History

The server began when Gorzhak recovered his hacked Mojang account from a white trash Russian who had purchased a month of Realms. He off handily pitched the idea to start doing a co-op play with Taylor Swift. The project quickly gained traction with other Bimmers and Gorzhaks Norwegian friends.

Locations

JackTown

View from the XP Farm over JackTown.

Originally a small Savannah biome village, JackTown was heavily remodeled as a starter/spawn town for the server. Jack, obviously, put in most of the effort developing the town and its walls. Additionally, the nether portal used to arrive in the village, which had appeared in a tree, was made more accessible by the construction of a surrounding ziggurat, later renamed The Biggurat. In the base of the Biggurat, a full fledged spawn area was prepared with all the features and items needed for players starting out. The farm was eventually phased out in favor of smaller versions that could fit in anyones base.

To the south of the town, Taylor built a no mob XP farm, utilizing cactus and bamboo. The original design didnt allow for the production of enough bamboo, so it was eventually quadrupled in size. Eventually however, with the discovery of a much more compact and efficient model, the XP Farm was shuttered.

Senntisten

The Temple at Senntisten, the starter base of the server.

A desert village only a few chunks northwest of the spawn, Senntisten was the first area colonized by Gorzhak and Taylor. Named after the desert adjacent temple and city from Runescape lore, the nearby desert temple was used as the duos home base in the early stages of the server and briefly served as a spawn point.

Part of the town was blown up on July 22nd by Cynthia aka Ahmeds_Taubers (Cynthia's account had also been hacked, and the skin had been changed to that of a Middle Eastern man wearing a w:thawb and w:keffiyeh, using a glut of TNT that had been harvested from multiple Desert Temples. (Never forget the 6 gorillion villages oy vey)

The temple became mostly abandoned after the construction of JackTown and many of the bases amenities were relocated there or into the Nether Nexus.

The Nether

Through Gorzhaks extensive autism, the nether was transformed from barren wasteland with little to no value, into a barren wasteland that has highways to the major locations on the map.

The center of all these highways, the Nether Nexus, its attached to a portal in the basement of the Temple at Senntisten, and features an enchanting table, nether wart farm, and minecart tram to JackTown.

Dolphin Vape Cave

The main atrium of The Vape Cave showing the moon pool and spiral staircase.

Gorzhak, being the cave dweller he is, envisioned an underwater cave base that was completely hidden while also being accessible via the sea. He used the Nether highway to make this possible, then tasked Jack with clearing out the cavern to start the process. The base would later be expanded to several floors all connected with a spiral staircase, linking the lower storage levels and mines, with the mid-level atrium and the upper living area.

Taylorsville

Taylorsville and the workshop before the move.

While searching for the jungle to obtain bamboo for the XP Farm Project, Taylor happened across a taiga biome village nested in a small valley between hills. In the side of one of the hills, Taylor built a small way-station base just to drop off materials and rest. The journey would later prove unsuccessful, but the location was good for a more permanent base. Later on, Taylor would develop the station into a full fledged base with a large farm, ranch, and Villager detention facility. However, as the base expanded, it became increasingly difficult to use the space inside the mountain, especially when it came to redstone contraptions such as the Personal XP Farm. Most of the base would be torn down and moved when Taylor moved his main base to New Southland on August 13th.

New Southland

New Southland at night. Visible is farm complex and pool house, as well as mob farm.

After the Woodlands Mansions was cleared by Taylor on August 9th, he decided to move his entire operation there instead of continuing at the taiga workshop. Mostly motivated by a larger space with which to work, the move was made easier by a minecart tram and a convoy of chest minecarts.
