Watchers/Amplified Event

People starved until they didn't. Two bases were based in, Lunaris betrayed the Watchers, much gear was lost, gear was farmed again, a final battle occurred with a worldborder mishap that caused a final duel between Clownpierce, a temporary ally of Lunaris, and Scarecrow of the Watchers to duel for the event. Clownpierce, and therefore Lunaris, won.

## Phase One: Domination

**Hunger** Food was incredibly scarce, as usual in these events before fishing was possible. Many giant red mushrooms were available but giant brown mushrooms were almost nowhere to be found. The few that were available were crafted into soup, the primary food source of this event's earlygame, since any mushroom farms at that stage would undoubtedly be raided.

**Death** Spoke leaked the seed for the world before the event started which allowed the Watchers to obtain the location of many important structures and ore deposits. This let two members of the Watchers get diamond very quickly, and ClownPierce was able to craft a set as well. An enchantment table was also quickly made, and these resources jet-started the Watcher's progress. Due to this, the Watchers set off on multiple raids collecting diamond armor from people they killed. A base was constructed, bordered on three sides by amplified mountains and the worldborder. Player-mined cobblestone and blackstone gifted to everyone by Spoke was used to built a wall bordering the lake and a few towers. String was obtained and fishing commenced, alleviating the hunger problem to a degree. The one brown mushroom in possession of the Watchers was brought to the base by qomatose and an enclosure was built in an attempt to make a mushroom farm. At some point, it was stolen by a naked. Mooshroom cows were given to all nations, greatly helping the hunger problem.

**Skybase** Due to the base being hard to defend, the Watchers found a clean suitable skybase that was easily defendable and moved there. Some Watchers logged off, leaving others to guard the base: Gorilla\_PvPr, Chalchis\_10, Honey\_Puns, hdpow, Peporongo, Rotorboi69, and the newest recruit, ShadowShowz. While there, Chalchis, Gorilla, and ShadowShowz grinded full protection 3 armor and sharpness 3 swords for each of them. Two members of the Watchers stayed up very late with Chalchis\_10 sleeping at 6am and Gorilla\_PvPr around 7am.

**Raiding** During their stay, Gorilla\_PvPr, Peporongo, and ShadowShowz would attack any diamond player they saw or heard. This would allow the Watchers to gain armor to enchant and combine into higher level enchants. This caused the majority of the server's diamond gear to land in the hands of the Watchers. Chalchis\_10 would handle guarding the base and would regularly kill naked players coming into the base.

## Phase Two: The Fall

**Exploration** With the skybase being abandoned due to excessive raiding, the Watchers would roam around the map killing random factions whenever they showed up. There were three groups of Watchers roaming around, the normal watchers, Watchers at their current base, and the Lunaris Division. When the group of roaming Watchers encountered the Lunaris Division, they were betrayed and Lunaris attacked them, successfully killing leetlong and causing Chalchis\_10, Peporongo, Rotorboi69 to retreat.

**Beginning of the Fall** With the information that Lunaris betrayed them the Watcher's regrouped and only moved around together until they encountered Lunaris engaging. Scarecrow successfully killed Zeet\_\_, but was unfortunately killed, losing the items. Eventually Watcher after Watcher fell with until the greatest loss of Encrypt and Chalchis\_10 dying and shortly after Goldrush40, JJJDestroyer, Hxypy. WIth all these losses the only geared players of the Watchers, Gorilla\_PvPr, ColdSpare, Khaoticcc, were offline.

**Regearing** The online players of The Watchers decided not to give up and went mining. As soon as they got good enough gear, they attacked two nations, Restoration and Peace Coalition. This would re-gear Chalchis, Encrypt, and Gorilla with protection 1 diamond armor in time for the final battle.

## Phase Three: Final Battle

**Rally** At this point with Lunaris preparing for the final battle and Gorilla\_PvPr already logged in, Khaoticcc also joined the game. With the members ready they regrouped and set off for the newly made location of the Final Battle. More factions were killed for gear. Luckily, hdpow got Spoke to whitelist ColdSpare so the final geared player of The Watchers was here ready to fight against the traitors, Lunaris.

**Mistake** The final battle was about to begin, so the admins shrunk the worldborder. However, the worldborder became too small too quickly, and many key members of both sides started suffocating. Almost all of the Lunaris members died of suffocation, except for Clownpierce, a temporary ally, who managed to escape. This let the Watchers steal much of the gear and begin targeting ClownPierce.

**Duel** Spoke made the decision that the leaders of the two sides would send in their leaders to fight each other for victory. With Lunaris sending in ClownPierce and the Watchers sending Scarecrow, it was just a matter of time until the duel occured. Deciding on equal gear Clown and Scarecrow began to fight. The first battle ended with ClownPierce winning which hyped up Lunaris up. Scarecrow decided that he would be especially aggressive this round which worked and against all odds killed ClownPierce tying up the score. The final duel began, and Scarecrow realized that Clown outclassed him with an axe which brought him down to low health until he died, making ClownPierce and Lunaris the winner of the event.
