Upon Secrecy

I just read a short historical book about the spies during the Revolutionary War. It was very informative and told me a lot about how the spies in the civil war conveyed there messages. If you like short historical books, that have pictures, this is a good book for you.

NCTE

Sorry for not posting in over a month but I have been busy. So in November during Thanksgiving break I went to NCTE. At NTCE I would stand in line to get books signed. I earned a lot of money doing this and I can't wait till next year. I have already read a few of the many books that we got at NCTE.  The one I am currently reading is titled Deck Z.

Deck Z

 So far it is a very good book. In the beginning of the book the main character is going to this village in China to find out what new plague has come to town. They show him these two men that have started to decay but are still strong and very aggressive. One of the men bites the main character but because of his thick jacket, the bite, does not pierce his skin. Their tour guide kicks the infected man off of the main character but then is bitten in the neck. The bite pierces the skin and she is infected. They  decide to transport her by train to Germany to study this plague. What happens next? Read the book and find out.

Have a merry Christmas and a happy new year.

Middle School Retreat


Last weekend I went on a Lutheran Retreat. This retreat was only for middle school students. I had a lot of fun there and had time with God. They had a band there called the Living Stones and they played some songs every mass event. The theme for the event was Glow and let your light shine. They also had a speaker, Jeff Meinz. He was a really good speaker and had some funny stories to tell us. On the last night there was a dance from 9 to midnight also known as LIGHTS OUT. I had lots of fun and little sleep, I can't wait till next year.I also learned of a funny game called the stick game. In the stick game you hold a stick really high up in the air, stare at its tip and spin around twenty times. You then have to throw it on the ground and jump over it.

The New Villas at the Grand Floridian

Last night I got to test the new addition to the Grand Floridian in Disney World. The new building is called the Villas. While we were there we got to use the magic bands. I think the magic bands are amazing. You can buy things with it, you can even get your fast passes on it. We went swimming in the pool near the bar as well. I guess they don't heat all the pools because the water was really cold. Over all I think the Grand Floridian is a really nice hotel.

I restarted watching Doctor Who the other day on Episode 4 Season 1 and I think that the first 2-3 episodes of Doctor Who aren't well made. I did not really like them so I stopped watching Doctor Who and just watched Futurama. Now that I am done with Futurama all I have to watch is The Walking Dead and Doctor Who. So yesterday I watched Doctor Who. I believe the episodes after episode 4 are better than the beginning of the Season. Over all Doctor Who is a okay show.

The Weekend

Last weekend I had a long weekend because the teachers at my school went to a conference. SO us students were lucky enough to have a 5 day weekend. I went camping and read a few books.

 I went camping at Fort de Soto (means Fort of Soto). Fort de Soto is a nice park. It is on the beach so you can go pier fishing off of two piers and go to the beach. You also can rent a kayak an go for a ride on the river. I went with my dad and my friend. We had a lot of fun and we got a lot of mosquito bites. We stayed there 4 nights. We got there Wednesday and left Sunday. My friend didn't get there till Thursday afternoon so I had to do something. I read my book all afternoon Wednesday then all morning Thursday. I was able to finish about 2 books in this time.

The Fire-Us trilogy

Surprisingly already out of print this is a great series. All the parents have died and only children have survived. Most kids died in the beginning because of wild animals and no food. A "family" of children have survived this virus and live together hunting for supplies in the town they live in. Five years after the virus a boy comes to there door and two wild little children are outside. What will happen? Read the book to find out.

She can not see his face because of his mask. She hides up on the hills watching him. Is he good or is he a crazy man who barely survived? Find out by reading the book.

World of Tanks #2

World of Tanks is a fun game I have written a review in a older post if you want to see that.

I was playing World of Tanks after the new update and I noticed I was playing on a new map I think, it may not be new I just had never played on them and I don't know the names of this map. It is this really fun and small map where it is winter time and there are 2 dried up river beds that sort of act as a trench for the tanks. I like this map because of its small size and lots of cover.
I also was reading some things in the setting and noticed once I research my tier 6 tank I will be able to play in a new game mode called assault. I can not wait to get there but I think it may take a while since I am still on my tier 4 tank and not even close to getting my tier 5.

TNT run on Minecraft

I found a mini game server where you can play different mini games and for the different games you can buy perks with in game coins. My favorite part about this server is the TNT games. There are 3 games playable by non VIPs and they are wizard, bow spleef, and TNT run. My favorite is TNT run because you have to have really good parkour skills to win. I have won twice. They have 3 different TNT run maps and 2 wizard maps and 1 bow spleef map.
 Wizard is where you chose your wizard (fire,Kennetic,or ice) the fire wizard shoots fire balls the Kennetic (sorry if I spelled it wrong) wizard has a short range rail gun, the ice wizard makes you slow. I like this because it is a really fun mini game that is short and sweet and the map is destructive. Fire balls can destroy parts of a building making blocks fly through the air.
TNT run is where you run around and where you step the ground disappears. This means you have to constantly keep moving. Near the end of the match you have to constantly jump just to get to another block of gravel and TNT. I like this because I am good at it.
Bow spleef is where you have a bow and you have to try to get all 23 other people to fall out of the map. This server has many other mini games not just TNT games but this is my favorite. The server's website is link.

What google says #2

This post is about what funny things google says. This will be A-L, also sorry for not posting in a while, school has been a little rough with soccer try outs last week.

A- Atari breakout- this is a google Easter egg (just so you know).
B- BATMAN
C-cake
D-daft punk
(some of these are kind of dull and nothing funny or interesting comes up)
E-Elephant
F-funny pictures
G-Google
H-happy friendship day
I-Iphone 6
J-nothing good for j
K-knights email
L-Lion

Nothing interesting at all today, now for my usual things:

Over the weekend I downloaded a new Star Wars BattleFront 2 map called Tusken Camp. This map is on Tatooine and you can play conquest,XL,hunt,and assault. This map has added a few new characters like the commander and explosives expert. I usually play it on XL since this to me is the most fun for this small map. On XL there are 3 tanks and 5 speeders per team, added to this there are a lot of units since it is XL. So on the line of battle there is mass destruction and lots of explosions. I really like this map.

School and a couple books

I am really sorry I have not been posting. I have just been working at my mom's school organizing her room and filling up a dumpster.I also have been working on my summer reading assignment. I also went camping last weekend with some friends of mine. I also have just been plain lazy.

The things I will post about today: Minecraft Hide and Seek server, how easy it is to mod Star Wars Battlefront 2,The Enemy,and camping last weekend. This is what I will post about today so lets get started.

Minecraft Hide and Seek server.
This server is a mini-game server, so this server has a hub. At the hub there are 3-4 options Arcade, Survival Games, Whats Happening in Minevyle, and I forgot the other one if it is real. I go to the Arcade which has Splegg, One In Chamber, and Hide n' Seek. 
Splegg is basically spleef but you shoot eggs at the blocks instead of punching the blocks. Also there are more than one level, EXAMPLE you start on the top, then you get splegged down to the middle, your there for awhile then splegged to the bottom. This is a very strange spleef but surprisingly fun.
I don't really know what One In Chamber (onein) is really. What I do know is you have 1 arrow that I be leave is a shot a kill and you have a wooden sword. This is all I know about onein.
Hide n' Seek is where there is 1 seeker and he has to find the hiders. The hiders are random blocks that can hide in that environment. So you can't be a cobblestone block on a map where there is no cobblestone. Once you have found a good hiding spot you just stand still for 5 seconds and you become a solid minecraft block. You can not be a solid block where there is already a block. Once your fellow hiders are hiding you can jump on top of them as if there were a block. I suggest hiding up high or in a hidden corner.

A crazy XL map of Geonosis
 The server ip is hivemc.eu and here is a link to there forums.

How Easy it is to mod Star Wars Battlefront 2 (STWB2)
 It is VERY easy to modify STWB2  all you have to do is go to your c drive in computer, then go to programsfiles (x86), go to Lucusarts, then go to STWB2, go to gamedata, create a new file called addon and place your mod or map there. I have about 40-50 maps. Some are just the characters are really amped up or there are new characters or the map looks amazing. If you want to see a good map review go to K0noa on youtube he makes amazing STWB2 map reviews.

Camping last Weekend
Last Weekend I went camping with my friends. We went to the Fort Wilderness campsite. My friend and I mainly just biked around the camp ground and went into the Disney shops. We also one day went on one of those little boats you can drive around. Those were sort of fun but we got stuck in a no wake zone and my motor was really slow. My idle speed was a lot slower than everyone else's. Other than that we went to the pool and at night we went to this other pool that nobody goes to and just had fun, since there was probably only 5 other people in the pool than us. I had a wonderful time and the rain kept most of the heat away.

The Enemy
The Enemy is about how everyone above the age of 15 dies of a sickness or becomes a zombie. So this leaves all the 14 year olds and younger in charge. Most die right away to scared to do anything, others make small camps with their friends which are also overrun. The rest make large camps in grocery stores,mansions, and museums. And others still just hide in the shadows constantly moving. One of these groups decides to go with a strange boy to Buckingham palace where it is supposedly safe. Will they make it? You will have to read the book.
Here is a link to there website.

School
My first day of school is tomorrow (Monday), and my friend is going to make his own blog on that day, so if it is any good I will post a link in the news section (which I need to update). I can not way to see what he writes about.

World of Tanks

I went to a friends house this weekend to watch a Lord of the Rings movie. The movie was awesome and when I arrived he, his brother ,and their dad were all playing World of Tanks.
Tier 1 T1 cunningham.
The next day I downloaded, and installed the game. It took my nice 1 year old computer about 2 and a half hours to install and update. The game is free so if you don't like it no cost. ALSO watch tutorial videos before you play. There are a lot of controls. If you want to play here is a link. LINK
This game runs on Tiers. Tier 1 tanks are small and easy to destroy. The Tiers go all the way up to tier 10. I am a Tier 3 light tank. Thier are 5 different tanks: light,medium,heavy,artillery, and tank destroyers.
When I first played in my first battle I was the T1 Cunningham. This tank is a small light tank that is very fast. I liked it so much I decided to keep it when I upgraded to the M2 tank. I still have when I upgraded to the Tier 3 light tank.

Slam Camp

On Monday,Tuesday, and Wednesday I went to a Poetry Slam Camp with 11 other people. This camp was amazing. I got to do it for free since my mom was helping out with the camp. At the camp I met some really nice people who write poetry. At that time on the first day I did not know how to write poetry. I did know how to write rhymes and hiakus but those were for school. Poetry written as a assignment is not poetry at all. Poetry comes from the heart. Here is one of the poems I wrote at the camp.

My Inner Editor

My inner editor abuses me.
He beats me down and tells me it won't work.
He tells me to erase or scratch out.
To rip up and throw out.
I try to make him happy by doing what he says,
But he'll never be happy,
Unless I fail,
He has ruined essays and short stories
book reports and journal entries.
But I can't stop listening,
I've tried distracting him
BUT HE WON"T GO AWAY,
no,no I won't just go,
mow the lawn or do the dishes or fold the sheets
JUST GO.
but so far he just sits there watching me listen to him.


I am still editing this piece poems should be written over hours not minutes. Also at this slam camp I learned how to perform my poetry. I have started to write 2 more poems but they are not done yet.

On the day of the slam (Tuesday) we had a Preliminary which is a slam before the slam. I got dead last with my poem but I still did a good job with 21 points. Before the slam we the poets had a talk. We talked about what our poem was about. After that we became the Slam Family (that is what I call it).

After the slam there was a open mike round. Anyone could go up and perform a poem. That is when I went in front of 50 something teachers and said that poem above these paragraphs. I was a little nervous but I think I did good.

Star wars book


When I was in the car driving to Michigan I re-read a lot of books. When I got to Michigan I bought a book called Star Wars Republic Commando Hard Contact. I got it because I had the Republic Commando game (I had not yet installed the game then). This book was about another squad that all the members of the squad were the only survivors of their other squads after Geonosis. They are sent on their first mission to Quillira to find and sabotage separatist's buildings. They are in a old but supped up farm vehicle so they can drop in unnoticed. The vehicle breaks down and Darman is the last of his squad (Fi,Atin,and Niner) out of the ship spraining his ankle on landing. I think this book is well written and has a good story. Don't forget to read the sequel if you like it. Go to Karen Traviss's website here.

Road Trip to Michigan

For the last 3 weeks I have been on a road trip to Michigan. I just got back two nights ago at 1:45. We went to Petoskey to see my mom's side of the family. While we were there we did a lot of stuff.

Walking in a thinner part of the cave.

Following the ranger to the cave's entrance.
We first stopped at Mammoth Cave for 3 nights. And we went on 2 tours. The first tour that we went on was 1/4 of a mile and took 2 hours, it was at the new entrance. Our second tour we went on was the Historic tour it was 2 miles long and took 2 hours. We entered the cave at the old entrance for that tour. (That is me in the green jacket)

My dog daisy watching for squirrels with her ball.

American spoon Jam at the American spoon store and restaurant.
When we got to Petoskey Michigan we went to the condo we were sharing with my Grandparents. For the first few days we relaxed and went shopping in downtown Petoskey. Once my aunt, uncle, and cousin got here we were more active. One day all we did was visit with family and go out to dinner. I thought it was a nice day.






One day we went to the Sleeping Bear Sand Dunes. We climbed all the way to the top. My dad and I didn't way our shoes up the sand so our feet got a little burnt when we got close to the top. We also went to Mackinac Island. On Mackinac there are no cars you either ride a bike or a horse drawn buggie. We also bought some famous Mackinac fudge. The fudge was delicious. We took a bike tour where you ride around the Island. Over all I think Mackinac Island was the best part of our trip to Michigan.



On the way back to Florida we stopped in Ohio to see one of my Mom's friends. Sarah and Micheal had three dogs two were Papillions.  One was so small that it only weighed 4 pounds! There dogs were very cute and Micheal had taught them tricks. One trick was to jump over his leg the other was to spin. The drive to Ohio was 8 hours long.
 The next day we got up late and got home late. It was a 16 hour drive and we got home at 1:45. Surprisingly my dog did not bark to much in the car. I also read a couple a books I hadn't read yet  and I will post about those in the next couple days.

Star Wars Fan Favorites 1


The other day I got the Star Wars Fan Favorites video game pack. The games are for the computer and are on a CD. The games are Star Wars Battle Front 1 and 2 and Star Wars Republic Commando. In the case there are 3 discs each one a different game. To install you put the disc in the DVD-ROM and click install.
 I have only installed one of the games that is Star Wars Battle Front 2. I think this game is really fun and also a bit of a challenge being my first FPS (first person shooter). There are a lot of controls and it is a little confusing but I can do the basic run, sprint, and shoot. My favorite class is the marksman. Overall I think it is a really awesome game.

Exams are over!!!!



Exams ended on Wednesday sorry I didn't post till now. I got out of school on Thursday so I will now have more time to post.
I just finished reading Across the Universe. This book is about a Huge space ship that is going to another planet because the people on Earth feared for a apocalypse. 100 people were frozen in chambers so that in 300 years they would be able to help the people on the ship. One person is 16 and is non-essential. She is not needed and was put there because her parents asked for her. She is mysteriously awakened by a man who meant to kill her.When she wakes up she is taken by the doctor and this boy. She is entering a whole another world.

In minecraft I am trying to build this. This is a image of a walker of sorts from one of my favorite books. I have completed the front half of one foot. It is a very hard build and I can't wait for it to be done.

Creation NATION


Creation Nation is an awesome server from what I hear. This server is a creative world server. If you don't like creative you can go on survival mode but there are no resources. From what I see in the pictures it is a flat plain map. On the site they have a high resolution image of the map. This server looks awesome and probably is awesome. I can't wait to play on it. I also have heard rumors that after 2 hours of total playing time you get world edit.

Update on Unwholly


In this update on Unwholly I have actually finished the book. So in Unwholly the Akron AWOL is running the Graveyard. They know they could be raided at any moment so they have a weaponry jet. Every once in a while Connor takes a small group of his AWOL's and goes to a house to save a kid about to be unwound the next day. They still get the kids boxed up in a barrel or box every time a jet comes. One day a boy called Starkey come in a coffin (this is what they sent them in). He is alive of course they don't send dead AWOL's. He is someone who likes to have power. He may die for that power and will kill others. Will the juvies attack?What happens you must find out.                                          .     I have this project that I am doing for my Social Studies class. It is really fun. My partner is one of my friends. This project is about different countries. Each group has a different country. I have Ethiopia in Western Africa near Somalia. I have to paint the flag on to our show board. It is actually kind of fun and easy. I have had a little help though. I can not wait till this project is complete!!!

Everlost

I have been reading but I just have not posted about the books so today I am posting about Everlost, the first book to be posted about in a while.

Everlost is a separate world from the living world. It is in the same place and the same time as the living world. Children, only children go to Everlost. Everlost is a place for things that were so loved that they will always be alive. In Ever lost memory is more powerful than gravity. If you forget how you look you can change how you look. You can forget your name in Everlost. If you try hard to forget something you will never forget it. It takes 9 months for you to wake up after entering Everlost. Allie and Nick both died in the same car crash. They woke up at the same time. Nick was on his way to a funeral and Allie, I forgot wear Allie was going. Nick was eating a chocolate bar so he had chocolate on his face. When they wake they meet Liefe. Liefe has been in his forest for 200 years. He will leave that day. What awaits them in Everlost find out by reading the book.

Investopedia (stock simulator)





Investopedia symbol
chicken that inspired me
Investopedia is a stock market encyclopedia. It also has a stock market simulator. I joined this because I am interested in the stock market. It is fun in a way that I just gained 17 dollars on say Microsoft. I sadly am not home when the market is open usually so I have to order after hours and receive when the market opens. Today Disney gained .10% from when they opened, BUT I bought it at $62.01 IT CLOSED at 62.00 I just lost 25 cents since I owned 25 shares. That is kind of how it works.
Also this
weekend I plan on making another skin. This skin is going to have a chicken on the back of a hoodie or shirt. I was inspired by a Google image of a minecraft chicken. I will post pictures when that is done.As well minecraft 1.6 will becoming out some time this May.

Minecraft 1.6 snapshots



The other day I was reading about minecraft 1.6 the update. It has not updated but one rumor is confirmed NO MORE REDSTONE. There will be some new mobs one being a horse. Mojang is actually working with the creators of mo-creatures to do this. Some people want there to be more water animals in the water biomes since that really does need a update. I also think they need to add squirrels and make cows ride able with the saddle. That would be fun riding a cow. Adding corn would be cool too. If they add sharks and dolphins you should be able to ride them as well with a saddle for faster traveling. Also make the saddle craft able. This is what might be in it and what I want to be in it.

Fantasy of Flight

Yesterday I went to Fantasy of Flight. This place is owned by Kermit Weeks. Kermit owns the largest collection of WWII air planes. I have a lot of good pictures. There is ethier a fake B-52 or a real one that you can walk inside of in the entrance. That day he was flying the p-51 mustang and there were also a ton of mustang cars near the grass runway. I got some pictures of him flying that as well. Here are the pics: (I took these with a digital Cannon camera) I took in total 85 pictures.

Slice of Life: Aligators


 This week my dad and I went out on a river to see some gators. We did not see many because the air boats were scaring them away. At one point we went onto the shore to try and wait them out. When we started to head back we decided to motor down the other way. We saw a lot more gators on the other side then the one we started out on. Have a happy Easter!

Slice of Life: Hungry Games

Today I watched Hank,Emily and Micheal play the Hungry Games!! In this they play a game that requires them to catch little fishes with a fishing pole. If they win they eat a yummy brownie if they lose they eat a gross brownie. The gross brownies can have stuff from spam to caviar. The good brownies have good tasty treats in them. I don't know what stuff they have in them because they did not comment on the good brownies.
The lord of ages game is awesome I have played it for two days now. In the beginning (where I am now) all you do for quests is easy things like upgrade this or build that. You can also attack things. If you attack the sub volcanic furnace you can watch the action.If you send out your men to attack some thing they either come back with a war report or die in the battle. NOTE: Do not attack the furnace without having archers or more than 10 pike men.I did that and lost all my soldiers. Pike men will be , unless you have a lot of them, mowed down by the artillery and pike men of the furnace. With archers you will be able to attack from a distance this will help you. Also I suggest getting the transporters to carry the men's supplies.
In Minecraft I played more of the battle for Conwy castle. It is fun and suggest you join it. It is almost always full in the afternoon.I played minecraft while when ever I died checked on my Lord of Ages place. A little weird I know but the things take forever to build on Lord of Ages.

Slice of Life

Just so you know while I was writing this I was listening to Fermi Paradox by Hank Green.
My friend emailed me saying I should play this online game. I replied saying that this just looks like a role playing game(rp). He answered saying you build up your kingdom and battle stuff. I am going to join it today. He said I can join his clan I just have to email him on the game thing. I already made a account yesterday I just did not play it. I can not wait to see what it really is. I know for certain you make your own kingdom but I do not know how you battle. The other game I had like this you just put your men in certain spots then told them to attack or move. That game was boring. This game seems like a lot of fun.

Slice of Life: Minecraft Battle For Conway Castle

This Slice is about Minecraft THE BATTLE FOR CONWAY CASTLE. There are about 4-5 maps were you will battle with the other team. The maps are: Conway, another Castle, Mines of Moria, and a Island with Pirates. My favorite is either Mines of Moria or the other castle.  All of these maps were actually made by the owner of the server Rockslides.The Mines of Moria are fun because there are so many places a archer can get to and shoot the unknowing team underneath. Also if your in that spot there are no torches so it is hard to see you. Also on the mines there is this part with these huge pillars that get smaller as they go up. it is really fun to climb as high as possible on those pillars and fire down. I beat my 5 killstreak record up there. My stats are not the best I have like 43 points. I also am a archer so when I see a swordsman I run away fast. I do this because even though four arrows take down a swordsmen they are dangerous when near by. They will purposely chase 2 archers than chase 1 other swordsmen just to get the kills. When you are a archer you have 48 arrows and a power 1 bow. It takes 3 fully charged hits to kill another archer. As a archer you don't get many kills you really only weaken the enemy while the swordsmen and spears men whack away at them.

Slice of Life: Alex Rider 2

Today I am going to talk about the next two books in the Alex Rider series. I also will talk about the Minecraft Forge 1.5 update. For starters the Forge 1.5 is horrible. One reason might be that I don't know how to install a new Forge update. I also tried to by deleting the bin folder and running minecraft like the forums says you should do. I did this installed the new forge and Minecraft would not load. How bout it folks it wouldn't work. I kind of want to try mod loader because people online say it is more reliable than Universal Forge.  I do not want to get mod loader because Forge seems to have better mods on it like clay soldiers.
Now for Alex Rider. In the Point Blank and Alex Rider almost dies, again. In Point Blank Alex is sent to a boarding school for rich kids. He is sent as Alex Friend son of a major super market company. The kids here are all troubled and have bad pasts such as stealing and such on. At this school they suddenly have manners. Then two of the fathers of kids here die 1 week a part. MI6 looks into it what do they find read the book.

Slice of Life: Halo #2 & Alex Rider

      This week I started reading Hades (bottom right) and Alex Rider Stormbreak.    (------> top right) I really liked Stormbreak and might not continue Hades because Alex Rider has more action and Hades is not fully like Halo. Hades is also so far not as good as Halo.
I just finished Stormbreak and at my library it doesn't say the order of the books so I grabbed the third not the second. I will have to go back and get the second now.
I can not wait till spring break I am going to read and relax and sleep and have a ton of fun. I also will play more minecraft and maybe download a new mod. If you would like to suggest a mod put a link to the download in the comments.If you like action and spy books Alex Rider is for you. If you love books were two lovers are pulled a part Hades is for you.
DFTBA,
Squirrely

Slice of life: Unibrows

 Today at my school someone said,"You have a unibrow?"
I said ,"No," and continued working on the school work. He kept saying you have a unibrow. I also kept saying no I do not. When my mom picked me up from school I asked her,"Do I have a unibrow?"
She said,"Yes,we will need to shave it." I did not think it was really visible until I got home and saw the hairs were almost connected. This is really all I have to say today wait I did finish Halo it was a really good ending.

Slice of Life: Farris and Fosters

 Yesterday I made chocolate at Farris and Fosters. I did not really make chocolate I just made chocolate molds and covered things with chocolate. It was really fun and they put out tasting trays so you could eat  chocolate while making it. After you were done making your chocolate you would put it on a tray and they would put it in the freezer. After all your chocolate was done you had to weigh it. If it was a pound you would pay the 20 dollars. If it was a 2 pounds then you would have to pay 34 dollars. Every pound you went over was 14 dollars.

Slice of Life: The Redstone Minecraft Update

Today I will talk about something I have not even looked played or seen. The minecraft redstone update.In this update a ton of things have been added. The trap chest has been added. The TNT cart also is here. Redstone block has been added as well. The weighted pressure plate.Quartz and quartz block were also added. The TNT cart is kind of fun to play with. If you make it go really fast the explosion will be bigger. If it falls off a cliff it will explode. When running into a block it will explode. do not put 2 TNT carts one right in front of the other they will explode on contact with each other. Other wise have fun with this amazing update.
