I already did it, but scaled it down to a single block.

That Pyramid is freaking huge (i have a house in it) and took like a month to build. i think we should definitely do something like that.

I've been building an EXTREMELY large undersea dome for some time now, my end goal has been an undersea city where I clear out an area of the oceanfloor, then build out a dome that connects to the initial dome, rinse repeat. (Basically the first dome would be converted into the main hub that would mostly be an undersea biodome, connected to it would be a market dome, residential domes, etc)

Currently the primary dome starts 1 block below the surface of the water and goes all the way to 1 block above bedrock. The dome is large, I don't have the size on hand nor the cords, but I'll post them when I get home. (Currently the underground rail road does pass a tunnel marked as leading to the dome, however; this tunnel doesn't have a rail through it yet, and it's a pretty healthy hike.)

If you're looking for the dome there is a suspension bridge and someone build a small sky city above my dome. (blocking my wonderful view! I think the player stopped playing, but don't want to get in trouble removing the cobblestone eye-sore.)

I've been looking for help because clearing the ocean floor, while full of resources is a VERY slow process.

I'm also thining when 1.3 comes out making a dome that is strictly a Testicate sanctuary, but getting a pair of testicates down there will be VERY challenging.

Spotted it on the Live map (Hurray for actually being visible!) of coarse you can't make it out well since it's under the water, but it's at 978, 65, 298 of coarse the height is wrong, but just pointing it out if you're curious.

(Basically I've got the most of the dome sorted, still clearing out stuff though)

Shouldn't be too hard to get them down there once you have your rail lines installed.

the exact location of an entrance is secret but the place is http://mc.twit.tv:8123/?worldname=survi ... y=65&z=298 the one problem is when you are down there you have to deal with the bedrock fog but it looks like a real nice place.

Also note, entrance has moved (the secret one was just a temp thing)

I've got a tunnel in through the unground rail ways, but no rail has been run yet

I DO strongly recommend the no void fog mod though :P otherwise it's a little dark, but mostly done, I also have my own semi functional slime farm just North of the dome :D
