Some of you may not understand the significance of discovering an sbanth mining facility, so I'll elaborate.

Minecraft is a game that lends itself to multiple playing styles, but in general, the game encourages building on a massive scale. Commie builds giant castles that aren't that interesting to look at but are still enormous. Crytax builds highways from one place to the next that are too large and of such a quality of material as to be kind of mind-numbing. aaronjer tends to build giant naked pictures of Zelda along with one or more Cloud Lodge Cumuli and Nezumi spends most of his time building elaborate redstone mechanisms or stuffing TNT into where it clearly doesn't belong. Superjer, at least recently, has been building monster traps and a large railway system. For my own part, I just build staircases, or bridges, or mineshafts that aren't that interesting unless I end up inspired somehow.

sbanth doesn't build anything, except for that one fishing lodge which you aren't allowed to litter in. sbanth just digs. Digging is the only thing sbanth does. There are almost never any torches, never any caverns that seem to open up, no directions are posted, and the shafts are never more than a block wide. sbanth mining operations continue until lava is reached, at which point sbanth dies, and then spends several hours trying to retrieve a corpse, only managing to create more and more corpses until eventually he gives up and starts doing something different.

So, you can see how clearly important this discovery is.

The spell was broken when the laptop overheated, or something.

I mean, Java's not great, but it's available pretty much everywhere and the requirements are still fairly low.
