OK i am a noob at minecraft but me and my friend found a seed called "allswords" on 1.8.1 and it might be fast enough... it spawns you on a tree and then collect wood and jump down. we did this with bonus chest but then you can make a pick and mine up some stone. the make a stone pick and mine up 5 iron and 2 coal nearby. then make a furnace and cook it and wait for it to be done. then make a pick and turn around into the direction of the falling water and climb up into this hole mining a staircase and go through the cave and there will be a huge hole. fall down it and you'll see lapis near you and redstone nearby. next mine the block that's behind the redstone and there will be diamonds (4 of them). then mine to the other side where there's gold. next cook that gold and while waiting, make the 4 other swords and when that is done, get the gold and make the last sword. bam... I was able to get 4m 47s and my friend got 4m 3s 010ms. but our computers are 4x slower fastest speed on a computer so it'd convert to 1m 760ms and 1m 11s 750ms. could this possibly be faster???? probs not but it's cool. also i want to add a no chest route because having the chests next to you in spawn is completely lame and takes away all of the fun. adding no chests would make the game very interesting because they would actually have to work for their items and not get everything they need in seconds. I am just making suggestions for a new category because it would add some extra fun that's all. plz reply as fast as you possibly can and see if this route is faster and add no chest route thx and cyl.

I doubt that is slower. I'm not gonna add a no chest category, that's sorta dumb. We might add a no natural structures category.

Don't you mean you doubt this is faster?

no natural structures would be even better :)

Yeah milk
