PC Rocks, That Is All

First you think u know more than gaz about 7 days to die coding. Then you think you know more than MadMole about game design. THEN you think you know more than Davega about rocks. Next thing you know, you will be trying to teach me how to be a stripper.

This made me lol in the office man..!

You want more tips? The trick is to spin around your own pole :-)
Everyone can make a mistake, I'm no exception. It's not obvious that a stalactite is a crystal and, if memory serves, not something I was taught in either science or geography.

The horrible thing? I generally google for verification these days instead of education. I've been a pedant for so long I've pretty much researched everything that interests me. You want to see me bamboozled? Ask me anything about popular culture :-)

Haha no worries mate.. No (rock-)hard feelings!

Looks like everybody is a geologist here now! ^-^

Yeah you are right. If magma cools sufficiently slow you can get very nice and large crystals, also called plutonic rocks (granite, for example). If the magma extrudes to the surface, it cools down much more rapidly. Because of this, there is not enough time to form large crystals, because of which you can get a more 'homogenous' rock (basalt, for example).

should we expect the experimental and 18 in the 20 days

Sorry, see above, 7D2D has to cool off sufficiently slow so that it can get some nice regular features.

Yeah absolutely! Cool-down times are of course in the thousands of years, which is in the same order of magnitude as an alpha-cycle (yes, yes, Roland, that's only counting the whole Alpha updates. If you want to count the point-updates as well, its gets longer).

And you even left out the streamer-exclusive eons so that the time frame is still conceivable to our tiny human brains.

 
so, err... Alpha 18 will be an Epoch Update then?

(and is that why the dinosaurs had to die?) (oh oh... or are we waiting until the Ross ice sheet falls??)

The effects of global warming can be observed in A18. There will be more terrain under water than in A17

Yeah geological epochs (or rather the bigger subdivision of eras) are usually defined by the mass extinction of life on the planet. So yeah.. A18 can be an epoch-defining update.. We just need to select a suitable life-form which needs to go extinct.

I personally vote for math teachers!

But, isn't math involved in crystalline structures? (Not to mention 'subdivision'...). So, if there were anyone that could help prove or disprove things you are saying, then...

O.I.C...

First Roland. Then Gazz. THEN Gronk.

(Silllllllls is fine as long as he keeps asking questions.)

We should be able to make obsidian knives and spear tips.

Obsidian IRL is actually quite fragile and is easily damaged and broken (as opposed to the minecraft interpretation). So weapons or tools made with it would be pretty much useless as they would break once you actually hit something with them.
