Notch's Work Calendar for Minecraft

I just came across this image and I’m fascinated by it. Here are some of the highlights:

  • September 23rd, 2009 – Notch runs out of money to pay for server while on vacation, servers are down until he gets back.
  • Lots of vacation to play games.
  • Nov 23rd – Notch looses key to office. No one can work.
  • Dec 23rd – Notch takes the day off to write single word reviews for games.

As someone who never got deep into Minecraft and wasn’t aware of the history I love seeing how it all started and how he tried to manage his time.

Related: I’m currently reading Masters of Doom and if you like video games it’s an interesting history lesson. I’m only a few chapters in, but it’s great so far.
