New Elevator

By the way, here is the new piston elevator I made yesterday!

I'm back!

Hey kids I'm back!

Finished my bachelor report on monday at 11:53, 7 minutes before it was due ^^

So now I am back, planning to play more Minecraft then what I've done these last few weeks. I should probably get online on the server and check it out as well.

Though I've bought portal 1 and 2 so I have to finish them aswell!

Zombie mode

I've entered Zombie mode for the 1231235 time in the last 6 days...

Zombie mode is when I'm simply just staring at the screen, reading a bounch of text, realizing I haven't understood anything and then reading it again. I have pretty much been working every hour that I've been awake during theese last 6 days with my bachelor exam, which is due on Monday... I'm dying from it atm, but god damn it's gonna feel good when I hand it in at 12:00 on monday.

Skins

Hello out there!

First off I just wanted to thank everyone that still visists the blog even though I am not very active on it. But that will change as soon as I am done with the Bachelor exam and I get my degree!

I took one hour off from studying yesterday and made this elevator prototype.



And one last thing! I feel like I need a new skin for minecraft. Since I started making videos I've used Mr. T, Chuck Norris and now I am using Mr. Spock. Any idea what skin I should use now? Post a comment here to help me out!

And don't forget to visit my youtube channel and say hello on the wall!
