What was your first Minecraft home like?

[Troublesome Lagomorph]

A convoluted house. It had the main building, which had a hollow that ran up into a room with two floors. There was a gravel "Staircase" into a crude mine, and then a tunnel leading into a kind of dome that was the opening outside. IT was made of dirt and badly lit, and was quickly destroyed and flooded by a creeper.

 

[Ickorus]

I hollowed out part of a mountain to make my first home, it was quite cosy. After I expanded a little, and added a few extra rooms it turned into quite a nice little dwelling I had.

I had a nice beachfront view, and I even managed to build a lighthouse and some docks near the beach a few days before I moved to a new mountain a few miles away.

This is almost identical to my first home, I thought I was being original!

I now live in the loft of an item shop I built in the town me and my friends made, it even has a toilet with a flusher

 

[Pegghead]

My first actual home was a series of rooms cut into the rock of a mountain that was part of an awesomly beautiful structure of mountain, cliff and...whatever the word is for when there's sort of a bridge between two mountains that sort of looks like a gigantic O.

I made that little slice of heaven my own, building guard towers, farming, a labrinyth of caves and dug out rooms in the main mountain...I miss that place sometimes.

 

[AngloDoom]

I made a ladder up into the top of a tree, flattened out the leaves and made dirt walls. I later replaced the dirt with tree-stumps and made a bridge to another tree. Much later on, I made a tree-top town made entirely of wood and dirt, even with farms on top of trees and channels of water flowing to them to fuel them.

 

[Thyunda]

A hole some way up a cliff face. I found coal, mined it, then shoved a door in the gap. Of course, I was safe from attack, because I was several hundred feet above the ground. I built a ladder to get me to and from safety...except for one awkward moment when I opened my door and sent a creeper soaring through the air, detonating far below.

Dug into the side of a mountain, And most of my starting homes/baces still do. Its just so easy and can often lead to maybe some coal or early iron.

 

[an_luas]

My first home was an under-hanging apartment kind of thing at a cliff.

It eventually burnt down along with the whole world... an I really do mean the whole world! It spread EVERYWHERE!

 

[Dfskelleton]

First home? A hole in a wall.
First actual house? A giant floating stone octopus fortress. Too bad it got deleted.

 

[Death God]

Mine was buried under ground hiding because I didn't know I needed torches for light.

 

[Servantes]

For me was evolution, learning what I can and cant do within time, also everything I built was not in creation mode, I just found about how to turn it on a few months ago, still prefer the old traditional way of getting your materials and making something.

Started with a wood shack with no windows (added next day)
[green circle]

after I learned if you dig deep enough in the world you find other good stuff and started digging and found obsidian but before I used that I built a tree house.

Tree House built in a hour, fell out of the tree house building it about 7-8 times

then the house of fire was built and that one took about 4 days, 6-8 hours each day when I had time.

Do I have a lot of time? yup, when I started building random things I tend to not stop for very long.

As for the texture pack its Yet Another Zelda:LttP Texture Pack
from minecraft planet.

[derbt]

I dug a hole in a hill. While is was dark, I slowly expanded it into a larger dwelling, and did a bit of mining. I still remember it fondly, but I've happily upgraded to my castle on a mountain.

 

[teh_Canape]

a hole in the ground, because I was exploring the place and then the night fell
so I just made a hole and closed it over me with dirt

what a fine home it was

 

[Assassin Xaero]

Hole in the side of a mountain...

 

[PinkiePyro]

a hole in a mountan/hill
my first actual nice house was a cobblestone house on an island

 

[Sectan]

I found a cave and closed off the openings and dug down and found a cave with skeletons. Got killed and couldn't find my way back.

 

[MegaDarkLucario]

My first Minecraft house was pretty much an upright coffin.

 

[Irradiated Tiger]

I lived in a little hole in hill by the sea. I expanded it into a mine and kept all my important stuff at the entrance. Eventually I expanded the bay and built a big wooden house their. I'm still using my first home as a diamond mine.

 

[Hasido]

my first one that i made, the classic BWB: Boring Wooden Blocks.

the first one i attempted to make look cool: A fancy castle.

my most recent one: a giant hollowed out tree in a swamp. i kinda like this one the most.

 

[Nickompoop]

I lived in a hole dug into a mountainside. I only ventured out to gather wood until I made an underground forest (which was pretty bitchin'). I never went outside again. What, do other people play Minecraft differently?
