0xffff-1 chunks is a hexadecimal number -1
0xFFFF is a hex number, equal to 65535 (the high extreme of the unsigned 16 bit integer), -1, which then equates to 65534. 65535 is also 2^16-1. Correct me if I'm wrong on the hex->dec conversion I'm too lazy to open a new tab. Since I cannot edit the Splash page, I need someone who can to do it.

C++14 is the standard C++ version
There is an ISO standard to which C++ version is standard. This version is C++14.

This is obvious, but I don't want to make the update because I don't have time to learn to do it in a polished manner. I request you do it and then maybe delete this entry in the talk page.

Also, the Drr! Drr! Drr! reference is partially due to the old "Far Lands" aesthetic; the weird holes in the wall reminded people of the comic.

Also, the "Gargamel plays it!" is additionally a reference to one of the classic "seeds" that was spread about online.

"This is good for Realms"

We need sources. Skylord wars (talk) 11:20, 22 February 2018 (UTC)


 * Possibly also a reference to the well-known ZHOOlOr.png, but I don't have a source for that either. --Pokechu22 (talk) 18:00, 21 July 2018 (UTC)

Thanks for the fish
I believe the splash mentioned in the title not only refers the addition of fish, but also the line "So long and thanks for all the fish" from the intro to A Hitchikers Guide to the Galeraxy. The song is sung by dolphins, which were also added in 1.13 –Preceding unsigned comment was added by 2.108.224.146 (talk) at 17:34, 19 July 2018 (UTC). Please sign your posts with


 * . Not only the intro, but the title of a book (see Thanks for all the fish, which redirects to the book title).  It's probably a reference to both. --Pokechu22 (talk) 17:39, 19 July 2018 (UTC)
