Etymology

It's a pie with raspberries in it. Seriously, sometimes you ask me to explain the weirdest things to you.

Notes

Islands-a-plenty in this archipelago, but the main one is very large and full of trees and such. So it's ideal for people looking to play their first island level. The ender portal room has a side entrance -- something I can't recall seeing in any other seed I've taken a look at so far. I know it's minor, but worth mentioning nonetheless. For those of you who like their nethers less open than I do, this seed has a nice one.

Etymology

Aerosmith loved this song so much they sung it twice: first by themselves and then later with the group Run-D.M.C. Since the second version happened in 1986 (the original was 1975), the remix is the namesake.

Notes

Lots of mountains and a gnarled island in this one. I also found a landmark henceforth known as the "Sewing Machine" that can be seen for meters. The nether on this one also has some cool formations.

My Review

This is an okay seed. Really, this one was all about two things: first, a massive cavern that I found that was, frankly, beautiful (see photos) and The End was actually pretty well laid out and easy to get over to the dragon. So I figured I'd throw it in here. The southwest corner of this map is all super swamp; avoid unless you need clay or something.

My Review

A lot of awards are being handed out today and this level is no exception. The location where I spawned was amazing -- both in terms of visual attractiveness and collecting-tons-of-free-shit attractiveness. There was an above-ground, pre-built skeleton spawn farm ready to go with two chests of awesome stuff (including saddles). Beyond the cool spawn, the seed proper is also very interesting. It's mostly desert. In fact, it's kinda like walking around inside a Van Gogh painting. I saw a pig commit suicide by running into a cactus. I'm not sure, but I may have been hallucinating in the dry desert heat. Grandpa, is that you?

Items of Interest

• [4.80.-12] a cave full of skeletons
• [-2.67.-31] skeleton farm with a ring of moss stone and two chests full of crap. There is also another cave nearby.
• [65.65.-74] clay deposit
• [-67.75.-13] a short cliff diving experience
• [48.120.52] Grandpa Willy

The vast desert stretches out before me. Hope I have enough water. At right, this is the crazy skeleton farm with moss ring and first chest. The second chest is to the left under the sand. If you look closely, you can see that there's actually a cave that runs under this thing if you dig down.
