So im still considering craftys data, and i just read sonething that states that the reason i might be seeing so few slimes is related to how far i am from spawn.

Uni is my #4

i have to consider craftys numbers and compare it to some other data

SOoo basiclly 9 out of 10 players agree there are no slimes, and no other solutions. Prices to low? Raise them till they arnt. Cactus green requires farming and processing, Potion requires farming and processing and you get 1 for 2 for all that work.

If there no slimes we are missing a major part of the game WTF?!?!?!?!

Put a slime spawner at spawn then we need slime dangit.

I just explained that I havnt "lost" anything. I saved 9 diamonds, and now can buy as many as i want for sugercane.

Well, I have a solution.

This is Shrek.

He trades Cactus green & Mundane Potion for Slime Balls.

Here is the command.
/summon Villager ~1 ~ ~ {Profession:2,CustomName:"Shrek",CustomNameVisible:1,Career:1,CareerLevel:42,CanPickUpLoot:0,PersistenceRequired:1,Invulnerable:1,Attributes:[{Name:"generic.movementSpeed",Base:"0f"}],Offers:{Recipes:[{buy:{id:"dye",Count:1,Damage:2},buyB:{id:"potion",Count:1,tag:{Potion:"minecraft:Mundane"}},maxUses:9999999,sell:{id:"slime_ball",Count:1},rewardExp:false}]}}

So this auction has taken so long I wont be bidding again.

Because I now have my own "Mending" villager.

I will be selling them for 8 diamonds & 11 emmys each.

So BoB is it 4 hours from my bid or 13 hours from your post of Le'reset

Thank you Taco & Ardo. Ardo though, again your making my point. Slimes are not supposed to be a rare spawn in swamps, compared to say Magma cubes in the nether.

And I have encountered almost 100+ Magma cubes in that time.

People. Regular average players, should not have to build a grinder just to get some slime balls. I can't even find 1 or 2 in swamps to make leads. Proving a negative is a logical difficulty, but i dont see you showing screen shots of wild slimes in regular swamps. So i will make a timelapse of a regular swamp, at full moon and show you that normal slime spawning is broken.

Can i get some admin or crafty input here please.

And please don't just tell me that because on an "SMP server mob spawn rates are low, and mob cap,bla bla bla", I know that.
I'm telling you that after approximately 138 hours of play I have never seen even 1 slime spawn in a swamp. NONE....!!!!!

Well if this is going to be the response then I guess I will do the TLDR. I have done 3 lengthy experiments, and talked to other player. You may have seen a few, but thier spawn rate is below even magma cubes.
