== Notable Deaths ==

=== Ch1ll_G0AT — Struck by Fate, Felled by a Spider (6:56 AM) ===

In a run lasting all of two minutes and fifty-four seconds, [[Player:Ch1ll_G0AT|Ch1ll_G0AT]] managed to earn the '''[Surge Protector]''' advancement before a spider cut the session short. Whatever Ch1ll_G0AT survived to earn that particular achievement, a spider was evidently unimpressed. Fastest death of the day, second only in absurdity to the advancement that preceded it.

=== ItItAdam23 — Thirty-Four Down, One to Go (9:51 AM) ===

[[Player:ItItAdam23|ItItAdam23]] assembled one of the stronger single-session records of the day — '''17 advancements''' across roughly an hour and eleven minutes of play. The progression read like a textbook run: '''[Stone Age]''' into iron into '''[Diamonds!]''' at 9:10 AM, then onward to trial chambers where '''[Minecraft: Trial(s) Edition]''', '''[Under Lock and Key]''', '''[Take Aim]''', '''[Wax Off]''', and '''[Lighten Up]''' followed in quick succession. Eight diamonds mined. A hundred and four mob kills, including thirty skeletons and thirty-four spiders.

ItItAdam23 had one question before things went quiet:

{{quote|how do people usually get into teams|ItItAdam23}}

Thirty-five minutes after JimmyyJohn's optimistic send-off, the thirty-fifth spider answered it. After hunting down three dozen of its kind, ItItAdam23 was killed by the one that hunted back. The ban was logged at 9:51 AM.

=== muntiiATlinux — Where Is the Hardcore? (7:38 PM) ===

[[Player:muntiiATlinux|muntiiATlinux]] arrived in the evening with a pointed question:

{{quote|where is the hardcore?|muntiiATlinux}}

One hour and forty-five minutes and '''14 advancements''' later, an enderman provided a thorough answer. muntiiATlinux made it to the Nether, collecting '''[Hot Tourist Destinations]''', '''[Ice Bucket Challenge]''', and '''[We Need to Go Deeper]''' alongside a full iron kit, a bow, and ninety-four mob kills along the way. '''[Take Aim]''' dropped at 7:23 PM — fifteen minutes before the fatal encounter with an enderman they had apparently been provoking all run. Their eleven previous enderman kills suggested confidence in the matchup. The twelfth disagreed.

The server's verdict was swift:

=== MildlyMoistMud — Please Internet Be Nice (10:11 PM) ===

[[Player:MildlyMoistMud|MildlyMoistMud]] fought their connection before a single mob appeared on screen.

Two quick disconnects in under two minutes, then a thirty-minute gap before the third attempt held. When it did, the hope was palpable:

Moments later:

{{quote|oml im here|MildlyMoistMud}}

They were. For seven minutes and forty-two seconds. In that window they killed ten mobs — seven chickens, two cows, one pig — earned five advancements including '''[Stone Age]''' and '''[Getting an Upgrade]''', and were then shot by a skeleton with a bow. The server's eulogy:

{{quote|nooooooooooooooooooooooooo|Lkgye}}

Eight minutes and fifty-four seconds of actual play across three attempts. The internet was not, in the end, nice.

=== WalkZDog — Into the Void (6:25 PM) ===

{{main|Player:WalkZDog}}

[[Player:WalkZDog|WalkZDog]] had built something. '''~12 hrs 45 min'''. '''30 advancements'''. Four hundred sixty-eight mob kills, two hundred sixty of them endermen. '''[Cover Me in Debris]'''. '''[Hero of the Village]'''. '''[Sky's the Limit]'''. '''[The End]'''. '''[Postmortem]'''. The kind of résumé that takes most players multiple lifetimes — two villager trades, nearly five and a half thousand blocks mined, and a gear loadout substantial enough that JimmyyJohn was already mentally tallying the loss.

At 6:25 PM, WalkZDog logged in for the final time. The session lasted five seconds.

{{quote|yo our boy just fell out of the world|Lkgye}}

The community response was immediate and practically-minded. JimmyyJohn inquired about teleportation options. Lkgye offered to pay, in-game. The debate over what three elytras and a full kit were worth occupied several minutes of chat. The consensus — articulated repeatedly, in various ways — was that none of it mattered at this depth. There was no rescue coming.

{{quote|my bestest of all friend|JimmyyJohn}}

The ban was logged at 6:25 PM. What WalkZDog built over nearly thirteen hours stays in the record. What they carried into the void stays there.
