Hi everyone,

I'm trying to write this calmly but I haven't slept properly in three nights so sorry in advance if it's messy.

I generated a new hardcore survival world with the seed 2147483647 (yes, INT_MAX, just for fun). At first nothing weird, classic forest biome, a few pigs, a cow. I built a small cabin near a lake and went mining.

When I came back up at dusk, there was a structure 200 blocks to the north. A kind of cobblestone pyramid, 4 levels, perfectly symmetrical. I NEVER built that. I'm playing solo, local, no mods except Optifine.

The next day I found signs planted in a circle around my cabin. On each sign there were things I never typed:

"he's watching", "don't dig deeper", "stop", "go home", and a last one with just my spawn coordinates written backwards.

My coordinates change on their own at night. I log off at X=124 Z=-67 and come back at X=0 Z=0 with no death message, nothing. My bed is intact but moved by one block.

And then there are the mobs. Zombies, skeletons, creepers, all STANDING STILL. They don't approach. They stare at me. If I step forward they step back exactly one block. If I shoot an arrow they don't react. At dawn they despawn normally, but always at the exact same spot.

Last night I saw a figure between the trees. Not a standard mob. A player. Default skin but no pupils, just white eyes. When I looked again, gone.

Has anyone had this? I'm starting to seriously wonder if my save is corrupted or if it's something else.

Dude, it's probably just a chunk bug. Happened to me in beta 1.7, structures generating twice because of a seed overflow. Delete your .minecraft/saves and regen. Nothing paranormal here, lay off the coffee.

...I saw the same figure. Birch forest, around midnight in-game. Empty white eyes. I thought it was a screen glitch then it moved. I deleted the save within the minute. I haven't played solo for two weeks. Do what you want but I'm telling you: delete it.
