I wrote an article for the site I work for entitled "THE CULT OF MINECRAFT, or HOW I LEARNED TO STOP WORRYING AND LOVE THE CREEPERS." You can find it here, if interested: http://justpressstart.net/?p=684
In the article, I lay down the Ten Commandments of Minecraft. They are as follows:
___
I. DO NOT KILL THY SHEEP. SHEAR THEM AND LET THEM LIVE TO PROVIDE THEE WITH WOOL ANOTHER DAY.
II. DO NOT DIG TOO GREEDILY OR TOO DEEP. THE SKELETON MAN WILL APPEARTH AND SMACKETH THEE UP.
III. DO NOT GO OUTSIDE AT NIGHT. TO GO OUT AT NIGHT IS TO TEMPT SPIDERS FROM THE NETHER TO FEAST UPON THY ENTRAILS.
IV. MAKE USE OF THY ENVIRONMENT. TO WASTE IS TO PERISH.
V. THOSE WHO LIVE BY THE SWORD – TRIUMPH.
VI. ONE WHO VALUES THE PURSUIT OF THE DIAMOND AT THE RISK OF THEIR LIFE IS DESTINED TO LOSE EVERYTHING IN THEIR INVENTORY.
VII. TORCHES WILL GUIDE YOUR WAY – AND KEEP EVIL AT BAY.
VIII. A DUNGEON IS A BLESSING AND A CURSE. DO NOT BUCKLE UNDER THE ONSLAUGHT OF ENEMIES. FACE THE TRIAL AND CLAIM THY REWARD.
IX. DECORATE YOUR HOUSE WITH FLAIR. YOU DESERVE A COMFY PLACE TO RETIRE TO AFTER A LONG DAY OF MINING.
X. THE PIG IS THY FRIEND. HE IS A SOURCE OF PORKCHOPS AND A NOBLE STEED.
THOSE WHO DO NOT ABIDE BY THESE COMMANDMENTS ARE DOOMED TO ROT IN THE NETHER.
___
Now, what I want to know is if you - experienced crafters - have any Commandments to add. What would you have inscribed into the tablets?
Do not dig directly below your feet, lest you fall into lava and suffer an agonizing death
Hah! That's a good one. I think we've all been there.
