Name
Question, why are we calling it Ender Sand? It's got the whitened texture of Cobblestone, so I'm thinking it'd be safer to call it Ender Stone? Serrix 01:00, 9 October 2011 (UTC)


 * It could be Ender Wool for all we know. For the sake of less changes, lets keep it to the current name.  No need to make a change when it will likely be proved wrong anyway.  Verhalthur (talk)(contribs) 01:03, 9 October 2011 (UTC)


 * The white cobblestone texture is actually for a different block, not the one in the screenshot that looks like it could be sand. Father  Toast  01:11, 9 October 2011 (UTC)


 * I agree that it doesn't look like sand, I realised after I made the page and checked the terrain.png. But let's not make this a Rename/Move war just over the name.
 * @FatherToast, what do you mean, used for a different block? --HexZyle 04:55, 9 October 2011 (UTC)

Theory about this block.
Has anyone though of the this: Notch could have used a slightly different colored cobble stone texture just to be able to tell this "new block" apart from the rest of them. Just like the dragon has no skin on it yet, this block could have a test texture on it and he used a lighter cobble stone for it. People say that the light cobble stone texture is in the files now.. but that just could be from Jeb not removing the text textures, just like he didn't remove the debug for strongholds. I think this and a few other pages are pointless to have at this time. --Throex 02:07, 9 October 2011 (UTC) Not to mention: Jeb uploaded the minecraft.jar for PR3, three times. I watched him post it, but it didn't post as a link, then he posted it again and had to remove that twitter post and reupload it again and still he left a debug feature in there. That should go to show, that with three differet post and 2 uploads of the .jar that they forget to remove test features from the game. I actually have one of the .jars he uploaded for PR3 and then uploaded another and removed the first download link. I have not noticed anything different from it and the one he posted last, but I don't code nor look for difference nor had the time to do so. But I am willing to share it if anyone else would like to take the time to do that. Plus, I am sure others watch as he did this on his twitter and got the same .jar I did and then replaced it with the new one he posted. Was that confusing? lol --Throex 02:09, 9 October 2011 (UTC)


 * I'm pretty sure the Mojang team are being very careful about what content they are releasing to us. One wrong move and BOOM! Tonnes of speculation posts and rage threads all over the forums. That texture is going to stay, no doubt about it. What it will be used for and whether it will be the surface of the Ender is a mystery, but at the moment that is what it appears to be so that is what we will write about. --HexZyle 04:53, 9 October 2011 (UTC)


 * I completely understand why we are making pages about it, I just feel that its not the texture we will be receiving in the 1.9 update for the ender. Not saying it will not be used for something else in the future though. I just like to think to much about stuff and make up any possible theory just to see what others think about it. You never know though, anyone could be right or wrong. I think a lot of what they do and say about minecraft comes from the fines in general though. I am sure they read/watch this wiki, the forums and reddit just to make sure they are pleasing us. Whos knows maybe they will use "endersand" as the name since they see us using it already. lol --Throex 05:30, 9 October 2011 (UTC)


 * I see where you are coming from too. Hey do you know about the difference in quality between JPEGs and PNGs? I noticed that The Ender pic is in jpg format. Now usually that isn't a problem, but when you are trying to identify the texture of a tiny block in a dark image, it becomes quite annoying. >:( --HexZyle 05:42, 9 October 2011 (UTC)
