| − | Sorting a ''Minecraft'' world into layers like this would be a near impossible task, especially in the version of ''Minecraft'' (Beta 1.2) that was current when this comic was released, which did not even include the enchantment system that allowed for tools that could mine exceptionally fast, meaning that even the sheer time to mine out such a large area would be astronomical, not even considering the time to replace the blocks in proper layers, or to gather resources for the many tools you would need. In later versions of ''Minecraft'', it is possible to naturally generate worlds that resemble the world in this comic using the "superflat" world generation mode, but this was not a feature in ''Minecraft'' when this comic was released.

| |
| − | :[Megan is seen side-on, with her right arm raised & bent at the elbow to hold a partly-visible cellphone up to her ear. Cueball appears in a small inset panel halfway up the left side of Megan's panel, holding a cell phone against his cheek.]
| |
| − | :Cueball: Hey! Know how you've been bugging me to play Minecraft for the past year? I'm game. | |
| − | :Megan, on phone: But you said you didn't want to "get hooked and spend days on end moving virtual cubes around while sitting motionless." What changed?
| |
| − | | |
| − | :[In the second panel, Cueball is sitting in front of a coffee table as seen from his right side, with thin lines representing a stack of magazines on top of the table & a small potted plant with four leaves on the other side.]
| |
| − | :Cueball, on phone: I'm having my wisdom teeth out, and I'll be useless and doped up on painkillers for the next few days, so that actually sounds like the perfect distraction.
| |
| − | :Megan, on phone: Oh. I'll set you up on our server!
| |
| − | | |
| − | :[A caption box on top of the third panel reads:]
| |
| − | :: 72 hours later...:
| |
| − | :[Megan is sitting at a desk, her phone again raised to her right ear. She is looking at a LCD monitor standing on top of her desk, while her left hand is on the keyboard shelf.]
| |
| − | :Megan, on phone: Hey — starting to feel better? Enjoying the game? Let's see what you've... What the hell? Where ''IS'' everything?
| |
| − | | |
| − | :[View of a Minecraft screen showing a vast empty expanse of land. In Megan's hotbar is, from left to right, an stone pickaxe, sword, and shovel, seven feathers, 42 torches, a non-enchanted bow, a blank space, 64 blocks of stone and a clock. He has full health and 15 armor points.]
| |
| − | :Megan, offscreen: ...You made the entire continent perfectly flat?
| |
| − | :Cueball, offscreen: And sorted it into layers.
| |
| − | :Megan, offscreen: ...
| |
| − | :Cueball, offscreen: I feel good about things. This is a good game.
| |
| − | | |
| − | :[Cueball is sitting on the floor at his laptop, bleeding from the mouth, surrounded by bloody wadded-up tissues and holding a bottle of medication.]
| |
| − | :Megan, on phone: ...What exactly is in the painkillers they gave you?
| |
| − | :Cueball, woozy: I can't read the label because I'm a hologram.
