when you hear a ssssssssssssss run... do not look for the source, do not run in a different direction, just go straight ahead and hope you are far enough away from your current project to not have to start it over again

When constructing an utterly pointless city, leave markers so you know where everything is.

Yes i am biulding a city for no reason. Also when i say city its really just a citadel so far.

Oh, and...

Netherrack is awesome for beacons and nothing else.

Does anyone know a decent multiplayer server?
I second this request. Lack of a MP server is what keeps me from playing Minecraft. Surely the Escapist has a server?

Dont ever place more than 250 TNT in one spot and blow it up. My world has a nice little crater in the middle of everything now
I am surprised you still have a world, usually that amount will crash the game no matter what you're running on.

OT: Never think "There could be diamond in the next block"
Because it wrecks havoc on ones mind.
My game did in fact crash, but the game autosaves, so when I logged back in I had a nice crater in my backyard

5. always know which button is a sword or a dirt block (in case of magma)
4. you can never have enough of anything, even dirt
3. a bow and arrow is worth more then diamonds
2. make a garden wood is properly the most important raw block
1. GIVE YOUR SELF A PROJECT

Never explore. Just dig. You'll find purpose in the dirt. Not out there. Among the creepers.

Also, TORCHES! ALWAYS CARRRY TORCHES! RUN OUT? MAKE MORE.

Lighthouses.

Always have markers to lead you back to your main camp, and always have an especially large one to point out your spawn point. Usually, I stack two cobblestone pieces on one another, then cover it with torches.

Looks pretty cool from a distance, actually. Reminiscent of the set of torches from Lord of the Rings: Return of the King.
Exactly this!
I'm doing this on my saves, and I got the idea from Return of the King. It really works, and fits with the astheatic.

My Golden Rule though: Put torches everywhere. Do not leave a dark spot while exploring a cave, cause creepers will come, and creep up your shit. Scaring the pants off you in the process.

Bah, most of my rules have been mentioned so i won't bother to mention them, anyways i got couple more:
- Always have enough wood with you when going underground to make a workbench
- It's not cheating if you turn on the peaceful for little time to regenate your health back while carrying gold/diamonds/redstone.

Ascend as soon as you can.

Make sure your above the lava level before you chillean miner your way out.

Don't forget, spiders can climb walls.

always carry 2 buckets when going into cave, one filled with water, the other empty incase you run out of torches and need to improvise light from lava.

MP: NEVER underestimate griefers
Reminds me of a funny story I had once. I had done a huge replcia of tetris early in a MP game, and after I finished it I went on to build a mansion. When I was done with that I came back to see what I expected, the tetris blocks were gone. However in my 35 seconds of absence griefers had gotten to my mansion and deleted it. Cunning bastards move fast.

My golden rules?

1) If you have a bunker-house, glass roof is your friend. Nothing will save you more than seeing that spider/creeper perched on your roof.

2) Always step back after your attack hits.

3) When in doubt, run.
