PVP Castle has been remade.

This time it is a realm near spawn. I hope for the community to help me build it because I am leaving it public so we can use buckets, TNT and such while fighting. I have laid down the base floor but I hope for it to be much better then the first. Feel free to go there and add floors, buildings or anything. Just make sure its good for wars and not just for looks. Make sure there's at least 2 exits in each room/building.

Thanks!

For all our sake, turn TNT off. Some idiot will blow it to the blocky moon if he sees people enjoy it.

I think you meant
Some idiot will blow gaping holes in the side.
Because tnt makes a hole about 7 blocks wide in cobble walls. as most people have less than the number of tnt to make it permanently Unusable, I would guess that it they would mainly just blow holes in the walls and such, and attract creepers (who would blow it to blocky mars).

remember, anyone without a grinder running will have to manually make tnt, means they usually can't get more than 10 (50 creepers) or so in a short period.

will it be pvp off during construction, im not bringing my diamond pickaxe or more than a few stacks of place-ables inside if not.

also consider making sniper spots, halls, corners, rooms with furniture to duck behind etc, windows to jump out and land 6 blocks down... chasms and maybe a trap dispenser or 2?

The reason the original PvP castle was great was due to it being built by random idiots with nonsensical design, and refined by people that actually know how to PvP. It was a grand building in which the design changed every day.
This is a failed concept since A) Nobody cares enough about it, B) It's out of the way so the idiots won't randomly add shit, and C) The only people interested in it have no clue how to PvP, so it's just a series of dead ends.

all I was saying was to add interesting terrain and environment for combat, not just an open hall.
anyhow, it is public, so idiots can "randomly add sh*t".
must say, for a nonsensical design, the old PvP castle looked very cool, sorta like Hyrule Temple in ssb melee. I suppose hyrule works for fighting too, so thats no surprise.

If you are going to do this, at least lay down some ground rules. For instance: no arrows (arrows are cheap as hell)

Don't have arrows? Too bad.

lol If there were arrows then the only people alive in the pvp castle would be Lightbulbs and few others.
