Couldn't they flood it with lava so monsters don't spawn (light) / die when they spawn?

You can't make an infinite lava wells anymore. You can dump magma rivers down caves before exploring, but you have to mine there first. On the other hand if you give people two surface water sources they can pull enough water out to flood the map.

Grr...

I have to set graphics and draw distances to low, and my fog level to dense to prevent intense lag.

What's going on?

Ooh, Google Moderator!
Thanks to Deepa on IRC, I set up a Google Moderator thing where people can submit suggestions and vote on other people’s suggestions.

I’m not sure if this will end up being used or not, but it sure does look useful:

If it ends up being used, I’ll link it from the minecraft site.

Incidental bugfix!
Today was a very slow day, with me working out some of the kinks in Multiplayer and starting to work on reducing the network usage.

For the last couple of versions of Minecraft (or longer?), there’s been a bug where the player would get stuck in a weird stuttering mode sometimes.

While working on the multiplayer fixes, I ran into some code which looked suspicious (keeping track of the last zone a player was in), and it turned out to be totally broken in several places, such as when the player got teleported (entering/exiting a vehicle) or when loading and the player is right on the edge of a zone.

So I fixed that, and released client version 1.0.7. Let me know how it works in the comments, please. :-D

think I need a verkställande direktör
Are you Swedish? Are you business oriented, have you been involved in running one or more companies? Do you know how to talk to government tax people and understand what they reply? Can you work out a legal contract, make suggestions on sound investments and headhunt talented people? Do you like computer games, and understand the internet as a medium as opposed to treating it like a traditional medium?

If so, I want to talk to you!

Sorting through the support chaos
As of today, I no longer offer per-case support on technical issues. I still want to get informed about bugs (support@mojang.com), but the amount of email I receive is higher than my capacity to reply, so I’ve been falling more and more behind.

I will of course, still handle payment issues, though. That’s been moved to payment@mojang.com. If you have a payment issue that I haven’t replied to, please send it to payment@mojang.com so I can find it.

For the future, I will look into alternative options such as setting up a bug tracker. Email just plain sucks for support.

And as always, if you want to send me a personal message, email markus@mojang.com, or reply to one of my blog posts (I read almost all comments), or even better; send me a message on twitter (@xnotch).

So how do I make the things that show formed up in a 3x3 square?

Fill up your inventory crafting template with wood to make a crafting table.
