You're not going to believe this... but when I lead the poll (momentally) in the previous BGB I thought that it should be cool to make it about tiny characters in a gigantic world....  :-X

Preppairing my entry!

EDIT- Guess I could have refined this room a bit. I made it quick last night thinking the contest would be ending in minutes.
