The future residence of Blooz's Home for Wayward Mobs (BHWM). Though you can't exactly see it from this angle (I wanted to get a show of the depth) This hole starts at sea level. That is a boat floating on the water in the upper right. Also, to give you a sense of where I'm digging the wall on the left is the edge of the world. More about this below.
And here we have a view from the top of the completed dig. The black paths you see at the very bottom of the dig are bedrock. I forgot to check at what y my sea level begins. I do know the first landing there on the right is about y=40. You can also see, in center frame, the beginning second tier of the BHWM. I'm doing a modified verison of Ethos's practical mob grinder from the youtube video. As you can see, I've tried to address the flaw Ethos noted in that I've expanded the dump hole from 1 block to 4, meaning mobs shouldn't stack up as much. Of course, doing so forces the pin-wheel effect you see.
Here we are from bedrock, looking back up. Again, at this point of this picture, the BHWM only has one tier. Given the depth I have available, I should be able to build 6 tiers without ever going above the roof. (And yes, the roof is underwater, so the whole thing is invisible on a map .
So why build where I did (in the the very corner of my world). The biggest determent to a mob grinder's efficiency is unlit caves beneath it. I reasoned that, by building in the corner of the world, underground, I would minimize this impact. While digging this hole, I only found one cave system - you can see the steps up to it in the picture above. - and that only extended for about 100 blocks. I did find a dungeon embedded in the world's edge. That was an intersting find in that, because it was in the world's edge it was only about half the size of a normal dungeon. Still trying to figure out what to do with it.....

Retired StaffIf anyone wants to see the first redstone computer made on 360, check out my album. It was recently featured on MCX Photos.
You can find more detail on it in the thread under topics in my profile. There is also a thread containing a video.
I will have some pictures up of my Transport rails in the air later on tonight for your viewing pleasure.
A lot of wonderful ideas from you all, thanks for sharing as well.

Retired StaffIn your own thread, you can generate a decent discussion. On threads like this, everybody forgets about your creation once a page has passed.

Too bad overworld mobs can't go through portals, I'd say leave it there and use it to try skellies into fighting your ghasts.

My modern house (lower right) and Observatory.
Nothing at all was duped EXCEPT the Iron Blocks for the Observatory "doors".
(I need to clear out the rest of the mountain that is in front of my Observatory. It's pretty dang big when you can see the whole thing!)
Seed is Anime Lagoon for anybody who is interested. I'll get more pics tonight.
