Aurora:Emerald: Difference between revisions

=== Creation and Early Days ===

This was on April Fools Day 2025, i.e. 1 April 2025. On that day itself, he was funded both the town and 8 more chunks for it.

Soon he began making a sugarcane farm, after meeting JimplayzMC, the mayor of SigmaIsland (now Walrus_Isle, the capital of JimplayzMC's owned, self-made nation, Bering_Sea) in nation chat, he hired him. He also met [[8set]] (now the leader of North Alaska/the North Pacific Empire, a renamed Mckinley, which was purchased by Addychi01 and given to kittyco106/BlizzardCyclone/Taconyte from Hashbrown_922 for ~700g) at the town, who humorously accidentally left claims with almost 600g in his inventory at Emerald. xHydre, a NWT/Mackenzie traitor who had joined Alaska with his town (Castle_John and Fort_Nina), once killed Addychi01, stealing 22 gold while the latter was taking obsidian from a portal near Emerald. Addychi01's items were taken ransom by xHydre, telling Addychi01 to join [[Alaska (Aurora)|Alaska]]. AloofJuice attempted to contact [[Alaska (Aurora)|Alaska]] about this, with no response from their government, whose monarchs were on vacation, with a suspended democracy.

Also meeting real_vgi (Governor of the District of Klaudia/Regional District of Aduna, who later quit and formed his own Earth-based map server, named GlobeMC, development is currently on hold due to certain issues though) and SirBeehasknees (a person Addychi01 later met again after he 42dayed, and talked to on Discord, bonding over real-life similarities) in the nation chat while they were building a casino at real_vgi's town, Aduna, he joined the Aduna regional authority, as he did not fully understand the politics of his nation yet, keeping the flag displayed. JimplayzMC constructed 6 more sugarcane farms, each farm was one chunk wide and 4 units tall. After consulting StinkyAnson of Manifest_Destiny, Addychi01 was told to make an iron farm, but finding that expensive, he opted for a kelp farm design from the same. He constructed one one chunk wide and 1 unit tall kelp farm to produce bonemeal. JimplayzMC again made another one of it, but the farm remained non-functional for a few months due to a design flaw. Alongside, JimplayzMC designed the town spawn hut.  

=== Expansion ===

After meeting not_teav, a hunter outlawed from Denali at a shop, Addychi01 and he became friends. Addychi01 gave him an Embassy plot at his town to build, which not_teav used to like better than hunting in those days. The town storage back then was simply a few double chests on the floor. Shortly after, a few Nubian leaders and others, including NebulaNomad56, [[twomoo1119]], MrPickle26 and more came across the town and began griefing it. Forced to work with his friends, JimplayzMC acted as if he was griefing the town and pretended to loot the chests, calling Addychi01 broke to his friends. JimplayzMC recorded the incident and sent it to Addychi01 on Discord, moreover, not_teav's embassy was destroyed. not_teav and JimplayzMC accused each other of involvement in the grief. Most of the griefers were outlawed from the town. Due to not knowing the grief rollback features, JimplayzMC, Addychi01 and not_teav fixed the town themselves, as each had /t trust there. The ground near the non-functional smelter is still made of netherrack till this day. This happened due to explosions being on in the town, as Addychi01 was terraforming the 9-chunk land. They utilised TNT cannons for the grief.

Requiring money, Addychi01 turned to the recruiting challenges [[8set]] offered, earning a lot of money alongside FellowEsin, the mayor of Turingworld. The first resident at Emerald was The_Game_Genius, the second was kskeltonn, followed by others including whalemaro as the third. The_Game_Genius constructed the town's livestock farm in his base, a sniffer farm, and a massive garden, being the resident who contributed the most. code_tempesterss was also recruited in the town and code_tempesterss and whalemaro began recruiting. Visualising a [https://www.google.com/search?q=coruscant&sca_esv=a221141628e577fa&rlz=1C5CHFA_enIN1052IN1052&sxsrf=AE3TifOmadTgzh5z6gcdJ7VA-pqtApZZ2w%3A1766659642121&ei=OhZNacyUB4Pw4-EP7NSiSA&ved=0ahUKEwjMmaGDyNiRAxUD-DgGHWyqCAkQ4dUDCBE&uact=5&oq=coruscant&gs_lp=Egxnd3M futuristic ecumenopolis-like town such as Coruscant from Star Wars], Addychi01 constructed multiple layers to his town alongside FellowEsin and JimplayzMC. At the town's peak, it had almost 20 residents in 9 plots, each with enough space. At that time, since Addychi01 didn't know of quarters, he utilised /plot trust to fit multiple residents in a level's plot. One resident even lived in whalemaro's basement, who stole 64g given to them as funding which they hid near it in a secret vault. That resident never came online again. JimplayzMC constructed a marvellous villa on one of Emerald's floors, using concrete they looted from the nearby ruins of [[Aurora:Helvetia_Empire|Helvetia]] which Addychi01 discovered from the Emerald Nether Portal. Another notable resident was jchek14, who 42dayed, only to come back twice, and is still currently in the town, owning his original plots, he formed the town's underground connection system. code_tempesterss fixed the kelp farms.

=== Splitting/Post-Denali ===

Despite being only 15 chunks big, Emerald had plenty of residents, and soon became the capital of the Denali province, the Yukon Frontier, with Addychi01 as its new governor, on 10 May 2025, merely a month and a week after its creation. It split into the Central District and itself, the Central District under the management of [[8set]] in [[Rocky_Mountain_Federation|Dawnstar]]. This gave the town jurisdiction of 9 towns, two of which, named Vandenreich and Sabattus, got purged, leading to the need of a Yukon chain. The towns in that jurisdiction were (in no particular order)- Vandenreich, Sabattus, Turingworld, Apple, Andelom, Polane, Dundass_Bay, Klawock, Emerald, and cool_island. As of now, only cool_island, Polane and Turingworld still survive, apart from, of course, Emerald. code_tempesterss made a town shop alongside The_Game_Genius on one of the town floors.  

After a certain period of the banwave, Addychi01 decided that it was time to give code_tempesterss (former Councillor) a town to join a chain to the Yukon (to connect Turingworld). At first they tried whalemaro's help (former Councillor) who created a town named Sapphire (Ruby, Emerald, Sapphire), and code_tempesterss connected Emerald to Sapphire through a pedway. Then, code_tempesterss was given a town after another failed attempt by saller_ar and his town, The_Saller_Hills, who was a resident in Denali. Finally, it succeeded as code_tempesterss, who accidentally bought premium, made Torchville. (now Azalea).

Soon, the town joined the nation of North Alaska, the official successor nation of Denali, and Addychi01 attempted to recruit. At this point, the garden The_Game_Genius made had been claimed, and the town was 65 chunks big. Addychi01 plotted to make a headshop alongside Miyawakiii on the former mega-shop planned floor, but the plan never went through. Realising the need to make a chain town to allow New_Drepanum (now Drepanum) to join North Alaska, Addychi01 gave the town to the co-mayor of New Aubrey another North Alaskan town, DarkwarJM, who still currently holds Emerald. As of now, 2 out of Emerald's 3 non-Denali members no longer exist, those being Castle_John ([[Alaska]]), Teslin ([[Alaska]]), and Caribou_Meadows/APE_INCORPORATED ([[Cascadia]]) (The latter two having been deleted).
