My Best Minecraft story by mattofilms (Matt Cowan)

So I've been playing Minecraft for long time now, started out single player - enjoyed making new things building my worlds, making videos and just having a ball.
Then one day i decided it was time to bite the bullet and try MULTI-PLAYER.
OMG OMG OMG the fun I have had since that day ! (*) ! Never have i laughed so much, screamed so loud or went so long without a toilet brake.
Now you could say I am totally sold on the Multi-player side, and i would say ya - but i do still (love) the single player side of things and - well - I just *_* Minecraft.
So my best Minecraft story is: my Multi-Player experiences and the totally cool people I have met along the way.
Thank you Mojang Thank you Minecraft.
(oh - and thank you MMGN for the opportunity for us to voice our <3 for the game)

Gather around children it's story time. Way back when 1.8 was first released, I downloaded minecraft. I just started my single player world and was amazed at the size and simpleness of the game all I wanted to do was build castles, so I got to work right away. About five days in I was digging in my strip mine breaking blocks in front of me when all of a sudden I brake into my first cave system! I was out of torches, but told myself I was only going to be there for a second to see what was up and leave. I hop down into the biggest cave system I have ever encountered in minecraft bigger than any thing I will see in the future to. Stunned by the sheer size of the cave I completely forgot about everything and only wanted to explore this masterpiece, so I did. I wandered through the twisting corridors and and gazed at gaping ravines that looked like massive tear in the earth. I was mesmerized by all the natural beauty of his place. When all of a sudden some thing moved in the corner of my eye. Suddenly realizing the horrors of minecraft I quickly spun around stone pick in hand ready to meet my attacker head on. But nothing was there. At this point I am scared out of my witts stumbling and sprinting in blind desperation trying to get back to the safety of my strip mine. I run, and jump my way to nothing I was lost in the vastness of the cave with no known way out. Then i heard a noise, a noise that I had never heard before, it sounded like a marshmallow getting violently sucked up a vacuum tube. It came from the left I turn to run from what ever horrible creature was coming for me down the hall. Mid-turn I hear it again, but this time closer. I finish my turn only to come face to torso with the most terrifying monstrosity I have ever seen an Enderman. Instincts and adrenaline take over I start screaming and swinging my pick ax like a mad man. I land a hit it disappears, I take it as a sign from Notch to get the **** out of there. I am two steps into my escape when BAM he reappears to my right hits me, Steve takes the hit like a champ and powers through continuing his dash for freedom. I see a light at the end of the tunnel (literally) and put the last of my hunger behind this sprint jumping through right as the Enderman reappears to smack my silly. I was falling falling for what felt like hours before smack I hit water deep water I was saved, I had escaped nightmares and survived the impossible I felt invincible! Then it hit me I was lost at the bottom of some God forsaken ravine with three on the food meter, a half broken stone pick, three fourths a health meter, and a terrifying new enemy to deal with. After a little thought I decided to take the stone I mined and build a noob tower strait out of the place. About five minutes and 56 blocks of cobble later I broke through the crust and made my way back home.

This was my favorite experience because it showed how multifaceted minecraft is. It is beautiful, simple, creative, and laid back. Wail also being dark, mysterious, and terrifying.

After getting low on iron tools I headed off to my drop shaft mine entrance. I was just starting to mine out what happens to be one of the biggest mine my friends and I have created. By accident I slipped into a room full of lava. I swam over to the edge nearly dead and was pulling myself out when a creeper explodes next to me releasing water upon me and saving my life from the horrible burning lava of death. I survived with half a heart and love that creeper for the rest of my minecraft life. <3

My best story... hmmm, would have to be when me and 2 other friends were in creative mode making all manner of things, like giant creeper faces made from pumpkins and glass lava houses. and one of my friends moved away so she left her creations behind.... me and my friend were feeling mean so we took about 6x 64 tnt and blew her house UP! it was an amazing explosion it acctually made my pc stall a little... thats probably one of my best ones :)

My friends and I were bored one evening, so we decided to hop onto Minecraft after a Battlefield 3 session. We browsed forums for a random server, put the server IP in and on the adventure we went.

The server looked pretty full with restrictions. (no griefing etc) We asked a friendly mod if we could have some rights to move us up to a high ranking so we could "help" other players. The person made a bad decision as we de-ranked the person who gave us rights, kicked him out of the server, and then the massacre of griefing began.

We planted most structures with TNT and detonated it.... it was like a nuke hahahah was the best day of my Minecraft life! :) :)

I have 4 versions of minecraft. 2 of them are on my computer and the other 2 are on my usb.The ones on my computer are 1.2.4 and 1.2.5.I play the minecraft 1.2.4 first.Then I made a world called 'cool32'. When I first spawn in it, i saw sheep and flowers. I started to chop down some woods to make some wooden planks. Then i made a crafting table to make pickaxe. Then I chop down more wood blocks to make a house. Through three quarters,I finish all my wooden planks. It was night time. When i finish chopping down some woods, I saw a spider. It started chasing me. I went directly to my unfinished house. Luckily i made a door earlier. I went in quickly and close the door quickly. Then i saw it on top of my house. So i quickly switch to my pickaxe and kill it and I went outside to get its stuff. Then i finish building my house. Now i am letting my second brother to play. Once he a found a mineshaft in the same world we play. :)

My minecraft story takes place on a multiplayer server with many factions owning 'nations'. The nation i had been accepted to was a prosperous one, full of joy and determination. Then one night, disaster struck. Our once peaceful village-nation had become a slaughter field.

Our nation losing much of it's power went into a full retreat, we hid in the mountains and trained, fighting creepers, enchanting weapons.

Finally, we were ready. We left in the dark hours of the night, our armoury upgraded to the maximum potential. And we struck with brutal force. our nation, after many days of fighting, was once again ours. We had won and honour was restored to our nation.

That is my minecraft story. [MOG]

I booted up the Alpha build of Minecraft for the first time and created my world. I spawned in to see that my world was a bunch of islands. The water was shallow enough to walk on the sand underneath so I explored a few nearby islands though darkness came quick and I knew from Seananner's youtube videos that I had to build myself a house. I hurriedly dug myself a hole in a mountain and blocked myself in for the night.

Over the next few days I learnt alot and got more adventurous though each night I would return to my original cave to be safe. As I grew tired of being above ground trying to find coal for torches I felt the desire to go down. So I made myself a pickaxe, went to the back of my cave, and dug straight down. I got a long way down when suddenly I fell. It wasn't far, maybe a 6 block drop but I wasn't worried. I had found my first cave system. I was so excited! Though the reality of the matter began to set in. I forgot ladders, I had only 2 torches on me and I forgot to mark the entrance to the tunnel I used to get into the caves. I was totally stuck with no way out. I thought of quitting the game right there- making a new world and learning from this experience. Though if I was to survive in this game I'd have to solve this problem. Then it occurred to me. I was on an island! My whole map was a bunch of islands.

I equipped my nearly worn out pickaxe and began to dig a staircase up out of the cave system. I was in total darkness and my pickaxe was broken but I kept going. Suddenly water gushed in and I swum out of the cave. I was only 8 blocks below sea level so I hurriedly swam to the top and the sun was shining. I still had no idea where I was. I did half of a lap around the island to realise that it was MY island. The same island that I dug straight down from. I rushed up into my house and blocked off my suicide tunnel for another day.

My best story?

I won a Hunger Games against some random guy with some diamond armor + diamond sword who kept abusing me over chat, telling me that I was some hacker because I was climbing a pillar of cobble (that had ladders on the other side he couldn't see).

I had killed no one throughout the match and just mined deep below near the eastern border. I had approximately one stack of iron. I was the monster class, which meant that I could roam freely at night without mobs attacking me.

After getting bored of hiding, I went to the surface, now in some random snow biome. I built a small tower (~30 blocks high) and put up a small defense at the top (which was just my furnace and crafting table, can't see it in the pic though). I crafted ladders and placed them on the side of the pillar that held the tower up.

As I was collecting snowballs, the last person left in the games showed up at my tower, and he was running at me. I quickly climbed the tower, blocked him off and he was left at the bottom. He then took out his bow and arrows and tried to shoot me.

I threw a few stacks of snowballs at him, significantly weakening him. He eventually ran out of arrows and tried to build a tower of his own. It was about half the size of mine and within jumping distance.

I used the remainder of my snowballs, then pulled out my iron sword. I ran to the edge of my tower, jumped, and hit him, causing a critical hit thing. He was trying to hit me, but only got me a couple of times. I just didn't stop clicking until I hit him and he fell off the tower, to his death.
His tower and where he fell from.

My Tower

Yeah, fun times. ^_^

THIS ONE TIME AT BANDCAMP.. I mean.. In Milky's minecraft world he had created, I took over and built the COOOLEST house. It was about 3 levels and had a tall look out that went above the clouds. *_* Then I decided that it was time for my little minecrafty character dude/dudette to explore the world so I started building a quarry. This took me about 4 hours while Milky was at the movies (this is what happens when you go out and leave me alone with the xbox I have no self control [Derp] ) then built this maaasive quarry that went all the way down to bedrock with stairs coming back out. Everyone was jealous of my quarry as it was the best in the world ever [MOG]

Then I had enough GOLD to build some railways. this was my plan for a big escape, I laid out sooo many railways. soo many. and managed to get about 20 blocks from my house [WTF]

I then realised i would need ALL THE GOLDZ ;O and set about SPELUNKING I spelunked day and night to the point our kittehs were like feed me [Rage] and id say NO I NEED MORE GOLD [Rage]

then eventually I got enough gold after dying approximately twice. on peaceful mode (collective [Facepalm] ) and finally making my way back from the spawn point ..

I then had enough gold to make enough railways, it was a glorious day *_* I made the railway with a huge station platform and it carried me back and forth between mine and Milky's houses (clearly mine was still the best house tho as girls are way better interior decorators).

My little character then decided that after all this hard work, just like jesus he needed a day of rest and recreation so I started to build a church that was going to mark the centre of my city. but then this massive tree was in the way and I couldnt keep building because my eyes were just covered with tree branches :@ damn tree. Then I wasnt allowed to burn it down to the ground because Milky was like "rawr rawr you cant ruin my stuff ruin your own stuff fire is bad mmm'kay" so I gave up building a church and decided my little charater could be athiest instead.

AND THEN....

I was watching some minecraft videos and watched cool people build citys and decided that I wanted a city. So we started on that. I have currently built a hotel that has 3 stories all with little rooms and beds in them and some little balconies. we also made a subway leading down into the railway with a sign and all that.

but thats how far we've got because like Minecraft the STORY NEVER ENDS =D

It's not something i done, So i don't know if this entry is better off put on be-half of @Marge

Anyways, It all starts back in CoD: Black Ops (i know right) when i was playing Zombies with Mira, Kenni and Matt, I kept getting random drops and kept saying "Kenni, RPGESUS PROVIDES!" and just kept annoying him with the whole RPGESUS thing.

So i inboxed Marge and asked if he'd like to trolololol Kenni by constructing a RPGESUS sign right where Kenni was building something [Derp]

One of my favourite Minecraft stories was probably when it was my very first time launching Minecraft, I was so excited! When I first spawned in, little of me had no experience so like I was just marvelling! At Every! Single! Thing! :D

It was all like "Woahh, what's the pink thing! PIGGYY!! GIMME BACON" And I start attacking a pig... and then "Woahhh, that's a sheeeep!" And I get like a stare off.... with a sheep..... And then "WOAHHH, that green thing looks soo cute!" And we all know what happened next. :( The creeper literally made my heart stop, I just was NOT expecting it to blow up at all... X_X

I was so inclined to play on Peaceful after that... but I still thought the creepers were cute. ;)

Right so me and three mates are playing Minecraft (I'm a newbie) but i was getting through pretty darn well. I was creating a farm and i made a crop farm. My mate, Thomas made a poultry farm. My other mate Daniel made a zombie farm when he found enough zombie spawn. Any way i went into my awesome as hell ice fortress, (just a hut) and theres a creeper in there that mustve spawned. IIt blw up, what do you know theres a hole that no man has ever ventured down im sure of. MASSIVE hole. It was a heaven though and i built a house down there (despite cave spiders) and then my friend comes in and puts lava under my house (on stands) then the server screwed up, We all naturally reconnected, and it was goooooooooooooooooone. It was the best cave jam packed with clumps of diamond, gold, iron, lapis, and dirt. (dirt tended to be in bigger clumps. [I had a fun time creating a water system, hitting my friend with a stone pickaxe untill the water pretty much swept him away and he was stuck down there!!! :D {This is a true story it happened not too long ago.}]) :)

Wait i didn't put enough detail. D:
I had a hut, Creeper spawned in it and when i found it, it blew up, which made a crater of sorts with a hole in the wall that was sitting behind the wal and some dirt, it was a cave in which led to this huge cave connected to more little caves and a lake, (i made an obsidian machine aswell :D) I made a hole right down took the bedrock away (adminblock ) and I put water in the hole, *swam out and made a stream pushed mate in he was swept down the hole and Other mate (Josh) put lava under the house that looked like a Queenslander. :) It brightened up the place. (The lava) The server screwed up we lost 3 hours woth of greatness. :E But it was fun! [monkey]
