Event:Obituaries March 1

March 1, 2026 claimed 6 players on Xandaris — the quietest day in a week, but no less cruel. Skeletons continued their reign as the server's top killer, taking three more victims. Two of those died 9 seconds apart in completely different locations, both having just typed pleas for a teammate that went unanswered.

The fastest death of the day — 19 seconds — belonged to steve0984, who tried to rejoin five times in 23 seconds before accepting the deathban screen was permanent. The most unusual entry was Tanker5girl, who was playing two accounts simultaneously and lost one to a Creeper underground.

Notable Deaths

EVIL_NEXUS & Hopefullbadger — Nine Seconds Apart (12:28 AM)

Two strangers. Two Skeletons. Nine seconds.

EVIL_NEXUS joined and speedran the early game — earning [Diamonds!] in under 7 minutes, one of the fastest diamond acquisitions on record. But gear wasn't the problem. Teammates were:

"can i team up with someone im lt4 in mace and in sword"— EVIL_NEXUS

1,400 blocks away, Hopefullbadger was making the same plea:

"can i team up with someone"— Hopefullbadger

"pls"— Hopefullbadger

Neither got a response. Neither knew the other existed. At 12:28 AM, EVIL_NEXUS was shot by a Skeleton. Nine seconds later, Hopefullbadger was shot by a different Skeleton on the other side of the map. Both had just earned [Monster Hunter] — both had just proven they could fight. It wasn't enough.

Hopefullbadger had it worse: connection issues kicked them twice in the first three minutes. They spent a third of their time on the server just trying to stay connected.

Tanker5girl — The Dual-Boxer (2:51 AM)

Tanker5girl wasn't alone — they were playing two accounts at once. AltDetector flagged them as sharing an IP with BuddhaMantis, who joined 9 seconds earlier. The two accounts greeted each other in chat:

"hello"— Tanker5girl

"Howdy"— BuddhaMantis

Both accounts progressed in parallel — earning stone tools, killing mobs, exploring caves. Tanker5girl had the longer session at 43 minutes, mining underground at Y:48 when a Creeper ended it. BuddhaMantis survived and logged off two minutes later. One player, two accounts, one casualty.

steve0984 — 19 Seconds (7:07 AM)

steve0984 lasted 19 seconds. Spawned, walked 20 blocks, and was killed by a Spider on the surface. No chat. No advancements. No stone. No anything.

Then came the reconnection attempts — five in 23 seconds:

Attempt	Time After Death	Result
1	+26 sec	Game Over!
2	+35 sec	Game Over!
3	+38 sec	Game Over!
4	+44 sec	Game Over!
5	+49 sec	Game Over!

They never came back after that.

CDRGreen15 — "Hardcore Huh" (10:14 AM)

CDRGreen15 joined and assessed the situation:

"hello?"— CDRGreen15

"hardcore huh"— CDRGreen15

Forty seconds later, they fell from a high place. Eighty-one seconds total on the server. sigges2340 typed "f" seven seconds after the death — one of the fastest tributes in server history. cheesemaster774 and sigges2340 had both said hello. It didn't help.
