So here I am in this SMP world, made a house to start with, then started mining, after 2-3 hours, I found no diamonds, I used my most efficient way to use them, and still found none.
To make matters worse, I slipped in a lava pool, lucky for me I got out just in time and died on the ground, my items far away from the lava.
So I spawned back in my house, went down to the mine, got my stuff and continued on, another hour passed, no diamonds to be found.
Right when I was already losing faith, I dug one layer down, no diamonds, I placed a torch since it was getting dark, and was about to type to my friend how I failed my search, but when I did, I found this.
Ignore my childish spam :3
It was a 4 vein diamond
Such ironic and suprising moments, what's yours?
I was on my friend's server, all alone. I still didn't have any diamonds so I decided to go caving. Dug out a gravel wall in a cave I thought I'd already explored and - Bam! A whole new section. I traveled through a lot of it, gathering up all the iron, gold, redstone, lapis, and (you guessed it) diamond! I could find. I was thinking to myself, Wow, this is some incredible luck! After about 30 diamonds, I decided to head up. I took a route I hadn't been to before (fell down a ravine, and wasn't completely sure how to get back). I ran through, placing torches as I went. I got to a larger section in the cave where I encountered some zombies and creepers, and, since I didn't want to deal with them, ran right past. However, as I was running, a skele knocked me into a 1x1 pit with... a creeper. I had no time to react before I was dead. I thought, Yep, I'm the luckiest man alive. *Ragequit*
More of a "spoke too soon" moment than an ironic one, but it works
