== The Raid of Inappropriate == | |||
On June 29, 2026, an opportunity presented itself that would change the fate of El Paso. | |||
The town of Inappropriate had been abandoned by its mayor and residents, the mayor believed to have been banned, inactive for 42 days, the exact threshold for a town to be kicked by the server. Word spread quickly among those who watched the map: the town was about to expire, and its riches would be up for grabs. | |||
[[edjukatid]], [[SouthMoSiren]], and a collaborator named [[MountainMan4200]] formed a plan. They camped near the town's borders, waiting patiently for the timer to run down. Minutes before expiration, they moved in, ready to claim whatever loot had been left behind. | |||
But they were not alone. | |||
An invisible player, [[xin_hachamecha]] of [[Nostra:Japan/ja|Japan]], had been lying in wait, watching the same prize. Without warning, he struck. He cut down [[edjukatid]], [[SouthMoSiren]], and [[MountainMan4200]] in quick succession, a brutal ambush that seemed to end the raid before it truly began. | |||
[[Xin_hachamecha]] scooped up the gold and netherite, believing the threat was neutralized. | |||
But he made a critical mistake. | |||
In his rush to claim the spoils, he failed to see the nether portal route [[edjukatid]] had established, a direct path from his mine to the town. The travel time was short. | |||
[[edjukatid]] respawned, sprinted back through the portal, and returned to Inappropriate while [[xin_hachamecha]] was still gloating. He dumped whatever loot he could grab into his ender chest, securing it from further loss. He was killed again, this loop occurring multiple times in succession, but the damage was done, the most valuable spoils were already safe. | |||
In total, [[edjukatid]] walked away with 300 gold from the raid. | |||
True to their preexisting agreement, he split the haul 50/50 with [[SouthMoSiren]], even though [[SouthMoSiren]] had not personally recovered any loot. The gold was deposited into El Paso's bank, and the results were immediate. | |||
El Paso exploded from 22 chunks to 36 chunks in a single day. | |||
