Be careful with your Sandgun if you load up with Pearlsand! (or Ebonsand for that matter.)

I was test-firing at night at some zombies near my home to see if I could use these blocks as opposed to regular sand, which you can. While I thought I had collected back all the sand I shot, it seems I missed one because when after playing some more and logging out, when I logged back in, 75% of my home-base was Hallowed.

I then had an hour+ cleanup and drastic scouring of my home base and buildings, including digging deep to find every last blade of blue grass. I felt like a Chernobyl cleanup tech.

I also had made it more difficult on myself by making most of my home base out of stone, rather then making bricks. This required a whole lot of digging out and replacement of actual buildings and not just terrain. Lesson learned! Alternately, if you want a fast way to spread the Hallow deep inside the Corruption.....
