You know it's only been basically four days since I started playing, right?  Not long at all!  Except I've skipped too much sleep and am therefore further along than one would expect :)

I have noticed... lol... You are pushing much later than I did / do and I know I feel it in the morning.

It's ironman Minecraft :)

Although I haven't watched very much TV in the last few days, so that's a plus.  Gotta start setting timers, though, and writing down end-of-night notes so I know what I want to do when I pick it back up again.
Prayin' for a 20!

Haha, no, Ironman Minecraft is playing on Survival mode (or higher) and then not reconnecting/reloading after you die :)

I think you mean Hardcore mode ;D It automatically deletes the world on loss. And you can't change difficulty modes while playing.

Before Hardcore it was informally called Ironman, SMP Ironman still exists for maps like Minecraft Survival Island though.

"ironman" is defined as a strong man of exceptional physical endurance, and is related to the concept of continuous activity for long periods of time.  Thus I used it to describe my night-to-day-to-night session.

I didn't know there was an SMP Ironman mode, though.

"hardcore" would be closer in definition to not reloading if you die.

And Tom, you're never allowed to put your server in Hardcore mode, you hear me?

Well, it's self enforced.

Ironman as in endurance...

It's a lot tougher now that there's a hunger bar. Originally all you had to worry about was your hearts disappearing as you try to survive, now you have that AND you're working against time...
