A combination of low point value and the fact that it was near impossible to build meant that most of its potential went completely unrealized. I'd certainly trade it in the state it was for a more reasonable field element; note that "more reasonable field element" does not mean "easier design challenge."
To be fair, though, I admit a few changes (easier construction, more point value) probably could have made the pyramid much better than it was.

1. There's this (kinda strange
) kid named
Gregor running around ChiefDelphi. I suggest you read the first line of his signature.
2. 1918 would like a word with you about "low point value" out of the Pyramid.
3. What would your definition of a "more reasonable field element" be?
