"The Aquadome", A Multi-Purpose Arena for All!

I think the big problem we're having is time and not getting distracted at this point...

I like shiny objects too much...

MEGA SCREENSHOT UPDATE!!!

Lots of little things have been going on in this area. Here's a pile of pics I have... Some of it is planning I did in Creative, some of it is removing dead projects, some of it is PA loving this build.

"Is it done?"

No. Go away.

Heya PA! It's been a while. I've been through a job change and now that I am settled I, I hope to have more time spend back on twitcraft and want to get this thing DONE!

Hey! Sorry I didn't respond earlier. Been zoned out between Mumble and working on this. We swapped out the circuit you had to a smaller one because I didn't like the fit (Yours was more complex and therefore took more space). Hope you're OK with it - Sorry if not. You're welcome to come out and help finish it up - We're close to completion, but I know I'm going to need some design ideas for the area leading into the event floor + those pesky corner lamps that still don't look right. :/ I've also caved and agreed that the control booth needs to be on the west side (opposite of the scoreboard).

We finally finished the scoreboard this evening (Thanks to KJ4IPS and geo131313!!) and I've started enclosing it I was able to flood the majority of the dome this evening. That means...

New construction gallery!

Timber's Pumpkin-God donation can be seen in some of the pics... I want to keep it for now, but it might eventually go away... Be sure to take your photo-ops with it while it lasts!

First, BIG thanks to thornton77! I hopped into the Nether tonight to work on getting the Aquadome portal connected to the Netherroad and he had already done all of the work! Thanks so much!!

Second, thanks to Night, Dragon, Geo, and KJ for helping out the past few nights!

Third, here's some pics from tonight's/today's work:

Here's what still needs to be done:

- Hallways leading combatants to the "holding area" (small room right before the Event Floor doors on the east and west sides)
- The northeast corner needs to have a glass dome + columns installed
- Store and gambling stalls need to be built near the combatant's entrance
- Touch-up/slight aesthetic changes to specific walls
- A permanent entrance to the Admin Area below (most likely in the Control Room)
- Filling in some of the area where the combatants enter. We need to look into gambling games or other ways we can decorate it to break up the space.

I'm not going to be bold enough to set an opening date yet again, but I think we're getting close to at least a preliminary opening very soon.

:takes deep breath:

I'm playing on FTB from now on. Peace!

LOL I wasn't going to connect without permission!

I was going to build a path right up to the wall, get permission, and then knock down said wall...

Yes'm. Sorry'm.

Poster, there is a difference between what I consider "Middle-Nether" and my vastly superior Netherroad
I would like to formally apologize for snapping at Thornton for doing something that is entirely in his rights.
I was under the impression from Mr. Lushy Head Creepy Uncle Poster that thornton had modified my Netherroad, not the "Middle Road" in the main access point of the nether. I behaved more than a little bit rudely when I could not find the road that I had thought he had made. (Thankfully I wasn't completely flipping out.)
Again, I offer my sincere apologies and will be more careful to understand the problem before I start yelling at somebody in the future.

Yeah! You should really manage your temper, DH!

I would assist you with this but, having always been the pinnacle of level-headedness, I cannot sympathize with your position of explosive tempermentalism...

Another large pic upload and an important announcement!!!

Tonight, I broke the final block of the drydock! The Aquadome is now 100% Underwater!!!

Here's the pics: http://imgur.com/a/lwmhT

Several of us have been discussing led light a multi-purpose arena for some time, but no one seems to have taken the initiative to actually break groud on this project. I'd like to begin gathering a small group of players to discuss and eventually design and build such an arena somewhere near Leoville. We would need at least a few "master craftsmen", players who are known for their ability to design/decorate, but we would also need regular builders/suppliers who could do the grunt-work of clearing land, building the basic structure, and supplying raw materials as needed.

Does this project interest any of you? If so, respond to this thread with a good day/time you can meet in Mumble to discuss this. Please remember to mention your time zone for a frame of reference. Also, if you do not have a microphone you may still participate - Mumble allows voice and text chat at the same time.

Very very interesting project for me.. How much have you achieved? I will surely love to help you if needed..

Heh. Check out the link I made in my last post. We're almost done.
