It's no secret roughly 43% of the MiddleEasy network has been playing Minecraft to an unhealthy degree, and even Gary LaPlante has gotten in on the mining fun. It's safe to say that our lives and relationships have suffered greatly since Minecraft was introduced to us, and our gaming sessions were leaking into articles as subject fodder.

Now we have every reason to talk about the fact that Zeus meticulously recreated the Luxor (to scale) and then our game froze and nothing saved. We can talk about how Gary burned down MiddleEasy reader lovingly referred to as 'Jonesy' in the comment section's Bungalo down as LiverKick's Dave Walsh laughed from one of the many 'offices' he's created, because someone just spent a whole bunch of time creating Bas's famous celebration logo in Minecraft. Look at that.

There is no way in hell Bas Rutten understands how much 'work' this took. Huge props to Jeff Bartel, you my friend, need to go outside immediately.

It's literally a sandbox game. You start off with your bare hands and then through meticulous mining and work, you end up building something. The better you get a building, the more elaborate your ideas get, and sooner or later you are doing crazy stuff.

I won't lie, it kind of sucks playing alone, but playing with other people? Pffft. Jason, Jonesy, Gary, sometimes Zeus and I have been doing some legit crazy shit and having fun with it.

Trust me, Jonesy and I were COMPLETELY resistent to Jason's demands of us buying it, then we did, and it takes over everything. I'll be at band practice and get a text saying "Minecraft?" and I'll be like "alright guys, we gotta wrap it up" and follow that by playing for something like eight hours straight of just mining.

I think that too...but it hasn't stopped me from putting in countless hours and creating a giant quarry and a castle...in the [expletive] sky

That is what he gets for building a bungalow out of wood.

But out of all of the stone fortresses you picked the wooden area to see what the flint and steel does...

I don't support the Minecraft movement, but that is pretty awesome.
