I'm writing the rest of this wiki page on a text file, comprising thousands of words; I'll copy these over once I'm finished.'''<br /> '''-InternetCurtains'''<br /> <br /> Purest Pines is a town located in the Ontarian wilderness in Canada. It has been run by InternetCurtains almost continuously throughout its two-year-long lifespan, with help from the occasional comayor Bingy726. Purest Pines is part of the nation of Cascadia, situated in Manicouagan County, however it has been a member of six other nations in the past.<br /> <br /> Purest Pines is split up into three main residential 'districts' surrounding the central Aquille District, which has been furbished and decorated extensively to give it a peaceful, natural feel. The town also contains an old replica of a Victorian-era English neighbourhood, built for a building contest; a fairly obsolete business district; rebuilt ruins of an old town; and two main areas of empty, undeveloped claims.<br /> <br /> Purest Pines borders the separate town of Ontario and is also close to Chester Port, Kings, and Treasure Town, the capital of the nation of Hudson.<br /> <br /> Throughout the course of its history, countless residents have been and gone, and the town's population peaked at 102 on 7 January 2025.<br /> <br /> == Districts ==<br /> Purest Pines is split up into six distinct districts. Some of these districts are residential, whereas others serve different purposes.<br /> <br /> === '''Aquille''' ===<br /> '' 'Accueillir' - 'to host' in French ''<br /> <br /> Aquille is located near the centre of the town. It is the oldest district in the town, and is where the town spawn building - the Third Endeavour - is located. In the north of this district is Aquille Reserve, a naturalistic park home to various memorabilia from throughout the town's history, plus town embassies. The Purest Pines CityPlace - a large, cuboidal building containing prebuilt apartments for residents and the Primary Storage Unit - is located in this district as well.<br /> <br /> [[File:AquilleDistrict.webp|alt=test|500px]] ''A pathway in Aquille Reserve leading to the Chauser District.''<br /> <br /> === '''Chauser''' ===<br /> ''Named after an unknown French infinitive verb''<br /> <br /> Chauser was the second district to be made in Purest Pines. Historically, it was meant to take up a clearing on the northern side of a river between it and the Aquille District. It was first built up in late 2023, from the James Bay to the Cree Era, but InternetCurtains demolished most of the buildings in 2024 so that it could be rebuilt later. InternetCurtains retained several buildings, however, such as the Disco Tower, a skyscraper built by former resident DiscoEwe4410090, whose apartments housed the first residents in the town; Bingy Estate, a large mansion built by InternetCurtains for comayor Bingy726; and the USSNA Perm Base, a military base deemed widely to be unsightly, built by banned player USFriskI.<br /> <br /> Reconstruction of Chauser started in December 2024 during the Second Vermont Era at the height of Purest Pines, led by InternetCurtains and Bingy726 and built with help from BuilderBoy59, Amartine60, Jazbbwtyl, Platinum201547 and Aqualicorn, all of whom were residents of the town at the time. Progress was quick, and before long, an assortment of new buildings were completed, including InternetCurtains Estate, 'The Dives', a refurbished ice rail station, headquarters for the short-lived newspaper 'Purest Papers', and more. These buildings can be found in Chauser today.<br /> <br /> [[File:ChauserDistrict.webp|alt=test|500px]] ''View of InternetCurtains Estate and Bingy Estate, with the entrance to 'The Dives' in the foreground to the right, alongside the Purest Papers headquarters behind it.''<br /> <br /> === '''Cordan''' ===<br /> ''Derived from 'Cordoba', the Argentine city''<br /> <br /> Cordan was the first residential district to be built up, done so during the Cree Era. It is located in the northwestern part of town. Its plots contain simplistic borders made of flowering azalea leaves, with narrow roads connecting them made of polished deepslate, loyal to the trademark formula that all residential areas in Purest Pines follow.<br /> <br /> Near the centre of the district is Cordan Plaza, a large, hollow building with an underground section containing an inn for residents, the Maple Tavern, an automatic music disc player, and Secondary Storage for the district. Flags of the nation of Cree are flown at the top of the building.<br /> <br /> In October 2024, shortly before the foreseen acceleration in population of the town, this district was extended to the north to contain roughly twenty new plots for residents. Further expansion of the Cordan District - this time to the west - occurred in September 2025, for the same reason.<br /> [[File:CordanDistrict.webp|alt=test|500px]] ''View of the older part of the district from the top of Cordan Plaza, taken on 4 October 2024.''<br /> <br /> === '''Mercer''' ===<br /> ''Mercer is just a nice name''<br /> <br /> Mercer was the second residential district to be built, found just to the east of Aquille. Its plots contain borders made of flowering azalea leaves with smooth quartz slabs on top of them. The roads are built out of stripped dark oak wood.<br /> <br /> The first three rows of the Mercer District (including the short, two-plot wide one closest to Aquille) were built first, with an extra row and outwards extensions to all rows emerging during November 2024. Overall, the Mercer District has over 50 plots, meaning that out of the three residential districts, it's able to house the most residents - theoretically. However, the outer two rows have been deemed abandoned officially due to the difficulty in demolishing the voluminous plots in them and their distance from the town spawn, and are upkept no longer, although Kevin484848 built an unfinished shopping centre at the edge of this part of the district in August 2025.<br /> <br /> The 'Mercer Minipark' is located at the southern edge of the central rows, acting as a district centre similar to the Cordan Plaza and the Purest Pines CityPlace. It consists of two towers surrounded by a small park built originally by a resident called FlakeyYT.<br /> <br /> A large undeveloped but claimed area is located to the south of Mercer directly, although this is not considered to be part of the district and is reserved for later use.<br /> <br /> [[File:MercerDistrict.webp|alt=test|500px]] ''View of part of the Mercer District from the top of a tower looked over by a Project Ducc ducc built by DaMinecraftPanda.''<br /> <br /> === '''Cherry District''' ===<br /> ''No prizes for guessing where the name of the district comes from!''<br /> <br /> The Cherry District is located south of Aquille. It bears several resemblances to the Aquille District, with a naturalistic, forested area (cherry-themed, in this case) to the north filled with memorabilia.<br /> <br /> To the south, the Cherry District acts as a residential area, with cherry-tree-themed plot borders and roads. The easternmost road in the district was turned into an arcade by former resident Gheddochris. Three small, near-identical structures at the wilderness end of the three roads in the district commemorate the first three nations that Purest Pines joined: Canada, James Bay, and Laurentia.<br /> <br /> [[File:CherryDistrict.webp|alt=test|500px]] ''The Cherry Arcade, facing towards the wilderness.''<br /> <br /> === '''Merlin''' ===<br /> ''Original name of the town located there initially''<br /> <br /> Merlin is a small, isolated district in the far northwestern part of the town. Almost all of it was built by the owners of the former town there of the same name: Zimzam2 and Hamsterpee. Not much is known about this town, and despite its lifespan stretching from early 2023 to the end of 2024, little contact was made with the owners.<br /> <br /> However, around October 2024, Merlin 42-dayed finally, and Purest Pines claimed the town for later use, given its large size, close distance, and incredible beauty. Between these two points in time, the town was griefed moderately. Henceforth, it was rebuilt by InternetCurtains and Hyerin_ye in 2025. It serves no major purpose in Purest Pines currently, other than aesthetics.<br /> <br /> [[File:MerlinDistrict.webp|alt=test|500px]] ''Sunrise in Merlin as viewed from Merlin Lake.''<br /> <br /> == History ==<br /> Purest Pines has an incredibly broad and rich history. Throughout its two years of existence, the town has manifested itself in seven separate nations, changing nations on eight occasions. Hence, its history is split up into the eight distinct ''eras'' that follow:<br /> # Canada Era (27 June 2023 to 20 August 2023)<br /> # James Bay Era (20 August 2023 to 9 September 2023)<br /> # Laurentia Era (9 September 2023 to 23 October 2023)<br /> # Cree Era (23 October 2023 to 23 March 2024)<br /> # First Vermont Era (23 March 2024 to 23 September 2024)<br /> # Ontario Era (23 September 2024 to 17 November 2024)<br /> # Second Vermont Era (17 November 2024 to 11 July 2025)<br /> # Cascadia Era (11 July 2025 to present)<br /> The Cree Era, First Vermont Era and Ontario Era all beginning on the 23rd is entirely coincidental.<br /> Note to self: Add number of days of each era<br /> <br /> In the following subchapters, an overview of these eras will be provided. The events that occurred in these eras are provided in a timeline form to make them easier and less daunting to read. An introductory pre-Canadian-Era subchapter is given as well.<br /> <br /> === '''Pre-Canada-Era''' ===<br /> FIX THIS FUCKING PART<br /> ''InternetCurtains’ first months on EarthMC were spent largely in an inactive town called Maluku, part of the Aru Islands nation – situated around eastern Indonesia (not too far away to the west was the town of Albany, which at the time was massive and extremely populous). The town occupied a duo of small islands along with the nation capital, Iambetter. InternetCurtains logged on every single day, unlike every other person in the entire nation. Despite this, InternetCurtains stayed in Maluku for a good month or two, slowly but surely growing his wealth, knowledge of EarthMC and hoarding of items in a storage room. This was done with only two plots available to him (one which was used specifically for a farm), and the chance to make the occasional trip to Australia – a wasteland of ruined towns at this point – via a short boat ride south.<br /> InternetCurtains was enjoying his time in Maluku, but one day in June of 2023, he decided it would be fun to make his own town. The first location to found the town that came to mind to him was Canada. Not only was it vast but it was ruled by pines and solitude at the time, not towns, per se. There was a lot of room for a town to develop without it having to worry about anything like its nearby neighbours. InternetCurtains didn’t mine; his only source of gold was from the two voting websites, which he voted on every day. This meant that the process of getting 64 gold to found a town would be slow and difficult. However, this meant that a lot of time was given to InternetCurtains to plan out the town before it was built.<br /> While the 64 gold was being collected, InternetCurtains made regular journeys to eastern Canada in search for a solid place to found his town. Eventually, he found the perfect location somewhere in Quebec, to the east of James Bay. Unfortunately, though, he lost the coordinates to this place.<br /> Then, while finding his way through Ontario, InternetCurtains came across a small clearing. There was a flat middle section, a part that stretched out from the main area, a river that led to an even larger clearing and an array of ponds which could be combined into a decent lake. In this clearing, InternetCurtains could visualise the construction of a peaceful, humble town. He knew that this was the picture-perfect, unspoiled location he had been searching for.<br /> Thus, the planning of this town was now underway.<br /> The original idea was to build some sort of town centre in the middle of the small clearing. Around the perimeter of pine trees, pre-built houses for residents would be built, each one alluding to a certain type of wood. <br /> A few days before the process of getting 64 gold for the town was complete, InternetCurtains left Maluku, farewelling the town via signs at his plot, and joined New Kaliningrad, which at the time was medium-sized and around the area. It had recently become the nation capital of James Bay. He claimed a pre-built house there without consent of the mayor, USFriskI, (InternetCurtains would later learn that residents of this town were doomed to living without their own plots or support or anything, making the addition of prebuilt houses ever so slightly dubious) who InternetCurtains never even spoke to until a couple of months later. He put all of the valuable items he had taken with him from Maluku into the pre-built house.<br /> InternetCurtains started construction on the town centre first, before the town was actually founded. It was very simple: a small wooden structure took up most of a chunk. The walls were made of spruce planks with entrances of air (no doors or anything else) on each of the four corners. Five blocks up was the roof: a flat ceiling of orange glass with a perimeter of spruce planks from the walls. The floor was a simple mosaic of sorts, with four different types of wood around each corner entrance. In the centre was a four-by-four entrance into what was proposed to be the town storage, where InternetCurtains would put his things. At first, this was small and compact, but it did the job, since Purest Pines was nowhere near as large as it would be several months later, and InternetCurtains’ vision for most certainly did not include his town being a popular capital of a well-known and active nation, nor being the second-largest town in the third-largest nation on the server. The chests were countable and the walls were made cheaply of deepslate. From what was described, it may seem like this town centre was detailed, but it really wasn’t; it was incredibly simple, and not too eye-catching, either, but for InternetCurtains’ plan to make his dream humble town, it seemed alright. It actually took quite a long time for him to build this town centre despite how straightforward it was, and InternetCurtains was almost killed by a duo of hunters approaching him once while he was making it, only to be saved by a player called Peace_of_Poo who owned the town of Feces_Island_2, which took up real life Akimiski and was reasonably close to Internet’s town. This player alerted him through DMs, so InternetCurtains was able to run to a nearby nether portal just in time and wait for the hunters to disappear. The names of these two hunters have faded away in time.<br /> On the 27th of June, 2023, InternetCurtains finally managed to get 64 gold to found Purest Pines. He headed over to the clearing once again and left New Kaliningrad. <br /> This marked the start of an exceptionally extensive journey governed by InternetCurtains himself – a lengthy one filled with fallen heros, motivational loss, countless players, and so, so much more. One that InternetCurtains and so many other people will never forget, one that changed the course of a few select player’s lives, of whom most had not even touched the server yet at this point. This very moment defined so many things that can be seen all around eastern Canada, New England, Quebec and further afield.<br /> [18:12:41 NZT] [CHAT] [Towny] InternetCurtains created a new town called Purest Pines''</div>

Adding photos, history section, and notable residents soon.'''<br /> <br /> Purest Pines is a town located in the Ontarian wilderness in Canada. It has been run by InternetCurtains almost continuously throughout its two-year-long lifespan, with help from the occasional comayor Bingy726. Purest Pines is part of the nation of Cascadia, situated in Manicouagan County, however it has been a member of six other nations in the past.<br /> <br /> Purest Pines is split up into three main residential 'districts' surrounding the central Aquille District, which has been furbished and decorated extensively to give it a peaceful, natural feel. The town also contains an old replica of a Victorian-era English neighbourhood, built for a building contest; a fairly obsolete business district; rebuilt ruins of an old town; and two main areas of empty, undeveloped claims.<br /> <br /> Purest Pines borders the separate town of Ontario and is also close to Chester Port, Kings, and Treasure Town, the capital of the nation of Hudson.<br /> <br /> Throughout the course of its history, countless residents have been and gone, and the town's population peaked at 102 on 7 January 2025.<br /> <br /> == Districts ==<br /> Purest Pines is split up into six distinct districts. Some of these districts are residential, whereas others serve different purposes.<br /> <br /> === '''Aquille''' ===<br /> '' 'Accueillir' - 'to host' in French ''<br /> <br /> Aquille is located near the centre of the town. It is the oldest district in the town, and is where the town spawn building - the Third Endeavour - is located. In the north of this district is Aquille Reserve, a naturalistic park home to various memorabilia from throughout the town's history, plus town embassies. The Purest Pines CityPlace - a large, cuboidal building containing prebuilt apartments for residents and the Primary Storage Unit - is located in this district as well.<br /> <br /> [[File:AquilleDistrict.webp|alt=test|500px]] ''A pathway in Aquille Reserve leading to the Chauser District.''<br /> <br /> === '''Chauser''' ===<br /> ''Named after an unknown French infinitive verb''<br /> <br /> Chauser was the second district to be made in Purest Pines. Historically, it was meant to take up a clearing on the northern side of a river between it and the Aquille District. It was first built up in late 2023, from the James Bay to the Cree Era, but InternetCurtains demolished most of the buildings in 2024 so that it could be rebuilt later. InternetCurtains retained several buildings, however, such as the Disco Tower, a skyscraper built by former resident DiscoEwe4410090, whose apartments housed the first residents in the town; Bingy Estate, a large mansion built by InternetCurtains for comayor Bingy726; and the USSNA Perm Base, a military base deemed widely to be unsightly, built by banned player USFriskI.<br /> <br /> Reconstruction of Chauser started in December 2024 during the Second Vermont Era at the height of Purest Pines, led by InternetCurtains and Bingy726 and built with help from BuilderBoy59, Amartine60, Jazbbwtyl, Platinum201547 and Aqualicorn, all of whom were residents of the town at the time. Progress was quick, and before long, an assortment of new buildings were completed, including InternetCurtains Estate, 'The Dives', a refurbished ice rail station, headquarters for the short-lived newspaper 'Purest Papers', and more. These buildings can be found in Chauser today.<br /> <br /> [[File:ChauserDistrict.webp|alt=test|500px]] ''View of InternetCurtains Estate and Bingy Estate, with the entrance to 'The Dives' in the foreground to the right, alongside the Purest Papers headquarters behind it.''<br /> <br /> === '''Cordan''' ===<br /> ''Derived from 'Cordoba', the Argentine city''<br /> <br /> Cordan was the first residential district to be built up, done so during the Cree Era. It is located in the northwestern part of town. Its plots contain simplistic borders made of flowering azalea leaves, with narrow roads connecting them made of polished deepslate, loyal to the trademark formula that all residential areas in Purest Pines follow.<br /> <br /> Near the centre of the district is Cordan Plaza, a large, hollow building with an underground section containing an inn for residents, the Maple Tavern, an automatic music disc player, and Secondary Storage for the district. Flags of the nation of Cree are flown at the top of the building.<br /> <br /> In October 2024, shortly before the foreseen acceleration in population of the town, this district was extended to the north to contain roughly twenty new plots for residents. Further expansion of the Cordan District - this time to the west - occurred in September 2025, for the same reason.<br /> [[File:CordanDistrict.webp|alt=test|500px]] ''View of the older part of the district from the top of Cordan Plaza, taken on 4 October 2024.''<br /> <br /> === '''Mercer''' ===<br /> ''Mercer is just a nice name''<br /> <br /> Mercer was the second residential district to be built, found just to the east of Aquille. Its plots contain borders made of flowering azalea leaves with smooth quartz slabs on top of them. The roads are built out of stripped dark oak wood.<br /> <br /> The first three rows of the Mercer District (including the short, two-plot wide one closest to Aquille) were built first, with an extra row and outwards extensions to all rows emerging during November 2024. Overall, the Mercer District has over 50 plots, meaning that out of the three residential districts, it's able to house the most residents - theoretically. However, the outer two rows have been deemed abandoned officially due to the difficulty in demolishing the voluminous plots in them and their distance from the town spawn, and are upkept no longer, although Kevin484848 built an unfinished shopping centre at the edge of this part of the district in August 2025.<br /> <br /> The 'Mercer Minipark' is located at the southern edge of the central rows, acting as a district centre similar to the Cordan Plaza and the Purest Pines CityPlace. It consists of two towers surrounded by a small park built originally by a resident called FlakeyYT.<br /> <br /> A large undeveloped but claimed area is located to the south of Mercer directly, although this is not considered to be part of the district and is reserved for later use.<br /> <br /> [[File:MercerDistrict.webp|alt=test|500px]] ''View of part of the Mercer District from the top of a tower looked over by a Project Ducc ducc built by DaMinecraftPanda.''<br /> <br /> === '''Cherry District''' ===<br /> ''No prizes for guessing where the name of the district comes from!''<br /> <br /> The Cherry District is located south of Aquille. It bears several resemblances to the Aquille District, with a naturalistic, forested area (cherry-themed, in this case) to the north filled with memorabilia.<br /> <br /> To the south, the Cherry District acts as a residential area, with cherry-tree-themed plot borders and roads. The easternmost road in the district was turned into an arcade by former resident Gheddochris. Three small, near-identical structures at the wilderness end of the three roads in the district commemorate the first three nations that Purest Pines joined: Canada, James Bay, and Laurentia.<br /> <br /> [[File:CherryDistrict.webp|alt=test|500px]] ''The Cherry Arcade, facing towards the wilderness.''<br /> <br /> === '''Merlin''' ===<br /> ''Original name of the town located there initially''<br /> <br /> Merlin is a small, isolated district in the far northwestern part of the town. Almost all of it was built by the owners of the former town there of the same name: Zimzam2 and Hamsterpee. Not much is known about this town, and despite its lifespan stretching from early 2023 to the end of 2024, little contact was made with the owners.<br /> <br /> However, around October 2024, Merlin 42-dayed finally, and Purest Pines claimed the town for later use, given its large size, close distance, and incredible beauty. Between these two points in time, the town was griefed moderately. Henceforth, it was rebuilt by InternetCurtains and Hyerin_ye in 2025. It serves no major purpose in Purest Pines currently, other than aesthetics.<br /> <br /> [[File:MerlinDistrict.webp|alt=test|500px]] ''Sunrise in Merlin as viewed from Merlin Lake.''<br /> <br /> == History ==<br /> Purest Pines has an incredibly broad and rich history. Throughout its two years of existence, the town has manifested itself in seven separate nations, changing nations on eight occasions. Hence, its history is split up into the eight distinct ''eras'' that follow:<br /> # Canada Era (27 June 2023 to 20 August 2023)<br /> # James Bay Era (20 August 2023 to 9 September 2023)<br /> # Laurentia Era (9 September 2023 to 23 October 2023)<br /> # Cree Era (23 October 2023 to 23 March 2024)<br /> # First Vermont Era (23 March 2024 to 23 September 2024)<br /> # Ontario Era (23 September 2024 to 17 November 2024)<br /> # Second Vermont Era (17 November 2024 to 11 July 2025)<br /> # Cascadia Era (11 July 2025 to present)<br /> The Cree Era, First Vermont Era and Ontario Era all beginning on the 23rd is entirely coincidental.<br /> Note to self: Add number of days of each era<br /> <br /> In the following subchapters, an overview of these eras will be provided. The events that occurred in these eras are provided in a timeline form to make them easier and less daunting to read. An introductory pre-Canadian-Era subchapter is given as well.<br /> <br /> === '''Pre-Canada-Era''' ===<br /> FIX THIS FUCKING PART<br /> ''InternetCurtains’ first months on EarthMC were spent largely in an inactive town called Maluku, part of the Aru Islands nation – situated around eastern Indonesia (not too far away to the west was the town of Albany, which at the time was massive and extremely populous). The town occupied a duo of small islands along with the nation capital, Iambetter. InternetCurtains logged on every single day, unlike every other person in the entire nation. Despite this, InternetCurtains stayed in Maluku for a good month or two, slowly but surely growing his wealth, knowledge of EarthMC and hoarding of items in a storage room. This was done with only two plots available to him (one which was used specifically for a farm), and the chance to make the occasional trip to Australia – a wasteland of ruined towns at this point – via a short boat ride south.<br /> InternetCurtains was enjoying his time in Maluku, but one day in June of 2023, he decided it would be fun to make his own town. The first location to found the town that came to mind to him was Canada. Not only was it vast but it was ruled by pines and solitude at the time, not towns, per se. There was a lot of room for a town to develop without it having to worry about anything like its nearby neighbours. InternetCurtains didn’t mine; his only source of gold was from the two voting websites, which he voted on every day. This meant that the process of getting 64 gold to found a town would be slow and difficult. However, this meant that a lot of time was given to InternetCurtains to plan out the town before it was built.<br /> While the 64 gold was being collected, InternetCurtains made regular journeys to eastern Canada in search for a solid place to found his town. Eventually, he found the perfect location somewhere in Quebec, to the east of James Bay. Unfortunately, though, he lost the coordinates to this place.<br /> Then, while finding his way through Ontario, InternetCurtains came across a small clearing. There was a flat middle section, a part that stretched out from the main area, a river that led to an even larger clearing and an array of ponds which could be combined into a decent lake. In this clearing, InternetCurtains could visualise the construction of a peaceful, humble town. He knew that this was the picture-perfect, unspoiled location he had been searching for.<br /> Thus, the planning of this town was now underway.<br /> The original idea was to build some sort of town centre in the middle of the small clearing. Around the perimeter of pine trees, pre-built houses for residents would be built, each one alluding to a certain type of wood. <br /> A few days before the process of getting 64 gold for the town was complete, InternetCurtains left Maluku, farewelling the town via signs at his plot, and joined New Kaliningrad, which at the time was medium-sized and around the area. It had recently become the nation capital of James Bay. He claimed a pre-built house there without consent of the mayor, USFriskI, (InternetCurtains would later learn that residents of this town were doomed to living without their own plots or support or anything, making the addition of prebuilt houses ever so slightly dubious) who InternetCurtains never even spoke to until a couple of months later. He put all of the valuable items he had taken with him from Maluku into the pre-built house.<br /> InternetCurtains started construction on the town centre first, before the town was actually founded. It was very simple: a small wooden structure took up most of a chunk. The walls were made of spruce planks with entrances of air (no doors or anything else) on each of the four corners. Five blocks up was the roof: a flat ceiling of orange glass with a perimeter of spruce planks from the walls. The floor was a simple mosaic of sorts, with four different types of wood around each corner entrance. In the centre was a four-by-four entrance into what was proposed to be the town storage, where InternetCurtains would put his things. At first, this was small and compact, but it did the job, since Purest Pines was nowhere near as large as it would be several months later, and InternetCurtains’ vision for most certainly did not include his town being a popular capital of a well-known and active nation, nor being the second-largest town in the third-largest nation on the server. The chests were countable and the walls were made cheaply of deepslate. From what was described, it may seem like this town centre was detailed, but it really wasn’t; it was incredibly simple, and not too eye-catching, either, but for InternetCurtains’ plan to make his dream humble town, it seemed alright. It actually took quite a long time for him to build this town centre despite how straightforward it was, and InternetCurtains was almost killed by a duo of hunters approaching him once while he was making it, only to be saved by a player called Peace_of_Poo who owned the town of Feces_Island_2, which took up real life Akimiski and was reasonably close to Internet’s town. This player alerted him through DMs, so InternetCurtains was able to run to a nearby nether portal just in time and wait for the hunters to disappear. The names of these two hunters have faded away in time.<br /> On the 27th of June, 2023, InternetCurtains finally managed to get 64 gold to found Purest Pines. He headed over to the clearing once again and left New Kaliningrad. <br /> This marked the start of an exceptionally extensive journey governed by InternetCurtains himself – a lengthy one filled with fallen heros, motivational loss, countless players, and so, so much more. One that InternetCurtains and so many other people will never forget, one that changed the course of a few select player’s lives, of whom most had not even touched the server yet at this point. This very moment defined so many things that can be seen all around eastern Canada, New England, Quebec and further afield.<br /> [18:12:41 NZT] [CHAT] [Towny] InternetCurtains created a new town called Purest Pines''</div>

I had been searching for some sort of server to play endlessly, since I had just got a PC and didn't have Discord at the time. I ended up deciding to play this 'EarthMC', which sparked my interest due to its Earth map and surplus of players online. On the first day, out of pure boredom, I decided to play for an hour, just exploring and getting used to its excessive lag. Eventually, I got more bored, at which point I left the server.<br /> <br /> About four days later, I decided to join EarthMC again because I was still bored and wanted to talk to someone. After saying 'hello' in global chat, I immediately got a message from a player: MrX_1208, mayor of New Orthinia, Caspian. He asked me to join his town, to which I replied 'sure' for no reason, expecting to leave the server in due course and never join back. But this server was different; more... Alive.<br /> <br /> I started mining, storing, and getting iron armour, and then exploring other towns, with one in particular which caught my eye: Houston, Texas. I decided that if MrX_1208 - the mayor of my town - didn't get on as much as I hoped, I would join Houston. After all, its mayor, LivingHumanBeing, seemed much more supportive and active. In the end, after leaving a marginally heartfelt sign saying 'sorry' in New Orthinia, I left for Houston. <br /> <br /> This was the start of my more active life on EarthMC. I stayed in Texas for a couple of months, meeting several players, such as IanSpace71 (who has been playing since Classic) on one of his most popular streams. What followed was about a week's worth of constant cyberbullying, hunting, and trapping, directed at the whole of Houston. It was carried out by none other than Rodekeel, the notorious hunter from the former nation of Chad. This started off as simple hunting: just waiting with invisibility outside of town claims until residents left their plot. However, this soon became annoying. Eventually, the target wasn't just Houston: it became me.<br /> <br /> I would teleport back to Rodekeel's town, asking to team so that I wouldn't be a target, but this just made it worse for me. His most popular trap, a giant wither rose pit, was used on me, luring me in via deception. This was when I became angry, and decided to say something in global about it. Really, this was merely saying that &quot;they were trapping&quot; and &quot;being annoying&quot;. However, little did I know that this message would send me down a slippery slope, inadvertently leading to the slowest, most painful downfall of my entire life.<br /> <br /> === '''Renaissance''' ===<br /> This is where my career on EarthMC became a fully-blown addiction, from just a simple hobby. When I sent that message in chat, a very well-known player, InternetCurtains, came to my aid. With me not knowing his experience on the server, I stupidly asked him whether he had X-ray on too, since I was using it to look at Rodekeel's trap. He corrected me quickly and let me know that X-raying is actually bannable and best not done. Seeing someone who genuinely wanted to help me kind of felt like a luxury, so I decided that I would join his town: Purest Pines, Cree.<br /> <br /> === '''Nadir''' ===<br /> Once I joined Purest Pines, I felt at home. Sometimes, I would join the server randomly to message InternetCurtains &quot;hehe&quot; and then hide somewhere in the town. This would continue for a little while - until he would bring out the netherite armour. For some reason, this sparked an idea in my twelve-year-old head to make a video about it. Unfortunately, this video is lost to time and cannot be recovered. Essentially, though, it was a mini-manhunt, with me just hiding for half of its duration and eventually gaining the confidence to come out of my hiding spot, just to get killed almost immediately.<br /> <br /> This sort of practice became a trend, to the point at which I would stay up past 01:00, sneaking from my parents just to play a game. After a while of this, around May 2024, InternetCurtains dropped a bomb on me: he announced that he needed to study and subsequently wouldn't be playing as often as he once did. This sparked a new series of events, starting off with sleep deprivation. I started doing terribly in school since I was so tired, to the point at which I had 45 missing assignments from classes. This was becoming a problem, and I started becoming depressed since I really didn't have many other friends to play with at the time.<br /> <br /> My sleep deprivation became a serious problem around September 2024, when I became so tired and had so many problems going on at once that I decided to fake my own death. My reasoning was that this would make me become disinterested in EarthMC and eventually quit it. In the process, I made a very close friend quit the server and many others upset, over such a stupid, fraudulent reason.<br /> <br /> === '''Capstone''' ===<br /> On 31 January 2025, I revealed that I was still alive. By that point, I was sleeping correctly, and I wasn't staying up past 22:00 to play EarthMC. My school grades were peaking and I was relatively mentally stable. Around this time, InternetCurtains didn't have any studies to do, so we started playing and talking again, more as friends than ever before. We would play EarthMC, along with several other servers such as WorldMC.<br /> <br /> As of the time of writing, InternetCurtains has studies again, but there won't be a complete mental breakdown like last time.<br /> <br /> <br /> ''WifiShutters, 6 November 2025''<br /> == Towns ==<br /> This is a list of the primary towns in which WifiShutters has resided over the ages, in order of prominence.<br /> * Purest Pines<br /> * New Kaliningrad (now Chester Port)<br /> * New Orthinia<br /> * Lunaria<br /> <br /> [[Category:Help]]<br /> [[Category:Article Layout Templates]]</div>

He has spent the bulk of his time on EarthMC in Purest Pines and affiliated towns, and is good friends with its mayor, InternetCurtains.<br /> <br /> == Aliases ==<br /> WifiShutters has had numerous other usernames in the past, including but not limited to the following, in chronological order:<br /> * BrayStillGamesYT<br /> * TuftyYT<br /> * Lithium_Ion_batt<br /> * conexio_<br /> * celcix_<br /> * sweatish_<br /> * Luminariad<br /> * 0fba<br /> * mahindra<br /> <br /> == History ==<br /> ''The following is WifiShutters' autobiography, edited by InternetCurtains and finished on 6 November 2025.''<br /> === '''Genesis''' ===<br /> 11 September 2023. I had been searching for some sort of server to play endlessly, since I had just got a PC and didn't have Discord at the time. I ended up deciding to play this 'EarthMC', which sparked my interest due to its Earth map and surplus of players online. On the first day, out of pure boredom, I decided to play for an hour, just exploring and getting used to its excessive lag. Eventually, I got more bored, at which point I left the server.<br /> <br /> About four days later, I decided to join EarthMC again because I was still bored and wanted to talk to someone. After saying 'hello' in global chat, I immediately got a message from a player: MrX_1208, mayor of New Orthinia, Caspian. He asked me to join his town, to which I replied 'sure' for no reason, expecting to leave the server in due course and never join back. But this server was different; more... Alive.<br /> <br /> I started mining, storing, and getting iron armour, and then exploring other towns, with one in particular which caught my eye: Houston, Texas. I decided that if MrX_1208 - the mayor of my town - didn't get on as much as I hoped, I would join Houston. After all, its mayor, LivingHumanBeing, seemed much more supportive and active. In the end, after leaving a marginally heartfelt sign saying 'sorry' in New Orthinia, I left for Houston. <br /> <br /> This was the start of my more active life on EarthMC. I stayed in Texas for a couple of months, meeting several players, such as IanSpace71 (who has been playing since Classic) on one of his most popular streams. What followed was about a week's worth of constant cyberbullying, hunting, and trapping, directed at the whole of Houston. It was carried out by none other than Rodekeel, the notorious hunter from the former nation of Chad. This started off as simple hunting: just waiting with invisibility outside of town claims until residents left their plot. However, this soon became annoying. Eventually, the target wasn't just Houston: it became me.<br /> <br /> I would teleport back to Rodekeel's town, asking to team so that I wouldn't be a target, but this just made it worse for me. His most popular trap, a giant wither rose pit, was used on me, luring me in via deception. This was when I became angry, and decided to say something in global about it. Really, this was merely saying that &quot;they were trapping&quot; and &quot;being annoying&quot;. However, little did I know that this message would send me down a slippery slope, inadvertently leading to the slowest, most painful downfall of my entire life.<br /> <br /> === '''Renaissance''' ===<br /> This is where my career on EarthMC became a fully-blown addiction, from just a simple hobby. When I sent that message in chat, a very well-known player, InternetCurtains, came to my aid. With me not knowing his experience on the server, I stupidly asked him whether he had X-ray on too, since I was using it to look at Rodekeel's trap. He corrected me quickly and let me know that X-raying is actually bannable and best not done. Seeing someone who genuinely wanted to help me kind of felt like a luxury, so I decided that I would join his town: Purest Pines, Cree.<br /> <br /> === '''Nadir''' ===<br /> Once I joined Purest Pines, I felt at home. Sometimes, I would join the server randomly to message InternetCurtains &quot;hehe&quot; and then hide somewhere in the town. This would continue for a little while - until he would bring out the netherite armour. For some reason, this sparked an idea in my twelve-year-old head to make a video about it. Unfortunately, this video is lost to time and cannot be recovered. Essentially, though, it was a mini-manhunt, with me just hiding for half of its duration and eventually gaining the confidence to come out of my hiding spot, just to get killed almost immediately.<br /> <br /> This sort of practice became a trend, to the point at which I would stay up past 01:00, sneaking from my parents just to play a game. After a while of this, around May 2024, InternetCurtains dropped a bomb on me: he announced that he needed to study and subsequently wouldn't be playing as often as he once did. This sparked a new series of events, starting off with sleep deprivation. I started doing terribly in school since I was so tired, to the point at which I had 45 missing assignments from classes. This was becoming a problem, and I started becoming depressed since I really didn't have many other friends to play with at the time.<br /> <br /> My sleep deprivation became a serious problem around September 2024, when I became so tired and had so many problems going on at once that I decided to fake my own death. My reasoning was that this would make me become disinterested in EarthMC and eventually quit it.

I had been searching hour of some sort of server to play endlessly, since I had just got a PC and didn't have Discord at the time. I ended up deciding to play this 'EarthMC', which sparked my interest due to its Earth map and surplus of players online. On the first day, out of pure boredom, I decided to play for an hour, just exploring and getting used to its excessive lag. Eventually, I got more bored, to which I left.<br /> <br /> About four days later, I decided to join EarthMC again because I was still bored and wanted to talk to someone. After saying 'hello' in global chat, I immediately got a message from a player: MrX_1208, mayor of New Orthinia, Caspian. He asked me to join his town, to which I replied 'sure' for no reason, expecting to leave the server in due course and never join back. But this server was different; more... Alive.<br /> <br /> I started mining, storing, and getting iron armour, and then exploring other towns, with one in particular which caught my eye: Houston, Texas. I decided that if MrX_1208 - the mayor of my town - didn't get on as much as I hoped, I would join Houston. After all, its mayor, LivingHumanBeing, seemed much more supportive and active. In the end, after leaving a marginally heartfelt sign saying 'sorry' in New Orthinia, I left for Houston. <br /> <br /> This was the start of my more active life on EarthMC. I stayed in Texas for a couple of months, meeting several players, such as IanSpace71 (who has been playing since Classic) on one of his most popular streams. What followed was about a week's worth of constant cyberbullying, hunting, and trapping, directed at the whole of Houston. It was carried out by none other than Rodekeel, the notorious hunter from the former nation of Chad. This started off as simple hunting: just waiting with invisibility outside of town claims until residents left their plot. However, this soon became annoying. Eventually, the target wasn't just Houston: it became me.<br /> <br /> I would teleport back to Rodekeel's town, asking to team so that I wouldn't be a target, but this just made it worse for me. His most popular trap, a giant wither rose pit, was used on me, luring me in via deception. This was when I became angry, and decided to say something in global about it. Really, this was merely saying that &quot;they were trapping&quot; and &quot;being annoying&quot;. However, little did I know that this message would send me down a slippery slope, inadvertently leading to the slowest, most painful downfall of my entire life.<br /> <br /> === '''Renaissance''' ===<br /> This is where my career on EarthMC became a fully-blown addiction, from just a simple hobby. When I sent that message in chat, a very well-known player, InternetCurtains, came to my aid. With me not knowing his experience on the server, I stupidly asked him whether he had x-ray on too, since I was using it to look at Rodekeel's trap. He corrected me quickly and let me know that x-raying is actually bannable and best not done. Seeing someone whom genuinely wanted to help me kind of felt like a luxury, so I decided that I would join his town: Purest Pines, Cree.<br /> <br /> === '''Nadir''' ===<br /> Once I joined Purest Pines, I felt at home. Sometimes, I would join the server randomly to message InternetCurtains &quot;hehe&quot; and then hide somewhere in the town. This would continue for a little while - until he would bring out the netherite armour. For some reason, this sparked an idea in my twelve-year-old head to make a video about it. Unfortunately, this video is lost to time and cannot be recovered. Essentially, though, it was a mini-manhunt, with me just hiding for half of its duration, and eventually gaining the confidence to come out of my hiding spot, just to get killed almost immediately.<br /> <br /> This sort of practice became a trend, to the point at which I would stay up past 01:00, sneaking from my parents just to play a game. After a while of this, around May 2024, InternetCurtains dropped a bomb on me: he announced that he needed to study and subsequently wouldn't be playing as often as he once did. This sparked a new series of events, starting off with sleep deprivation. I started doing terribly in school, since I was so tired, to the point at which I had 45 missing assignments from classes. This was becoming a problem, and I started becoming depressed, since I really didn't have many other friends to play with at the time.<br /> <br /> My sleep deprivation became a serious problem around September 2024, when I became so tired and had so many problems going on at once that I decided to fake my own death. My reasoning was that this would make me become disinterested in EarthMC and eventually quit it. In the process, I made a very close friend quit the server himself, and many others upset over such a stupid, fraudulent reason.<br /> <br /> === '''Capstone''' ===<br /> On 31 January 2025, I revealed that I was still alive. By that point, I was sleeping correctly, and I wasn't staying up past 22:00 to play EarthMC. My school grades were peaking and I was relatively mentally stable. Around this time, InternetCurtains didn't have any studies to do, so we started playing and talking again, more as friends than ever before. We would play EarthMC, along with several other servers such as WorldMC.<br /> <br /> As of time of writing, InternetCurtains has studies again, but there won't be a complete mental breakdown like last time.<br /> <br /> <br /> ''WifiShutters, 6 November 2025''<br /> == Towns ==<br /> This is a list of the primary towns in which WifiShutters has resided over the ages, in order of prominence.<br /> * Purest Pines<br /> * New Kaliningrad (now Chester Port)<br /> * New Orthinia<br /> * Lunaria<br /> WifiShutters, if there are any other towns which I haven't mentioned (there'll be at least one lol), please DM me<br /> <br /> [[Category:Help]]<br /> [[Category:Article Layout Templates]]</div>

Adding photos, history section, and notable residents soon.'''<br /> <br /> Purest Pines is a town located in the Ontarian wilderness in Canada. It has been run by InternetCurtains almost continuously throughout its two-year-long lifespan, with help from the occasional comayor Bingy726. Purest Pines is part of the nation of Cascadia, situated in Manicouagan County, however it has been a member of six other nations in the past.<br /> <br /> Purest Pines is split up into three main residential 'districts' surrounding the central Aquille District, which has been furbished and decorated extensively to give it a peaceful, natural feel. The town also contains an old replica of a Victorian-era English neighbourhood, built for a building contest; a fairly obsolete business district; rebuilt ruins of an old town; and two main areas of empty, undeveloped claims.<br /> <br /> Purest Pines borders the separate town of Ontario and is also close to Chester Port, Kings, and Treasure Town, the capital of the nation of Hudson.<br /> <br /> Throughout the course of its history, countless residents have been and gone, and the town's population peaked at 102 on 7 January 2025.<br /> <br /> == Districts ==<br /> Purest Pines is split up into six distinct districts. Some of these districts are residential, whereas others serve different purposes.<br /> <br /> === '''Aquille''' ===<br /> '' 'Accueillir' - 'to host' in French ''<br /> <br /> Aquille is located near the centre of the town. It is the oldest district in the town, and is where the town spawn building, the Third Endeavour, is located. To the north of this district is Aquille Reserve, a naturalistic park home to various memorabilia from throughout the town's history, plus town embassies. The Purest Pines CityPlace, a large, cuboidal building containing prebuilt apartments for residents and the Primary Storage for the town is located in this district as well.<br /> <br /> [[File:AquilleDistrict.webp|alt=test|500px]] ''A pathway in Aquille Reserve leading to the Chauser District.''<br /> <br /> === '''Chauser''' ===<br /> ''Named after an unknown French infinitive verb''<br /> <br /> Chauser was the second district to be made in Purest Pines. Historically, it was meant to take up a clearing on the northern side of a river between it and the Aquille District. It was built up first in late 2023 from the James Bay to the Cree Era, but InternetCurtains demolished most of the buildings in 2024 so that it could be rebuilt later. InternetCurtains retained several buildings, however, such as the Disco Tower, a skyscraper built by former resident DiscoEwe4410090, whose apartments housed the first residents in the town; Bingy Estate, a large mansion built by InternetCurtains for comayor Bingy726; and the USSNA Perm Base, a military base deemed widely to be unsightly, built by banned player USFriskI.<br /> <br /> Reconstruction of Chauser started in December 2024 during the Second Vermont Era at the height of Purest Pines, led by InternetCurtains and Bingy726 and built with help from BuilderBoy59, Amartine60, Jazbbwtyl, Platinum201547 and Aqualicorn, all of whom were residents of the town at the time. Progress was quick, and before long, an assortment of new buildings were completed, including InternetCurtains Estate, 'The Dives', a refurbished ice rail station, headquarters for the short-lived newspaper 'Purest Papers', and more. These buildings can be found in Chauser today.<br /> <br /> [[File:ChauserDistrict.webp|alt=test|500px]] ''View of InternetCurtains Estate and Bingy Estate, with the entrance to 'The Dives' in the foreground to the right, alongside the Purest Papers headquarters behind it.''<br /> <br /> === '''Cordan''' ===<br /> ''Derived from 'Cordoba', the Argentine city''<br /> <br /> Cordan was the first residential district to be built up, done so during the Cree Era. It is located in the northwestern part of town. Its plots contain simplistic borders made of flowering azalea leaves, with narrow roads connecting them made of polished deepslate, loyal to the trademark formula that all residential areas in Purest Pines follow.<br /> <br /> Near the centre of the district is Cordan Plaza, a large, hollow building with an underground section containing an inn for residents, the Maple Tavern, an automatic music disc player, and Secondary Storage for the district. Flags of the nation of Cree are flown at the top of the building.<br /> <br /> In October 2024, shortly before the foreseen acceleration in population of the town, this district was extended to the north, containing roughly twenty new plots for residents.<br /> <br /> [[File:CordanDistrict.webp|alt=test|500px]] ''View of the older part of the district from the top of Cordan Plaza, taken on 4 October 2024.''<br /> <br /> === '''Mercer''' ===<br /> ''Mercer is just a nice name''<br /> <br /> Mercer was the second residential district to be built, found just to the east of Aquille. Its plots contain borders made of flowering azalea leaves with smooth quartz slabs on top of them. The roads are built out of stripped dark oak wood.<br /> <br /> The first three rows of the Mercer District (including the short, two-plot wide one closest to Aquille) were built first, with an extra row and outwards extensions to all rows emerging during November 2024. Overall, the Mercer District has over 50 plots, meaning that out of the three residential districts, it's able to house the most residents theoretically. However, the outer two rows have been deemed abandoned officially due to the difficulty in demolishing the voluminous plots in them and their distance from the town spawn and are upkept no longer, although Kevin484848 built an unfinished shopping centre at the edge of this edge of the district in August 2025.<br /> <br /> The 'Mercer Minipark' is located at the southern edge of the central rows, acting as a district centre similar to the Cordan Plaza and the Purest Pines CityPlace. It consists of two towers surrounded by a small park built originally by a resident called FlakeyYT.<br /> <br /> A large undeveloped but claimed area is located to the south of Mercer directly, although this is not considered to be part of the district and is reserved for later use.<br /> <br /> [[File:MercerDistrict.webp|alt=test|500px]] ''View of part of the Mercer District from the top of a tower looked over by a Project Ducc ducc built by DaMinecraftPanda.''<br /> <br /> === '''Cherry District''' ===<br /> ''No prizes for guessing where the name of the district comes from!''<br /> <br /> The Cherry District is located south of Aquille. It bears several resemblances to the Aquille District, with a naturalistic, cherry-themed forested area to the north filled with memorabilia.<br /> <br /> To the south, the Cherry District acts as a residential area, with cherry-tree-themed plot borders and roads. The easternmost road in the district was turned into an arcade by former resident Gheddochris. Three small, near-identical structures at the wilderness end of the three roads in the district commemorate the first three nations that Purest Pines joined: Canada, James Bay, and Laurentia.<br /> <br /> [[File:CherryDistrict.webp|alt=test|500px]] ''The Cherry Arcade, facing towards the wilderness.''<br /> <br /> === '''Merlin''' ===<br /> ''Original name of the town located there initially''<br /> <br /> Merlin is a small, isolated district in the far northwestern part of the town. Almost all of it was built by the owners of the former town there of the same name: Zimzam2 and Hamsterpee. Not much is known about this town, and despite its lifespan stretching from early 2023 to the end of 2024, little contact was made with the owners.<br /> <br /> However, around October 2024, Merlin 42-dayed finally, and Purest Pines claimed the town for later use, given its large size, close distance, and incredible beauty. Between these two points in time, the town was griefed moderately. Henceforth, it was rebuilt by InternetCurtains and Hyerin_ye in 2025. It serves no major purpose in Purest Pines currently, other than aesthetics.<br /> <br /> [[File:MerlinDistrict.webp|alt=test|500px]] ''Sunrise in Merlin as viewed from Merlin Lake.''<br /> <br /> == History ==<br /> Purest Pines has an incredibly broad and rich history. Throughout its two years of existence, the town has manifested itself in seven separate nations, changing nations on eight occasions. Hence, its history is split up into the eight distinct ''eras'' that follow:<br /> # Canadian Era (27 June 2023 to 20 August 2023)<br /> # James Bay Era (20 August 2023 to 9 September 2023)<br /> # Laurentia Era (9 September 2023 to 23 October 2023)<br /> # Cree Era (23 October 2023 to 23 March 2024)<br /> # First Vermont Era (23 March 2024 to 23 September 2024)<br /> # Ontario Era (23 September 2024 to 17 November 2024)<br /> # Second Vermont Era (17 November 2024 to 11 July 2025)<br /> # Cascadia Era (11 July 2025 to 16 August 2025)<br /> The Cree Era, First Vermont Era and Ontario Era all beginning on the 23rd is entirely coincidental.<br /> Note to self: Add number of days of each era<br /> <br /> In the following subchapters, an overview of these eras will be provided. The events that occurred in these eras are provided in a timeline form to make them easier and less daunting to read. An introductory pre-Canadian-Era subchapter is given as well.<br /> <br /> === '''Pre-Canadian-Era''' ===<br /> FIX THIS FUCKING PART<br /> ''InternetCurtains’ first months on EarthMC were spent largely in an inactive town called Maluku, part of the Aru Islands nation – situated around eastern Indonesia (not too far away to the west was the town of Albany, which at the time was massive and extremely populous). The town occupied a duo of small islands along with the nation capital, Iambetter. InternetCurtains logged on every single day, unlike every other person in the entire nation. Despite this, InternetCurtains stayed in Maluku for a good month or two, slowly but surely growing his wealth, knowledge of EarthMC and hoarding of items in a storage room. This was done with only two plots available to him (one which was used specifically for a farm), and the chance to make the occasional trip to Australia – a wasteland of ruined towns at this point – via a short boat ride south.<br /> InternetCurtains was enjoying his time in Maluku, but one day in June of 2023, he decided it would be fun to make his own town. The first location to found the town that came to mind to him was Canada. Not only was it vast but it was ruled by pines and solitude at the time, not towns, per se. There was a lot of room for a town to develop without it having to worry about anything like its nearby neighbours. InternetCurtains didn’t mine; his only source of gold was from the two voting websites, which he voted on every day. This meant that the process of getting 64 gold to found a town would be slow and difficult. However, this meant that a lot of time was given to InternetCurtains to plan out the town before it was built.<br /> While the 64 gold was being collected, InternetCurtains made regular journeys to eastern Canada in search for a solid place to found his town. Eventually, he found the perfect location somewhere in Quebec, to the east of James Bay. Unfortunately, though, he lost the coordinates to this place.<br /> Then, while finding his way through Ontario, InternetCurtains came across a small clearing. There was a flat middle section, a part that stretched out from the main area, a river that led to an even larger clearing and an array of ponds which could be combined into a decent lake. In this clearing, InternetCurtains could visualise the construction of a peaceful, humble town. He knew that this was the picture-perfect, unspoiled location he had been searching for.<br /> Thus, the planning of this town was now underway.<br /> The original idea was to build some sort of town centre in the middle of the small clearing. Around the perimeter of pine trees, pre-built houses for residents would be built, each one alluding to a certain type of wood. <br /> A few days before the process of getting 64 gold for the town was complete, InternetCurtains left Maluku, farewelling the town via signs at his plot, and joined New Kaliningrad, which at the time was medium-sized and around the area. It had recently become the nation capital of James Bay. He claimed a pre-built house there without consent of the mayor, USFriskI, (InternetCurtains would later learn that residents of this town were doomed to living without their own plots or support or anything, making the addition of prebuilt houses ever so slightly dubious) who InternetCurtains never even spoke to until a couple of months later. He put all of the valuable items he had taken with him from Maluku into the pre-built house.<br /> InternetCurtains started construction on the town centre first, before the town was actually founded. It was very simple: a small wooden structure took up most of a chunk. The walls were made of spruce planks with entrances of air (no doors or anything else) on each of the four corners. Five blocks up was the roof: a flat ceiling of orange glass with a perimeter of spruce planks from the walls. The floor was a simple mosaic of sorts, with four different types of wood around each corner entrance. In the centre was a four-by-four entrance into what was proposed to be the town storage, where InternetCurtains would put his things. At first, this was small and compact, but it did the job, since Purest Pines was nowhere near as large as it would be several months later, and InternetCurtains’ vision for most certainly did not include his town being a popular capital of a well-known and active nation, nor being the second-largest town in the third-largest nation on the server. The chests were countable and the walls were made cheaply of deepslate. From what was described, it may seem like this town centre was detailed, but it really wasn’t; it was incredibly simple, and not too eye-catching, either, but for InternetCurtains’ plan to make his dream humble town, it seemed alright. It actually took quite a long time for him to build this town centre despite how straightforward it was, and InternetCurtains was almost killed by a duo of hunters approaching him once while he was making it, only to be saved by a player called Peace_of_Poo who owned the town of Feces_Island_2, which took up real life Akimiski and was reasonably close to Internet’s town. This player alerted him through DMs, so InternetCurtains was able to run to a nearby nether portal just in time and wait for the hunters to disappear. The names of these two hunters have faded away in time.<br /> On the 27th of June, 2023, InternetCurtains finally managed to get 64 gold to found Purest Pines. He headed over to the clearing once again and left New Kaliningrad. <br /> This marked the start of an exceptionally extensive journey governed by InternetCurtains himself – a lengthy one filled with fallen heros, motivational loss, countless players, and so, so much more. One that InternetCurtains and so many other people will never forget, one that changed the course of a few select player’s lives, of whom most had not even touched the server yet at this point. This very moment defined so many things that can be seen all around eastern Canada, New England, Quebec and further afield.<br /> [18:12:41 NZT] [CHAT] [Towny] InternetCurtains created a new town called Purest Pines''</div>

The events that occurred in these eras are provided in a timeline form to make them easier and less daunting to read. An introductory pre-Canadian-Era subchapter is given as well.<br /> <br /> === '''Pre-Canadian-Era''' ===<br /> FIX THIS FUCKING PART<br /> ''InternetCurtains’ first months on EarthMC were spent largely in an inactive town called Maluku, part of the Aru Islands nation – situated around eastern Indonesia (not too far away to the west was the town of Albany, which at the time was massive and extremely populous). The town occupied a duo of small islands along with the nation capital, Iambetter. InternetCurtains logged on every single day, unlike every other person in the entire nation. Despite this, InternetCurtains stayed in Maluku for a good month or two, slowly but surely growing his wealth, knowledge of EarthMC and hoarding of items in a storage room. This was done with only two plots available to him (one which was used specifically for a farm), and the chance to make the occasional trip to Australia – a wasteland of ruined towns at this point – via a short boat ride south.<br /> InternetCurtains was enjoying his time in Maluku, but one day in June of 2023, he decided it would be fun to make his own town. The first location to found the town that came to mind to him was Canada. Not only was it vast but it was ruled by pines and solitude at the time, not towns, per se. There was a lot of room for a town to develop without it having to worry about anything like its nearby neighbours. InternetCurtains didn’t mine; his only source of gold was from the two voting websites, which he voted on every day. This meant that the process of getting 64 gold to found a town would be slow and difficult. However, this meant that a lot of time was given to InternetCurtains to plan out the town before it was built.<br /> While the 64 gold was being collected, InternetCurtains made regular journeys to eastern Canada in search for a solid place to found his town. Eventually, he found the perfect location somewhere in Quebec, to the east of James Bay. Unfortunately, though, he lost the coordinates to this place.<br /> Then, while finding his way through Ontario, InternetCurtains came across a small clearing. There was a flat middle section, a part that stretched out from the main area, a river that led to an even larger clearing and an array of ponds which could be combined into a decent lake. In this clearing, InternetCurtains could visualise the construction of a peaceful, humble town. He knew that this was the picture-perfect, unspoiled location he had been searching for.<br /> Thus, the planning of this town was now underway.<br /> The original idea was to build some sort of town centre in the middle of the small clearing. Around the perimeter of pine trees, pre-built houses for residents would be built, each one alluding to a certain type of wood. <br /> A few days before the process of getting 64 gold for the town was complete, InternetCurtains left Maluku, farewelling the town via signs at his plot, and joined New Kaliningrad, which at the time was medium-sized and around the area. It had recently become the nation capital of James Bay. He claimed a pre-built house there without consent of the mayor, USFriskI, (InternetCurtains would later learn that residents of this town were doomed to living without their own plots or support or anything, making the addition of prebuilt houses ever so slightly dubious) who InternetCurtains never even spoke to until a couple of months later. He put all of the valuable items he had taken with him from Maluku into the pre-built house.<br /> InternetCurtains started construction on the town centre first, before the town was actually founded. It was very simple: a small wooden structure took up most of a chunk. The walls were made of spruce planks with entrances of air (no doors or anything else) on each of the four corners. Five blocks up was the roof: a flat ceiling of orange glass with a perimeter of spruce planks from the walls. The floor was a simple mosaic of sorts, with four different types of wood around each corner entrance. In the centre was a four-by-four entrance into what was proposed to be the town storage, where InternetCurtains would put his things. At first, this was small and compact, but it did the job, since Purest Pines was nowhere near as large as it would be several months later, and InternetCurtains’ vision for most certainly did not include his town being a popular capital of a well-known and active nation, nor being the second-largest town in the third-largest nation on the server. The chests were countable and the walls were made cheaply of deepslate. From what was described, it may seem like this town centre was detailed, but it really wasn’t; it was incredibly simple, and not too eye-catching, either, but for InternetCurtains’ plan to make his dream humble town, it seemed alright. It actually took quite a long time for him to build this town centre despite how straightforward it was, and InternetCurtains was almost killed by a duo of hunters approaching him once while he was making it, only to be saved by a player called Peace_of_Poo who owned the town of Feces_Island_2, which took up real life Akimiski and was reasonably close to Internet’s town. This player alerted him through DMs, so InternetCurtains was able to run to a nearby nether portal just in time and wait for the hunters to disappear. The names of these two hunters have faded away in time.<br /> On the 27th of June, 2023, InternetCurtains finally managed to get 64 gold to found Purest Pines. He headed over to the clearing once again and left New Kaliningrad. <br /> This marked the start of an exceptionally extensive journey governed by InternetCurtains himself – a lengthy one filled with fallen heros, motivational loss, countless players, and so, so much more. One that InternetCurtains and so many other people will never forget, one that changed the course of a few select player’s lives, of whom most had not even touched the server yet at this point. This very moment defined so many things that can be seen all around eastern Canada, New England, Quebec and further afield.<br /> [18:12:41 NZT] [CHAT] [Towny] InternetCurtains created a new town called Purest Pines''</div>

Adding photos, history section, and notable residents soon.'''<br /> <br /> Purest Pines is a town located in the Ontarian wilderness in Canada. It has been run by InternetCurtains almost continuously throughout its two-year-long lifespan. Purest Pines is part of the nation of Cascadia, situated in Manicouagan County, however it has been a member of six other nations in the past.<br /> <br /> Purest Pines is split up into three main residential 'districts' surrounding the central Aquille District, which has been furbished and decorated extensively to give it a peaceful, natural feel. The town also contains an old replica of a Victorian-era English neighbourhood, built for a building contest; a fairly obsolete business district; rebuilt ruins of an old town; and two main areas of empty, undeveloped claims.<br /> <br /> Purest Pines borders the separate town of Ontario and is also close to Chester Port, Kings, and Treasure Town, the capital of the nation of Hudson.<br /> <br /> Throughout the course of its history, countless residents have been and gone, and the town's population peaked at 102 on 7 January 2025.<br /> <br /> == Districts ==<br /> Purest Pines is split up into six distinct districts. Some of these districts are residential, whereas others serve different purposes.<br /> <br /> === '''Aquille''' ===<br /> '' 'Accueillir' - 'to host' in French ''<br /> <br /> Aquille is located near the centre of the town. It is the oldest district in the town, and is where the town spawn building, the Third Endeavour, is located. To the north of this district is Aquille Reserve, a naturalistic park home to various memorabilia from throughout the town's history, plus town embassies. The Purest Pines CityPlace, a large, cuboidal building containing prebuilt apartments for residents and the Primary Storage for the town is located in this district as well.<br /> <br /> [[File:AquilleDistrict.webp|alt=test|500px]] ''A pathway in Aquille Reserve leading to the Chauser District.''<br /> <br /> === '''Chauser''' ===<br /> ''Named after an unknown French infinitive verb''<br /> <br /> Chauser was the second district to be made in Purest Pines. Historically, it was meant to take up a clearing on the northern side of a river between it and the Aquille District. It was built up first in late 2023 from the James Bay to the Cree Era, but InternetCurtains demolished most of the buildings in 2024 so that it could be rebuilt later. InternetCurtains retained several buildings, however, such as the Disco Tower, a skyscraper built by former resident DiscoEwe4410090, whose apartments housed the first residents in the town; Bingy Estate, a large mansion built by InternetCurtains for former comayor Bingy726; and the USSNA Perm Base, a military base deemed widely to be unsightly, built by banned player USFriskI.<br /> <br /> Reconstruction of Chauser started in December 2024 during the Second Vermont Era at the height of Purest Pines, led by InternetCurtains and Bingy726 and built with help from BuilderBoy59, Amartine60, Jazbbwtyl, Platinum201547 and Aqualicorn, all of whom were residents of the town at the time. Progress was quick, and before long, an assortment of new buildings were completed, including InternetCurtains Estate, 'The Dives', a refurbished ice rail station, headquarters for the short-lived newspaper 'Purest Papers', and more. These buildings can be found in Chauser today.<br /> <br /> [[File:ChauserDistrict.webp|alt=test|500px]] ''View of InternetCurtains Estate and Bingy Estate, with the entrance to 'The Dives' in the foreground to the right, alongside the Purest Papers headquarters behind it.''<br /> <br /> === '''Cordan''' ===<br /> ''Derived from 'Cordoba', the Argentine city''<br /> <br /> Cordan was the first residential district to be built up, done so during the Cree Era. It is located in the northwestern part of town. Its plots contain simplistic borders made of flowering azalea leaves, with narrow roads connecting them made of polished deepslate, loyal to the trademark formula that all residential areas in Purest Pines follow.<br /> <br /> Near the centre of the district is Cordan Plaza, a large, hollow building with an underground section containing an inn for residents, the Maple Tavern, an automatic music disc player, and Secondary Storage for the district. Flags of the nation of Cree are flown at the top of the building.<br /> <br /> In October 2024, shortly before the foreseen acceleration in population of the town, this district was extended to the north, containing roughly twenty new plots for residents.<br /> <br /> [[File:CordanDistrict.webp|alt=test|500px]] ''View of the older part of the district from the top of Cordan Plaza, taken on 4 October 2024.''<br /> <br /> === '''Mercer''' ===<br /> ''Mercer is just a nice name''<br /> <br /> Mercer was the second residential district to be built, found just to the east of Aquille. Its plots contain borders made of flowering azalea leaves with smooth quartz slabs on top of them. The roads are built out of stripped dark oak wood.<br /> <br /> The first three rows of the Mercer District (including the short, two-plot wide one closest to Aquille) were built first, with an extra row and outwards extensions to all rows emerging during November 2024. Overall, the Mercer District has over 50 plots, meaning that out of the three residential districts, it's able to house the most residents theoretically. However, the outer two rows have been deemed abandoned officially due to the difficulty in demolishing the voluminous plots in them and their distance from the town spawn and are upkept no longer, although Kevin484848 built an unfinished shopping centre at the edge of this edge of the district in August 2025.<br /> <br /> The 'Mercer Minipark' is located at the southern edge of the central rows, acting as a district centre similar to the Cordan Plaza and the Purest Pines CityPlace. It consists of two towers surrounded by a small park built originally by a resident called FlakeyYT.<br /> <br /> A large undeveloped but claimed area is located to the south of Mercer directly, although this is not considered to be part of the district and is reserved for later use.<br /> <br /> [[File:MercerDistrict.webp|alt=test|500px]] ''View of part of the Mercer District from the top of a tower looked over by a Project Ducc ducc built by DaMinecraftPanda.''<br /> <br /> === '''Cherry District''' ===<br /> ''No prizes for guessing where the name of the district comes from!''<br /> <br /> The Cherry District is located south of Aquille. It bears several resemblances to the Aquille District, with a naturalistic, cherry-themed forested area to the north filled with memorabilia.<br /> <br /> To the south, the Cherry District acts as a residential area, with cherry-tree-themed plot borders and roads.

It consists of two towers surrounded by a small park built originally by a resident called FlakeyYT.<br /> <br /> A large undeveloped but claimed area is located to the south of Mercer directly, although this is not considered to be part of the district and is reserved for later use.<br /> <br /> [[File:MercerDistrict.webp|alt=test|500px]] ''View of part of the Mercer District from the top of a tower looked over by a Project Ducc ducc built by DaMinecraftPanda.''<br /> <br /> === '''Cherry District''' ===<br /> ''No prizes for guessing where the name of the district comes from!''<br /> <br /> The Cherry District is located south of Aquille.

Between these two points in time, the town was griefed moderately. Henceforth, it was rebuilt by InternetCurtains and Hyerin_ye in 2025. It serves no major purpose in Purest Pines currently, other than aesthetics.<br /> <br /> [[File:MerlinDistrict.webp|alt=test|500px]] ''Sunrise in Merlin as viewed from Merlin Lake.''<br /> <br /> == History ==<br /> Purest Pines has an incredibly broad and rich history. Throughout its two years of existence, the town has manifested itself in seven separate nations, changing nations on eight occasions. Hence, its history is split up into the eight distinct ''eras'' that follow:<br /> # Canadian Era</div>

Adding photos, history section, and notable residents soon.'''<br /> <br /> Purest Pines is a town located in the Ontarian wilderness in Canada. It has been run by InternetCurtains almost continuously throughout its two-year-long lifespan. Purest Pines is part of the nation of Cascadia, situated in Manicouagan County, however it has been a member of six other nations in the past.<br /> <br /> Purest Pines is split up into three main residential 'districts' surrounding the central Aquille District, which has been furbished and decorated extensively to give it a peaceful, natural feel. The town also contains an old replica of a Victorian-era English neighbourhood, built for a building contest; a fairly obsolete business district; rebuilt ruins of an old town; and two main areas of empty, undeveloped claims.<br /> <br /> Purest Pines borders the separate town of Ontario and is also close to Chester Port, Kings, and Treasure Town, the capital of the nation of Hudson.<br /> <br /> Throughout the course of its history, countless residents have been and gone, and the town's population peaked at 102 on 7 January 2025.<br /> <br /> == Districts ==<br /> Purest Pines is split up into six distinct districts. Some of these districts are residential, whereas others serve different purposes.<br /> <br /> === '''Aquille''' ===<br /> '' 'Accueillir' - 'to host' in French ''<br /> <br /> Aquille is located near the centre of the town. It is the oldest district in the town, and is where the town spawn building, the Third Endeavour, is located. To the north of this district is Aquille Reserve, a naturalistic park home to various memorabilia from throughout the town's history, plus town embassies. The Purest Pines CityPlace, a large, cuboidal building containing prebuilt apartments for residents and the Primary Storage for the town is located in this district as well.<br /> <br /> [[File:AquilleDistrict.webp|alt=test|500px]]<br /> <br /> === '''Chauser''' ===<br /> ''Named after an unknown French infinitive verb''<br /> <br /> Chauser was the second district to be made in Purest Pines. Historically, it was meant to take up a clearing on the northern side of a river between it and the Aquille District. It was built up first in late 2023 from the James Bay to the Cree Era, but InternetCurtains demolished most of the buildings in 2024 so that it could be rebuilt later. InternetCurtains retained several buildings, however, such as the Disco Tower, a skyscraper built by former resident DiscoEwe4410090, whose apartments housed the first residents in the town; Bingy Estate, a large mansion built by InternetCurtains for former comayor Bingy726; and the USSNA Perm Base, a military base deemed widely to be unsightly, built by banned player USFriskI.<br /> <br /> Reconstruction of Chauser started in December 2024 during the Second Vermont Era at the height of Purest Pines, led by InternetCurtains and Bingy726 and built with help from BuilderBoy59, Amartine60, Jazbbwtyl, Platinum201547 and Aqualicorn, all of whom were residents of the town at the time. Progress was quick, and before long, an assortment of new buildings were completed, including InternetCurtains Estate, 'The Dives', a refurbished ice rail station, headquarters for the short-lived newspaper 'Purest Papers', and more. These buildings can be found in Chauser today. [2025-08-18_17.36.29; View of InternetCurtains Estate and Bingy Estate, with the entrance to 'The Dives' in the foreground to the right, alongside the Purest Papers headquarters behind it.]<br /> <br /> === '''Cordan''' ===<br /> ''Derived from 'Cordoba', the Argentine city''<br /> <br /> Cordan was the first residential district to be built up, done so during the Cree Era. It is located in the northwestern part of town. Its plots contain simplistic borders made of flowering azalea leaves, with narrow roads connecting them made of polished deepslate, loyal to the trademark formula that all residential areas in Purest Pines follow.<br /> <br /> Near the centre of the district is Cordan Plaza, a large, hollow building with an underground section containing an inn for residents, the Maple Tavern, an automatic music disc player, and Secondary Storage for the district. Flags of the nation of Cree are flown at the top of the building.<br /> <br /> In October 2024, shortly before the foreseen acceleration in population of the town, this district was extended to the north, containing roughly twenty new plots for residents. [2024-10-04_17.04.38; View of the older part of the district from the top of Cordan Plaza, taken on 4 October 2024.]<br /> <br /> === '''Mercer''' ===<br /> ''Mercer is just a nice name''<br /> <br /> Mercer was the second residential district to be built, found just to the east of Aquille. Its plots contain borders made of flowering azalea leaves with smooth quartz slabs on top of them. The roads are built out of stripped dark oak wood.<br /> <br /> The first three rows of the Mercer District (including the short, two-plot wide one closest to Aquille) were built first, with an extra row and outwards extensions to all rows emerging during November 2024. Overall, the Mercer District has over 50 plots, meaning that out of the three residential districts, it's able to house the most residents theoretically. However, the outer two rows have been deemed abandoned officially due to the difficulty in demolishing the voluminous plots in them and their distance from the town spawn and are upkept no longer, although Kevin484848 built an unfinished shopping centre at the edge of this edge of the district in August 2025.<br /> <br /> The 'Mercer Minipark' is located at the southern edge of the central rows, acting as a district centre similar to the Cordan Plaza and the Purest Pines CityPlace.
