If you really want to make Minecrafters' heads explode, don't make that checkered pattern quite symmetrical. Or make the roof crenellations just off-centre. :biggrin.gif:
This is the single greatest Minecraft screenshot to date. The ugliest house in the world, surrounded by the flattened, blighted wasteland that was the cost of its creation. Just by looking at it you can feel the suffocating haze of frustration and inconvenience that living here must engender. One lonely pig in the distance, looking on forlornly, but realizing it will find no succor here. Only suffering. And yet what choice does it have, with no other shelter but bare ground stretching as far as the eye can see?
Sir, I'd like to buy you a raw, dripping ham for your efforts.
How about instead of using the door you came in from to exit the house, you must use a seperate door. An iron door, hooked to a lever.... that is also hooked to the foundation of the house (Which, of course is made of TNT blocks covered by Lightstone blocks)
I want to see what happens if you "accidently" spill a bucket of lava when trying to ignite your furnace in the dark.

The post was almost as funny as the thread itself. Thank you.

You should make some sort of massive moat (maybe really deep with lava at the bottom?) around the house; the only way to get across it is by using several dozen TNT in a cannon to fire yourself across.
I vote for increasing the radius of the slowsand area by 3 or 4 blocks, and putting in a fence maze with a lever at each corner. You have to hit all 4 levers to open the iron door that will be in front of the obsidian door. Bonus points if you hook it up to a clock so that it closes if you dont get in fast enough.

Diamonds of his
Were lost, with a hiss

To block the ladders on the outside, why not a ring of lightstone overhang over it. You'd have to break the lightstone to go up all the way.
If you're really bored and cruel you can go overboard on outside lighting and put a ring of lava above the lightstone.. so if the lightstone is broken you get lava on your head.
I had to register just because of this thread... and this very thing just happened to me too. Best house ever.

Flame becomes a fire.
Forge a blade to slay the stranger.
Take whatever we desire.
Move by will alone.
It needs still...
Fences you can't jump over but need to jump over.
ice under the slow stand, to make it even SLOWER.

I look forward to future inefficiencies.
The walls are too efficient - a reed farm and a tree farm allow them to be built too quickly.

Then again that might just set off the TnT.
