Ah yes, nice system. The mob cap can really be annoying when you're looking to afk for a while.

Make sure you you know your caves well. If you die, you want to be able to find you death point as quickly as possible.

I'm afraid I couldn't possibly read the crash report, but I'll offer some suggestions.
First of all, tell me when the game crashes. If it only crashes after the loading the world, there's a good chance only the world is broken. There might be ways of fixing that, but you should confirm it first. (Make a separate world and see if it crashes too.)

If the world crashes upon loading the game, I'm not sure what the deal with that is. It's odd because it sounds like the mod worked for a while, but then stopped. For starters just try reinstalling the mod. Can't say it'll work, but it might.

Oh, and ask your son if he was doing anything in particular when the computer froze.

On one (Smp) world I joined recently, the first pickaxe I enchanted got Fortune III (Along with Effeciancy IV and UnbreakingIII). That sort of thing doesn't usually happen, and I was very satisfied.

It was iron, actually, so I had to repair it quite a bit, but it's ok. I hadn't found any diamond at that point, meaning I could make the absolute most out of any diamond ores I found.

I'm afraid I've never put to much effort into one singular build that I've lost. The only practical way that I'd get that upset would be losing ALL of my worlds at once. They are quite valuable to me - Especially my first ones. I'd hate to lose those.

Sorry about your city, by the way. Good luck rebuilding.

I do like it - Especially the walls. The bookcases alternating with logs looks quite nice. The ceiling lighting isn't half bad either. Well done. c:

Eh, it already takes quite a bit of netherrack to make netherbrick. Plus you have to smelt it. I mean, I suppose it's still pretty cheap, but netherbrick is just a block - There's nothing really special about it.

It most certainly should. Soon you won't be able buy a computer that isn't loaded with Windows 8.

I guess someone came up with it, and it was a clever idea, so it stuck around. ;P

Walking is slower than sprinting, which is slower than sprint jumping.

However, sprinting consumes much more hunger than walking, and sprint jumping consumes much more hunger than sprinting.

So walking it technically the most "efficient", as it will get you a certain distance while consuming less hunger than the others.

Eh, this isn't really anything special... Just a few rules and challenges that aren't really new. You should try to come up with more unique rules and challenges for this, as it currently isn't very interesting.

A really long time ago this feature was added due to beds messing with the time incorrectly when you'd sleep in the nether. I don't quite remember what happened, but Notch decided to fix the problem with the most entertaining way possible.

So... I guess the feature was inherited into the End as well.

Ha ha. ;P
I see friendly mobs tend to do that sometimes. I once found a sheep chillin in a cave down at about y = 20.

I once was on a factions server. Through a series of stupid events I eventually found myself in a 2x1 hole in the ground with an enemy above me, slowly shooting me to death. I couldn't do much, and I thought all of my enchanted gear and stuff was gone for good...

Until that is, my dogs bit the enemy from behind, throwing him into the pit with me. It took the help of my two dogs, a sharpness IV sword, and all of the potions I had on me, but I managed to actually kill the guy who I thought had trapped me in my inevitable doom.

Mineshafts are pretty common...
Meh, biomes don't have an relationship between what's underground, so I'd say the rumor probably isn't true. They're just there because they're cool like that.
