Y'all make me want to say my craptastic short story... D: Spoiler I started out around April 15th (2011) and after exploring and getting lost in the oldoldold spawn, I found my way out to the right behind some large buildings and past the old Courthouse. Land was mostly barren and perfectly flat, so I found a tree and started spreading trees EVERYWHERE until it was a mini forest. I moved towards the river/ocean (oceans at the time were... tiny) and made a log cabin house. It was single floor with a cramped attic, had paintings all over it, and a large, pretty front porch. I hung around there and just watched chat for a few days until Mission came along as my neighbor. I watched him build for the next day or two. After the first few days I wandered out far away from spawn and made a very large, square, 5-7 floor, color-coded floor... birch house.. thing. With lots of glass and snow for walls. As I was working on the building, Andrew cam along and we started talking and becoming friends; he asked me if I wanted help, and he insta-finished what I was working on. I ended up having two floors of reed on top of my house, and was working towards claiming the area my house was on (Resident). I mined while my reeds grew ... I never got Resident, lol. Week or two after I joined and had been playing, Andrew asked me if I wanted to be Moderator. I hadn't really said much in-game, but my stalking of the forums and posting was enough for me to stand out at that time. I said yes, and then my time from then on consisted mostly of changing the night to day, giving people water, harvesting my reeds, and chatting with users Starbolt79, Larsphee, and Michaelwm. After a little while I met LegitCactus69 (think that is spell right D, flamincactus-something, and Heavensfallen. Spoke with Mission some, and got my bro to join (D0rc; started on the account Nyrd I think). When people started going on and on about how cactus was the best money-maker and farming method, I create a large (for that time in age) underground automatic cactus farm near my old cabin house. During the time since I joined up until the map change, I had also hung out with Andrew and Star a fair bit, and we had lots of fun adventures with pizza dancing (can't forget Suki and the others D, dome-finding, chest password guessing games, helicopters, trapping each other, headbanging and discos, and so many other random insane things... Map changed not long after my cactus farm was complete, and our shenanigans continued for a while. I also "abused" flower prices on the new map and Star made Andrew nerf them so I wouldn't get superduper rich before everyone else. D: After the new map my memory is hazy... I think I mostly hung out in chat and did on-and-off mining and reedfarming while working on a town with Star and Heavens. I built a few nice buildings, but not much else. Didn't really make a whole lot of money, but after a while with the help of Star and D0rc (pretty sure it was them o.0) I got enough for Resident. Was still a Moderator (maybe Super by that time, I can't remember), so my Resident didn't show and I was very sad. D: After Resident I just did nothing but chatting and helping people ... and eventually everyone threw their money at me and pressured me into making Mooville. Even the name was pressured; EVERYONE WANTED A COW TOWN and bought plots before the town was even made... lol
this is mine. i spwaned at spawn.... the rest is boring Spoiler i went to find my friend... then went mining to get ranks.. then went pumpkin farming and got ranks and now running a town lol mine is so short
Wow... it seems like just 4 months ago I joined the server. lol Well here is how it all started... I was not only new to the server, but also new to the game, MineCraft. So I walk around, and find a build portal. I walk through. I made a treehouse. Did not know about lwc protection... you know how that turned out. I moved after being griefed. I met Ema1000. We had a house right outside of Nox, even though she already had two plots there. We mined and got money. She got resident. Then one terrible day... we got griefed, badly. There were three griefs. First, the guys come to my house and grief when Im offline. Later, I catch them standing outside the door. Second, they tp to me and try to burn me to death (Im sure jetscat remembers that) and Third, they griefed again, and I left. Later, bought a plot from xxemuxx. He world edits the town away. Lost some diamonds. Then Ema1000 gave me some money and I got res.
Ah I started the server on June 1st and went on vent the same day. I was added to MichaelWM's town Soulwood, which was one of only 4 official towns at the time. I was added to the town by Larsphee, a cool moderator who is not really active anymore but came on in the past few months for a couple days. I worked for two days or so and made 20k for resident, which was the price at the time. Then I just helped people out with their towns and built houses in towns owned by other people. I didn't make a town until the map we are currently on.
Wellllllll It all starts with me joining the server one day, getting lost in bluecoast and rage quitting for a month. Then I re-join and work with a builder buddie and get paid to work on his farm. Then I buy a plot and the rest is history.
Boring story for me. Spoiler I join the server. I go to the wild, build a house, get griefed, join xxEmuxx's town it gets shut down I rage for maybe a month come back and start a new life. I moved from 5-8 towns idontknow and then I never settle. I always move to a different town in a month or so.
I remember my life first went through builder gate portal 1. Then found a house raided it with my friend gap10. Then we got enough money to live in antcubings town so we got 2 plots. Then he kicked us out because we broke the rules lol. Then I met Sitomo he let me get a plot but gap10 left the server so it was just me. I now live in snuggcity still this very moment.
It was a cold night in Ohio, it was about mid November, all the street light went out and ntohing could be seen. I had no clue on what to do, I pondered and paced through my room thinking of all my friend I could be hanging out with but denied all there texts to come over. My sheets did not stop the cold from coming through the window, with every breeze it got colder THEN................... Spoiler I joined ECC and my life went on like everyone of your guys. The End.
I believe it is time for @Andrewkm to give us a riveting tale of how the server started up, its origins its failures and its triumphs... anyone with me?
when i first joinex the server, i.walked around looking at the town berlin owned by welikeike. after dieing many times walking around, i see someone saying new players come to me. his name was _jamescraft and he gave me access to everything he had. he taught me everything i need to know, and i mined until i got resident. from there i got a plot in mintopia where ny mansion lies,40x40. and earned money from farming. i set up a shop in pubmanor (neighbouring mintopia) and also eraned money there (visit plz). i had about 40k when i saw a mayor, xboxmerked selling a town i tped to him and i loved the town it is 200x200 and still developing, with no portal, and i remain developing the toen (minequest) to this day. i have never yet seen or heard from _jamescraft and have long ever seen my past home. tell me id you know anything about _jamescraft's wherabouts
Here is my story! Spoiler So sometime about 7 months ago I decided to give this "Minecraft" thing a try. And truse me, I got addicted withen seconds. After about 1 month of playing singleplayer I grew quite bored, didn't really know what to do at the time. Then my buddy Anja2012 told me of a cool new server. So of coarse, I had to try (the server being ECC) The very first thing I did was go into all the wild gates and look around. I was currently unaware of some things in the wild, and was afraid to touch any of the blocks. I looked around, and went mining a bit. The very first precious ore I found was iron (weird how I remember that) and I placed it all in a chest. I left the server for about 20 minutes and came back to find all my stuff gone. So being frustrated at this, I read the rules for the first time, and learned all the commands soon enough. So I build a crappy little dirt home.After 1 day of being in this house Anja2012 told me that she had made a secret base in the middle of nowhere, where me and about 5 of my friends lived for about 2 weeks. It was awesome, the secret entrance was marked out by a yellow flower, and life was good. I even found myself an enchanting table (which I "borrowed" from some people next door. I felt very bad about taking it, and went to return it only to fall into a death pit.At about 2 weeks we found out that we had been greifed (and really badly). So my friends and I had a big moving party (after leaving some sad notes behind about the greifers) and decided to go lakeside. By then we had about 7 people in our happy party all living under one roof. That's about when my friend Zardgyer joined in also. He had resident about 7 days later (which frustrated me, this was about week 3-4 for me) and I asked him how. He showed me a giant pumpkin farm. This is one line that I will never forget. I started mining the pumpkins with my fist, and Zard called me a quote: Knuckleheadmcspazzatron. So I responded by calling them my fists of Justice. I loaned 6k from him and called him the "Loan Shark". I was the 2nd person in our party to get resident (right next to zard), and Glooble was the one that processed my residency. And that is the story of how I started out in Ecc ^.^
