1st SMP

History

Early Server

On November 13th, 2020, several plug-ins were added to the server, such as One Player Sleep. 

On November 20th, the server collectively fights the Ender Dragon. BBLB_YT recorded and uploaded a YouTube video of the event.

Due to performance issues using Minehut, players such as Pickyman and GodspeedAssassin stated they would "quit" the SMP. Particularly Godspeed after he said, "I'm getting good FPS everywhere else, but I join the server and I get zero FPS." He added, "Bro I'm literally frozen rn." The situation ultimately culminated, "Ok now I fucking drowned and its not respawning me...my sh*t's gonna despawn because of this sh*tty ass piece of sh*t minecraft server hosting piece of sh*t can't run one frame." In response, BBLB_YT unsubscribed from the server plan and transferred to a new provider, Aternos. (December 1st, 2020)

On December 1st, L1keW0ah announced that his account would be inaccessible in "seven months" as it couldn't be migrated to a Microsoft account. He renamed his Minecraft account to PrisonCell.

Construction of the town hall and mayorship

BBLB_YT announced a collective building event to construct a "town hall" building at the SMP world spawn. The event was livestreamed*.

It is unclear when the discussion began, but the 1st SMP started political lore when L1keW0ah pushed the first campaign ad for Mr. Moo Moo for SMP mayor on December 6th. Potentially from the ad and other internal discussions, BBLB_YT requested a server gathering to deliberate on potentially implementing a mayorship, economics, and court system on December 7th.

Following the server meeting, BBLB_YT formally announced that there would be a mayoral election and inquired about any other candidates, other than himself and Mr. Moo Moo. Controversy began immediately surrounding the campaign of Mr. Moo Moo, as he was a Minecraft Mob and raised the question of whether mobs could hold and execute public office. BBLB_YT stated that if Mr. Moo Moo won the election, he would "have a court trial to get him arrested." Uncertainty with the integrity of the election became an issue when Nicholas openly called on L1keW0ah to "buy his vote" and alleged campaign promises "from" Mr. Moo Moo to "GIVE EVERYONE A NETHERITE INGOT, KEEP PEACE, AND GIVE FREE COOKIES!" A government structure was not clearly outlined, sparking confusion about what "the government" would be. BBLB_YT cleared up some confusion by saying the Mayor would "only [be] there to make new rules people suggest and to redistribute diamonds paid for land."

The election

After various campaign signs and vandalism, the election finally came. On December 9th, 2020, the 1st SMP held the mayoral election between BBLB_YT and Mr. Moo Moo. The election ended in a tied vote (6-6), but L1keW0ah conceded on Mr. Moo Moo's behalf, thus handing the victory to BBLB_YT. 

Regardless of the victory, BBLB_YT still pursued legal action against Mr. Moo Moo and his accomplice Professor Moo. On December 10th, 2020, the Trial of Mr. Moo Moo took place. Several charges were brought against Professor Moo, who already had a criminal record, for performing illegal and inhumane experiments in an underground bunker, and one charge against Mr. Moo Moo for harboring a fugitive.

During the Trial, hockeyben42 pulled out a crossbow, fired multiple fireworks, and assassinated Mr. Moo Moo.
