Just to let you guys know I'm currently working on building a base in some tunnels underneath the river downhill from spawn. I know I've already dug into someone else's mine by accident and have blocked up the passage for now.
Just thought I'd let you know in case someone decided to deepen the river and then flood my tunnel network.
That would be me. by

Now, for the explanations.
I began with the ugly pseudo-cube on the top of the pyramid, before beginning to mine it my usual way: going downwards, carving a room 4 blocks huge, strip-mining them and covering them with torchs to explore with minimal creep intrusion.
However, I usually don't do this on a hill, so I ended up piercing it again and again. That was when I decided to build proper walls for each room, making sure I knew its limits, and eventually creating something which could be spotted by people coming back from exploration.
Since that was quite ugly, I settled for the pyramid you saw, with a face cut short for not encroaching on Spawn Central's underground, and a zone more advanced for covering a cliff of the hill.
Now, if people want to work on it too, by amenaging the rooms or helping for decoration, I'd be glad to let them do this. The structure can also be a relatively secure start point for mining the galleries.
The lowest room for the moment also has got a small garden I began, although the room is to amenage (the all-cobble floor is a mean for me to know if I'm still under the structure when I'm mining deeper, although accomodations will have to be made for the garden. Eh, a cobble 'road' could be made for the galleries too.)
Of course, if you find it ugly/useless, say it. I can always bury it with the dirt I dug. Or making bigger degrees to make more space for each room. Anything you deem fit.
