SMP Season 2

**This was the second season of the Indx SMP which started on the 29th November 2020 at 20:19 GMT. It was hosted on Aternos on version 1.16.4.**

## **Background Info**

Taking into account what had happened in the previous season of the SMP, Indx decided to do things differently. He firstly decided to host it on 1.16.4, to give everyone a chance to explore the new Nether biomes. He also decided to not install admin plugins and plugins that would give an unfair advantage to anybody. However, one flaw that was still not looked into was the Cracked account issue. Players using Cracked Minecraft accounts could still join the server, and considering the fact that the hacker from the previous season used a Cracked account, another hacker could bypass the whitelist and Season 1 would repeat itself again.

This new generation of the server brought new members, server wide projects, and a lot more fun. Some events and gameplay were streamed on Indx's YouTube channel and Arixes' Twitch channel.

To any Season 2 members: This SMP can still be played on as long as you are whitelisted to the server. However, you will have to ask someone who has access to open the server to start it for you because, unlike Season 3, it is not 24/7. Keep inventory has also been enabled on the server.

## **Server Timeline and Events:**

### **The New Beginning**

* Server opens on the 29th November, with Shirrk and Indx being the first members on it.

* Shirrk takes the title of having the first death (died in a ravine near spawn)

* The first bases are built near the spawn, those being Coriander’s, Shirrk’s, Uncool’s and Arixes.

* Indx builds his base 800 blocks out from spawn in a lake. This would turn to be the cause for the biggest project on the server.

* Goaded is given the co-ordinates for Indx’s base and he builds his base somewhere nearby in another lake.

* The first big project commences on the server, that being the Nether Highway. It links the location of Indx and Goaded’s base with the spawn.

* The SMP discord server shuts down on the 7th December and the SMP related channels are moved to Indx’s main server under a private category.

* Dazzely joins the SMP

* OliC195, Clascific and GhosttyFy join the server on an unknown date and all three move in with Indx. They create bases under his house which leads to some saying that Indx is hoarding kids in his basement.

* Oldgigios logs out of the SMP for the last time in early December.

* Shirrk and Coriander move out of the spawn to live near Goaded’s base.

* Dazzely builds his base near the spawn.

* An unidentified person steals items from peoples chests, which causes minor conflict in the server.

* The Nether Highway is extended to the Mushroom Islands and to the Stronghold, both of which were found by Indx.
* Goaded becomes tired of his base being griefed and stolen from. He decides to build a secret base into a mountain, which is never found.

* Indx decides to move out too. Shirrk, Coriander and Arixes also move out to an undisclosed place.

### **The Lonely Era**

* A community center is built to try and make a place for people to meet up during the lonely era.

* The server underwent some data loss on the 12th December and some players inventories were wiped. Indx later uses op to give these players their items back.

* Coriander logs out of the SMP for the last time and is replaced by Shmitsaga.

* The Christmas Tree building project is streamed live on Indx’s YouTube channel on the 20th December. Cole, Uncool, Clascific, Arixes, Ghost, OliC195, BigBD, Dazzely, Goaded, and Hithere all helped with the Christmas Tree Build. The server TPS went to the worst amount but server player count is broken (11 members online at once). It took 2 hours to complete.

* Amxlia (me!) and Kaorixy joins the server

* An uninvited player joins the server on the 23rd December and uses hacks to kill users on the server. The server is closed down temporarily because of these events

* During this, Uncool gets killed by the hacker losing all of his items. These include:
	+ Maxed Armour - Maxed enchantments and Netherite.
	+ *drowS etirehteN* - A Netherite sword with maxed enchants.
	+ Netherite Pickaxe - Efficiency 5, Fortune 3, Mending and Unbreaking

* Soon after when the server reopened, Indx gives Uncool all of his stuff back. However, Indx doesn't realise that Uncool did not lose his Pigstep disc. which leads to Uncool having 2 Pigstep disks in his possession.

* Clascific brings back Captoonion and creates a secret base thousands of blocks away from spawn. The new member of Captoonion are Clascific, Kaorixy and Arixes.

* Indx goes to creative mode and gives Clascific and Arixes 1 bedrock each.

* Dazzely causes major conflict of which results to Captoonion going to war with him. Captoonion knew they were at a disadvantage since Arixes had known he had maxed armor and villagers with overpowered enchantments. Dazzely brewed potions of strength and speed and effortlessly wipes out their army. Due to this loss, Arixes decides to get 30 blocks of TNT and grief his house. Dazzely loses all of his villagers and the war is officially over.

### **The Downfall**

* Indx decides to host an event where some players can go to the End Dimension and get elytras, dragon egg, dragon head ect. These players include: Cole, Indx, Shirrk, Clascific and Arixes.

* Unfortunately, the End portal doesn't work so Indx has to go to gamemode creative to make another one. During the ender dragon
 fight, Indx dies and subsequently has the end portal frame in his inventory which Arixes picked up. He puts this inside of his ender chest for later.

* Clascific gets the achievement "Free the End" opening a portal to the overworld and a Remote Getaway.

* Only a few players have gotten an elytra: Arixes, Shirrk, Clascific, Goaded and Indx

* Later, Arixes and Shirrk find out that Clascific can duplicate blocks. They give him a bedrock and an end portal frame and he starts duplicating them. A few days later and he has 7 stacks of bedrock (giving 1 stack to Arixes) and with the end portal frames he makes an end portal at his base.
* The Nether Highway is griefed slightly

* Indx decides to start grinding for achievements whilst Arixes and Shirrk try to get "A Furious Cocktail". They soon find out that if they work together then they can get the achievement much faster. Arixes makes a turtle farm but due to the TPS (Ticks per Second) they take approximately 163 minecraft days to hatch.
* Indx accidentally gets the Furious Cocktail achievement when making sure that he had the right potions.
* The SMP 'dies' (loses player activity) for a couple of weeks.
* The server starts back up during another period of time with a hacker.
* The new hacker joins the server and Arixes' and Uncool's accounts start getting hacked into by outside sources.
* A prison made out of Bedrock is built by Indx to prevent the hackers from doing any damage to the server.
* Hithere rejoins the server after some inactivity and gains OP from Indx
* The SMP is slowly abandoned soon after this pending the release of Season 3. Season 2 lasted around 2 months before the new Season was released.

* The reason why the server started to downfall was because Indx had used OP again and the items from the End had made players too powerful.
