I love these threads but always end up missing out. It seems like no matter what I do, I just can't find those damn strongholds. 640-1500 blocks out, 120* from each other....yeah right. I've done a lot of exploring and so far I haven't found a single one, and that's WITH the xray tool and a map generator. Villages are easy as hell to find, since they spawn in mostly flat areas.
