Old Stories

[BlueWillow]

Since MCPE is dieing right now because of Microsoft, we should share some of our first times playing MCPE.
I was introduced to MCPE by a friend during a swim meet. I used to think Minecraft was dumb, but I got addicted to it. My first world was survival, and it was those times before running, back when worlds weren't infinite. I was dumb and didn't know how to craft so I fought with a bone .-. XD my first house was made of sand. I made a giant block and hollowed it out and the ceiling kept falling. I was so confused untill I realized that sand obeys gravity. I spent the night basically inclosed in a sand wall. I heard a sheep baa and almost had a heart attack :O

Then I went out and broke leaves off trees the next morning to eat apples. (I didn't kill animals because it was too sad) and collected more sand. The first time a saw a creeper, I walked up to it and said "Aww, it's adorabl-" BOOM! I barely survived. That night, I built a 1-block tower to the clouds and stood on top of it, viewing the world. There were SO many mobs below me. Luckily, I was safe.

After a while, I found out how to craft. I made a giant chamber inside a mountain with water flowing into a ditch in front of the enterance. As mobs spawned, they would run at me and fall into the pit where I could kill and harvest their drops.
My second house was made of dirt with a tree on top. (So random I know XD) I built a deep basement where creepers spawned and exploded, expanding the basement. Eventually I made torches to put in there. There was a farm on top of the house as well where my lil sis grew TONS of potatoes. We had stacks of them.

As more time passed, I made a deep mine to collect iron, gold and other ores. I never found diamnonds in that world.
I made a tall tower of stone bricks which would be my third(and last) house. It had a balcony where I could shoot mobs. This was before endermen were added. My friends with different platforms of Minecraft told me about the glowing eyes and I was very frightened at night. I never saw one in that world.
I had a chicken farm where I collected eggs, too.

All this was stored on another device, and it stopped charging ;-;
Goodbye, Old World!
Tell me one of your stories when you first played!

I got introduced to MC when my brother is playing the LITE version, my first thought was "Wow, that's so weird, why did you get infinity torches and pickaxes? And it's just blocks" But then he got the full version and he let me play for a few minutes, and I got pretty into it. (This was also the time when there was no running, the worlds weren't infinite, and u go to the nether by the reactor XD)
My first house was dug into a mountain, so it's basically a small cave with no monsters XD I remember when we but a birch sapling as decoration, and I thought it was a creeper and almost ended up leaving the game XD My brother built the second house while I pretty much did nothing and just walked around (I know, such a great contributor XD) The house was pretty awesome with wheat growing at the top, so we made the old house into a monster spawned thing XD When we first found diamond (well, my brother did all the work, but I was there ) we thought someone like Herobrine was gonna steal it so we kept it deep underground in a chest (I don't know how I thought Heronrine was gonna get into our world, but oki XD)

Oh, yea, and my brother found out about is glitch so we sorta duplicated some stuff .3. XD (Shush, this was the time before u could change survival into creative XD)

The very first world I played was Survival. I tried building into the side of a mountain, and I didn't know about monsters. So, it was dark and I was about to begin work on the roof, when I saw someone standing on top my wall. I was about to ask my friend why there was another person, when it jumped inside and my screen suddenly said 'YOU DIED!' I was sooo confused, but then my friend explained that it was a zombie and that monsters would spawn at night to kill me. I had been playing Lite on her iPad, so that was basically the end of that world.

I downloaded Minecraft on my iPad and mostly played on Creative. My builds weren't spectacular, but I was proud of them. I basically viewed two of my cousins as Minecraft gods. They played on... idk what version, but not Pocket Edition. At one point, I saw one of them build a Nether portal, and tried to recreate it in my main Creative world. Of course, the Nether wasn't in PE then, so I wound up nearly burning down half the trees in that world when I tried to activate the portal. After that, I kept trying to figure out the Nether reactor core. I never did.

My favourite Survival world could be described similarly to that Creative world - not spectacular, but I was proud of it. The first house in it was on a little island. I made it partially underground. It had a flat glass roof over the main room, with a fence around the edge. Then I tried to build an emergency escape tunnel, but it collapsed when it went below sand. I gave up that idea and made it a mob spawning/fighting area. I actually think I acted less like a noob about fighting then than I do now. Then my cousins, those same ones from before, said monsters would spawn in my house. I think they were trolling me. They said that since it was underground, monsters would spawn in it. I said it hadn't happened yet, but they insisted it would and that there was no way to prevent it. So, I moved out, and built another house on the island. It couldn't have worked in real life. It consisted of four levels, each containing on room of about 6x6 block. The house was set on top of a short 1x1 tower with a ladder. There was a little fence around the base, and I kept a cow and a chicken there. I remember not knowing that cows would follow wheat (it's wheat they follow, right?) so I built a long tunnel across the water to my house and pushed the cow through it.

The first server I knew was LifeBoat. One day, I was visiting my cousin (a different one) and he suggested we play a mini Hunger Games in Minecraft. Not on a server, just a random world and just the two of us. While he went off to get supplies, I built a dirt tower up to a tree in a taiga biome, then hid in the leaves and destroyed the tower. Then I stayed up there laughing as he tried to find me to kill me. A couple days later, I told my friend about it, a and she told me about servers. We played SG all the time, so you'd think I'd be better at PVP, but no. When custom skins could finally be used in PE, she gave me the Hermione skin and she used a Luna Lovegood one. One summer, I stayed up past 2am every day playing SG.

my first creative world was a giant city built in a flat world. it had a floating zoo and a giant tower i called a castle. i had an mansion made entirely out of redstone blocks. it had giant statues and random stuff everywhere. i had a whole rail system throughout the city (it was before redstone stuff was added) i had a whole town built at world height. it had a house made out of monstee spawners and jungle leaves and a giant river for a road (1 way only xD)

my first survival was in an infinite world. i had a two story wooden house with fences and a trench surronding it to catch mobs. it was on a mountain next to where i spawned cuz it was before crouching so i had a hard time building bridges

my next survival world was in an old world. This was back when they first allowed u to switch gamemodes in a world. i cheated in enchanted stuff, i basically had the while creative inventory in my storage.my house was a nether spire with walkways in the sky connecting it to my sisters house.

then i made a creative world. it started with a bridge i made (i thought was rlly good) i built a whole mountain town. with a "treehouse" in the sky. and a random jungle with a giant treehouse on the opposite mountain. i had a railway to my sisters "castle"

then i made another survival world.
it was in an old world with a village. i had a full enchanted diamond set and glass walkways connecting all the homes in the village. i would stand at the top of the church at night and snipe monsters. i replaced my house with an obsidian building. (if ur wondering how i got all that stuff, i used the chest duplication glitch XD)

my next creative world was a giant jungle mansion (old world) it had a library, redstone hidden hottub, pool, bedroom, hiiden passageways and a kitchen and even a trapped storage room. i even built a stable for when horse came out. it had a maze on the roof.
this world also had a mesa biome (my device couldnt handle infinite worlds)
i built an entire house in the mountain
And a whole botanical garden and farm in the taiga biome
then one day i went on, built a house, left, came back on, the house was gone, the world kept crashing after that and i had to delete it (the file was corrupted, rip)

ahem

Once upon a time I made a survival world. I was running around on the grass not exactly knowing what i was doing. Then I realised you can build a house so I did. It was a two storey flat roofed house that looked ugly af. I was very proud of this house and forgot that theres more to minecraft then building houses. When I remembered I went mining lol

The first time I went in a cave I didn't know what to do I was using a wooden pickaxe that I had some how managed to craft. I didn't know what any of the ores were infact I didn't know what iron ore was so I mined it and put in a chest..for a long time lol. When I got to the end of the cave i started mining out the wall. Apparently there had been a pond just above the cave so when I mined part of the wall water started coming in ._. i panicked for no reason and left the cave xD.

then I made leather armour and I felt so good because I didn't know there was better armour then that lol and then I felt even more better when I made a wooden sword.

Then a sad day came I was out getting flowers to put outside my house and I lost it ;-; I spend literally a month looking for it when I found it again i never left the house again lol. Luckily there is now /gamerule keepinventory true so i can just kill myself and get back to ma house ;3;.

the world is gone now tho because the tablet that had the world on it broke ;-;
