Where the hell do you guys find any gold? I can not find it for the life of me.

That stuff is rare. Not as rare as diamonds of course, but it's still pretty damn hard to find. I'm pretty sure that the deeper you dig, the more chance you'll have of finding gold. I find a lot of deposits of that red ore way deep down that I can't find anywhere else.

I return with an epic tale children, gather around...

I was walking down the back side of the mountain where my castle stands atop, near the bottom I found a small opening. So I slowly make my way in, setting down some torches as I being to burrow through the stone and mud in hopes to find some iron, as that was what I was look for the most. When all of a sudden, I break through to a large room. I've now entered the vast cavern. Setting up more torches it becomes clear this place is huge!

I start by checking out the few expanding tunnels that stood before me. Stopping after a while with no luck to check the next. Soon enough I find a few waterfalls, lava patches etc. Along with of course the Iron I was hoping for.
I get so far and so much to think it's time to head back to camp, I have alot of gear here. (Nice amount of Gold Fabio. :wink: )
There was one problem... I have no idea which way I came from.

Thus began me aimlessly walking in circles. I would get so far and just fall down a hole, putting me back where I was 10 minutes ago! This continued for a long time, with each tunnel I'd find with a torch would lead to a dead end; where I'd started and wondered off in excitement of the huge find. This said I did find alot of Iron, Gold and several diamonds along the route back.

To make matters worse I wasn't on peaceful anymore... and would constantly hear grunts, moans and snarls coming from the darkness. Luckily I had found several mushrooms, along with the already hefty amount of cooked meat.

Things were still looking grim, as I was starting to run out of tools. My Pickaxes were running scarse. I had but 2 left, both of which not at great condition.
This was it, I was going to have to just start digging upwards. I'd managed to get to a point that I rememered from earlier, the 2 waterfalls and lava stream.
I step off to the side and begin digging up diagonally.... suddenly! Sand falls onto me... switching to my shovel I move all this away.

Stars! I saw stars. I was finally above ground! I make my way out, but to no idea where I am still, this wasn't where I had entered... nothing looked familier. I spot a lavafall coming from the nearby mountain, I thought to climb the side to get a better view of the land. And by chance my home. :C

As the landscape loaded for my ancient laptop... I spot several possible new cave entrances (circles). Picture below:
<div class='spoiler_toggle'>Spoiler: click to toggle</div><div class="spoiler" style="display:none;">

</div> Also, not pictured... my castle, if I were to turn around here, there it would be. High atop it's own spot, if it were night time still the torches would have lead me home.

So I rush back to my humble castle. What a sight it is... I rush up, open the doors and what do I see?
... Sheep, everywhere. Oh well, they can be my castle guards.

Thanks dude, I plan on expanding soon.

And very nice place! Really liking the look of that one.

I found a large cavern myself.
I spent most of today exploring and lighting it up.
I explored every inch of it, it was larger than any cave i've ever seen, there was coal, iron, and gold veins everywhere, I took almost 100 iron ore back with me and a bit of coal, thanks to that cave I have all iron tools and armor. Didn't care much for the gold since it's only as useful as stone in terms of tools. I also found one tiny bit of red stone, but as I found out, it is useless with a stone pickaxe, what a waste.
I'm really suprised I didn't find any Dungeons or Diamond, it was huge and went all the way to the bedrock. Also suprisingly, there was no lava, but there was ALOT of waterfalls and water streams, and I mean alot, it was like a water cavern. And even more suprising, there were no monsters to be found, only many sheep and pigs who managed to get in.

actually it's only as useful as wood.

Is it even used for crafting anything useful?

uhh... if i buy Minecraft on one computer do i half to buy it again on my other computer?

Alright, here's the video of my new, bad ass house. It's still in need of some landscaping, and I'm adding a pool. What you don't see in the video is that it's in a perfect location; by trees, a herd of sheep, lots of caverns (that I have yet to mine through). Before this, I had not made a true 'house' to act as a hub for everything, so now I have one. I had a sheep pen, too, but they all escaped.

Gold blocks for thrones/statues.

Currently trying to complete my lava farm, but constantly going underground for lava scares the *censored.2.0* out of me. Those new sounds added in the update make me piss my pants.

Zorua reminds me though.
If I made a world on a friend's account (he's letting me use it until I buy the game), would I be able to access this world from my own account?
I'm using the client by the way, and the world doesn't seem to be connected to that particular account.

Nah, I'm almost positive you'd lose it.

I used a public account for the first month or so and then when I bought the game my worlds did in fact transfer over. So I believe you're safe.

Yes. You just gotta copy the save file.

@Gnome about gold, oh I see, well i'm not one for decorations in survival, I like to build stuff like that in creative.

@Gnome & Bdubs about worlds, alright great!

Oh, the video is up now. Just putting it up front, again, check it.
