ArK Gaming

On August the 9th 2013 Kraytus Ark , Epic Ark (who back then was known as EpicGod1) and Zoner uploaded a video on Minecraft, there was no voice, just game play on a public server, but it was with this that the first ArK Gaming tradition of sticking a block of Lapis Lazuli in the corner of a house began. It is also worth mentioning that back in this time "Ark Gaming" was simply an idea, and wouldn't come into affect until many months later.

Many months later, in approximately October 2014 Kraytus Ark made his first voiced video with Resin\_Plant (Resin Ark ) on Minecraft playing VampireZ on the Hypixel server, a video that Kraytus still thinks was one of his best, it was also in this month that Resin first started making videos.

27th of October, Ark Gaming was formed, with Kraytus, Resin, Epic and Zoner being the main members and OralandXGaming (Quiggerz) being a honorary member. Their first real series, Skyblock only lasted 3 episodes but to this day is still one of the most fondly remembered series' by Ark Gaming.

It was very late into April 2014 month that Kraytus deleted all his videos, an action he regrets, however he begun making newer, and questionably higher quality videos on April 22nd and onward. However, it wasn't until the 14th of June 2014 they hit their stride with the first appearance of PAYDAY on the channel, supposedly one of Kraytus' best videos of all time.

On the 8th of August 2014, a true celebration of 1 year of ArkGaming (unofficially) Kraytus Ark released KinkyKlub, which is hailed as a true achievement in the ArK Gaming library. PAYDAY 2 wouldn't resurface on the channel until the 24th of July 2015, following this was a rather dull period of inactivity and below-standard uploads, however, towards the end of December Kraytus Ark hit back with a Call of Duty video, gaining some of the highest views the channel had seen. Closely following this was also the return of Minecraft PvP and the 1st appearance of Ariana Cason (Susan\_C Gaming) on the channel.

One month later and Kraytus Ark released a Garry's Mod montage, once again featuring Susan, and also bringing back Oraland.

### The disbanding of Ark Gaming and formation of ArK Gaming

For three months after the Garry's Mod montage, the group had been closed and the channel inactive, until Kraytus released Haunted Memories, the 1st horror game on the channel and also home to the term "Where's the AX!!", after this Kraytus began uploading almost every week and soon began the Room for Two series which featured Kraytus and Resin on Portal 2, on the 24th of July, Susan\_C Gaming and GeorgeBeamish joined the newly formed ArK Gaming and on the same day, PAYDAY 2 returned with, appropriately titled the "Funniest episode ever"

### The hiatus of ArK Gaming

Since February 2016 ArK Gaming have been put on Hiatus, with the only content creator at the current time being George Beamish. Susan\_C Gaming's channel is currently on hiatus with a decision to possibly turn the channel to speed arts. Kraytus Ark's channel is being completely revamped. With all the old videos being privatised the channel has been rebranded to Kraytus & Resin, and is now a shared channel ebtween the two. The channel art has also been changed.
