What does your Minecraft base say about you?

My bases are simple and temporary. They serve as simple shelters against zombies. With the occasional mining tunnel system.

I guess this means that I am completely lacking ambition and my life is without any kind of long-term purpose or goal. Which is pretty much true.

Mine is a hollowed out mountain. It says, I have too much time on my hands.

I never build any massive towers, apart from my initial spawn point where it always serves as a landmark/beacon for navigational purposes. Most of my bases are meant to be a little different. I'm halfway through building an underwater pineapple, for instance. My last base was a galleon based on a floating island.

Walls, doors, tunnels, escape routes, cannons, concentric castle structure, hidden safe houses, iron bunkers... I think it says both that I am paranoid and that I have too much time on my hands.

A really nice house with brick walls, several extension rooms, decoration and a greenhouse with wheat and sugar cane...

... Not sure what that says of me, that I secretly desire a modest life maybe? :p

I go big. REALLY big. My private server is a 100x100 arcology basically dropped onto the terrain. Its base conforms to the contours of the land around it, but it goes up almost to the very top of the level.

The outer wall is going to be covered in a coating of obsidian and the interior has about 6 stories of stuff. Its not a castle, its an arcology. The center is a "park" of sorts. The idea of this is to never HAVE to venture outside my base.

This says that I don't like little projects, I like plugging away until I've created something truly worthwhile? That or I'm compensating for a tiny penis.

edit: picture?

My first house was typical, a wooden home. Though i designed it with a second story and large elegent glass windows in the 2nd story bedroom. Then i built an underground tunnel that leads to a tower sticking out of a mountain with a air-boat (non-functional), with a nethergate built on top. Then ontp a passage way that leads to a staircase coming out of a mountain and leading to my currently under constrution sky-castle upon a staircase enclosed by glass all the way up...


Hmm, i wonder what that says about me?

Note, i hate it when the damn explodie cactus monsters spawn in my castle at night!
Also, wish the guard dogs would actually guard instead of sitting and watching all the zombies and skellys that love to infest my castle stroll around next to them... sigh

My bases are always built into mountains near the top or right by the water. Theres a ton of glass allowing for everyone to look inside and pockets dug out where torches are put in (for some reason I dont like torches just hanging on walls that are out in the open). The bases are often compact, having green houses, tree farms, cactus farms, and mines within a short walks distance with the structures easily visible (although the entrances tend to be hidden). I also like lost of water and trees, usually putting in mad made waterfalls and planting trees just outside and on top of my base.

I have no idea what that says about me though

I generally don't stop walking in MC, even at night I keep on the move and attempt to spelunk every cave I find. This doesn't reflect my personality at all because I prefer to stick to what I know and have little sense of adventure.

Well, my current and biggest Minecraft base is a large system of underwater glass domes with posh decoration. It's pretty sweet. A bonus is that it's well lit with glowstone, and no monsters spawn in or anywhere near it.

What does that say about me? I suppose it's that I appreciate aesthetics more than practiality, but I still take practicality in mind when making things for the purpose of beauty. :>

it says that I have too much free time.
a big castle, a BIG quarry, a skull fortress with a lava moat and a swimming pool inside and a big tower as a forward base to spend the night when I can't make it back to the castle.

Usually it's either an underground 7x7, into the side of a cave, or a 20 block high suspended house, usually on the side of a small mountain. Anything that takes me away from "civilization".

Probably because I like isolation. Whether it be pigs, creepers, (Pig creepers? Notch, get to work!) or people, I just like to be away from it all.

I poured lava all over mine, its rudimentary, not really a base more of a..I dug into a mountain and made a room with all my stuff in it, and underground I have a tunnel that is so vast it takes minutes to travel across the whole thing.

Anyways. Yeah. Its like..In this little grotto/paradise surrounded by mountains and I poured lava all over the terrain/lake to make it desolate. I also have 2 sky lava flows and another coming soon.

The only problem is the fucking animals EVERYWHERE.

They try to come inside, I just want to be alone ;-;

Well, when I downloaded the Minecraft demo I built a house, it was very plain with no windows. Out of boredom I shortly blew it up.

My base says I am unimaginative.
