Info:
The Underground is a project created by Lilboarder, The creator of the Trench Digging mod, with the purpose of creating a mod both social and entertaining.
It has been worked on over the course of years, on and off, and recently Lilboarder came back from the dead and picked up progression of this mod as a summer project. The Underground features a new and original mining system to blockland, and offers more choices in "Home Construction". A big part of the inspiration for this is the underground system from Pokemon Diamond/Pearl.
Currently The Underground is in an Alpha Stage, after much work from Lilboarder and his testing guinea pig/Project Manager, Alphadin.

So a big part of this mod will be the ability to buy and decorate your own base. The social part of this will be showing off your base and going to see others'. Everyone will be participating within one cavern, so bases are going to be scattered all over, and you can check em out.
Will probably add benefits for going into other players' bases. If you go to the "important stuff" link, that shows an older topic where some detailed information about how this works was posted.
Edit: Another big part of the social interaction is the mining itself. Bigger bricks take a lot to mine them, and would be a pain to try by yourself. With a buddy you can mine these a lot quicker to yield more, and also more rare, gems.

Excellent! Can't wait for the server to be up to try this out. Also, best "social game" idea ever? Yes. Primarily because it's not just repetitive grinding to get better stuff to help you grind faster. Also there's no option to pay real money for game-breaking bonuses, which is always a plus. I'll definitely try to make it tonight.
