'''ArcticArca''' (formerly "ArcaPlays") is a member of the EarthMC server. He isn't notable for much, as he hasn't really done anything noteworthy. Through hearing about EarthMC through [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2fwgJKet1bM SalC1's Gold Duping video on EarthMC]
, Arca joined EarthMC on February 26, 2019 at 8:31:11 PM EST.

''Note: ArcticArca was named "Sykadelical" from March 13, 2022 to April 12, 2022.''
==History==

==='''Early History'''===

====Starting out====
While ArcticArca was relaxing one day and browsing YouTube, a video appeared in his recommended section. It was the video where SalC1 duped lots of Gold in EMC. At the time, the queue didn't exist, so joining the server was no problem. After joining, he spawned in Southwest Michigan (Modern-Day Chicago) with plans to start a town in Russia. In the first hour, he built a boat and went on his way to Russia. He built a small wooden house and began to mine in order to get the required amount of gold for a town. Whenever he would log in, he would find his gold chest to be empty. After about a month of constantly losing gold, Arca got tired of it and asked to join a town. He got several invites, and accepted one at random. He accepted an invite from the town of New Lyon, located in Haiti.
[[File:Arcaspath.png|thumb|336x336px|The estimated path Arca took to get from Michigan to Russia on February 26, 2019]]

====Months of Townhopping====
Arca joined New Lyon on March 31, 2019 and learned how to teleport to a town for the first time. The town was pretty smallish in size, being maybe 10-20 chunks large. He built another wooden house on the north side of the town and was proud of being in his first town. This didn't last long however. On April 3, Arca was on a boat off the southern coast of Cuba when Fidel_Castro, mayor of La_Jagua, the capital of Cuba at the time. After talking to him, Arca was told that New Lyon was hated, because "they stole a planned towns name and the leader is very annoying and a dick to everyone", as well as " he does that to new people to make him look nice but earlier he was killing his own citizens" in response to Arca stating he received 20 diamond blocks from the mayor, IWantDie. Without much hesitation, Arca took his stuff and left New Lyon. He was now the newest resident of La Jagua, and eager to set up again. He was given a plot and he placed his stuff down and began to build a new house. It didn't take long for Arca to go inactive again. It wasn't until May 8 when he logged back on again to find that his house and all his items were gone. He got pretty angry and blamed the mayor of La Jagua for what happened and then proceeded to live off the land and was townless for another month. He joined the town of New York in order to be able to teleport wherever he need to go on June 12. He was in this town for a long time, and didn't own a plot. He would play on and off until he went inactive one more time. There was a short time that he joined Arlington for a day before leaving and wanted to join an Arab nation. He accepted the first invite he got, which was from Nubia to join El Obeid.

====Arca's Semi-Active Time in Nubia====
Arca didn't really do much in his first months in Nubia. He was just a regular insignificant player on the server. He did eventually go inactive again in January 2020. In March he realized that his data was wiped and was trying to figure something out in Nubia's discord server. He settled on repeatedly trying to wait out the queue until he joined. He finally did join... after over a month. He had to join a new town, since Twomoo was not online at the time and he was trapped in El Obeid. He asked [[gorkymoo1119]] to help, so he logged on to invite Arca to join Mersa. Arca lived in Mersa up until he made his first town. During that time though, Arca also acted as a normal citizen. He made three [https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLl_vuFjth87Pn4FLeihlW6WP-Da3eQQen videos] during his time in Mersa about EarthMC, which was also during the time of the Ethiopian Revolt. Technically meaning that Arca was Ethiopian from May 4 to May 19. Even during his time in Mersa, Arca was a very on-and-off player until Late July, when he joined the Nubian VC for the first time.

''For more info about Nyala, read it's wiki ^''

===Nubia Era===

====Founding of Nyala====
Many things happened during Arca's active era in Nubia. Most activity occurred from late July to around Late September. On July 24, 2020 in the Nubia voice chat, Arca won 64G from a Gold crate. Following this, [[Twomoo1119]] asked him if he wanted to make a town. There was initial consideration for Arca to make a proxy town for Turkana, as he and the [[StarKiller1744]], the mayor, had grown close. Arca decided to settle for an independent town instead. On July 27, 2020, Arca created his first town of [[Nyala]] just west of El Daein and East of Koukou. Over the months, Nyala would gradually begin to grow until its current size of 144 chunks, which was achieved on November 15, 2020.

====Kraftier Kontroversies====
On July 25, 2020, Arca, Star, and Nop were messing around near East Kraftier, Kraftier’s at-the-time proxy town. While they watched Daniel10a, East Kraftier’s mayor, and [[Kobikraft]], Kraftier’s mayor, one of the three fell in-between Daniel and Kobi. This triggered [[Battle of East Kraftier]]. Weeks later, Arca would also be involved with the [[Second Battle of Kraftier]] on August 16 and [[The Kraftier Raid]] on August 17. With all this controversy, Arca and Star wanted to end it and be peaceful with Sudan. On September 6, Arca and Star signed a non-aggression pact with Kobi and Super. This fell through less than a day later, as Kobi and Super broke the pact.

====Dwindling Activity====
Arca began his first month of high school entirely on Zoom amidst the Covid-19 Pandemic. However, in late September Arca began alternating between Zoom and physical school, meaning Arca started to have less time to play on EarthMC. Just prior to coming to school physically, Arca had an idea for a short project. This project was named “[https://youtu.be/uxJ6rvKSm9w The Lake Azraq Project]”, where Arca would completely drain the lake that completely surrounded El Azraq. This project lasted from September 18 to September 22, but was never actually finished by Arca. The lake seemed to have fully disappeared around November 22, 2020 by an unknown player.

===Semi-Activity Era===

====Time in Yukon====
On January 9, 2021, ArcticArca announced in the Nubia Discord Server that he was going to be leaving [[Nubia]] and will be joining [[Yukon]]. That day, he founded [[Seward]] on the Seward Peninsula in Alaska. Seward was founded on the ruins of a town called Nome. Nome was started back in December 2019 and fell on October 6, 2020. Arca rarely recruited new citizens, as he mostly focused on expanding the town and working on structures. The largest undertaking Arca made in Seward was the flattening of the Bendeleben Mountain. Inside the mountain was the ruins of a large automatic farming building, which had been destroyed to the point it didn't function anymore. Arca began to flatten this mountain in early March of 2021 and finished around mid March. Arca began moving and building houses to the top of this new plateau to create a new residential area. On March 19, 2021, Arca moved his own house over to the plateau, however this came with a negative side effect. As Arca attempted to move his 4 pet rabbits (all were spawned when mod spawning was temporarily on on Feb 19, 2021), 3 out of 4 of them died of fall damage while scaling the staircase-hill up to the plateau. The remaining rabbit was nicknamed "Sanosuke", meaning "survivor".

====Temporary Quit and New Start====
On April 16, 2021, Arca made a [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yGviB-t2HTY video] of him touring Seward. However, the start of the video had a goodbye message, where he announced he was quitting EarthMC. He had thoughts that he would come back eventually, when time permits. Eventually, he did. On May 12, Arca relogged into the server for the first time in almost a month. When Arca logged in, Seward was under new leadership and he was in a new town (this was done by a friend of his). He then began a journey by boat to a new location, where he planned to play on EMC casually rather than the stressful job of being a proper mayor. He initially waned to found the city of Hyderabad in central India, but after surveying the area and disliking the terrain he opted to stay in El Obeid until he reached 64G. After reaching that goal on May 15, he headed out to Ukraine to found Pripyat near its real-life location. He built a small house named "Pripyat House" and chilled out for a bit. He would be a part of Tzarist Ukraine for a few weeks until joining Austria on June 7.

====Return to Nubia & Fall of Seward====
On June 23, 2021, Arca disbanded Pripyat and moved into a home in Turkana. He's been living there since. Arca participated in his latest battle on August 17, 2021, named [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PfwUSRvuhGg&t=94s The Skirmish of Joe Town]. On August 19, 2021, Seward collapsed. Most of what Arca had left there was recovered by [[StarKiller1744]] and himself and was placed in his basement museum. Arca travelled to Seward and recovered the Rabbit Monument, a spire built to commemorate his 3 rabbits who died. On the same day, Arca killed Ghostyuu and displayed his armor in aforementioned museum. Two days later, Arca ventured to Seward to recover his last rabbit, Sanosuke, to bring him to Turkana. Unfortunately, while sailing in the Pacific, a boating accident occurred that led to the death of Sanosuke. Arca added Sanosuke to the Rabbit Monument shortly after, and begun a “ritual” where he would place a carrot at the foot of the spire every day he logs in.

====Holding Morogoro====
Around September 1, 2021 twomoo1119 acquired the town of Morogoro from Tanzania. After much convincing, Arca conceded and agreed to hold the town until someone else could take his place. He held this town for an extended period of time, asking every so often when a new mayor would come. Finally, on October 28 Arca had enough of waiting and tried to find someone. To his luck, VarJuice asked iamkeg if he wanted to hold the town and Keg said yes. The exchange happened and Arca returned to being a regular citizen of Turkana.

====Lured Out====
Mid-way through November, Arca was wandering around Venezuela inspecting a project he had placed there. While there, he noticed 3 random players (HDKONUK, Chauffeur1234, and Spartan1092) descending from [[New Granada]] towards his location. He reacted by teleporting to his res spawn. Shortly after, he received a PM from one of the players, HDKONUK, to come back. He did so after putting all his items in his chests. Meeting them in New Granada again, the players told him that they believed he was a citizen of the area and that they wanted to “show him something”. Arca agreed, already suspecting it was a lure. With an empty inventory and [https://youtu.be/WwazGUW6xDs camera rolling], Arca followed the three outside the capital’s claims. It took only 10 seconds of walking for HDKONUK to pull out an enchanted diamond sword and kill Arca. This was nothing but comedic to Arca, though, as he expected this and the people who killed him gained nothing from the murder.

====Rabbit Monument Controversy====
Later that month, Star messaged Arca through discord stating that something had happened with the Rabbit Monument. One of Stars friends, SirKiyo, somehow gained ownership of the plot in which the Rabbit Monument was situated. On November 26, SirKiyo demolished the original monument and told Star: “i have plans for it”. These plans turned out to be a large stone rabbit statue with a sign that simple said “RIP”. Arca was infuriated with this news. On November 30, Arca regained ownership of the plot and [https://youtu.be/b5ExRQYJP5s filmed himself] destroying it and rebuilding the Rabbit Monument. Although the blocks are no longer the original, its the idea that counts.

====Fall of Nyala====
On November 24, Caden and Arca began discussing Nyala’s fate. On November 3, Caden gave ownership of Nyala to a new player named Nickstorm1086. Since taking control, Nickstorm hadn't logged on. This led caden to try to convince Nickstorm to log on to save Nyala. After Nickstorm asked how he gives Nyala back to caden, Nickstorm blocked caden on discord. In response to this, Caden asked VarJuice to try to convince Nickstorm. A week later, on December 2, Caden told Arca that Var had been blocked by Nickstorm, meaning that all hope was lost now. Arca calculated the time that Nyala would fall, being December 16 at around 3pm EST. Arca planned to log on and save as much as he could, but was unable to as Nyala fell 9 hours earlier than calculated, at around 5-6 AM. Nyala had already by looted, likely by raiders or by Nickstorm. Arca was able to recover a few things, with one of these things being the concrete flag from Nyala’s ice road station. The flag was propped up in Turkana and serves as a monument to Nyala. Not all hope was lost, however. In early January 2022, Twomoo extended El Obeid’s claims and re-claimed Nyala as a part of El Obeid, saving it from the wilderness.

====LPZE====
Starting off the new year, Arca became slightly more active on EMC. He became more active in Nubia's Discord specifically, where Arca met a player by the name of LPZE. On January 12, 2022, after Arca replied to a screenshot of one of BigCrow_'s announcement with "SexCrow_" (A joke that Star made in 2020 while Crow was Nubian), LPZE decided to reply to Arca with "ok odd1sout fan", referencing Arca's discord profile picture of that time. LPZE decided to start throwing insults at Arca with no provocation. After a while, Arca didn't want to deal with LPZE from then on, so he blocked him on Discord. On February 19, 2022, Arca visited [[Thee Boss]]' building competition in Mersa, of which only Tai showed up to built something. While there, LPZE decided to come and visit. When he arrived, he began following Arca around. Arca immediately /ignore'd LPZE before he had a chance to say anything of meaning. When Arca had left Mersian claims by accident, LPZE (still following) came out too and began punching Arca for no reason. Due to the new claimhide plugin, Arca wasn't able to escape, and nearly died until leaving combat and making it back to Mersa. In response, Arca and Boss grabbed a weapon and lured LPZE out into wilderness. They both successfully killed him. Since then, Arca has had no further interaction with LPZE.

====Home Remodeling====
On February 26, 2022, Arca felt that his home in Turkana wasn't spacious enough. To solve this issue, Arca moved all his stuff out, destroyed the house, and began building a new one. The building was completed quickly with the help of a tutorial, as the building was completed on the same day. On Feb 27, Arca moved his stuff in and nicknamed the building "Ivory Tower". That was when Arca found out that Star had built the same building on the other side of the city months earlier. Noting that the towers were so far, and that he was actually using his tower (unlike Star), they both simply shrugged it off.

====Rebellion of Kenya====
On April 18, 2022, Starkiller1744 created the nation of Kenya to separate from Nubia. As Turkana became the capital of this new nation, Arca found himself stuck. During the time of the rebellion, Arca was on a trip in Austria and was unable to do much from there. In the time being, Arca began to plan ahead of what he should do in this new situation. Although being part of the original idea for a Kenyan rebellion back in August 2020, Arca did not want any part of the modern Kenya and wanted to continue to be a Nubian citizen. Starting on April 22, Arca began the moving process to New Mersa. He built a new home and demolished his old one, along with the Seward Rabbit Monument. With his new home being built on his old plot in Mersa, he needed a spot for his museum to be moved. Luckily, Arca already held a plot in El Obeid, and moved it there on May 10, 2022.

Arca has made a total of three towns, all in different parts of the world. None of these towns exist anymore.

{{DISPLAYTITLE:Columbus}}

'''Columbus''' was a town located in the real life location of Columbus, Ohio. The town was founded by [[ArcticArca]] on June 4, 2022 at 15:49:28 EDT. The town expanded to an unknown size, estimated to be around 100 chunks before it was disbanded.

==Before Columbus==
Before Columbus was founded, Arca was a member of Toronto, Canada from May 13 to June 4, 2022.

==History==

=== Early Days ===
The morning after Arca created Columbus, he was perm banned for 2.7 until being unbanned in the afternoon of June 5. After this, he would bring in two of his friends to be the first two residents of Columbus (Derpyboi89 and CNS). The first 8 chunks of the town were dedicated to Arca's house, CNS' house, Derp's house, farms, a mine, and a park. The town then went on to expand eastward to build an ice road station as part of the Canadian Ice Road Network. From this branch, a Chick-fil-A and a smelting building was built

On July 7, 2022 Arca changed the look of all of Columbus by removing the small roads in exchange for one chunk roads as well as flattening the town to y=78. The first road to be built was I-70 running east-west from the center of the town. branching off from this, more roads were built (refer to detailed map of Columbus). Over the next few days, a road was extended north to connect with the town of Ohio.

=== More residents ===
On July 20, Arca began inviting more residents to Columbus and amassed a total of about 10 residents. These first residents were: SlovenlyStore45, followed by Little_furry_boi. On July 22 and 23, he would invite BlueAphids, TheGusFring, ItsFluby, Christmmas, and Zachary121122. These residents were placed in the residential district in the south of the town (refer to detailed map of Columbus).

=== Decline & Deletion ===
By the time August started, Arca continued to expand the town as his residents began going inactive. Arca continued buying chunks and building roads to accommodate for more residents. He also began contruction of a new building, One Columbus Center. This building would only be partially completed, as on September 3, Arca quit EarthMC for good and deleted Columbus.

=== Post-Deletion ===
[[File:Columbus map.png|thumb|Map of Columbus with streets and buildings labeled, August 22, 2022]]
Columbus remained in the wilderness for the next 10 days. Any remaining valuables and materials in chests were stolen and buildings were damaged. On September 13, the town of Ohio (then owned by You_Go_Slavia) expanded to claim many of the buildings. After some time, the current claims of Ohio over Columbus were done and Ohio was traded from You_Go_Slavia to NFISH2021.

=== Reign of Ohio ===
Columbus was mostly left alone for much of the time Ohio had occupied the buildings. It wouldn't be until May 2023 when Ohio would begin to exercise their control over the area, destroying what was left of the 7/11 and building a white concrete building. The month after, a resident built their house north of the smelting building. By July 2023, much of former Columbus was now under threat of demolition, as many plots were labeled as "Construction" Plots.

==== List of Columbus buildings under threat of demolition ====
(As of July 3, 2023)

* One Columbus Center
* Smelting Building
* Gorky Memorial
* Columbus Welcome Center
* CNS's house
* Derp's Second House
* 7/11 (Now a white concrete building)

The map below is a visualization of these plots that are currently under threat of demolition. I will be monitoring this demolition closely.
[[File:Threat.png|none|thumb|228x228px|A map of plots currently under threat of demolition (July 3, 2023)]]

=== Post-Ohio ===
In November 2023, Ohio unclaimed all the land formerly named Columbus, likely as a result of the Overclaim Update. As of January 2024, the neighboring town of TerraCorp has begun to expand into Columbus. So far, it's only expanded into Ohio Lane and all buildings are still intact.

== Future Plans ==
Prior to deletion, Arca had plans for what he wanted Columbus to look like, which included future streets and buildings. Obviously, these plans fell short. These plans were created on July 8, 2022, and were estimated to be completed by November 2022, had the town continued. Below are the plans.

==Before Columbus==
Before Columbus was founded, Arca was a member of Toronto, Canada from May 13 to June 4, 2022.

==History==

=== Early Days ===
The morning after Arca created Columbus, he was perm banned for 2.7 until being unbanned in the afternoon of June 5. After this, he would bring in two of his friends to be the first two residents of Columbus (Derpyboi89 and CNS). The first 8 chunks of the town were dedicated to Arca's house, CNS' house, Derp's house, farms, a mine, and a park. The town then went on to expand eastward to build an ice road station as part of the Canadian Ice Road Network. From this branch, a Chick-fil-A and a smelting building was built

In November 2023, Ohio unclaimed all the land formerly named Columbus, likely as a result of the Overclaim Update. As of January 2024, the neighboring town of TerraCorp has begun to expand into Columbus. So far, it's only expanded into Ohio Lane and all buildings are still intact.

== Future Plans ==
Prior to deletion, Arca had plans for what he wanted Columbus to look like, which included future streets and buildings. Obviously, these plans fell short. These plans were created on July 8, 2022, and were estimated to be completed by November 2022, had the town continued. Below are the plans.

{{DISPLAYTITLE:Columbus}}

'''Columbus''' was a town located in the real life location of Columbus, Ohio. The town was founded by [[ArcticArca]] on June 4, 2022 at 15:49:28 EDT. The town expanded to an unknown size, estimated to be around 100 chunks before it was disbanded.

==Before Columbus==
Before Columbus was founded, Arca was a member of Toronto, Canada from May 13 to June 4, 2022.

==History==

=== Early Days ===
The morning after Arca created Columbus, he was perm banned for 2.7 until being unbanned in the afternoon of June 5. After this, he would bring in two of his friends to be the first two residents of Columbus (Derpyboi89 and CNS). The first 8 chunks of the town were dedicated to Arca's house, CNS' house, Derp's house, farms, a mine, and a park. The town then went on to expand eastward to build an ice road station as part of the Canadian Ice Road Network. From this branch, a Chick-fil-A and a smelting building was built

=== Remodeling ===
On July 7, 2022 Arca changed the look of all of Columbus by removing the small roads in exchange for one chunk roads as well as flattening the town to y=78. The first road to be built was I-70 running east-west from the center of the town. branching off from this, more roads were built (refer to detailed map of Columbus). Over the next few days, a road was extended north to connect with the town of Ohio.

=== More residents ===
On July 20, Arca began inviting more residents to Columbus and amassed a total of about 10 residents. These first residents were: SlovenlyStore45, followed by Little_furry_boi. On July 22 and 23, he would invite BlueAphids, TheGusFring, ItsFluby, Christmmas, and Zachary121122. These residents were placed in the residential district in the south of the town (refer to detailed map of Columbus).

=== Decline & Deletion ===
By the time August started, Arca continued to expand the town as his residents began going inactive. Arca continued buying chunks and building roads to accommodate for more residents. He also began contruction of a new building, One Columbus Center. This building would only be partially completed, as on September 3, Arca quit EarthMC for good and deleted Columbus.

=== Post-Deletion ===
[[File:Columbus map.png|thumb|Map of Columbus with streets and buildings labeled, ]]
Columbus remained in the wilderness for the next 10 days. Any remaining valuables and materials in chests were stolen and buildings were damaged. On September 13, the town of Ohio (then owned by You_Go_Slavia) expanded to claim many of the buildings. After some time, the current claims of Ohio over Columbus were done and Ohio was traded from You_Go_Slavia to NFISH2021.

=== Reign of Ohio ===
Columbus was mostly left alone for much of the time Ohio had occupied the buildings. It wouldn't be until May 2023 when Ohio would begin to exercise their control over the area, destroying what was left of the 7/11 and building a white concrete building. The month after, a resident built their house north of the smelting building. By July 2023, much of former Columbus was now under threat of demolition, as many plots were labeled as "Construction" Plots.

==== List of Columbus buildings under threat of demolition ====
(As of July 3, 2023)

* One Columbus Center
* Smelting Building
* Gorky Memorial
* Columbus Welcome Center
* CNS's house
* Derp's Second House
* 7/11 (Now a white concrete building)

The map to the right is a visualization of these plots that are currently under threat of demolition. I will be monitoring this demolition closely.

'''Columbus''' was a town located in the real life location of Columbus, Ohio. The town was founded by [[ArcticArca]] on June 4, 2022 at 15:49:28 EDT. The town expanded to an unknown size, estimated to be around 100 chunks before it was disbanded.

==Before Columbus==
Before Columbus was founded, Arca was a member of Toronto, Canada from May 13 to June 4, 2022.

==History==

=== Early Days ===
The morning after Arca created Columbus, he was perm banned for 2.7 until being unbanned in the afternoon of June 5. After this, he would bring in two of his friends to be the first two residents of Columbus (Derpyboi89 and CNS). The first 8 chunks of the town were dedicated to Arca's house, CNS' house, Derp's house, farms, a mine, and a park. The town then went on to expand eastward to build an ice road station as part of the Canadian Ice Road Network. From this branch, a Chick-fil-A and a smelting building was built

=== Remodeling ===
On July 7, 2022 Arca changed the look of all of Columbus by removing the small roads in exchange for one chunk roads as well as flattening the town to y=78. The first road to be built was I-70 running east-west from the center of the town. branching off from this, more roads were built (refer to detailed map of Columbus). Over the next few days, a road was extended north to connect with the town of Ohio.

=== More residents ===
On July 20, Arca began inviting more residents to Columbus and amassed a total of about 10 residents. These first residents were: SlovenlyStore45, followed by Little_furry_boi. On July 22 and 23, he would invite BlueAphids, TheGusFring, ItsFluby, Christmmas, and Zachary121122. These residents were placed in the residential district in the south of the town (refer to detailed map of Columbus).

=== Decline & Deletion ===
By the time August started, Arca continued to expand the town as his residents began going inactive. Arca continued buying chunks and building roads to accommodate for more residents. He also began contruction of a new building, One Columbus Center. This building would only be partially completed, as on September 3, Arca quit EarthMC for good and deleted Columbus.

=== Post-Deletion ===
[[File:Columbus map.png|thumb|Map of Columbus with streets and buildings labeled, ]]
Columbus remained in the wilderness for the next 10 days. Any remaining valuables and materials in chests were stolen and buildings were damaged. On September 13, the town of Ohio (then owned by You_Go_Slavia) expanded to claim many of the buildings. After some time, the current claims of Ohio over Columbus were done and Ohio was traded from You_Go_Slavia to NFISH2021.

=== Reign of Ohio ===
Columbus was mostly left alone for much of the time Ohio had occupied the buildings. It wouldn't be until May 2023 when Ohio would begin to exercise their control over the area, destrying what was left of the 7/11 and building a white concrete building. The month after, a resident built their house north of the smelting building. By July 2023, much of former Columbus was now under threat of demolition, as many plots were labelled as "Construction" Plots.

==== List of Columbus buildings under threat of demolition ====
(As of July 3, 2023)

* One Columbus Center
* Smelting Building
* Columbus Welcome Center
* CNS's house
* Derp's Second House
* 7/11 (Now a white concrete building)

The map to the right is a visualization of these plots that are currently under threat of demolition. I will be monitoring this demolition closely.
[[File:Threat.png|thumb|228x228px|A map of plots currently under threat of demolition (July 3, 2023)]]

== Future Plans ==
Prior to deletion, Arca had plans for what he wanted Columbus to look like, which included future streets and buildings. Obviously, these plans fell short. These plans were created on July 8, 2022, and were estimated to be completed by November 2022, had the town continued. Below are the plans.

'''ArcticArca''' (formerly '''ArcaPlays''') is a member of the EarthMC server. He isn't notable for much, as he hasn't really done anything noteworthy. By hearing about EarthMC through [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2fwgJKet1bM SalC1's Gold Duping video on EarthMC] , Arca joined EarthMC on February 26, 2019 at 20:31:11 EST. He officially quit EMC on September 4, 2022.
==History==
===Canada Era===
====Starting in Aurora====
Arca, along with the majority of players, joined Terra Aurora on the day it opened (May 13, 2022). Arca joined Twomoo's town, Toronto, in Canada. The first event Arca participated in on Aurora was the journey to the town of Fox on May 16, 2022. Twomoo, Arca, and a handful of others travelled through the nether from Toronto to reach Fox, as the town had been visited by unwanted Californians. The only Californian that was present when they arrived, OriginalDogster, was killed nearly instantly. Shortly after, the group travelled through the Nether to reach Salem, OD's town, and killed him again. This caused Cubs to step in and kill every single Canadian.
====First Town====
On June 4, 2022, Arca decided to create his own town. He headed out to central Ohio and created the town of [[Columbus]] at 15:49:28 EDT.
====Banned from EarthMC====
On June 5, 2022, Arca logged on to find out that he had been permanently banned for violating rule 2.7 (Sharing personal information). He was specifically banned for posting photos of a controversial player in Nubia's discord server. Arca was able to refute the claims made against him and was unbanned at 19:28 EDT the same day.[[File:Banned.png|thumb|ArcticArca's ban message on June 5]]
===Niagara Era===
====Town Expansion====
On June 15,Arca was elected the Minister of Transport for Canada. Arca would connect 5 towns via iceroad before going on vacation for a week. Upon returning, he was instructed to join [[Niagara]]. Columbus would continue to expand until Arca had new plans for Columbus. He flattened the entire town to a set y level and built roads based off Michigan's. The main road in his town would end up being Interstate 70, with the second, perpendicular road, being Interstate 71. Currently, I-70 is planned to go east to Pittsburgh and as far west as possible. I-71 is planned to connect Columbus with Cincinnati and New Albany. Another road is also planned to connect Columbus and Ohio by road.
====France Drop Party Incident====
On July 16, 2022, France advertised drop party that would be starting soon. Intrigued, Arca went to France. The drop party seemed normal at first, up until Tamar__ led the group into a long hallway. At that moment, he flicked a lever and opened the floor of the hallway, revealing a long drop into stalagmites. Instinctively, Arca disconnected from the server mid-fall, and when he logged back on, he gracefully fell onto the ground with no damage. He scavenged the corpses of his fallen drop party members and managed to pick up 25 gold and a god shovel, among other items. Based on server logs, 10 players were estimated to have perished to the stalagmites, with Arca being one of the 3-4 survivors.
====First Residents====
On July 20,Arca began to invite residents to his town to raise the claim limit on his town. The first non-friend resident to join Columbus was SlovenlyStore45, followed by Little_furry_boi. On July 22 and 23, he would invite BlueAphids, TheGusFring, ItsFluby, Christmmas, and Zachary121122. Along with Arca and his friends, this would be the first 10 residents of Columbus.
====Brief return to Canada====
On July 22, Arca left Niagara and rejoined Canada. He would stay this way until August 17, when Arca left Canada for the last time to join the United States
===The End===
On September 3, Arca finally made the decision after a long time of inactivity and boredom with the server. He liquidated as many valuables as he could and was able to get 105g. He then put the 105g and 6 mending gold tools (worth about 90g) into a chest located near the real-life town of Santee, Nebraska. 3 players went on the hunt to find the chest, with Heirevel beating out the other two and claiming the gold and tools for himself. Shortly after announcing he was quitting, he deleted Columbus. Later on, he sold his last valuable, a head of Florida, to the mayor of Miami for 25g, and then sold 4 emeralds he found for another 2g. On September 4, he told the chat whoever guessed a number he was thinking of between 1 and 50, they would win his last 27g. After a few minutes, ConsularScobz guessed 40 first and won. Because Arca couldnt teleport, they met at Spain's spawn he gave Scobz his prize. He then announced he was quitting and logged off for the last time. A few weeks later in mid September, You_Go_Slavia, mayor of Ohio, claimed the main buildings of Columbus, preserving them in their current state.
==Interstate Highway System==
In June, Arca planned a bunch of roads to go through the Ohio/Indiana area to become a mini Interstate Highway System.
===Interstate 69===
Interstate 69 officially does not exist. Unofficially, the east end is at the border of Detroit, Michigan and Sarnia, Canada. I-69 then travels westward until reaching central Grand Rapids, Michigan. It then turns southward to connect to Fort Wayne, Michigan and currently ends there. In the near future, I-69 will branch off of the future west end of I-71, extending north from New Albany, Niagara, and meeting the existing unofficial portion in Fort Wayne.
===Interstate 70===
Interstate 70, following its real life location, goes east to west through the center of Columbus. As of July 31, 2022, I-70 is primarily located in Columbus, with a portion of it extending into Pittsburgh, United States.
===Interstate 71===
Interstate 71 begins in the center of Columbus, branching off of I-70. It travels south and turns to the west to connect to I-71 in Cincinnati. As of July 31, 2022, this is where it ends. In the near future, New Albany, Niagara is planned to be the south end of I-71.
===Interstate 75===
Interstate 75 was the first highway to begin contruction, being created by lrister24 (now MargaritaMan) in mid June. As of July 31, 2022, The highway officially extends from Cincinnati into Detroit. Unofficially, I-75 extends north through Detroit and has its north end in NorthBerry, Michigan. The portion between Cincinnati and Detroit is currently unfinished.
===Interstate 77===
Interstate 77 is a hypothetical highway with no concrete plans. As of July 31, 2022, I-77's north end is in Pittsburgh, United States. The currents plans state the highway to continue southward, with no planned south end yet. It's possible the highway will connect to an existing highway system that currently ends in western North Carolina.

'''Seward''' (pronounced "'''soo-urd'''") was a Yukonian town founded and owned by [[ArcaPlays]] after leaving [[Nubia]] on January 9, 2021. The town is geographically located on the Seward Peninsula of Alaska, where the name of the town came from.

== History ==
''This section covers the history of Seward, including the previous town which existed prior.''

''Also, please note that much of the history is unknown, as very little to nothing was written down during the previous town's existence.''

=== '''The Very Start''' ===
The history of the area which is now known as Seward started back on December 29, 2019 when a player name ii_Lion logged onto EarthMC for the first time. Not long after, Lion created a town called "Nome" in the IRL location of Nome, Alaska as a part of Kodiak. Very little is currently known about what went on during the time that Nome existed.

=== '''Fall of Nome''' ===
On August 24, 2020, ii_Lion logged off for the last time and never came on again. Nome would fall on October 6, 2020 after Lion's 42 day countdown finished. 2 months later on December 2, a former resident logged onto EMC and found Nome to be gone. He left a plaque in one of the houses, which was found by Arca when he first walked through the area. The plaque was moved next to the spawn. The plague stated that Nome had fallen and that the writer had built the docks of modern-day Seward. After Seward's fall, a player came in and removed the signs of the plaque.

=== '''Founding of Seward''' ===
Prior to the founding, Arca was the mayor of a Nubian town. He was a part of Nubia for a very long time until he made the decision to leave Nubia for unstated reasons. After scouting for a location for a new town near west Alaska, he found an abandoned town on the Seward Peninsula that he found favorable. He shortly after gave his town to someone in order to hold it, and then founded Seward and claimed a lot of the former town. At the time of founding, little to nothing was known about the area's history.

=== The Beginning of the End ===
On April 16 Arca temporarily quit EMC and would've needed to log on every now and then to keep Seward Alive. Near the start of May, a friend handled Arca's account and handed over Seward to a new mayor. Since then, Seward has changed hands a few times. As of writing, the last two citizens of Seward are approaching their player-data-wipe day. As kikkoman3 is automatically given mayor after Coffequx goes offline, the town's final countdown will begin. Once the town falls, as many artifacts that [[ArcaPlays]] left will be recovered and placed back in his hands.

=== The End ===
On August 19, 2021 Seward Collapsed. Its unknown whether somebody came through and looted a little but, but Starkiller1744 managed to recover as many items as he could and gave them to Arca. Not every item was recovered, as its believed someone came in before Star. The recovered items have been placed in Arca's basement museum at his house in Turkana. Besides items, Arca disassembled his Rabbit monument, as well as a grave of a Kraftier resident Arca and Star killed in July 2020, and placed it in Turkana, At the time, only 3 out of 4 of his rabbits had died. On August 21, 2021 the final rabbit, Sanosuke, drowned in the Pacific Ocean ([https://earthmc.net/map/?worldname=earth&mapname=flat&zoom=7&x=-20686&y=64&z=-1870 -20686, -1870]). Sanosuke was added to the rabbit monument. The remains of Sanosuke and the other rabbits are stored under the monument and in the museum basement.

== (Former) Plans of the Future ==
In the future, its been planned to make Seward the largest westernmost town on EMC. With plans to have a large residential area, as well as a large industrial sector in order to set up the future. The town is set to expand mostly west until it hits the coast of the southwest of the peninsula, as well as north for more residential space. Large sections of the mountain cutting the town in half were flattened down to y95 in order to place houses in what is called "High Residential" with more flatting to the east coming soon. An area for manual and automatic farming is almost completed as of writing to the east of the storage building. A shopping district is planned to be south of this, with shops of different kinds to mostly cater to the current and future residents of the town.

{{DISPLAYTITLE:Columbus}}

'''Columbus''' was a town located in the real life location of Columbus, Ohio. The town was founded by [[ArcticArca]] on June 4, 2022 at 15:49:28 EDT. The town expanded to an unknown size, estimated to be around 100 chunks before it was disbanded.

==Before Columbus==
Before Columbus was founded, Arca was a member of Toronto, Canada from May 13 to June 4, 2022.

==History==

=== Early Days ===
The morning after Arca created Columbus, he was perm banned for 2.7 until being unbanned in the afternoon of June 5. After this, he would bring in two of his friends to be the first two residents of Columbus (Derpyboi89 and CNS). The first 8 chunks of the town were dedicated to Arca's house, CNS' house, Derp's house, farms, a mine, and a park. The town then went on to expand eastward to build an ice road station as part of the Canadian Ice Road Network. From this branch, a Chick-fil-A and a smelting building was built

=== Remodeling ===
On July 7, 2022 Arca changed the look of all of Columbus by removing the small roads in exchange for one chunk roads as well as flattening the town to y=78. The first road to be built was I-70 running east-west from the center of the town. branching off from this, more roads were built (refer to detailed map of Columbus). Over the next few days, a road was extended north to connect with the town of Ohio.

=== More residents ===
On July 20, Arca began inviting more residents to Columbus and amassed a total of about 10 residents. These first residents were: SlovenlyStore45, followed by Little_furry_boi. On July 22 and 23, he would invite BlueAphids, TheGusFring, ItsFluby, Christmmas, and Zachary121122. These residents were placed in the residential district in the south of the town (refer to detailed map of Columbus).

=== Decline & Deletion ===
By the time August started, Arca continued to expand the town as his residents began going inactive. Arca continued buying chunks and building roads to accommodate for more residents. He also began contruction of a new building, One Columbus Center. This building would only be partially completed, as on September 3, Arca quit EarthMC for good and deleted Columbus.

=== Post-Deletion ===
[[File:Columbus map.png|thumb|Map of Columbus with streets and buildings labeled, ]]
Columbus remained in the wilderness for the next 10 days. Any remaining valuables and materials in chests were stolen and buildings were damaged. On September 13, the town of Ohio (then owned by You_Go_Slavia) expanded to claim many of the buildings. After some time, the current claims of Ohio over Columbus were done and Ohio was traded from You_Go_Slavia to NFISH2021.

== Future Plans ==
Prior to deletion, Arca had plans for what he wanted Columbus to look like, which included future streets and buildings. Obviously, these plans fell short. These plans were created on July 8, 2022, and were estimated to be completed by November 2022, had the town continued. Below are the plans.

'''Columbus''' was a town located in the real life location of Columbus, Ohio. The town was founded by [[ArcticArca]] on June 4, 2022 at 15:49:28 EDT. The town expanded to an unknown size, estimated to be around 100 chunks before it was disbanded.

==Before Columbus==
Before Columbus was founded, Arca was a member of Toronto, Canada from May 13 to June 4, 2022.

==History==

=== Early Days ===
The morning after Arca created Columbus, he was perm banned for 2.7 until being unbanned in the afternoon of June 5. After this, he would bring in two of his friends to be the first two residents of Columbus (Derpyboi89 and CNS). The first 8 chunks of the town were dedicated to Arca's house, CNS' house, Derp's house, farms, a mine, and a park. The town then went on to expand eastward to build an ice road station as part of the Canadian Ice Road Network. From this branch, a Chick-fil-A and a smelting building was built

=== Remodeling ===
On July 7, 2022 Arca changed the look of all of Columbus by removing the small roads in exchange for one chunk roads as well as flattening the town to y=78. The first road to be built was I-70 running east-west from the center of the town. branching off from this, more roads were built (refer to detailed map of Columbus). Over the next few days, a road was extended north to connect with the town of Ohio.

=== More residents ===
On July 20, Arca began inviting more residents to Columbus and amassed a total of about 10 residents. These first residents were: SlovenlyStore45, followed by Little_furry_boi. On July 22 and 23, he would invite BlueAphids, TheGusFring, ItsFluby, Christmmas, and Zachary121122. These residents were placed in the residential district in the south of the town (refer to detailed map of Columbus).

=== Decline & Deletion ===
By the time August started, Arca continued to expand the town as his residents began going inactive. Arca continued buying chunks and building roads to accommodate for more residents. He also began contruction of a new building, One Columbus Center. This building would only be partially completed, as on September 3, Arca quit EarthMC for good and deleted Columbus.

=== Post-Deletion ===
[[File:Columbus map.png|thumb|Map of Columbus with streets and buildings labeled, ]]
Columbus remained in the wilderness for the next 10 days. Any remaining valuables and materials in chests were stolen and buildings were damaged. On September 13, the town of Ohio (then owned by You_Go_Slavia) expanded to claim many of the buildings. After some time, the current claims of Ohio over Columbus were done and Ohio was traded from You_Go_Slavia to NFISH2021.

== Future Plans ==
Prior to deletion, Arca had plans for what he wanted Columbus to look like, which included future streets and buildings. Obviously, these plans fell short. These plans were created on July 8, 2022, and were estimated to be completed by November 2022, had the town continued. Below are the plans.

==Before Columbus==
Before Columbus was founded, Arca was a member of Toronto, Canada from May 13 to June 4, 2022.

==History==

=== Early Days ===
The morning after Arca created Columbus, he was perm banned for 2.7 until being unbanned in the afternoon of June 5. After this, he would bring in two of his friends to be the first two residents of Columbus (Derpyboi89 and CNS). The first 8 chunks of the town were dedicated to Arca's house, CNS' house, Derp's house, farms, a mine, and a park. The town then went on to expand eastward to build an ice road station as part of the Canadian Ice Road Network. From this branch, a Chick-fil-A and a smelting building was built

=== Remodeling ===
On July 7, 2022 Arca changed the look of all of Columbus by removing the small roads in exchange for one chunk roads as well as flattening the town to y=78. The first road to be built was I-70 running east-west from the center of the town. branching off from this, more roads were built (refer to detailed map of Columbus). Over the next few days, a road was extended north to connect with the town of Ohio.

=== More residents ===
On July 20, Arca began inviting more residents to Columbus and amassed a total of about 10 residents. These first residents were: SlovenlyStore45, followed by Little_furry_boi. On July 22 and 23, he would invite BlueAphids, TheGusFring, ItsFluby, Christmmas, and Zachary121122. These residents were placed in the residential district in the south of the town (refer to detailed map of Columbus).

=== Decline & Deletion ===
By the time August started, Arca continued to expand the town as his residents began going inactive. Arca continued buying chunks and building roads to accommodate for more residents. He also began contruction of a new building, One Columbus Center. This building would only be partially completed, as on September 3, Arca quit EarthMC for good and deleted Columbus.

=== Post-Deletion ===
[[File:Columbus map.png|thumb|Map of Columbus with streets and buildings labeled, ]]
Columbus remained in the wilderness for the next 10 days. Any remaining valuables and materials in chests were stolen and buildings were damaged. On September 13, the town of Ohio (then owned by You_Go_Slavia) expanded to claim many of the buildings. After some time, the current claims of Ohio over Columbus were done and Ohio was traded from You_Go_Slavia to NFISH2021.

'''ArcticArca''' (formerly '''ArcaPlays''') is a member of the EarthMC server. He isn't notable for much, as he hasn't really done anything noteworthy. By hearing about EarthMC through [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2fwgJKet1bM SalC1's Gold Duping video on EarthMC] , Arca joined EarthMC on February 26, 2019 at 20:31:11 EST. He officially quit EMC on September 4, 2022.
==History==
===Canada Era===
====Starting in Aurora====
Arca, along with the majority of players, joined Terra Aurora on the day it opened (May 13, 2022). Arca joined Twomoo's town, Toronto, in Canada. The first event Arca participated in on Aurora was the journey to the town of Fox on May 16, 2022. Twomoo, Arca, and a handful of others travelled through the nether from Toronto to reach Fox, as the town had been visited by unwanted Californians. The only Californian that was present when they arrived, OriginalDogster, was killed nearly instantly. Shortly after, the group travelled through the Nether to reach Salem, OD's town, and killed him again. This caused Cubs to step in and kill every single Canadian.
====First Town====
On June 4, 2022, Arca decided to create his own town. He headed out to central Ohio and created the town of [[Columbus]] at 15:49:28 EDT.
====Banned from EarthMC====
On June 5, 2022, Arca logged on to find out that he had been permanently banned for violating rule 2.7 (Sharing personal information). He was specifically banned for posting photos of a controversial player in Nubia's discord server. Arca was able to refute the claims made against him and was unbanned at 19:28 EDT the same day.[[File:Banned.png|thumb|ArcticArca's ban message on June 5]]
===Niagara Era===
====Town Expansion====
On June 15,Arca was elected the Minister of Transport for Canada. Arca would connect 5 towns via iceroad before going on vacation for a week. Upon returning, he was instructed to join [[Niagara]]. Columbus would continue to expand until Arca had new plans for Columbus. He flattened the entire town to a set y level and built roads based off Michigan's. The main road in his town would end up being Interstate 70, with the second, perpendicular road, being Interstate 71. Currently, I-70 is planned to go east to Pittsburgh and as far west as possible. I-71 is planned to connect Columbus with Cincinnati and New Albany. Another road is also planned to connect Columbus and Ohio by road.
====France Drop Party Incident====
On July 16, 2022, France advertised drop party that would be starting soon. Intrigued, Arca went to France. The drop party seemed normal at first, up until Tamar__ led the group into a long hallway. At that moment, he flicked a lever and opened the floor of the hallway, revealing a long drop into stalagmites. Instinctively, Arca disconnected from the server mid-fall, and when he logged back on, he gracefully fell onto the ground with no damage. He scavenged the corpses of his fallen drop party members and managed to pick up 25 gold and a god shovel, among other items. Based on server logs, 10 players were estimated to have perished to the stalagmites, with Arca being one of the 3-4 survivors.
====First Residents====
On July 20,Arca began to invite residents to his town to raise the claim limit on his town. The first non-friend resident to join Columbus was SlovenlyStore45, followed by Little_furry_boi. On July 22 and 23, he would invite BlueAphids, TheGusFring, ItsFluby, Christmmas, and Zachary121122. Along with Arca and his friends, this would be the first 10 residents of Columbus.
====Brief return to Canada====
On July 22, Arca left Niagara and rejoined Canada. He would stay this way until August 17, when Arca left Canada for the last time to join the United States
===The End===
On September 3, Arca finally made the decision after a long time of inactivity and boredom with the server. He liquidated as many valuables as he could and was able to get 105g. He then put the 105g and 6 mending gold tools (worth about 90g) into a chest located near the real-life town of Santee, Nebraska. 3 players went on the hunt to find the chest, with Heirevel beating out the other two and claiming the gold and tools for himself. Shortly after announcing he was quitting, he deleted Columbus. Later on, he sold his last valuable, a head of Florida, to the mayor of Miami for 25g, and then sold 4 emeralds he found for another 2g. On September 4, he told the chat whoever guessed a number he was thinking of between 1 and 50, they would win his last 27g. After a few minutes, ConsularScobz guessed 40 first and won. Because Arca couldnt teleport, they met at Spain's spawn he gave Scobz his prize. He then announced he was quitting and logged off for the last time. A few weeks later in mid September, You_Go_Slavia, mayor of Ohio, claimed the main buildings of Columbus, preserving them in their current state.
==Interstate Highway System==
In June, Arca planned a bunch of roads to go through the Ohio/Indiana area to become a mini Interstate Highway System.
===Interstate 69===
Interstate 69 officially does not exist. Unofficially, the east end is at the border of Detroit, Michigan and Sarnia, Canada. I-69 then travels westward until reaching central Grand Rapids, Michigan. It then turns southward to connect to Fort Wayne, Michigan and currently ends there. In the near future, I-69 will branch off of the future west end of I-71, extending north from New Albany, Niagara, and meeting the existing unofficial portion in Fort Wayne.
===Interstate 70===
Interstate 70, following its real life location, goes east to west through the center of Columbus. As of July 31, 2022, I-70 is primarily located in Columbus, with a portion of it extending into Pittsburgh, United States.
===Interstate 71===
Interstate 71 begins in the center of Columbus, branching off of I-70. It travels south and turns to the west to connect to I-71 in Cincinnati. As of July 31, 2022, this is where it ends. In the near future, New Albany, Niagara is planned to be the south end of I-71.
===Interstate 75===
Interstate 75 was the first highway to begin contruction, being created by lrister24 (now MargaritaMan) in mid June. As of July 31, 2022, The highway officially extends from Cincinnati into Detroit. Unofficially, I-75 extends north through Detroit and has its north end in NorthBerry, Michigan. The portion between Cincinnati and Detroit is currently unfinished.
===Interstate 77===
Interstate 77 is a hypothetical highway with no concrete plans. As of July 31, 2022, I-77's north end is in Pittsburgh, United States. The currents plans state the highway to continue southward, with no planned south end yet. It's possible the highway will connect to an existing highway system that currently ends in western North Carolina.

'''Columbus''' was a town located in the real life location of Columbus, Ohio. The town was founded by [[ArcticArca]] on June 4, 2022 at 15:49:28 EDT. The town expanded to an unknown size, estimated to be around 100 chunks before it was disbanded.

==Before Columbus==
Before Columbus was founded, Arca was a member of Toronto, Canada from May 13 to June 4, 2022.

==History==

=== Early Days ===
The morning after Arca created Columbus, he was perm banned for 2.7 until being unbanned in the afternoon of June 5. After this, he would bring in two of his friends to be the first two residents of Columbus (Derpyboi89 and CNS). The first 8 chunks of the town were dedicated to Arca's house, CNS' house, Derp's house, farms, a mine, and a park. The town then went on to expand eastward to build an ice road station as part of the Canadian Ice Road Network. From this branch, a Chick-fil-A and a smelting building was built

=== Remodeling ===
On July 7, 2022 Arca changed the look of all of Columbus by removing the small roads in exchange for one chunk roads as well as flattening the town to y=78. The first road to be built was I-70 running east-west from the center of the town. branching off from this, more roads were built (refer to detailed map of Columbus). Over the next few days, a road was extended north to connect with the town of Ohio.

=== More residents ===
On July 20, Arca began inviting more residents to Columbus and amassed a total of about 10 residents. These first residents were: SlovenlyStore45, followed by Little_furry_boi. On July 22 and 23, he would invite BlueAphids, TheGusFring, ItsFluby, Christmmas, and Zachary121122. These residents were placed in the residential district in the south of the town (refer to detailed map of Columbus).

=== Decline & Deletion ===
By the time August started, Arca continued to expand the town as his residents began going inactive. Arca continued buying chunks and building roads to accommodate for more residents. He also began contruction of a new building, One Columbus Center. This building would only be partially completed, as on September 3, Arca quit EarthMC for good and deleted Columbus.

=== Post-Deletion ===

Columbus remained in the wilderness for the next 10 days. Any remaining valuables and materials in chests were stolen and buildings were damaged. On September 13, the town of Ohio (then owned by You_Go_Slavia) expanded to claim many of the buildings. After some time, the current claims of Ohio over Columbus were done and Ohio was traded from You_Go_Slavia to NFISH2021.
