seed issue? you mean that you can see seeds in smp because that was intended I think so you couldn't copy the world wich is stupid in my opinion tl;dr it's not an issue it's intended

*shakes head in shame*

Really now? Minecraft shouldn't have won against any of those games.

ok im going to try to keep my head here... ARE YOU COMPLETELY FRIKEN RETARDED i don't see you doing any games of your own. not even a mod. yet you claim this award is not deserved and he is not worthy!!!! * deep breathing *

so you are telling me that you think he doesn't deserve an award because a major BETA update seems broken to you. and just in case you don't know what BETA means... IT MEANS UNSTABLE PRE-RELEASE BUILD!! and he did not " accidentally broke his child's spine ("Adventure update") and a few months later left it." by your analogy he brought it to the doctor jeb, a focused and devoted man who has brought us more productivity in three updates than in the last four. notch saw that his fans want more so he handed it over to jeb because he is more focused and better connected to the modding community. i don't call that abandonment i call it care for his "child" and for his fans.

what do you consider as broken anyway? this is the official recorded bug list for 1.8

New bugs:

• There is a memory leak mainly occurring on Linux 32 bit.
• The destruction animation for chests is missing.
• Lighting persists in water even after the light source is removed.
• Experience orbs when dropped don't drop in a stack like items do, so when a player dies when they have a large number of experience, each orb has to be processed individually. This will cause a high amount of lag, especially for SMP servers.
• Double chests placed before 1.8 on multiplayer servers all appear to players to be facing the same direction, even when they should be rotated by 90 degrees.
• The Item Selection screen in the new Creative game mode is missing pine and birch leaves, tall grass, double slabs, monster spawner, snow cover, and both huge mushroom blocks.
• NPC villages occasionally spawn over partial water areas and 'float'

nope not seeing any game-breakers there to rationalize your comments

its not like this was beta 1.6 now

so respond to me to rationalize your argument

whoa that was a long rant 0.o

Yay for Notch!

Look, if you don't think he deserves this then go play the games that everyone always expects will win awards. A few years ago massive developers made games which 10 years ago would have been beyond dreams, and whilst all the modern, high CPU console games display phenomenal levels of gameplay and graphics in so many cases, Notch decided to make a game made of 1m square cubes. This game became a global phenomenon, despite a somewhat wrongly blacked reputation at times because of bugs (Hey, it was BETA, that's what happens!).
On top of that, the game allows you to do pretty much anything! You can build a house or make a computer within a computer, and if you don't like something, it's sandbox; you don't have to do it. That's what annoys me when people say that <update> ruined the game - You don't have to touch <item> or <item> or <content>!

Now you tell me that a game that has achieved worldwide fame and made millions using 16x16 graphics does not deserve an award.

"triple-A titles as Call of Duty: MW3"

are you f****** kidding me -.-

Quote from Balduran

*Sigh* Should've seen this coming. I firmly believe he did not deserve that award.

Quote from Netherspawn

Notch "born" his child: Minecraft. For the first year, he cared about it and developed it at a decent speed. Unluckily, when he got rich, he just started to ignore his child. Later, he accidentally broke his child's spine ("Adventure update") and a few months later left it. And he gets a reward. Yeeeeaaah.

You misunderstood what I said, I was saying that bedrock in the End stays on fire forever, not that it is only in the end. and any bedrock in the end can be set on fire, but I will try for the portal frame there for sure.

Quote from sketchygio2

I highly doubt this 'secret' has anything to do with dragon eggs or the end, its probably something really insignificant, but just for the sake of going on a stretch...

if bedrock can stay on fire indefinitely in the end, and we know that bedrock forms there when you destroy a crystal and when the egg spaws, someone could try setting all those bedrock bits on fire?

Quote from Burium

Bedrock in the end, not the nether.

Quote from OneEye0pen

Guys! I went searching around in the nether a bit. This COULD be it. Not sure. I definitely didn't realize this lol.
Mushrooms spawn on top of the Bedrock in the nether. See:
