Scary mob? Really?
I doubt this is the supposed Scary Mob. Fish arent really scary

(Edit by another person) Actually, silverfish are a type of wood eating insect, that also eats paper and clothes.

Not a fish
I doubt this will be a fish: silverfish is a well known house bug and the texture closely resembles the segmented, conical body of that little creature while at the same time not looking like a fish at all. I think that the "fish theory" in this article is unlikely enough to deserve deletion.--Wedhro 17:38, 30 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Thats what I think too. It is scary for girls, but not for all scary :) Kurtextrem 18:16, 30 June 2011 (UTC)

3D structure
Would be interesting to see whether a viable 3D structure of this mob could be created using blender or something. --SpitfireBro 18:00, 30 June 2011 (UTC)
 * That's quite impossible with the information we have now (just the texture). It's really hard to tell what shape something is, just by looking at a texture. The model doesn't need to be "foldable" from the texture, the texture's sides might not be next to each other in the model, since it is possible to map the dots of the model to correspond to any point in the texture. I'd say that is mission impossible, and we need to wait for the official release... -- TheKax 07:09, 1 July 2011 (UTC)
 * After taking a closer look at the texture, I'd say it might be cylindrical (well, in a blocky way of minecraft) with different radius parts... I put together this kind pf small estimate of it's shape... Just a word of warning, this might be horribly wrong. And it's ascii art, so the wiki formatting screws it up, so open the edit mode, I put it into a hidden comment below to spare your eyes from the jumble. -- TheKax 07:19, 1 July 2011 (UTC)


 * PS. and this might not have gone horribly wrong, since silverfish is an actual insect, and it is similar in shape as my ascii picture (again, look in the edit mode!): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Lepisma_saccharina_1a.JPG hope this sums it up. -- TheKax 07:24, 1 July 2011 (UTC)

Reason it's scary
Silverfish are supposed to eat wood right? aren't houses made of wood? Ray 22:16, 30 June 2011 (UTC)
 * no. designer and new player's houses are made of wood.


 * also, there is a fish called a silverfish. --Kizzycocoa 07:48, 1 July 2011 (UTC)
