MMM Inc

MMM Incorperated is a company that actually predates Mappercraft by approximately two years. However, on Mappercraft, it was formed during Vegatable/Multi Earth World, and provided several different services. In particular, the MMM Stone Market became a frequent stop for many foreigners visiting Suirenzhen.

## Pre-Mappercraft

MMM INC was founded in early 2013 in Phoenix, Arizona. MMM Inc's orginal focus was on Minecraft products and services, but also branched out into the real world. From 2013-2014 MMM Inc would create several minigames for a variety of minecraft servers. During Summer 2014, MMM Inc would relocate to Upstate New York, in order to take advantage of several tax laws that had been recently implemented in the area to support start-ups. The focus of the company would shift toward supporting larger minecraft servers, instead of the smaller ones they had supported previously. This continued until early 2015. January 2015 saw the planning and shift toward a different focus: Lego Minecraft stop motion animations. In addition, the company was reorginized as a subsidiary of a new company, 3BrosInc. Both of these changes were implemented on February 15th, 2015, with the private showing of their first Minecraft-Lego Animation "Wood" (https://youtu.be/Nqb-E6RXbwE). From there, many projects would be taken by 3BrosInc, while MMM Inc was put aside for other divisions. In Summer 2016, the company was reloacted one final time, to Northern Virginia, to take advantage of the highly educated workforce. On October 24th, MMM Inc released their first video for public consumption. Following that, MMM Inc would take a larger role in 3BrosInc, growing out from Minecraft content and into some other gaming related content.

## Discovery of Mappercraft

On March 23rd 2020, an MMM talent scout discovered Mappercraft (which at the time was on Solace World 2) and suggested it as a good place to expand MMM Inc's products and services. However, at the time MMM was working on several other projects, and would not be able to provide any services to either Solace World 2 or the Hawai'i Map.

## Vegatable/Multi World

### **Egypt**

When Vegatable/Multi Earth World started, MMM Inc was interested in having starting business in Egypt. On 11/3/2020, only a week after the world opened, MMM Inc was formally established as a Egyptian Company. The main idea of MMM Inc was to allow people to invest in the company, and recieve precentages of the profits based on their investment. The main industries at the time were diamond mining, and selling drink at the Minty Bar (graciously provided by the Egyptian Governement). The first investors were Bonito Pibb and Owning69. On the week of 11/7/2020-11/13/2020, Multi invested in the company, and new industries were opened. MMM Railways and MMM Money conversion were two new divisons of the company, to deal with railway placement, and money conversion. On 11/30/2020, after a month-long sint, MMM Inc was reorginized and severly cut down in size and scope. The investment experiment was ended, with all investors getting their money back. In addition, several of the divisons of MMM Inc such as MMM Railways, were closed down for good. However, the Minty Bar stayed as the primary driver of profits. Shortly afterward, it was discovered that the leaders of Egypt, Nicksey and Vegatable had cheated. MMM Inc decided to move operations to Dajiang in light of this discovering, as they wished to remain an upstanding business.

### **Dajiang**

The emperor of Dajiang, Sikorskiii, graciously provided MMM Inc with a location to move the Minty Bar to, and also provided potential future economic opprotunities to expand. Later, MMM Inc would also be gifted a Brewing building. Also during this time, the Minty Bar would expand it's business into Musical Records, becoming the Minty Bar and Record Shop. After 7 weeks of being not officially established on Mappercraft, MMM Inc was once again reorginized and reestablished. A report was released for the changes between 11/30/2020 and 1/24/2021, and new weekly reports were required. The new flagship industry of MMM Inc became the MMM Stone Market (full name: MMM Stone/Food Market and Currency Exchange). The primary features of this Market were a currency standard of 64 gold to 1 diamond, and 64 iron to 1 gold. This allowed the Market to maintain a diamond standard while offering prices lower than a single diamond. The other primary feature was the ability to both sell and buy to the common market, and daily price changes based on the amount of products bought and sold. While the Market was not used very much in the weeks after it was started, it became a popular place after several consistant weeks of advertising, as well as new products. On 3/10/2021, in order to better communicate the daily changes in prices, the MMM Inc discord server was formed (https://discord.gg/bs7phAJqJg). On 5/3/2021, MMM Inc went through it's latest change, with the addition of a database system that allows players to access MMM Inc internal documents (such as weekly reports). On 5/8/2021, as the world was ending, all MMM Inc operations were put on hold indefinitly, to be resumed at the start of another world.

## In-Between Worlds

In-between the end of VMJ World and the start of the next world, MMM INC developed a bot to allow players to access the datebase more easily. This bot was named the MMM INC Internal Database (MIID) and was publically launched on July 20th, 2021. Currently it is on Version 0.15. Additionally, during the interim period, the CEO of MMM INC, MintyMichael, agreed to host the server, making the status of MMM INC in the next world uncertain.

## Brave New World

A day after Brave New World opened (October 9th, 2021) an announcement was made in the official MMM INC discord server that declared that MMM INC would return in the new World, and that MIID was down for an undisclosed period of time. Additionally, it was stated that MMM INC was looking for a location of the relatively successful MMM Market. After two weeks of setup, another announcement was made on October 22nd, 2021 that the MMM Market would return on October 25th, 2021. A location would be given when it opened, although it was generally assumed to be located somewhere in Port Royal, the nation MintyMichael was part of. On October 25th, 2021, the Market reopened, with a slightly different selection than previously. In addition to returning materials Cobblestone, Dirt, Stone, and Smooth Stone, the Market also included new materials Cobbled Deepslate, Copper Ingots, and Tuff. The Location was revealed to be in Port Royal, just east of the Capital (the announcement incorrectly referred to the location as "west" of the Capital). As of 12/17/2021 the products available at the Market include Andesite, Blackstone, Clay, Coal, Cobblestone, Cobbled Deepslate, Copper, Diorite, Dirt, Granite, Gravel, Netherrack, Quartz, Red Sand, Redstone Dust, Sand, Sandstone, Smooth Stone, Stone, Stone Bricks, Terracotta, and Tuff.

## Dissolution

Following several weeks of inactivity, MMM Inc assets were liquidated by their parent company, 3 Bros Inc. Their discord server was deleted and the contents therin sold at auction. 3 Bros Inc has not responded to requests for comments on the dissolution of MMM Inc, although presumably the lack of activity and profits resulted in 3 Bros Inc restructuring the company for future investments, ultimately choosing to dissolve the company rather than re-organize.
