On a different computer,
I made changes to an area, saved, and closed down the window.
I relaunched Minecraft and none of my changes were saved.
=======================
this removes the theory that there's something wrong on my computer via software or hardware


I do see your changes in there though Josh.
=========================
removes the theory that the HDD is bad (and the fact that your disk check is clean)



Possible issues:
- my user profile went bad
- the world file is corrupt, since Josh is hosting it, he's not hitting the same problems
- 1.9 pre 3 bugs


The only things I did different in my area:
===================
- made an enchanting table
- played a bunch of records


I remember playing with Mike and Ed on Saturday. I kept asking them, "is the game slow for you guys?". Frame rates were choppy. Picking up blocks had lag on it. I was building right on top of an area that reverted too. Also, it wouldn't stop raining, maybe 2 hours straight of rain.

:sad:

We need to re-roll the world on the 18th anyways. h:
