I have no idea WHY the OP thinks "1234" would make a good seed unless he loves cold biomes.
I plugged "1234" into Amidst using both a v1.6.4 profile and a v1.7.10 profile.
In v1.6.4 spawn is in a Taiga biome that is totally cut off from the rest of the mainland by a large Ice Plains.
In v1.7.10 (which covers both v1.7 and v1.8) spawn is in the middle of a HUGE Ice Plains.
I then actually created both of these worlds to check Amidsts predictions and it was spot on.
OBTW - it is JUST a coincidence that both world generators place an Ice Plains around the 0,0 point. Every once in a while this type of thing will happen where the same biome will be produced at spawn with different world generators and this is what fuels the, erroneous, theories that there is a way to predict what a seed will produce before actually using the world generator to produce the biome map.

If you aren't part of the solution, then you obviously weren't properly dissolved.
