I lose track of updates. I truly don't care about them too much, I still haven't gotten the hang of banners.
Although, when 1.9 is out, I'm 100% most 2011 and further will all quit out of anger or sadness because they miss the good ol' days.
Sounds like might get fun Not too many additions for skyblock though This end trees seems like a nice way of finally making endstone worth having though, neat terraforming! With the new mobs and nametags, might be able to make a haunted house With protection against killing mobs on protected islands of course .. So for skyblock: - some new end blocks - end fruit tree - end jack-in-a-box - dual wielding -> off-hand (ease of life) The rest is kinda pointless in that sense sadly
