I was inspired by AngelaManchee's Speeding to the Nether Experiment and I wanted to see if I could do the same in under one hour. I just made it in 59 minutes, 15 seconds. I would have been faster if I hadn't been ambushed by two skeletons towards the very end. This is how my new Survival mode game started. I am staring at at tree. I guess that is as good a start as any because I needed wood immediately! When I looked around, there were trees everywhere! Within a very short time, I had my first set of wood tools completely crafted and was ready to start digging deep down into the ground. It wasn't too much later than that when I got lucky and found some coal. I used this along with the sticks I crafted from the wood to assemble plenty of torches. I also upgraded my pick to a stone pick. The next step: search for some iron! I did find a lot of iron alongside my staircase tunnel, and upgraded my pick to Iron for fast...
