== Notable Deaths ==

=== The WillieLayer_ Trilogy (4:20–5:08 PM) ===

The most extraordinary sequence in server history. One player. Three accounts. Three deaths. Forty-eight minutes.

'''WillieLayer_''' — an alt of [[Player:OneStarNoTip|OneStarNoTip]] (later known as [[Player:JimmyyJohn|JimmyyJohn]]), who'd already died on a previous day — had been exploring deep in the negative coordinates. At 4:20 PM, he found what every hardcore player dreams of: a '''Stronghold'''. The [Eye Spy] advancement popped. He typed:

{{quote|W|WillieLayer_}}

{{quote|Finally|WillieLayer_}}

Fourteen seconds later, a Creeper detonated. WillieLayer_ was dead at Y:13, inside the Stronghold he'd just discovered. On Discord: ''"THAT CREEPER PULLED UP OUT OF NOWHERE"'' and ''"I SPENT ALL THAT FUCKING TIME GETTING TO THE STRONGHOLD JUST TO BE KILLED IMEDIATLY."''

He created '''Meatyman121''' four minutes later — ''"account number 3 lets go."'' Meatyman121 spawned near the world origin and immediately began trekking back toward his old territory, 15,000 blocks away. He found another player's dropped items along the way (''"poor RedCommander fell off a cliff Lol"''), earned five advancements including [Ice Bucket Challenge], and was chatting with [[Player:WEIDO344|WEIDO344]] about a base he'd found 5,000 blocks out. He also declared, with the confidence of a man who'd just been exploded: ''"creepers are wors."''

Twenty-seven minutes later, a Creeper blew him up on a mountainside.

On Discord: ''"HOLY FUCK"'' / ''"AGAIN"'' / ''"like i dont even hear them coming."''

He created '''sciencekitty121''' two minutes after that — ''"acc # 4"'' / ''"i love buying hacked accounts for 1$."'' This time he headed to spawn, met up with [[Player:WEIDO344|WEIDO344]] who donated iron armor, and was making plans. Then a Drowned killed him near the spawn coast, 14 minutes in. His Discord message: ''"i was typing."''

Final Discord message of the night: ''"i ran out of accounts fuck."''

He did, in fact, create a fifth account — '''SoloToby''' (later renamed [[Player:JimmyyJohn|JimmyyJohn]]) — which survived.

=== Slim6y — Live-Narrating His Own Death (12:04 PM) ===

Slim6y joined during a night cycle and immediately knew something was wrong. His second message on the server:

{{quote|guys if you die do you get kicked?|Slim6y}}

He didn't know the answer was permanent deathban. He found out by watching '''ValoareMC''' die seven minutes before him. His reaction:

{{quote|oh no|Slim6y}}

{{quote|im gonna die oh shit|Slim6y}}

What followed was five minutes of Slim6y narrating his own slow death in real time — underground, surrounded by skeletons, one hit from death:

{{quote|i was one shot|Slim6y}}

{{quote|i joined at night too|Slim6y}}

{{quote|so many skeletons|Slim6y}}

His final message, typed while running through caves with no gear, no food, and no hope:

{{quote|i have nogthing|Slim6y}}

A Skeleton shot him four seconds later. Thirteen minutes on the server. Twelve chat messages. Zero chance.

=== Arbiter1935 — Not Today (7:48 AM) ===

Arbiter1935 was doing everything right. In ten minutes he'd earned five advancements — stone tools, iron tools, a monster kill. He was deep in a cave at Y:43, fighting a Skeleton, when he raised his shield and blocked an arrow, earning the '''[Not Today, Thank You]''' advancement.

Eight seconds later, the same Skeleton shot him dead.

=== ValoareMC — Armed Zombie (11:57 AM) ===

ValoareMC's first action on the server was trying <code>/gamemode creative</code>. It didn't work. His first chat message was ''"why aint no one talking."'' He earned '''[Monster Hunter]''' before '''[Stone Age]''' — meaning he punched a hostile mob to death before mining a single block of cobblestone. Three minutes in, a Zombie wielding an '''Iron Sword''' cut him down underground. Armed Zombies are one of the rarer death causes on the server.

=== _cloudddd & hunt333666 — The Speed Deaths (1:23 AM / 5:20 AM) ===

'''_cloudddd''' lasted '''31 seconds'''. Joined, walked 25 blocks, met a Zombie. No words. No advancements. No stone. Just a head on the ground.

'''hunt333666''' lasted '''1 minute 26 seconds'''. Said ''"yo,"'' tried <code>/tpa</code> (doesn't exist on this server), probably looked at an Enderman, and learned why you don't look at Endermen.
