Orangebubly (styled OrangeBubly) is a player on Xandaris and a member of vphlIo's team. He holds the server record for most advancements (43 total), reached The End and obtained three Elytras, and orchestrated the social engineering of PluckedHorseHair's coordinates — one of the server's most elaborate betrayals. He previously played on the Legendary Hardcore server, the same server samboyd originated from.
Overview
Orangebubly joined the server as an experienced hardcore player, quickly progressing through the game. He reached The End, found End Cities, and collected multiple Elytras — accumulating over 161 km of elytra flight. His orange-gradient nickname was set by samboyd after repeated failed attempts by Orangebubly himself.
The PluckedHorseHair Operation
Orangebubly's most significant contribution to the server's history was social-engineering PluckedHorseHair's location on behalf of vphlIo. The entire operation is documented in private messages:
vphlIo sent Orangebubly to hunt PluckedHorseHair. Orangebubly messaged PluckedHorseHair directly, offering friendship and gifts:
"can you msg me coords if you dont mind, i am not trying to kill you... i have some stuff i can give you"— Orangebubly to PluckedHorseHair
PluckedHorseHair, cautious but tempted, shared his coordinates. Orangebubly immediately relayed them to vphlIo:
"i got his coords..."— Orangebubly to vphlIo
He continued stringing PluckedHorseHair along, promising Elytras, totems, and a mace. When PluckedHorseHair grew suspicious and said he would log off if he saw anyone else, Orangebubly advised vphlIo:
"he sais if he sees anyone else he will log... you should invis"— Orangebubly to vphlIo
PluckedHorseHair eventually moved to Nether 0, 0 and Orangebubly tracked him there, relaying positions in real-time. When PluckedHorseHair finally logged off, vphlIo camped the location. Orangebubly grew impatient:
"how long are we going to wait... i kind of want to do something else"— Orangebubly
Legendary Hardcore
Orangebubly revealed he came from the same server as samboyd — Legendary Hardcore. When PluckedHorseHair asked about it, Orangebubly used it to build credibility:
"legendary hardcore, sam came from that one but he died thats why he created this server"— Orangebubly
He mentioned building four gunpowder farms on that server and distributing five Elytras to other players. He later expressed burnout:
"i have built so much on legendary i am kind of burnt out of building farms and dont want to do it again on this server"— Orangebubly
Discoveries
While exploring, Orangebubly found GigglyBall's dropped head and looted her ender chest through the DeadEnderChest plugin, finding a heavy core among the contents:
"i found gigglyballs head... he had a heavy core!"— Orangebubly
He also discovered that the village area of vphlIo's old base had been griefed and reported the giant sandstone skyscraper built by Asa_Akiraa.
Map Art & Farms
Despite his earlier burnout from building on Legendary Hardcore, Orangebubly has taken on several creative and infrastructure projects on Xandaris:
- Pixel Art Map — Working on a map art piece of his own head wearing a crown. He offered to make vphlIo one with a moustache.
- Sugarcane Farm — Building a sugarcane farm for paper and rockets.
- Iron Farm — Constructing an iron farm for gear and trading.
- TNT/Carpet Duper Advocacy — Alongside samboyd, advocated for enabling TNT and carpet dupers on the server, arguing they are standard practice on hardcore servers for farm infrastructure.
Advancements
Orangebubly earned more advancements than any other player on the server (43 total), including:
- Eye Spy / The End? / Remote Getaway — End progression
- The City at the End of the Game / Sky's the Limit — End Cities and Elytra
- Hot Tourist Destinations / Subspace Bubble — Nether challenges
- Ice Bucket Challenge / Those Were the Days / A Terrible Fortress
- The Parrots and the Bats — Breed an animal
- A Throwaway Joke — Throw a trident at something
- Into Fire — Obtain a Blaze Rod
- Local Brewery — Brew a potion
He collected multiple Elytras from End Cities and asked vphlIo about a gunpowder farm for rockets. He has since won 7 raids, completed 671 villager trades, and killed over 1,700 slimes — suggesting an active slime farm operation.
The OneStarNoTip Killing
During the killing of OneStarNoTip, Orangebubly was the only player to actively warn the victim. When vphlIo falsely claimed to be the server owner, Orangebubly intervened: "bro dont believe him" and identified samboyd as the real owner. The warning was not enough — OneStarNoTip was killed minutes later. vphlIo later listed Orangebubly among the players he considered "safe."
Wiki Reaction
After discovering his own page on the Xandaris wiki, Orangebubly reacted with amusement and appreciation:
"that is funny that you included my msgs"— Orangebubly
"man you really worked on this wiki... it is epic... love it"— Orangebubly
He also reflected on the PluckedHorseHair operation: "we almost had him" — referring to the near-miss before PluckedHorseHair logged off.
Trivia
- His nickname required multiple attempts — he lacked the SimpleNicks permission and samboyd had to set it manually via
/nick admin set. - Tried running
/seed,/crash_assistant,/plugins,/ban, and/dec PluckedHorseHair— exploring what commands were available. - Asked "who is Anz" — referring to GigglyBall/Ansley's gradient nickname.
- He established a new "very well hidden" base location after vphlIo's village base was griefed.
- He murdered his own dog with a Diamond Sword.
- After seeing his wiki page, he was surprised his messages were included but called the wiki "epic."
