Meh, do what you guys want. I'm just voicing an opinion.

Just please keep your TNT shenanigans away from my stuff.

I don't think it is ugly
and it is cobble and jungle planks, get itright
and it certanly prettier then his first suburbia house, no offence coolyo

It's ugly, it's way over the height limit, and it almost totally hides my house from view on Dark's lovely .png file! I vote for TNT.

You all may think its ugly, but maybe Coolyo thinks it has a rather rustic simplicity to it that makes it lovely.

I think all of your houses EXCEPT Coolyo house is bloody hideous!

I know that, but at least it's hidden!

Hey, least it's not a cube, eh?

Also, if I think your house is ugly, Blap, do I get the right to nuke it with tnt?
And that is why I hate that rule, everyone has different tastes, what you call ugly, I call beautiful

sure, if everyone hated it, then coolyo would have to rebuild, but not everyone does, so, yeah

It's still too tall :p

I would appreciate it if the angry mob would take down the tower without using fire or TNT.

My House was underwater, so you couldn't see it.

That's nice. Why mention it?

Well i assume you were making a slight Jibe towards me.

Otherwise, please, do explain.

Of course not old fellow, that'd be rude.

I was just saying, at least the tower isn't a cube, that's all.

In picture one it's the building furthest right far above the house limit. I would just say that it should be made smaller.
The materials aren't too disagreable and with some Architectural tweaks it could be very nice...

The building is fine, just cut the top off and youre good.

Say I just nuked myself a hole in Suburbia to live in, would it be acceptable?

Can anyone live in suburbia?

Probably no to the hole, the TNT could potentially damage the surrounding houses, roads or lamps (which would probably get you killed in the case of the lamps ).

As for living there I'm pretty sure you just need to find an unclaimed plot then build there.

Oh, I already live there. I just want to live in a massive hole.

Look for the monolith, i got a DEER hole under that. There is a ladder that goes down.

Huzzah! I have a hole!

And not the one that sprays about mobs like confetti under my house!

you have a hole under your house... remember, you complained about it...

But the house is in the way I suppose.

The owner has spoken. No TNT. Put down your flint and steel and move along people.

Yeah, it's actually the default texture pack . However, the lighting, shadows, reflections, gloss etc are all Blender.

If you want to try it on your Single Player worlds, this is a good start on how to do it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LjmwrJ11yho
Blender is a tricky beast in itself, but there are good tutorials:

No, you already have a huge hole, don't go making another. As far as I know Suburbia was supposed to be lots of small houses all together, not giant holes. If your hole is full of mobs, don't you think a new one would have the same problem? Just light up your hole with torches and block off any passages that are "spewing mobs".

I tried. Then I got munched by Mobs.

I'm seriously considering nuking the basement, as it seems to actually help Mobs creep into Suburbia. Either that or I need some resources and a bodyguard.

I would like to visit your basement.
I don't think it's that dangerous or difficult.
I just think your lazy and TNT happy, without much TNT
