In less than 24 hours after launching the panorama application; a volunteer host for Minecraft@Home, in a sheer stroke of luck, found the world seed, 25357015387625. This was approximately 93 days of processing time at a total of 54.5 exaFLOPs compressed into the last 24 hours. The specific host which located the seed belongs to the user vanos0512. Thank you to the 137 users who contributed 181 hosts with 231 GPUs over the last 24 hours. You all accomplished this. Here are the details if you want to generate this world for yourself: Minecraft version: Beta 1.7 Either of these two valid world seeds: 2151901553968352745 or 8091867987493326313 Co-ordinates: x60, y76, z-67 See the video released by EarthComputer announcing the finding.

Oh shucks, I missed getting to contribute to that... then again, I don't think anybody expected to find it in a day... So, how about looking for a water world? ID: 298 ·

But for all pending Multichunk-WUs the credit is lost! For example the following Results: https://minecraftathome.com/minecrafthome/result.php?resultid=2757877 https://minecraftathome.com/minecrafthome/result.php?resultid=2771437 https://minecraftathome.com/minecrafthome/result.php?resultid=2772677 The link in the results to the Workunits is broken.
