Aftermath

Final thoughts:

Pros:  Large explosion, roughly one chunk in size.  Majority of resources preserved.

Cons:  No countdown to escape.  Very expensive (roughly the cost of 8x diamonds and 1x TNT per use).  Only minor damage to structures in the vicinity of the explosion.

Results:  Negative.  Production cost outweighs benefits.

It's a good thing this is far away!

I discovered a massive Tainted biome in my Natural Magic world on Minecraft.  It's a long way from my home, but this is still worrying.

Now this is a boat!

This is a party boat I found on ArcheAge.  It has a larger space than Goldshire in World of Warcraft, it looks like.

I... Love... Thaumcraft...?

Why must a mod so awesome be so freaky?

Well, this is unexpected.

I have no idea what this is.  I just started the Natural Magic modpack from AT Launcher, and this is just a short distance from the cave I've claimed as my home.

I Love Modded Minecraft

Playing with the Minecraft mod Botania today, and I decided to fight its boss monster, the Gaia Guardian.  I wish I'd got a screenshot during the fight but I was too busy not dying, because it hits like a TRUCK, even with enchanted armor and a Notch Apple's regeneration and absorption buffs.  I did, however, finally get to craft the mod's flight tiara, and chose a probably very familiar wing for its appearance.

Cue the music.  I'm sure you know which song.

Thaumcraft why?!

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF...

Damn, Thaumcraft. You creepy.

There I was, sitting at my computer, fiddling with the 1.7.10 edition of Thaumcraft, researching and working to get some cool shielding stuff unlocked. I backed out of my research table to go look for things to scan for research points when all of a sudden, the edges of my screen go dark and a rapid heartbeat starts thumping in my headphones. The text "Strange whispers reveal secrets to you" appears on screen. I go down the stairs to my storage room and the black edges and the heartbeat starts up again. Fight or flight response, go!
