TEMPLES MOTHERFUCKERS
Desert Temples mostly consist of Wool, Sandstone, Chiseled Sandstone, Smooth Sandstone and Sandstone Stairs. In the middle of the temple is a block of blue wool. Underneath this blue wool is a 'secret' chamber with 4 chests which contain very valuable loot and a Stone Pressure Plate connected to a 3x3 grid of TNT. Some treasures found in temples include Emeralds (rare), Diamonds, Iron Ingots, Gold Ingots, Rotten Flesh and Bones.
Desert Temples are the most valuable structures the game generates, as each temple contains 4 chests with highly valuable items. The colored wool, and 9 blocks of TNT in the trap are also fairly worthwhile loot.
When attempting to access the chests, the player must take care not to step on the Pressure Plate at the bottom of the pit. Just below the sandstone is 9 blocks of TNT - Touching the Pressure Plate will activate the TNT, killing the player unless properly protected, and destroying all four of the chests, including their loot. It is ill-advised to enter the treasure chamber by breaking the blue wool, or any of the eight surrounding blocks. Instead it is best to dig down to the side, and then break the pressure plate when it comes into reach.
An alternative method for retrieving the loot safely uses a bucket of water. By breaking one of the orange wool blocks immediately around the blue wool block and placing water in its place, the player can swim down and break the pressure plate with relative safety. This has the added bonus of leaving the temple more intact, so it can be used as a base or have the trap reset for an unsuspecting passerby in SMP.
Jungle temples mostly consist of cobblestone and mossy cobblestone. There are a small number of chiseled stone bricks, blocks that could not be legitimately obtained in Survival mode until now. There are three floors; on the bottom floor, there is a room with a puzzle (three levers connected to some sticky pistons). Solving the puzzle will open a secret door (piston door) with a chest behind it filled with loot. The loot can be valuable or useless, as the items are selected randomly from a list. Emeralds may be found in this chest, similar to desert temples. Down the hall from the Levers, there is tripwire connected to a dispenser filled with arrows. Farther down the hall there is a chest. In front of the chest is another tripwire connected to another arrow-shooting dispenser. Both Dispensers are covered in vines, making them hard to see. They each contain 8 arrows. But this chest doesn't usually contain valuable items, as it is exposed to where you can open it without passing the tripwire.

If i were to host a Hamachi Minecraft server, would people actually join it?

Basically you download Hamachi, both of you run it, one of you makes a network, the other connects to it and bam, you can connect to Minecraft without forwarding ports or needing to pay.

Naturally how well this works is dependant on the host's computer and internet.

Hamachi basically sets up a long-distance LAN network, so it is useful as well for playing games with only LAN multiplayer like Baldur's Gate.

Actual Minecraft hasn't been updated in a while. Fuck, those books would be nice, if they are done yet?

I use servers and proletariats, which are both incompatible with the NEWEST RELEASES.

Hack slash mine gets kinda boring after the first five minutes, especially if you are a warrior. The dungeons start to get old, the enemies become easy, the weapons start to make little difference.

Probably because the combat in Minecraft is booty.
