<< < (2/6) > >>

madgaz:
310,000 blocks long O:

ApolloMew:
After a bit of math, my guess is gonna be

335,000.

DrewsMagicMonkey:
365,329

Domsters931:
412562 blocks long

mathfreak2:
Guys, just saying that the ludicrously high guesses that I'm seeing (1m+ for example) will count as the guess for that particular person (i.e any later guesses will be removed) but will not be counted towards the participation score to determine the prize. For those of you who guessed 1m+, I suggest you modify your guesses to be smaller.

As a further "hint", consider this: One minecraft block is equal to one cubic meter. This means that 1,000,000 blocks is 1,000 kilometers, which is also about 621.4 miles. Going 65 miles an hour on the interstate, it would take nearly 10 hours. Consider this in minecraft terms. 1,000,000 blocks for a 1x2 mine would be 2,000,000 blocks mined at the very least. If it takes 1 second per block (this is accounting for various caves where a person would not mine as many blocks per unit of time) on average to mine a single piece of stone, this would take about 555 hours to mine at a minimum. If a person mined an hour a day exactly, it would take over a year and a half to accomplish this, and remember this is an absolute minimum not accounting for ores that may appear on the walls, ceiling, or floor of the 1x2 mine or blocks mined in various caves along the way. 555 hours would also be equivalent to over 23 days of ontime completely devoted to mining. Now, despite my ontime being one of the highest on the server (over 108 days), I do not spend nearly 25% of my time on the server mining. So, please, do try to make reasonable guesses.

Edit: I will now be removing any guesses that are 1m+
