Leave signs in places, odd shrines, have a secret yw and recruit people

**Lord-Loss**

Put on a skeleton skin and suprise people while holding a bow.

I couldn't find enough evidence to incriminate anyone, so I tested the lightning theory again.

Because the Ski lodge has a stone roof, the non-flammable roof actually prevents the rain from putting out the fire.
Fire does not seem to be as nerfed as I thought. A single ignition point (even at the corner) was enough to burn down 90% of the ski lodge. In the rain.

Who owns the ski lodge? I can help to rebuild it...

**shrike**

My dear Professor Doctor P. Warthog owns it, we're very devastated, he's living in my house now.
Not complaining, though

**InquisitorVaron**

Out of intrest what are the names?
Seems
My lightning theory isn't so foolish after all

names?

**InquisitorVaron**

Of the suspects.

**Ma55ter_fett**

Not really any of your business.

So don’t stress it.

**shrike**

Darkinnit, Mrboouk, TheElusiveYakface and Cheesus309.

**InquisitorVaron**

I just want to help with the investigation. Not trying to name and shame. Unless you have something to hide

**shrike**

TBH, anything you can do to investigate, dark can do better

Let him sort it, there's nothing us mortals can do other than confess or provide a witness statement

**Avatar 720**

We can scream and run around in circles.

**Lord-Loss**

My house is coming along nice. I do love snow biomes.

**InquisitorVaron**

Forming angry militias?

yeah, but that gets boring after the first few days.

I try to mix things up a bit with a good bit of arm flailing, but even then that only keeps me amused for a week or so.

angry mobs is the way to go. Torches and pitchforks, march around looking purposeful to nowhere in particular until the culprit is caught. Maybe a few virgins sacrificed to speed things up a bit.

**darkinnit**

The Ski Lodge's structure is now mostly repaired. Although I did most of it from memory. It needs a few interior walls, some step blocks and any decorations replaced. More dark wood is available at the tree farm nearby.

I also put down a lot more torches, because every time I went in there (in the backups before the fire), there were mobs everywhere.

None of the glass was broken, it had just done that thing where it shrinks when it's not attached to anything. The piston door was already like that before the fire :-/ so I haven't touched it.

**InquisitorVaron**

Good job

**Avatar 720**

I have 3 stacks of darkwood and stacks of various other wood if more planks are required for the lodge.

**Anvildude**

The Mushroom Forest is begun/complete (it should be much, much bigger) in Khazak whatever. The Dwarf city. Careful when going in, though, because there may be mobs, and you can't see very far.

Also, anyone can tell me what the button is that prints MC, like the above picture? I want to show some of what I've been doing in Creative mode.

**SagesStone**

Assuming you have windows here.

F2 takes a screen shot, F1 before it will remove the HUD for a clearer shot.

Then you can find it by opening run and going to %appdata%, you want to go to the .minecraft folder within the roaming one. Should be easy enough to find the screenshots from there.

**Anvildude**

f2. Thanks. Knew it was one of the f keys, just forgot which one.

One thing that I've been very, very annoyed with, is that my Windows 7 has for some reason decided to hide my AppData folder, so for a while I couldn't get to it without doing a Documents search.

**Lord Harrab**

Still exploring the mine under my house, it has a revine and tunnels branching off everywhere. Lots of Iron and coal seams in the walls too.

**Matt.Kingsley**

where is your house, per chance. Sounds very similar to a mine I found

**Lord Harrab**

I think i posted the co-ordinates earlier, but maybe we'll run into each other while down there.

**Matt.Kingsley**

Ah, I see, it's just MC generating simialar mineshafts

**InquisitorVaron**

Well type in the search bar %appdata% or find it through the texture packs.

**Lord Harrab**

I just found a pacifist creeper, i took a screenshot, but i can't find the file the picture ended up in.

EDIT: found the folder, but the Screenshot didn't save.

**JohnnoM**

lol, you have no proof now!!!

**Lord Harrab**

Yeah, i was so surprised when i found him in the depths of my mine, he was just chilling and ignored me completely. Kinda annoyed the Image didn't work.

**JohnnoM**

maybe your to camo? Or were you sneaking?
