He actually found the cause of the missing cascading block texture bug thanks to starting to use torches. He just always forgot to prepare them.

[Nelia Hawk]

i think when they found the water down in the caves he placed a torch in the water too somehow

[Wolf Tengu]

Yeah, I saw that torch there, and I was all 'What the?'.

[Baneling]

Oil based torches that can burn underwater.

Makes perfect sense! Apart from the whole oil floats thing.

[Frumple]

Hyotl space magic oil. It doesn't float, except when it does. Which state it's in depends on the needs of the user! The future is then. E: The secret ingredient is Hyotl.

[Sean Mirrsen]

Hylotl don't burn torches. Because it wastes valuable air underwater. At least that's what the description of a torch in that one dungeon said.

Also, maybe they're fusion torches? Or they could electrolyze water into hydrogen and oxygen, and burn that.

What is this i49 they keep talking about? I gather it's some sort of convention or game conference, but where and when? All google gives is stuff about US highways.

You gotta remember, in the early days of terraria you could also place torches underwater. I guess they just haven't put in a check so you can't place them underwater.

It's a gaming festival : http://ukcs.net/iseries/insomnia-49-dates-confirmed/

It's also probably where they'll be announcing some form of release date, hopefully.

... or maybe there IS NO GAME, and the developers are all in remote beachfront villas sipping on mojitos and laughing at all of us from atop copious piles of pre-order money.

This makes me curious...what would happen if this were to be true? A class action lawsuit? That'd be quite a scam, what, over a million dollars? Two million?

[Knight of Fools]

Depends on how much they have in their overseas accounts and how easy their new identities are to track.

But judging from the updates and streams it'd be a scam on a level where they might as well have just made the game.

[Maldevious]

I bet a thoroughly talented creative writer and a really good pixel artist could pull it off. Split the money 50/50... live like a king for the rest of your days!

Still, with the streams it'd probably be easier to just make most of the games than to have someone acting like they are playing a game while a video is playing or what have you. Heck, it'd probably be easier to make the game framework than the streams. (But if they skipped those, it'd be more realistic.)
