The Great Migration

The Great Migration was an event in The Old World where several players left the immediate spawn area to build elsewhere in the world. This event led to creation of the Tree Top Community and the eventual need for the Underwater Railway System.

## Impact

Although it could now jokingly be considered The Un-Great Migration, or the Not-So-Great Migration, back in 2012, the move was a major milestone for the players of The Old World.

It was the first time anyone headed into a previously unexplored area of the map and the smaller map sizes at the time made it seem like a much greater distance was being traveled.

It also sparked a boom period for creativity as connecting the different parts of the world became essential for fast travel.
Sun of Peculier

Sun of Peculier is one of the home bases of Peculier32.

When WhiteLikePaste announced the Aquarius project, Peculier32 requested to build a home, hovering over the new location. It provides 24 hours of daylight to the Aquarius residents (not really). Completed in March of 2021, the sun consists of 2,566 sea lanterns, 3 floors, and 2 bubble elevators. The interior remains to be a work in progress.

Hide and Shriek 2nd Chapter

Withering: The Island is an event that took place on September 24th, 2023. For this event, Oldies battled 16 Withers using The Island as their battlefield.
DarkKnight4313

DarkKnight4313 *(formerly Timmy turner 26)* is a player who originally joined The Old World when it was first opened as a realm in 2019, but left shortly after to start his own realm. He was invited back by Black1ightningg in 2020, but was mostly inactive before eventually leaving right before the launch of Caves & Cliffs: Part I to restart his realm.
The Realm Report

"We pride ourselves on our completely factual, unexaggerated, hard-hitting journalism." - WhiteLikePaste

The Realm Report is The Old World's longest running news program. It consists of monthly update videos produced by WhiteLikePaste for The Old World YouTube Channel. The idea for a monthly update video was originally suggested by GreenHound862 shortly after the YouTube channel became a larger component of the realm. WhiteLikePaste liked the idea, but wasn't sure of the best way to approach it. The series is stylized after a nightly news program with the primary focus to communicate information about The Old World. However, it occasionally features comedic elements and is intended to be a sattire on the news media as a whole.
The Spawn Building

The Spawn Building was envisioned as a place of refuge for newcomers to The Old World.

## History

WhiteLikePaste conceived the idea for a building at spawn that would provide food and shelter for players just starting out in The Old World.

The building was fully stocked with food, crafting tables, and enough beds to accommodate up to eight people.

Although it served its purpose, the building was never aesthetically pleasing. The decision was made to demolish it in 2016.

For a while, the plan was for The White House to eventually fill the role of what The Spawn Building was initially intended to be.

However, after WhiteLikePaste relocated and officially moved into The White House in 2020, he began working on a new building on that would serve that purpose. This build was eventually completed by RescueLynn81.
TOW Tour 3

### Participants

Black1ightningg, Kryptic Charger, Mama071416, Peculier32, POS princess91, Prof Panda9655, RescueLynn81, TheAmazinTurtle

## Chronology

### Next

Withering: Shopping District

The 3rd TOW Tour is an event that took place on March 26th, 2023. It was the second qualifying round for The Old World Open 2023.

## Event

The event itself was pretty streamlined and went mostly without issue. Where there had been several instances where participiants had overthrown hole 2 in previous events, for the most part it was not a problem this time around. The most challenging hole proved to be hole 7 which resulted in two notable deaths by Prof Panda9655.

### Shootout

After finishing the final hole, there was a tie between Black1ightningg and Kryptic Charger for 1st place. The official Ender Golf rules established by UptonOgood1 prior to the first Ender Golf event stated that a tie would result in a shootout. However, this was the first Ender Golf event to actually result in a shootout. As no location had been predetermined for a shootout to take place, the first hole was used in this instance. Kryptic Charger ultimately overshot Black1ghtningg by roughly two blocks to win the event.

## Aftermath

This was the first TOW Tour to not be attended or won by JustCaIIMeBMX and the first event to be won by Kryptic Charger since he joined The Old World. It was also the first Ender Golf event to end in a tie which resulted in a shootout to determine the winner for the event. Following the event, discussions began around adding a dedicated shootout location to the golf course to resolve this situation in the future.
Tank Town

Tank Town was the first attempt at a community build project after The Old World became a realm in 2019.

## History

Three months into the start of the realm, the player base was mostly separated. Realm members had left spawn and established their individual bases all throughout the world.

In an effort to bring everyone together, WhiteLikePaste wanted to create a community build project styled after a suburban town. He reached out to the realm members to gauge interest, and after a generally positive reception, decided to move forward with the project.

The location for the town was chosen based on its relation to spawn. WhiteLikePaste wanted to make it as easy as possible for new players to reach the town immediately after joining the realm.

### Preparations

The area selected for the town was largely dominated by trees. WhiteLikePaste and EliteXxX worked to clear the trees over the course of two days.

Violenttank010 expressed interest in plotting out the area. He created a grid pattern that essentially gave each player a chunk of land to work with. ChozoLegacy1129 was commissioned to design a road that would lead directly from spawn to the town.

Afterwards, plots were presented to the realm members and construction began.

### Development

Violenttank010 became heavily invested in the project. In addition to creating the general layout for the town, he designed the roads, built the town hall, train station, and even set up a trash disposal system. Other realm members started working on their individual houses, but many never got around to it and their plots sat vacant for the duration of the project.

### Aftermath

When all was said and done, WhiteLikePaste considered the project a failure. With the vision for the town having never truly materialized, a section of the player base became inactive or decided to leave the realm entirely. The most notable of these being Violenttank010 himself.

Due to Violenttank010's heavy involvement, WhiteLikePaste began referring to the project as Tank Town. For the next year it sat mostly abandoned and forgotten, until it was repurposed as the Shopping District in 2021.
Skyland

> "The most efficient chunk of dirt in the sky." - EliteXxX
>
>

Skyland is the former primary base of WhiteLikePaste.

## History

The idea for Skyland originated during the construction of The Tower. WhiteLikePaste had envisioned a floating island in the sky. However, height limitations at the time made the project less desirable.

Originally the plan was for Skyland to only be accessible through The Nether. However, it was discovered during construction that linking the portals was impossible due to max height in The Nether being restricted to only 128 blocks.

This resulted in it only being reachable by players using Elytras.

There are several different components to Skyland. WhiteLikePaste considers it his own little world above The Old World.

In 2021, WhiteLikePaste returned to Skyland for a build tour. This video was posted to The Old World YouTube Channel under the title "Skyland."

## Nether Portal

The Nether Portal below Skyland was intended to be the primary entry point for getting to the base. The idea was that the player would go into the portal, then travel via The Nether to another portal that would lead them to Skyland.

The design for the portal was modeled to look like Skyland had ripped out of the overworld and floated into the sky. lt was built by WhiteLikePaste and dragonninja1324 over the former site of The Farm.

## Current Status

In October 2020, WhiteLikePaste became frustrated with the accessibility of the base and officially relocated to The White House after it was moved using MCC ToolChest. The entire storage room of Skyland was emptied out and transferred to a new location. WhiteLikePaste may occasionally return to utilize the Farm and Livestock buildings.

 Farm/Livestock Buildings
 Potion/Enchantment Building

Underwater Volcano

The Underwater Volcano is a build by dragonninja1324. It is located near SortedFuture13's House and very close to the original map border.

## History

After assisting with several other projects around The Old World, Dragonninja1324 finally got around to starting the project.

First, he did some traveling to find the resources needed for a conduit that would allow him to breathe underwater.

After that, he was able to design the exterior of the volcano.

The Underwater Volcano is currently 90% complete. It is unknown when dragonninja1324 will return to the realm to complete it.
MAD MURDOCK4

MAD MURDOCK4 is a player who joined shortly after the start of The Island in November of 2020. He became a founding member of The Committee when it was established. Rather than build on The Island itself, he was one of the first players to build in the surrounding water. Following a period of inactivity, he returned to The Old World and began working on his own community which he called the Empire of Victoria. During this time he also helped to create the GEMS currency. He eventually decided to leave The Old World to pursue his own projects.

 Empire of Victoria | X: 5243, Y: 70, Z: 1688
The Creative Mode Controversy

Creative Mode is a game mode in Minecraft that was introduced to the Xbox 360 version in October of 2012.

## History & Controversy

The introduction of Creative Mode to The Old World was a controversial decision. At the time it first became available, WhiteLikePaste felt it was essential to sustaining the longevity of The Old World.

It was unknown at that time if the ability to expand the world would ever become available. This meant that certain biomes and items attributed to those biomes would be unattainable.

WhiteLikePaste decided to move forward with Creative Mode and almost immediately began work on a project that the entire community would be able to use, The Arena.

The decision was met with harsh criticism from Bagera King who felt introducing it tainted the integrity of everything that had come before it. However, the same argument could be made for the duplication glitch, which he himself had introduced to the world a few months earlier.

## Future

Creative Mode is currently disabled in The Old World and there are no plans to reintroduce it at this time. In 2019, achievements were reenabled through to use of MCC ToolChest.
Sam's Home Improvement Transactions

Sam's Home Improvement Transactions *(S.H.I.T)* is a storefront that sells windows, doors, and lights.

`Inventory: Lanterns - 8 for 25 GEMS, Soul Lanterns - 8 for 35 GEMS, Torches - 32 for 15 GEMS, 64 for 25 GEMS, Soul Torches - 32 for 25 GEMS, 64 for 35 GEMS, Trapdoors - 5 for 15 GEMS, Doors - 5 for 15 GEMS, Glass Panes - 32 for 25 GEMS, 64 for 50 GEMS, Glass - 32 for 25 GEMS, 64 for 50 GEMS`
The Laggy Locomotive - Dome Station

Dome Station was built in April 2021 following incidents with bugged portal jumps. To aid in travel under uncertain times, as well as offer an alternative route for the less brave adventurer, UptonOgood1 decided to break ground and begin the tunnels east to the Capital. Mining operations took about two days to complete, with assistance from Peculier32 and RescueLynn81 starting the tunnels from The Laggy Locomotive Station in the Capital. The station itself features a large squared wooden structure, topped with a grand glass dome. The inside is highlighted by a large glass chandelier overtop a glass floor with breathtaking views down the shaft below. The front face of the building is adorned with a large clock overtop a covered entryway.

\*Please note, rail line is under construction to be completed with powered rails, however the infrastructure is in place if you do choose to utilise it's services.
Builds
TNT Princess

TNT Princess *(formerly FIREYPRINCESS01)* is a player who joined The Old World when it was opened as a realm in 2019. She is notable for being the first person to stream from The Old World. When online, TNT Princess could typically be found making improvements to her house and the surrounding area. Her house is one of several that can be found along Old North Road.
Underwater Railway System

The Underwater Railway system is an ambitious project undertaken by WhiteLikePaste to create a transit system in The Old World. Although the name implies otherwise, only 1/3 of the tracks are actually underwater.

## History

The railway system came into being when WhiteLikePaste dug a tunnel that connected The Tower to the Tree Top Community after The Great Migration. Eventually, tracks were laid down.

When WhiteLikePaste had the idea to create Hicksenberg, he wanted to extend the tracks north to make the town more easily accessible. Instead of going the easy route and building above water, he came up with the idea of tracks that went underwater but could be seen from above.

While many would assume that this was done in creative mode, the part of the railway system that's actually underwater was done entirely in survival.

### Construction

It was one of the most time-consuming projects that WhiteLikePaste ever undertook. In order to successfully build the structure of the railway, he needed to create a framework by filling the water up with dirt.

The railway tunnel would then be constructed inside of the dirt passageway. Once completed, the dirt was removed and adjusted so that the water could be properly leveled.

   The decision to frame the railway with glow stone came from the desire to see how it would look at night. Originally the glowstone was substituted with cobblestone until enough of it could be obtained. This required WhiteLikePaste to return to The Nether for the first time since The Great Nether Expedition.

### Creative Mode & Expansions

Later on, the decision was made to expand the railway system all the way up to The Arena. This expansion was made using creative mode. It was at this time that the tracks were upgraded to powered rails in order to maximize speed.

## Future

There are plans to expand the railway system beyond the original map.
Violenttank010

Violenttank010 was one of the earliest players to join The Old World when it was reopened as a realm in 2019 and one of the most active players from that time. Rather than building a house, he chose to claim, Deemushunter's House, an incomplete build that was started in 2016. This would eventually become Mama's Compound.

He was also instrumental in the development of Tank Town, an abandoned community build project that was repurposed as the Shopping District in 2021.

He is no longer a member of the realm.

 Tank Town | X: 119, Y:71, Z: -219
Ponderosa Ranch

Ponderosa Ranch is a griefed ranch build located near The Aquarius on a formerly undisclosed island in The Old World.

## History

After the bulk of the work was completed on The Villager Trading Depot, KASS474 and Madd Trucker49 set out to build a house of their own.

They eventually came across an island located above a coral reef where they built a house for themselves and set up several farms to acquire resources. They chose to name it Ponderosa Ranch.

Due to issues with griefers on previous realms, they requested that the coordinates remain undisclosed.

### Griefing

Despite the coordinates being undisclosed, the base was inevitably griefed by an unknown player. However, there are theories that KASS474 and Madd Trucker49 may have griefed the build themselves in order to conceal their use of a duplication exploit before leaving the realm permanently.

The coordinates are now available for anyone interested in visiting the ruins of the build.
RescueLynn81

RescueLynn81, most commonly called Lynn or RL, is a player who joined in shortly after the start of The Island in November of 2020. She also became a founding member of The Committee when it was established. The name Rescue is a call out to her favorite Avenger, Pepper Pots in her Mach iron suit. Rather than building in The Dome when it opened, she chose to build a replica of her actual house in the original map *(now known as The Capital)*. Her "Red" Brick House sets on an island just behind The Prison. In true Shawshank style, she tunneled from the prison to her beach and came out "clean on the other side." This has been her primary base ever since.
Sandy Domani

Sandy Domani is the second underwater base in The Old World and was originally called Feeshy's Sand Castle.

## History

The design is actually a three-part build which consists of a sand castle, underwater area, and above water farm.

Putenda21 designed the sand castle portion first and added the other two sections later on.

The underwater section of the build is similar in design to Donato's Underwater Lair, but a more updated version.

It is very similar to another base she has at Ye Olde Settlement.
The Archipelago

Following several unsuccessful attempts to revive The Aquarius, WhiteLikePaste began looking for a new community concept. Recalling The Island's popularity, he decided on a central island surrounded by player-created smaller islands. Concerned that not everyone would be interested in designing islands from scratch, he approached Willowtree90 in September 2023. Willow used structure blocks to incorporate pre-generated chunks from various biomes and placed them throughout the map for players to claim. After a brief hiatus, The Archipelago was launched as a realm in January 2024.

Hide and Shriek

The Old World Open 2022 was the 2nd Annual Ender Golf Championship for The Old World.

## Event

This was the first Ender Golf event to be held following extensive improvements to the Golf Course. These changes included carpeting throughout the course and the introduction of bleachers for spectators. The most significant change in terms of gameplay was the introduction of the one muligan rule. This change allowed Oldies to correct a single play throughout the game in the event of lag disrupting gameplay or a bad throw on any hole.

This is first event to be won by RescueLynn81. She became the second person to win a yellow jacket after Peculier32 the previous year.
Lighthouse

The Lighthouse on Settler's Isle was an idea that came about when WhiteLikePaste decided he wanted to experiment with redstone.

## History

Not too long after the introduction of creative mode, WhiteLikePaste wanted to build something that would allow him to learn more about redstone. He stumbled across a video tutorial[1] online for how to build a revolving lighthouse and decided that this would be the perfect project to start with.

The design was simple enough and the Lighthouse functioned exactly as it should have.

However, various world conversions and updates left it non-functional for several years until it was fixed by dragonninja1324 in 2019.

By 2020, the Lighthouse had broken again.
The Light Tower

Situated along the north banks of New Canaan, The Light Tower is modeled after The California Lighthouse in Aruba. In naming the Tower, Art3misery drew inspiration from Steven King's legendary Dark Tower series, from which New Canaan also gets its name. As one of the few fully functioning nighttime lighthouses in The Old World, all Oldies are encouraged to come see the spectacle of The Light Tower after sunset.
Skyscraper 2

Skyscraper 2 was an un-officially named skyscraper that was meant to replace The Ciole Building, which was never completed.

## History

After a few years of waiting for EliteXxX to complete The Ciole Building, the project was handed off to another builder.

This new builder decided that they'd rather go with their own design and demolished The Ciole Building entirely.

The new design was more of a modern style. However, halfway through the project, the new builder left The Old World and never returned.

   When The Old World was reopened as a realm in 2019, Skyscraper 2 was demolished by dragonninja1324 and Jollycapthoke to make way for another project that would better serve the community.

Ship Platform

The Ship Platform is the mysterious base of a ship that sits in the water near The Prison.

## History

The origin of the Ship Platform is unknown, but it was first spotted in 2016 when WhiteLikePaste allowed newcomers into The Old World for the first time in roughly two years.

## Future

It's possible that the Ship Platform may be demolished if nobody decides to claim it.
PrecededMold155

Precededmold155 is a player who joined in November of 2022.

## Bio

PreceededMold155 is a player who is seriously dedicated to building and survival. With his main goal said to be building "Moldinovia"(A separate section to be dedicated to Moldinovia). And his secondary goal to become the richest member of the server.

## Moldinovia

Moldinovia is an Original Idea by current oldie PreceededMold155, which is to build a massive community for the old world through it's charter system. Though moldinovia has had prior history as an idea of its own, Moldinovia is currently an Idea that involves the server's charter system. (Btw, In addition I am looking for help building Moldinovia starting December 1st 2022)

Moldinovia is expected to become chartered on the old world by February, 2023 but this is neither confirmed or denied and is just an estimate.
Willow Classic V

## Chronology

### Next

Panda's Spleef Spectacular: Round 3

The Willow Classic V is a PVP tournament held on May 29th, 2022. It was the first event to be held entirely underwater.

## History

The event itself was an anniversary of sorts as it took place almost a year to the date after the 1st Willow Classic.

POS princess91, who had won both the Willow Classic III and IV was unable to attend due to outside obligations. Initially she attempted to have the date of the event switched as she felt that the reigning champion should be in attendance. However, this was disputed since she had never actually defeated YamYam914, who was the winner of the the Willow Classic I & II.

Prior to the event, the two would face eachother in a one on one PVP match at The Arena to determine the true Willow Classic champion. YamYam would easily defeat Princess.

## Event

JustCaIIMeBMX would defeat ChozoLegacy1129 in the final round to become Willow Classic Champion.

## Aftermath

Following the completition of the event, Willow would begin working on the concept for Hide and Shriek and The Old World take it's longest break from a Willow Classic since its inception.
YamYam914

YamYam914 is a certified savage who joined The Old World during The Island. He was invited by Mama071416. Initially he shared a house with Mama071416 on the western side of The Island, but he eventually moved into WhiteLikePaste's old Island house when it became available. He participated in and won the Willow Classic I and the Willow Classic II. After defeating POS princess91 in a 1 on 1 PVP match, he was declared the true Certified Savage.
Tree Top Community

The Tree Top Community was the original group of player's first attempt to build outside of the immediate spawn area.

## History

Following the failure of The Great Nether Expedition, several players led by Bagera King decided to relocate south of the immediate spawn area.

Instead of building houses on the ground, they chose to head up into the trees.

Eventually, they created a large interwoven structure that became a little community onto itself.

### Kabir Island, Home of Chris' Flying Castle

Kabir Island is an extension to the Tree Top Community built by LtRaziel8510. It can be reached by following a long bridge that extends from the Tree Top Community. Atop Kabir Island sits Chris' Flying Castle. The build is a castle design that includes a lookout perch and a tree on top.

## Legacy

The Tree Top Community was the first community build in The Old World that resulted in players actually living and working together to achieve common goals.

Its creation inevitably led to the development of the Underwater Railway System.
ZuluRanger17

ZuluRanger17 is a player who apparently joined during The Jungle.

ZuluRanger17 the XP Master. (reference photo below)

After being slayed by WhitelikePaste for absolutely no reason at all, Zulu set out on a mission to get his levels back and exceeded his goals, stating that he was once again the XP Master. (reference photo below)

Zulu became the groundskeeper of the Shopping District on May 9th, 2022, and served for 387 days, resigning his role on May 31st, 2023. During his time as groundskeeper, he spearheaded a project that was known as the SD Revamp in September of 2022. After this change, he took lead in another project that remains known only to a few. It was not finished or announced by time his retirement.

One of Zulu's most notable things about his work in The Old World is.... wait, who is he again? Nevermind.

Zulu is currently working on roughly 7 projects, and just like a certain owner of the server, there is no clear time on when any of them will be finished.

On July 26th, 2023, after requesting his wiki to be updated, he was forced into the role of being a Historian. He used this as a sign and took to editing his wiki himself. Yes, I wrote this. Don't judge me. Notably, he edited all the mistakes that POS Princess91 left behind on his wiki, such as no punctuation and capitalization errors.
Ye Olde Spirits & Tonics

Ye Olde Spirits & Tonics was a planned potion shop located in the Shopping District. It was owned by EliteXxX and recycled from an existing build.

In the unlikely event that the shop ever opens, inventory will be produced and transported from Donato's Overwater Lair. The shop is one of many incomplete/barely started projects owned by EliteXxX that, unfortunately, can be found all throughout The Old World.

## Controversy

The name used for the shop is a direct reference to a naming convention used by EliteXxX for his personal worlds. However, that naming convention is simply a different take on "The Old World" and further supports the accusations of idea theft initially raised by Putenda21 in 2019.
Spawn

Spawn is revolving location depending on when a player joins the realm for the first time.

## Default Spawn

The default spawn is a beach area located on Settler's Isle near (0,0). Prior to the world merge, which resulted in spawn being moved for the first time, it was the place where all newcomers to The Old World began their journey.

It was formerly home to The Spawn Building. However, the building was demolished because it was not aesthetically pleasing.

WhiteLikePaste is currently in the process of transforming Settler's Isle into an area that will be more welcoming and informative for new players. When the project is completed, the primary spawn will be adjusted again (unless a special event is ongoing).

## The Island

After the world merge, the location of spawn was adjusted to accommodate realm members who joined during The Island event. It is the current location of spawn and the exact coordinates are X: 1168, Y: 63, Z: 1390. This is a temporary location that will be adjusted in the future.
Weathered Outpost

Weathered Outpost *(formerly Weathered Chateau)* is Jollycapthoke's starter base. It is located on an unamed peninsula parallel to Old North Road.

## History

The Weathered Outpost consists of several buildings that contain wool, leather, cooked beef, and cooked chicken farms.

A bridge leading to the final medieval mountain town has also appeared to the site.

Jollycapthoke continues to add to the build while working on various other projects around The Old World.
UnworthyChicken

**UnworthyChicken** is a player who joined the realm shortly before The Dome event. UnworthyChicken, instead of joining the Dome, decided to build a base 7000 blocks away from everyone. UnworthyChicken (or Chicken for short) is best known for his detailed build style. Chicken has shops in the Shopping Area, The Rusty Lantern, Golem Guts, and The Wool Shop. The Rusty Lantern is a shop containing all light sources. Golem Guts selling Iron and Wool Shop selling Well Wool. UnworthyChicken is obsessed with Shulkers and consistently buys them out at the Shopping District, leaving them all over the ground in his area. He was invited by POS Princess91.

***Chest Room***

The Chest room was established in the late stages of Chickens Minecraft life on The Old World. Chicken mimicked a chest room he had created on his very first Minecraft world many years ago. That chest room remained his favorite and he has recreated it 2X's now.

***Note***: This is private property. If you would like to look at the space please reach out for a full Tour. Tours run every Tuesday night at 8pm. EST.

**Chicken's Statue**

The Chicken Statue was built to honor UnworthyChicken's everywhere, marking his base and letting anyone in the area know who was boss.

**Craziness**

One day Chicken opened a light shop, after opening the light shop, He realized he needed bonemeal for the nether trees to get the shroom lights, all the sudden something clicked. Chicken decided he needed to build the biggest Cactus Farm I have ever seen in order to fulfill his needs to obtain enough bonemeal for production. This was the Result. Its big and getting BIGGER.
TARDIS

The Doctor's TARDIS

Built by RescueLynn81 when she wanted to add a reference to her favorite television series as a hidden easter egg for realm members to happen upon. There is a birch tree behind the build with a trapdoor which leads into the TARDIS. Safety and solitude can be found within for weary travelers. Allons-y!
The Fortress of Pasteitude

The Fortress of Pasteitude is an abandoned creative mode project that was modeled after The Fortress of Solitude and The Batcave. It is located under Keith's House.

## History

In 2016, while messing around with creative mode a lot, WhiteLikePaste came up with the idea of having a hidden superhero-style base somewhere in The Old World.

He decided to place the location of the base under Keith's House in a way that was similar to how Wayne Manor hid the location of The Batcave.

The plan was to eventually make a secret door that would lead to the underground base. However, WhiteLikePaste was unhappy with how the project was turning out and abandoned it.
Willow's Little Shop

Willow's Little Shop was the first shop owned and operated by willowtree90 in The Old World. It was located on the north side of The Island.

## History

The shop offered various enchanted books, as well as a few weapons and tools. It was ultimately torn down and replaced by willow's other shops Willow's Wacky and Wonderful Dome Shop, Willow Books, and The Nexus.

Tower Island

Tower Island is the man-made island that The Tower sits upon.

## History

Construction of Tower Island began almost immediately after the creation of The Old World.

WhiteLikePaste's plan was to build a lookout tower in the center of the map in order to oversee future construction.

However, the chosen location did not seem sufficient for what he had planned.

While WhiteLikePaste worked on The Tower itself, Bagera King designed the platform the Tower would stand upon. This included the basement area which would eventually become a transit hub with connections to both the Underground Tunnel System and the The Laggy Locomotive.

Tower Island is accessible directly from Settler's Isle.
The Mansion

The Mansion is a build by EliteXxX. It is currently his only base in The Old World that doesn't involve him living in a tree, underwater, or in a cave.

## History

Initially built in a separate Minecraft world, it was added to The Old World along with Ye Olde Settlement using MCC ToolChest in November 2020.

Commonly referred to as "The Mansion" by WhiteLikePaste, it was EliteXxX's attempt to challenge himself and build something on a grand scale. The degree to how grand the scale actually was is highly debated.

Due to his incredibly slow build-style, the exterior walls took many hours to complete despite them consisting of some of the most basic materials in Minecraft.

By todays standards, "The Mansion" is the size of an average or even small Minecraft house. Like many builds by EliteXxX that he claims he will complete someday, it is in a perpetual state of limbo and will most likely never be finished.
The Nether

The Nether is another dimension in The Old World.

## History

The Nether is a location that can only be accessed through a Nether Portal. There are several dedicated Nether Portals throughout The Old World.

The Great Nether Expedition was the first time any of the players in The Old World went into The Nether from the Overworld. The expedition was a colossal failure and many of the players were wiped out instantly.

Later on, The Nether was explored on numerous occasions in order to collect glowstone to construct the Underwater Railway System.

## Controversy & Reset

One of the biggest issues with The Nether was the overabundance of portals resulting from years of unnecessary portal creation. This led players to experience issues linking their Overworld portals to portals in The Nether. After the release of the Nether Update, WhiteLikePaste saw an opportunity to fix the issues with The Nether once and for all.

However, having put several hours into constructing the Nether Hub by that point, he didn't want to lose all of that progress. His solution was to delete all of the chunks surrounding the Nether Hub using MCC ToolChest. Therefore, the area directly surrounding the Nether Hub portal exists in old chunks while the surrounding is brand new chunks from after the 1.16 update.

## Nether Highway

The Nether Highway is a proposed method of fast travel that will allow players to quickly get from one area of the Overworld to another via Nether Portals. Although several tunnels have been created in The Nether, there is still no officially established Nether Highway. The portal located in The Exchange is designated as the primary Nether Portal for The Old World. It leads to the Nether Hub and will be considered the starting point for the Nether Highway.
Willow's Odds & Ends & Boutique

Willow's Odds & Ends & Boutique is a shop located in the Shopping District that mainly sells armor and armor trims. The build itself was formerly a book store until that inventory was relocated to her shop on The Island. The inventory from a previous incarnation of this shop was moved to this one and that build was sold to Adar195 at an auction. It is located in the same building as Just The Tip.
The Laggy Locomotive

The Laggy Locomotive *(originally known as The Underground Railroad)* is a creation of Peculier32 and was designed for safe, afk travel between The Island and the The Capital. At 2,300 blocks long, it is currently the longest railway system in The Old World.

### History

After the world merge brought The Island into The Old World, Peculier32 wanted to implement a safe method of overworld, afk travel between the two areas. Initially he wanted to place a station beneath the Bagera King Monument, but WhiteLikePaste requested that it be built on Settler's Isle due to it being the center of the entire realm.

After being jokingly being referred to as The Laggy Locomotive by Peculier32 due to frequent realm lag at the time, the name caught on and was made the official name for the railroad.

Each station features an automatic minecart dispenser, making it ideal for players who need to get from one place to the other, but need to step away from the realm for a few minutes.

### Future & Expansions

Peculier32 has given permission for realm members to expand the railroad to incorporate future communities as they are established.
Putenda21

Putenda21 is an early player in The Old World who participated in The Great Nether Expedition. Her original base *(also known as Feeshy’s Sand Castle)* is located near The Tower. She officially renamed the base Sandy Domani when she expanded it to include an underwater section and above water farm. In 2019, there was some debate over her involvement in the construction of Donato’s Underwater Lair. Her claim is that many of the concepts and ideas utilized by EliteXxX were her intellectual property. However, EliteXxX aggressively denied these claims and they remain unproven. After EliteXxX left the borders of the original map to establish Donato's Overwater Lair, she built a house in the mountain next to him which she calls Flarp House.

Snowman's Leaf Spleef

Snowman's Leaf Spleef is a spleef-centric event. It is the second variation of spleef to be introduced to The Old World behind Panda's Spleef Spectacular and the first event to take place at The Aquarius.

## History

Spleef had gained popularity in The Old World following Panda Spleef Spectacular Round 1 and 2. The idea of a Leaf Spleef variation was initially brought up by UnworthyChicken in September, 2021 and the project was picked up by Peculier32 who chose to place it at The Aquarius as a way of drawing more attention to it.

Given the specific requirements for the event, an arena-style build would be needed. Preparations for the project required the draining of a large area that would come to be known as the Fish Bowl.

Planning for the event was put on pause when The Old World exceeded the 4 GB download limit for realms and needed to be moved to a server. The Fish Bowl itself would be completed in November, 2021 during the server testing phase and the leaf spleef area itself was finished in December, 2021.

### Name Origin

The name of the event was suggested by RescueLynn81 and is a reference to Peculier32's history as "The Snowman." Given the use of snowballs in the event, it seemed like the most fitting name.

## Structure

Two combatants begin a match at opposite doors. Once the bell is rung to begin a match, they run through the doors and begin throwing snowballs around their opponents feet in an effort to make them fall to their death.

### Rules

* 1) No intentionally trying to hit your opponent with snowballs.
* 2) Use only the snowballs provided.
* 3) Have fun!
Teliasaurus Rex's House

Teliasaurus Rex's House consists of a semi-underground section and a castle structure.

## History

In the early days of The Old World, Bagera King invited several of his friends to join him in building on the map.

One of those friends, Teliasaurus Rex, decided to build a house in the then unexplored west area of the original map.

Given the underwhelming amount of resources available for building in the early days of Minecraft on the Xbox 360, Teliasaurus Rex chose to build using materials that were largely unused by the typical builder.
The Cemetery

The Cemetery is a build located in The Capital next to The Arena.

## History

The idea for The Cemetery was presented by UptonOgood1 after an inactive realm member who had previously occupied the location of VOIDSTALKER TOWER, logged into the realm and griefed it on Christmas Day, 2020.

The concept behind The Cemetery is that it is the final resting place for the most egregious offenders in terms of breaking the realms rules.

The need for The Cemetery was further supported shortly after the start of The Dome when several new members were involved in a dispute that led to the original The Exchange being burnt down (although it was restored shortly after). This event also led to a tighter application process for entry into the realm in general.
SMSsilencer1291

SMSsilencer1291 was a player who joined shortly after the start of The Island in November of 2020. In their brief time as a member, SMSsilencer1291 built two known houses on The Island, one an acacia house on the water, is now owned by UptonOgood1. The other has since been demolished.

The Tower

The Tower is the first thing ever built in The Old World.

## History

The idea behind The Tower is that WhiteLikePaste wanted to build a base where he could oversee construction throughout the world. This was before he understood the concept of render distance. It was built at a time when the map size was only 864x864.

It was decided that the ideal location for The Tower would be the center of the map. WhiteLikePaste began construction by stacking dirt all the way to max height (the dirt blocks remain the core of the tower to this day.)

Bagera King worked on what would later be named Tower Island while supplying WhiteLikePaste with resources obtained from the Arellano Mine.

The Tower was built in a single night over the course of a eleven-hour play session. At the time, WhiteLikePaste was unaware that crouching would prevent you from falling from high places, so he fell to his death several times while constructing the four levels.

In 2021, WhiteLikePaste returned to The Tower for a build tour. This video was posted to The Old World YouTube Channel under the title "The First Build."

 4 - Garden

## Tower Basement

The basement was originally designed by Bagera King and is technically part of Tower Island. It serves as the central hub for two methods of fast travel in The Old World *(see Underwater Railway System, Underground Tunnel System.)*

It was the original home of the first Nether Portal ever created (later relocated to the Pit of Despair) and was the meeting spot for The Great Nether Expedition.

## Legacy

The Tower is a true representation of the early days of Minecraft and has not been modified since it was initially built. Things that make it nostalgic:

* The core of the building is made of dirt.
* The building itself is almost entirely made out of cobblestone.
* The height limit on each of the levels is only 2 blocks.
* The top of The Tower caps out at 128 blocks because that was the limit in 2012.
TheNikLNips

TheNikLNips, (Nik for short) Is an oldie that found out of The Old World through a Facebook comment by WhiteLikePaste in a Minecraft For Adults group and decided it was just the place for them on May 18, 2023. Upon joining The Old World they spent the first two weeks mining in the public mining area. Not having a home quite yet in the second week being on the server Nik originally was going to make Kyu Sekai their home but due to  different times of playing Sadly they decided to travel out on their own, Nik spends their time in The Aquarius mining and sorting the comunity building storage area wanting to make it the easier for the next mayor to find things.

With the update of 1.20 Nik journied out in the world with their friend InfamousSol(that they invited into the world.) On this journey they stumbled upon a Cherry Biome and decided to reside there. In June of 2023, building of their own future ccomminty started. Together InfamousSol and Nik started working on Blossom Hollow, a Fae Inspired town. In this time InfamousSol and Nik became close to TumsTums8728 who helped them connect their nether portal to the main hubs highway and also helped Nik visit their first Ancient City located under Blossom Hollow.
TNT Princesses House

TNT Princesses House *(formerly FIREYPRINCESS01's House)* was the main base of TNT Princess. It is located near The Oasis and the Magma Block Tower and can be seen when traveling along Old North Road.

## History

When TNT Princess joined The Old World, she built this ranch-style house in a location that was somewhat remote at the time.

It was abandoned when TNT Princess left The Old World.
Princess's First Old World Build

POS princess91's first build on The Old World. This build is located at Princess's base 7000 blocks away.

## History

POS Princess's very first build in the old world, this build was originally made out of brick stone, when Deepslate was released, she converted it over to tilled Deepslate and the form you see today. this is princess's primary storage at the moment. this houses all of her trophy's as well. you can see the back wall is now full.
