Ad Gold and Leather are both infinitely renewable, while Diamonds are a limited resource- you'd rather have things like Unbreaking and Efficiency on Diamond picks, and use Gold for 'special use' tools like Silk Touch and Fortune.

Precisely, you have double the chance (or you can try it at half the level and get an equal chance) of getting silk touch with gold and gold is WAY easier to acquire.

For enchantment. For ease of obtaining, no

Yes, you can farm gold, but ranching cattle is easier and provides non-poisoned food to boot, and a source of milk and (in the case of mooshrooms) infinite food as long as you have at least one of them.

or you can just afk overnight in the gold farm and wake up with usually a full inventory of gold nuggets

//edit, tremendous progress on the temple today!

Start it with #view any text you put under it will appear as a caption on the picture.

If you just meant having the sign visible and not make a screen shot just start and end it with the same special character (~, -, *, etc)

I was about to link to the wiki for the map's signs like this:
http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Programs_and_Editors/Tectonicus#Special_Signs

But in doing so I read it and realised you can do adjustments to the vertical angle of views and also specify night views. Neat!

Ok so I just visited the server for the first time in about a week.

JanJe2, you need to seriously fix up the mess you made to my nether tunnel, namely repairing all the destroyed glass.

The farm is a great idea but its an eyesore, please fix the surrounding area that you managed to destroy.

I went on to do for the first time in a week too, someone built something right on the very edge of my house by 2 block, as well as destroying some of the stuff inside it :(

I now have a blue sheep farm at my end of the nether tunnel. IF you guys want to go there and shear or breed a few blue sheep while I'm not on doing that, please feel free to do so. Just for the love of all that is good and sheepy, don't let them out, and don't kill them.

Actually yeah, if you want to shear any of the sheep, the payment is that you have to breed a new sheep. Hehe.

Whcih would matter if they were actually in the nether. but they aren't. So the grass grows back.

In that case they don't need to breed new to replace the ones they shear cause it just grows back the same colour.

.. duh?

But breeding new ones increases the rate of replacement. I have five at the moment, the ideal number is twelve. I'm just saying if you want to shear them, breed another one. It's the price of admission.

I'm gonna have to create a fenced/walled off grazing area specifically for them and lead them out to it if I get twelve though. AT the momen they're merely within the castle walls, as it were, and it's enough space maybe, but it's still a bit cramped.

Actually I might end up creating a sheep farm that has twelve sheep of each kind of colorr if the sever wil let me (I don't know how that'll effect despawning issues). Just so I have plenty of wool to play around with.

Nah it should be fine, just remember to use full blocks or double fences to avoid the annoying sheep jumping to over pens...

Glass panels are more numerous = requires less sand to be smelted own.

Here you go, the full Enderdragon battle (well 9 minutes of the highlights anyway - the full 30 minutes would have been a bit more dull).

Also, Endstone may not be destroyed by the Enderdragon, but it does fly through it. Obsidian is what blocks it.
