The mob spawns seem oddly distributed. I've had times where i hear nothing for a night, but see 10 death messages and other people dying. The next night I'll stay just a bit to long, 3 steps from my base, and the mobs will come out of nowhere with a horde. I'm getting more and more paranoid. Hopefully off work soon. I need a few house of play time, both to unwind from pricing 50 year old fragile paper all day, and to make yet another set of armor and start leveling up new tools. Yesterday was harsh and lost a couple of sets. Out of lava, out of bronze, need coal for torches. The fun never ends.
