Spawn

A photo from November 26, 2019

Spawn is the first thing everyone sees and that makes it one of the most popular places on the server. It has a long history of both building and destroying.

Nowadays the center of spawn is griefed very hard until around 500 out. Until 1K out you can still find a lot of smaller griefs and ruins. This area is mostly seen as spawn, however, sometimes 2K to 3K are considered a part of spawn too, as you can still find a lot of ruins and smaller griefs here, even some intact builds too.

Spawn is also the place where most events take place (they won't be mentioned on here).

## History

### Early days (AnarchyMC)

The first thing build at Spawn was Royschouten's 100 base, built 100 blocks out, it didn't last very long.

At first, spawn had almost no griefing besides small cobble walls and some buildings. It was very easy for a player to walk out of spawn and find trees. This would last for quite a while. 0,0 Castle was built in June and destroyed by early july.

In late July, Eccentricat began work on an extensive farm at 0,0 within the ruins of 0,0 Castle as his first project on the server. While only lasting ungriefed for about a week, being at spawn allowing Eccentricat to establish relationships with many other players at the time and would eventually lead to the founding of 3am.

On August 1st 2019 Eccentricat would found 2 other farms near 0,0. One, in the side of a large lava cast, was the farm he was working on when he was lured away and trapped. Several players came to his aid and would eventually become the founding group of 3am.

The other farm Eccentricat made on August 1st was what would eventually become Mesopotamia II. Founded within a pyramid lava cast, it would lead to Eccentricat meeting Biblioklept for the first time. The two would work together on several projects and small bases around spawn.

The Steel Shield began construction of public places such as Mesopotamia II and The Eastern Canal around this time, which allowed many new players to get a jumpstart on their adventure. Highways were made too(not by Steel Shield), most aren't that great and don't go that far though. The portals at 0,0 were also made. Elysium also made Point Hope in early September.

However, Mesopotamia II was soon griefed, and spawn began to fall apart in late 2019.

### Fall

Spawn began to fall due to rapid griefing and a change in attitude that most anarchy servers see with "oldfag/newfag". Someone made large spawn walls that prevented new players from getting out, and many griefs were made to drain resources from the land, for example, the spawn trenches made by Liquidityx and TriggeredCat.

By 2020 the spawn was completely gone besides 0,0.

### Disrepair

The\_Biblioklept was the owner of the Steel Shield and had left the server, he later came back but only worked on the nether and not the overworld. The canals fell victim to griefing, but still survived due to their size. Portals, while existent, were scattered unless at 0,0, where you may only find one portal working at a time.

### The big grief of February

Before February 2020, spawn still wasn't that bad, there were 4 main highways from 0,0 which made escaping spawn very easy. There were so called 'movements' created by new players, like a ripoff of TeamNoTrees (a 2b2t Group), but these never took off. However, somewhere in early February, one or multiple unknown players grief spawn very hard. Multiple new lavacasts were created. In total the griefed area of spawn doubled.

### March - May

During this time, spawn got griefed a lot less. There was a new lavacast here and there, and Michi games tried to remove most portals around spawn, except at 0,0, but besides that, there weren't many griefs. However, this doesn't mean spawn was inactive, there were definitely some events like the Easter Event 2020, Aprilfools Event 2020, and the The\_Rog's concert, there were also some 1v1's held by Aurora Empire, although these were in The Netherlobby and not in the overworld.

There were also some things build. Stinits and kaosic built the water cube, v6q build his first and second museum at spawn(both got griefed). There were also some small farms built, but they got griefed.

### June-August

In early June The InVursion happens and Team V takes over spawn. While they are here, they build Reunion Castle.

In early August, AthenasThong builds Firedome. Later Perstrix would create Specterium PVP and hold PVP tournaments here.

### Second Alliande days

In early September Paul Oak builds a church/chapel right at 0,0 with some farms around it, after a around a week it gets griefed by an unknown player.

In the days of The Second Alliance, Spawn gets a lot more active due to them having small meetups. There are also multiple fights between the Alliance and The Anti Alliance. During this time Reunion Castle also gets completely griefed by Paul Oak on his alt Lawrence\_St.

### Post-Alliance days

After the Second Alliance gets disbanded, Spawn at first becomes a bit less active due to the meetups stopping. However, this allows new players to be more active at spawn. A new player repairs the basement of Reunion Castle, the farms and also adds some other stuff, he renames it to The Spawn Sanctuary. Someone else also builds a huge cobblestone pyramid with a big melon farm on the inside.

There's also more pvp at spawn between members of different factions and also solo players. Some players like Vidra-Lutro(Mopplekotze) start bedbombing players and shouting Islamic propaganda in chat, letting players to say Spawn got taken over by radical Islam and terrorists. There's also some PVP between Razok, Mopplekotze and b1gbo1h20, and some Team V members like Liquidityx and Storm.

### November - December

During this time spawn becomes a lot more active due to Razok often invite people to hang out at spawn. Melon pyramid also gets semi-griefed by unknown players.

### Covenant days

On January 9th, Michi and Roy build a house right at 0,0, later other people start adding houses to this and Michi names the place 0,0 village. The place would be griefed and repaired many times by many different players.

On the 10th, 8zi\_ decides to spawn 22 withers at spawn with help from Michi, later SoloMaker and Perstrix. They placed them all over spawn, close to 0,0(mainly in the overworld but also a few in the nether) and give all of them unique names, like: 8zi\_'s gift, honk, 10zi\_, Michi On Top, Yeet Machine, Perstrix's pet, subscribe to Michi, I have the highground, EZ MAD, General Obi-Two Kenobi, The senate, The Enderdragon, hausemaster69, hello there, Whalecum to Specterium and some other names.

After this, Mopplkotze decides to spawn wither too. He spawns around 128 withers and names around 2/3 of them "Gold On Top", the others stay unnamed. The same day Perstrix also placed 5 stacks of Ender Chests around spawn.

In late January, AthenasThong wants to make 4 obsidian highway going from 0,0 to 2k. He and kaosic build the +z one in a few days, kaosic also built a canal going from around 0 -600 to the Eastern canal. When The New Engineers are made, they finish the project in one day. They also make an East and West gate where the highways crosses lavacasts. Razok later griefed these gates and small parts of the highway, although the highway would be repaired pretty quick. He also griefs Firedome with a few other people.

In January, 0Xed and Mopplkotze make an (crying) obsidian hub at 0,0 similar to The Netherhub. The New Engineers also repair Melon Pyramid. Later Kampouse makes multiple canals around spawn in a square at around 160 blocks out, he also makes a canal underneath 0,0, among other places, and expands the Eastern Canal. He later also makes The Western Canal going from 0 -160 to -1768 -160.

0,0 village would be rebuild and griefed multiple times.

### March - May

Due to inactivity from the Covenant and New Engineers, Spawn stops being maintained. A new group made by KnotMC, known as The Unknown Organization decides to grief spawn, so they grief the 0,0 overworld hub. Later they get killed by Covenant members a few times and the group disbands. There's also some pvp between Razok and his allies, and Covenant, the battles were mostly won by the Covenant.

In early April ErikTheWarlord mostly repairs 0,0. Later an unknwon players (presumably Fray\_way who was also in the Unknown Organisation, drains all of the canals around 0,0, but doesn't grief them. Shortly after this the New Engineers repair them. Michi also finishes the Western Canal.

On 09/04/2021, Svik griefs 0,0, he did some minor griefs to The Netherhub and some major griefs to the overworld 0,0, he also casted 0,0. The nether is fixed by Michi the next day, although it takes several days to clean up 0,0 in the overworld, this was mainly done by The New Engineers(Michi and ErikTheWarlord) and Froot\_loops. Although they don't clear the entire cast so the ceiling is now a bit lower. A newfag named Qptifine also builds a house at 0,0, but it's blown up by StatStat the next day. Michi also burn down some forests at spawn.

On 22/05/2021, Mopplkotze makes a new watercube, right at 0,0. Later someone adds a roof to the spawn hub to keep it dry.

### Summer 2021

During this time someone(possibly squeezer6ix9) also expands Melon Pyramid by adding a second floor to it.

On June 28th, Stat builds a new arena at the location of Firedome: Coomdome.

On the 5th, The Suscursion is held at Spawn.

On July 8th, the New Engineers start working on Mesopotamia IV.

On 24/07/2021, Stat covers melon pyramid in crying obsidian, he did it in a video. On the 29th he also griefs and rebuilds his own Coomdome to make it bigger.

On 18/08/2021, Stat makes a small castle made out of gold and crying obsidian.

Also during this month, a player named reeeeeee makes an obsidian dick at 0,0 with his group "Small dick energy". It lasts for quite some time before being griefed by THI.

### Late 2021

In mid-October, Slurnsy(an SDE member) remakes the obisidan dick and makes it bigger (15 stacks of obsidian), THi griefs it. A few days later he remakes it again, this time with a full shulker of obsidian. This time THI changes it into one big obsidian cube.

In early November, poopylegos covers much of spawn in moss.
