I am practising for any% set seed glitchless using the 1.6.4 seed (see SpoonTy's guide) because, although it is not perfect, it is very close to it:

• You start close to a snowy biome so can get snowballs, so don't need to mine flint or kill chickens to get arrows (for the end fight)
• You start close to a spider spawner (skeletons or zombies would be workable, but less convenient) with 9 iron and two buckets (but you only really need 1 bucket), so you can have an iron pickaxe, iron sword, shears, flint and steel, and iron shovel without having to mine or smelt iron ore.
• Along the way are several trees, animals (pigs for porkchops, sheep for wool), and water lakes.
• You then have a lava lake which you can easily use with a bucket and water you scooped from one of the aforementioned water lakes, to make a Nether portal.
• This takes you directly to a Nether fortress, with a blaze spawner just down the corridor.
• Then you have a deep cave (saving you mining time) into a stronghold with eight eyes of ender in the portal and four ender pearls in chests. This means you don't have to kill any endermen, it really is a very lucky seed.
• All these things are more or less in a straight line in roughly the order you need them.

It is not perfect, as I would, for example, prefer a perfect portal to skip the nether altogether, or have armour, or a village with diamonds for a diamond sword and/or pick, but the seed we have is already extremely lucky which is why I (and most other speedrunners in this category) use it.

I don't actually have a run in this category yet - I have to keep restarting because mobs kill me, and I've not yet perfected the bed-in-the-end trick, but hopefully you'll see my runs sometime.

I like the idea of this.

If I am not mistaken, CryoJester is suggesting that the time stop when one builds an Iron Golem, not finds one, so you have to get the four blocks and the pumpkin, so the addition to villages shouldn't change this.

For Set Seed Glitchless you will probably want a seed near some pumkins and a village with plenty of iron then go to a cave to mine the rest and use the blacksmith furnaces.

For Random Seed Glitchless you hope that you get a seed that allows you to do the above.

With Glitches you just get 1 iron ingot and a pumkin and repeatedly duplicate the iron.
