So I played Minecraft for the first time today. I spent about 4 hours building a temple and a giant reflection pool in front of it. Then, when I tried to drain water into in the pool, my canal had a leak in it somewhere and water spilled all over the valley and flooded my masterpiece.
I then spent another hour building sponge structures to suck up the monstrous amount of water. I finally got rid of all the water and started eliminating the sponges, only to find that I must have left a water tile somewhere and my valley was re-flooded.
I hate this game.
