The story
The default server-list icon of Minecraft, pack.png, was added in Alpha 1.2.2 (November 2010) and nobody knew which world it showed. After an 8-month community hunt led by SalC1 with the Minecraft@Home distributed computing project, the seed was found in September 2020. It is probably the most famous seed in the game.
Notes
- Load it in Alpha 1.2.2 for the exact original terrain; newer versions generate a different world from the same seed
- The iconic cloud-and-waterfall cliff is at x=49, z=0
- The hunt searched 281 quadrillion possible seeds with BOINC volunteers
