"CHEERIO GOOD CHAP, IT'D BE A SSSSSSSSSSSSssssHAME IF YOU LOST ALL THAT DIAMOND GEAR!" That is golden funny O Rugs.
I had one of those not-so-sweet moments on Saturday night, only, the fucker blew up next to me and threw me into some lava. Between the 'splosion and the lava, I died. In the lava. With a grip of gold. And diamonds. And gunpowder. And new armor. I ran back down after I spawned, not sure if I made it out of the lava in time to drop my goods on stone instead of lava and... AHHHHHHH MOTHERLAND!!!! I didn't make it :( I hate creepers. Bastages are out to get me all silent like.
You could always replace the wood with bloodstone. Easy to mine, it's red and it's creepy. Bonus all around!
