My ASS kept my Minecraft world running smoothly; now I’ve lost it, I have to start all over again.
It was beautiful, the most extensive and organized A.S.S. I’d ever seen. Modeled after dwarven mines, it was sturdy yet intricate, and it made my life so much easier. Everything was exactly where I needed it to be. I could focus on building and exploring the highest cliffs and lowest ravines to my heart’s content, and it was all thanks to my A.S.S. Run out of cobblestone; go check out the A.S.S. Unsure what to do with extra food supplies; chuck it in the A.S.S. In need of some iron ore; I’m sure you know where it was stored.
But now it’s all a distant memory. I haven’t seen my A.S.S. in half a year. Unfortunately, in merging my Mojang and Microsoft accounts, it got caught up in the middle. Now I can’t seem to find it, no matter how hard I look.
That’s not to say it’s a bad thing. The whole point of Minecraft is starting new worlds again and again and finding new ways to enjoy them. I’m currently back to basics in a world enjoying all the casual delights of creating my first farm and finding my first beehive. It’s how Minecraft should be played. But I’d be lying if I said I didn’t miss my Automated Sorting System.
If anyone is unfamiliar with what an A.S.S. is, then rest assured it’s not as scary as it sounds. Underneath my Minecraft base, I had carefully crafted a storage room, only accessible by descending a mossy staircase. Once you got about halfway down the stairs, the beauty of my creation could be seen in all its glory: a massive room split into two halves, with three levels of chests lining the walls.
