So? Did every single one of the 1 million+ players have to buy the game. I mean, people paying around $20 for a game who isn't graphically appealing, and has limited options, seems very unlikely, and especially when it's in beta. Is it possible to play for free? If someone has an unused code could they email it to me? Thanks. Edit: Or is everyone playing Minecraft Classic, which is free? I just saw the tiny link on their site.

There have been more than 1 million copies sold, but a lot of them were sold during the alpha stage (which was about $13 USD).
What do you mean by limited options? The game is virtually limitless!

Lol, I just played a bit, and now I can say, "Who cares about graphics", I love tunneling right through a mountain, or building a mountain stronghold. XD I really like this game, even if I only played for 20 min or so. Servers are slow(or something), haven't gotten in a MP game yet.

I might talk with a friend about setting up a server, but I can't give any guarantees.

You can make money off hosting minecraft servers. I'm designing a website for one now. Its called mymcserv mymcserv.com/index.php. (thats their old site). I dont know how good their server is, but there are companies out there. No idea how much they charge either (something I'm working on with them to implement on the website).

Today I found a deep cavern. Took about 128 torches and 74 cobblestone with me before climbing down. What did I find down there? Oh, a lava spring into which I accidentally fell into, and a dungeon. How much more should I dig before I find Diamonds?

So you reached a dungeon? Did you break it? Also,for diamonds,you have to go to layer 16 from bottom,easy way-find bedrock,find the uppermost bedrock,take it as 4,keep jumping and going up till you reach 14 then make a 4 block high vertical mine.I got one full chest of redstone,half chest of gold,5 stacks of iron,one chest of coal and 2 stacks of diamond this way.But,I spent nearly a month on in and it was 1200 blocks long.

I'm lost. Stranded in the middle of nowhere.
Also, this theme's getting tiring. back to the old Daftwind, it is.

Uhh, does MineCraft Alpha work too? If it doesn't, I might consider selling my key at 80% of it's original price and buying the Beta key.

Yeah, shut up. I was just misinformed.

Alpha is the same as beta, and you should be able to upgrade from alpha to beta with said key.

Never mind, we'll have to wait to play together when I can set up a server correctly.

Hey guys. I haven't been to fortunate making my own server. However, join the server below as that's the one I play Multiplayer on normally. It's a small group of players, and we have a nice quaint town/city and keep expanding. We also feature(d): Money System(Eura is our currency) Easy to use Store NPC's(Add items at your price to earn more Eura) Friendly people. Etc... (Some) Plugins were disabled for now to work on fixing lag, some should be back soon. Hope to see you all on soon. Server- tgkmc.dyndns-server.com

Beta, sorry.

Post by The 'Associate' on Mar 4, 2011 4:20:35 GMT
what do you mean by sorry? I DO have beta! But I updated it to 1.3 and the server supports only 1.2.

I mean "sorry" for the confusion and not posting it in the first place. Never mind about trying to play on the server, it just closed all of a sudden, didn't get a warning, just gone... I play on this server now: www.Compkiosk.com. Nice people, and quite organized.
