciate more once global warming kicks in...

If this teaches you anything, it should be that owning a Phone 7 device or an Xbox could get you killed in your own living room if your not careful.  More on the news on the below link (it does have some good information not contained in this piece).

Link to news

Oh and comment on the article below.  I'd appreciate some feedback on if you like the style of the article with a link to a source.

Minecraft 1.8 or the Adventure update has been leaked as announced on Notch's Twitter feed.

Judging from the Twitter posts, it seems quite obvious this isn't really a leak but an intentional unofficial release to allow some public testing before the actual update is released and some users are reporting bugs and issues and Notch has said that users can use the unofficial release and encourages them to report bugs.

That and the fact that the leaked update is available at the below link that resolves to the minecraft servers, it should kind of remove any doubts that this is anything other than an unofficial release from the company to get some public testing done prior to release.

(Though I have to say, it wouldn't even load for me for some reason.  The Jar file refused to load with a main class not found in jar file error.)

Getting back to life
"We're not dead yet!"

In this issue we'll cover up:

• The new layout, said layout breaking itself and finally getting it all fixed

A software update broke the old layout. A new layout was built. It broke down. Things happened and the new layout got fixed. Now we are waiting for something to break again!

• Minecraft and TF2 servers

As most of you know, we bought a Minecraft server in March. Our Team Fortress 2 server is also back online.


By the way, this is our first newspost this year. It was about time for us to post a new one, wasn't it?
