If darkinit can return the TNT that got stole from me I have 10 blocks of it and enough gunpoweder to make 5 more. I could use it to help with the pit.

**Anvildude**

We've got the pit cleared. Now we're just finishing the walls up, so it looks nice. I still think there should be either a giant ramp, or a huge elevator-style platform next to it.

And we need to determine what the titan will actually look like- I'd suggest using dirt to 'sketch' the shape and size of it before doing anything else.

Agreed, once we have the shape done, we can work on the accutal materials we need for the proper, finished version.

I assume we are going for a detailed interior as well? At least for the command area.

**Anvildude**

For command, yes. I think we're going to have a whole Loading/Maintenance rig set up around it, so a catwalk to the cockpit area would be fine.

**4oursword**

As far as that walkway to the cockpit goes, it'd be quite a climb- the head will likely be at Y=100

**purplefood**

How much obsidian will be needed?

**4oursword**

I think we have enough, I got 50 blocks from grundz

**Anvildude**

50 blocks, or 50 stacks? Because we'll probably be using Obby for a lot on it. But again, use Wool and Dirt to build the basic titan first, before replacing it with the proper materials.

**4oursword**

only 50 blocks

I thought of doing this with my big projects too, its too much of a pain in the ass, you are better off doing it properly once than improperly once and many of those materials will fall and not be recovered as you break and replace them.

I have almost a double chest of enderman balls for you guys too once the build starts, they DRAMATICALLY decrease the time it takes to build.

Just realised that the pit isn't fully widened.

You'll need to ask in the sticky thread (At the top of the Video Game section) but you haven't been on the forum long enough...

**adrenaguy**

I feel sullied and repressed.
That's not true, that outcome is entirely fair...

It's to stop griefy flamey people who break our precious pixelated world... also to stop dragons but that's an entirely different reason...

**adrenaguy**

I assume it's a matter of opinion when I can come on, rather than a specific minimum of something I need to reach... Is that a fair guess?

Give it a month or so...
Ask Darkinnit, he's the Wizard not me... i'm a rabbit.

**adrenaguy**

Cool, thanks. For now I'll mess with skyblock n_n

**purplefood**

You're welcome...
Welcome to Dakka by the way...

**adrenaguy**

Should've probably looked for a "say hello" thread, rather than jump right in.
But I -really- like minecraft...
Hi, thanks for the welcome :3

You are a wizard! Grand Cone Rabbit doesn't have the same ring to it...

Yeah but of Azeroth which doesn't exist...
It's all waffle for my CV really...

**TrollPie**

4oursword,
I'm terribly sorry but while looking at the signs on my shack I was attacked by a creeper. I repaired the wall but I can't remember what the signs said. I left replacement signs attached to the wall with an apology on them.

**4oursword**

No biggie. The signs were useless really.

**CrazedVaultBoy**

Pics guys?

**4oursword**

I'm afraid, gents, that due to the new update, the pit is rendered utterly unnecessary. I have begun to cover it over.

Scout for a new location if you like.

**CrazedVaultBoy**

may i please join?

**4oursword**

You need to ask in the stickied thread at the top of the forum.
