    Brief Description:
    This way creates a type of cheat to place water more than once every 60 seconds if the individual does not have the water feature.

    Instructions:
    1. Have atleast 2 buckets filled with water
    2. pick a block that you want to place water on
    3. back up 5 blocks so that the block you wish to place water on is not outlined
    4. place the water
    5. repeat with the second bucket to find that you can place the water without waiting.

    How many times did you recreate this?:
    I recreated this at least 3 times but not for the purpose of filling water where i wanted it only to test this.

    Result:
    should be able to place multiple blocks of water in under 60 seconds without waiting

    Expected Result:
    This is not supposed to happen and the user should have to wait 60 seconds before placing the water

    @andrewkm

    Was able to replicate this on an alt:



    Placing water from a distance that's sufficiently far so it doesn't outline the block allows for placement that bypasses the 60 second cooldown. Rather easy to do as well, you simply have to be at a block that's reachable when from where you are (and can be outlined once your head/aim is sufficiently downwards) while keeping your aim/head upwards enough to avoid outlining the block.

    Can't find any reports of this nature since the start of 2016, months before people without the water feature were able to place it.
