Seacraft 2.2.3 - 2.2.9

*The Forgotten Period*Please note that the following content may contain assumptions as some of the information has been lost or forgotten.
<< Seacraft 2.2 < Seacraft 2.2.2 **Seacraft 2.2.3 - 2.2.9** Seacraft 2.2.10 > Seacraft 2.3 >>

The versions of **Seacraft 2.2.3 - Seacraft 2.2.9** have been largely lost to time. It's likely, given Seacraft 2.2.10 is properly understood, that this range of versions all occurred during the New Town Boom, mostly during November 2014.

## Likely Version Additions

### Noobafication Centre

If not released in Seacraft 2.1.1 - 2.1.5, the Noobafication centre may have also been released in early 2.2. This was built in modern-day Hollow Hill, repurposing an abandoned structure. The Noobafication Centre provided education on how to become a noob, providing completely false infomation about Minecraft. At the end players were quizzed on what they head learnt.

### Auto-Announcer Fix

If not released in Seacraft 2.2 (or perhaps Seacraft 2.2.2), then the Auto-Announcer's interactive messages would have been fixed during this time, on the 27th of October at the latest, according to the third issue of Seacraft Weekly.

### Reef Crystals

Reef Crystals, Seacraft's second currency, were likely introduced on the 1st of November, 2014. Unlike Gems, Reef Crystals were not a physical currency. Instead, they were saved to a scoreboard. This meant that if players wanted to make shops, they would have to put in a request at *Business Makers* at Mainland Plaza, now called *Business Co.*

Due to some Memory Crashes in the middle of November, scoreboard data was deleted, including Reef Crystals. The re-introduction of Reef Crystals was suspended until Seacraft 2.3.

### Suburbs

It is likely that Suburbs were introduced between the 31st of October and the 7th of November. The boundary markers dividing the suburbs were absent in a video recorded on the 31st, but on the 7th of November, "Oceanview" was mentioned in the server's chat for the first time. It is known that Oceanview was not previously named before becoming a suburb. The introduction of street names would not come until Seacraft 2.2.13.

### Seacraft Info Centre

It's likely that the Seacraft Info Centre was built during this time, in order to inform players of all of Seacraft's various systems. The warp to Mainland at Spawn was replaced with a warp to the Info Centre, allowing new players easy access to the Info Centre. Leaving the Info Centre would take the player to the Seacraft Centre.

### Area Maps

It's plausible that the maps of Spawn, Mainland Plaza, Sam's Dragon Village and the Seacraft Castle were also first made during this time. However, they were known to disappear and had to be replaced every so often.

## Numbering

The numbering of these versions has been lost. It is believed that 2.2.4 and 2.2.5 were likely version numbers, but any others are much more speculative.

## Dates

An odd thing about this period of time is that the server only ever restarted twice on the 27th of October. Server restarts were performed when the server was updated, in order to update the server's 'message of the day' (MOTD for short). The only other times the server was shut down during this time was due to unintentional server crashes. It's possible that many of the changes attributed to this time period may not have an update associated with them.

ZacNVR has another theory, however. If he recalls correctly, there was a time where he didn't have to restart the server in order to update its MOTD. This would allow for all the minor versions in this range to have their own MOTD without a server restart. If true, this would also bring the release dates of Seacraft 2.2 and 2.2.2 into question, since the currently assumed dates are based on server restarts.
