What does your Minecraft base say about you?

[Captain Pirate]

I was building a ton of underground caverns when I first got the game, back last winter when I was still kinda depressed.
Now, feeling the exact opposite of depressed, my old underground base in my new world is abandonded in favor of an above ground one. I found a sort of upside-down mountain: It was connected to the ground by a 6x2 rectangle, and grows bigger until the top looks like the base of a mountain, uprooted and balanced upside down. I've built a castle at the top, and now it looks epic.

Right now I live in a cleared out dungeon... So I'm in to home-intrusion

My house has a garden and decking outside. Like a lovely cottage. Though it's built into a mountain, but that's for convenience.

 

[AnAngryMoose]

I don't build bases. I'm nomadic and spend the night living in a burning forest that way the lighting's good and i'm protected. This really says nothing about me because I prefer to stay indoors.

Last time I tried that I burned down the forest as far as my render distance could see and beyond.

My main base is a cosy little homestead with a farm, a quarry and a massive tower lined with redstone torches so I don't get lost. So I guess, I like my comfort?

On another world I have a series of underground bunkers and am currently working on an underground Doom Fortress. So I guess I don't like the light either

That I'm homeless, mainly due to the fact that I dont play minecraft

But I did build a basic one in the demo, so I guess that one could of been called "caravan-esq".

I tend to build neat little cottages, next with cobblestone paths that lead to mines and watch towers. This probably says that I enjoy being comfortable and in a familiar environment but I can explore when need be.

I tend to build massive underground bunkers. My last masterpiece in my minecraft world (sadly deleted due to forgetful partition reorganising) featured a hidden entrance to my evil meeting room and my secret quarters (for the republic of stephen, something I made up on Educational networking site Edmodo with friends at school).

So basically this means I am a recluse who has a power complex.

My recent Minecraft base is a giant towering penis....
so in short...it says that I'm a huge dick...


interesting

 

[c_westerman13]

i have, across various maps:

-a sprawling underground fortress with more traps than 4chan
-a 40m-high pyramid filled with puzzles and traps
-a small, unassuming library containing a portal to a towery palace in the nether
-an oriental-style palace accessible only by a single bridge
-a gothic themed castle with walls 3 blocks thick (stone-lava-stone) to screw over creepers
-a 1:3 replica of the cathedral of notre dame (exterior only, less-than-half finished)
-and finally, a large sanctaphrax-based floating rock with a city on top, laced with caves

what *does* this say about me?

 

[CharrHearted]

I have a huge obsidian fortress in the nether surrounded by lava with spawner's inside so during a multiplayer game I can watch adventurers die trying to get to me.

 

[Cowabungaa]

That I'm a pragmatist. I just build a little cottage close to a mine and whatever project I'm working out, currently a big submarine. This one has a roof garden though, it was a nice touch and I need some sugarcane for books anyway. Some grain for bread too, can't be too careful when mining.

 

[AloneInTheKeyOfMinor]

Well, my base is built entirely out of Obsidian, so I guess I'm paranoid about Creepers.

 

[Lawnchair]

i have a huge nazi-like fortress with castles and watchtowers around and on top of it.
underneath there are literally THOUSANDS of tunnels. The longest one took me about 6 minutes just from one end to the other.

i think this means i need to get some fresh air and that i want to rule the world.

 

[aarontg]

That I'm very indecisive. I had three different bases that I tried to build including an under water base and I never finished any. Then I had the good fortune of finding out that the fire physics are very dodgey inside my wooden house...

 

[Gabanuka]

Since I build huge castles I'm gonna say I like feeling secure. Or I'm compensating for somthing.

 

[TilMorrow]

Welp the only version of Minecraft I can play at the moment is the demo so apart from the bases I built in the side of mountains whilst looking for a good mining location I guess all I've been doing is digging down... "Gotta Dig!"

 

[Bad LT.]

All of my mines are connected to a central hub of my house. Every hallway is a square 3x3 tunnel, with walls made of only smooth stone, and torches places exactly every 6 blocks, on both sides. I have a store room with a double chest for each item, labeled with a sign. My vertical mineshaft is 9x9 with a glass floor and ceiling to let sunlight in, and new floors every 10 blocks.

So um... Precise maybe?

-Snip, double post-

 

[thedevilscousin]

Well my main base (which is in a save i haven't touched in a month) consists of a huge castle with tunnels all under it and over the castle i have a floating gold island.... Just 'cause it was kinda cool and i had no idea to do with all the gold i had. Also i remember building a recreation of my room, don't think it ended well.
