Etymology

Mushrooms and chicken all slathered in a yummy wine sauce: what's not to love? Oh no. I'm hungry again. :( = sad face.

Notes

You've got a tiny little archipelago on your hands here. I found a really awesome cove that was very scenic as well as a tiny island with a deep cave planted right in the middle of it. Really, this seed isn't much to talk about, but there was this one beautiful mountainous island with a floater and some waterfalls that I just couldn't resist showing you guys. So it made the cut.

Etymology

A ubiquitous chemical compound used in chemistry labs around the world.

Notes

For the love of James Lipton, people, I finally found it. My very first TU9 legendary seed. This thing is AMAZING. Let's start at The End and work our way backwards. The End requires only the building of a minor bridge over to the battlefield and you're there. Very easy. Then we have the Nether. It's a lone nether fortress completely surrounded by lava and unattached to any terrain. It's stunning.

The underground I didn't really have a lot of time to get into because the topside is so stunning.

So here it is. The topside. The map shows you a long, boomerang-shaped island covered in mountains. And I mean covered. There's a primary forest in the northeast and southeast corners that are small enough not to be a nuisance but big enough to supply all of your building supplies. Then, there's a really nice, flat desert due north. Finally, everything else is craggy, scarry, shady super-rocks. Cliffs. Waterfalls pouring into the lake. Some small and medium sized floaters. The rest is just Y=120 nightmare crags. Buttes, ranges, and basins galore. The shaded areas are stunning and there are plenty of them -- as evidenced by the photos above.

This is an ABSOLUTE must play.

Notes

There are lots of flat islands here if you want to isolate yourself from the bad guys. The southwest corner has a nice hilly area that has an overhang or two. The nether is very open and everything is basically floating above the lava.

I found a really weird glitch while I was looking around. There are two large rectangular holes in the ice (see coordinates below) that you can't dive through or do anything with. In fact, if you attempt to dive through them, the game will glitch. This could have just been a one-time thing and you all might get there and find the game didn't glitch for you, but I figured I'd make you aware of it just in case.
