The Old Spleefosseum (Spleef Colosseum) was the first Spleef Stadium of it's kind in Cubic Worlds, incorporating an automatic reloading mechanism and a self-contained collector. It was built entirely by masternoj and bhirsch. The Old Spleefosseum is located directly South of Greenview Plaza, and can also be reached on Line 2 of the Greenview Rail Station.
The arena is now unusable, as it remained in Pixellia when the world was locked.
History
The Old Spleefosseum occupies the site of bhirsch's old Spleef arena, which was smaller, lacked viewing stands, and had no reloader. In addition, those who lost there had been known to die of the fall to the collector below, which still stands today.
During the summer of 2011, masternoj and bhirsch tore down the old arena and built the Spleefosseum in its place, adding the new features of a built-in collector and auto-reloader.
Recently, bhirsch has vanished from the scene in Cubic Worlds, leaving the Old Spleefosseum in the hands of masternoj, who has been known to throw impromptu tournaments.
Because of the design of the collector, spleefers had been known to get stuck in it, so in January of 2012, masternoj rennovated the collector, extending the rear section to allow spleefers to escape.
Upon the locking of Pixellia, masternoj decided to leave the Old Spleefosseum where it was and construct and entirely new Spleefosseum. He was aided in this endeavor by the timely return of bhirsch. The new Spleefosseum is much grander, contains more features, and is not made of cobble.
