Tinkered_ is a member of the nation Pilbara, serving as the mayor of NT and the nation's Associate Justice.

History

Beginning

Prior to joining the server, Tinkered_ was in search of an active Earth SMP. Scouring the internet for servers of the like, he'd eventually discover EarthMC through server lists and YouTube. Intrigued by the server's long history and lore, he first joined EarthMC on January 18, 2024 and is believed to have spawned in either Northern Africa or the Middle East. Despite his prior research, he found himself lost because he had relied on outdated content from Nova. As a result, he was unable to join the nations he had studied, particularly Avalon and Nubia. Tinkered_ would later uncover the map, confirming his suspicions that the world was indeed very different to what he had known. Nonetheless, he would explore various regions on this map, first setting his sights on Japan due to his preference of island nations. Consequently, Tinkered_ joined the town of Sendai, staying for roughly 7 minutes before growing bored and leaving to join Nashville in Tennessee, drawn by their activity in chat. Upon joining Nashville, Tinkered_ was shown around the town, even being given an observation deck pass by the mayor, PenquinZRock. Regardless of the mayor's hospitality, the price of plots alongside his boredom ultimately led Tinkered_ to leave the town just an hour after joining. He then joined Mainz in the Netherlands, finding their buildings and the contiguity of the nation refreshing, but would however, leave and join Amsterdam, the nation's capital, a day later. It was here where Tinkered_ bought his first house, a small cottage made of bricks. Following this, Tinkered_ didn't log on again and was 42'd.

Onslow Bay

Months later on May 6th, Tinkered_ returned to the server and unlike before, he knew where he wanted to settle. Opening the map he would pan to Australia, investigating the various towns scattered across the continent. After this investigation, Tinkered_ narrowed down his choice of a place to settle to 2 towns; Freddo or Onslow Bay. Ultimately, he chose Onslow Bay due to the town's size and evident activity on the map. Tinkered_ messaged the town's mayor, kobiKraft, asking to join and when confirmation was given, he was welcomed into Onslow Bay and given what was essentially a deepslate box for a house. Regardless, Tinkered_ was content with the fact that he was now part of a large town, where he could begin making himself known. Curious about the historical nature of the continent due to the several present nations visible on the map, he inquired about Pilbara's history. It was during this discussion with kobiKraft that Tinkered_ was invited to the Pilbara Discord, which he happily joined. In the days that followed, he continued to explore the large town and had claimed 2 plots along the way, one becoming his permanent embassy and the other a shrine for the religion of Craftism, which he created.

Craftism

On May 14th, Tinkered_ founded the religion of Craftism, its beliefs stemming from Kobism and Holy Craftism. To commemorate its creation, a shrine was built on an empty plot in Onslow Bay, even receiving a visit from Kobi himself. However, over time, the religion fell into neglect, with Tinkered_ remaining its sole follower—until he eventually converted to Kobism, leaving Craftism abandoned.

Mesatown

After saving up enough gold and scouting, on the 30th of May, Tinkered_ set out to create his own town which he named Mesatown. He decided that the buildings of the town were to be constructed in a western cowboy aesthetic. With this in mind, he would begin planning his future builds. It was during this period of planning where Mesatown was nothing but a cobblestone wall that CallMeLucqs, a random speaking in chat, joined the town. CallMeLucqs was granted trust and from this point onward both him and Tinkered_ would work on the buildings of the town, notably the Yeehaw Saloon, Community House and housing area. On the 28th of July Tinkered_ would leave Mesatown alongside the nation of Pilbara as a whole, marking the beginning of his nomadic era.

World Cup

Tinkered_ participated in two matches of the 2024 EMC World Cup, both being losses against Victoria.

Involvement in the first Zealandian War

On June 7th after receiving word of a potential attack in nation chat, Tinkered_ volunteered to accompany some other Pilbarans to New Zealand. The group proceeded to travel north to New Plymouth where they engaged in a standoff until Dian mercenaries hired by Zealandia appeared, slaughtering every Pilbaran troop, including Tinkered_.

Nomadic Era

On the 21st of July Tinkered_ would announce to 1zzy_Vv that he was planning on leaving Pilbara. He would begin his journey on the 27th by first exploring New Zealand, joining Eldham and Port Jason. Wanting to experiment with his own nation, he travelled to Norfolk Island from Mater Dei (which he joined for teleport accessibility) and created the town of Norfolk which was to be under the nation of Norvola, however, the town was instead disbanded a day later. After this, Tinkered_ returned to Mesatown, lingering until August 4th when he joined Brasov. Inevitably, Tinkered_ would leave Brasov that same day and remain in Mater Dei until the 10th. Tinkered_ then left Mater Dei and joined Sibiu, but would predictably leave that same day to join Mesatown where he would remain until August 11th.

Fortress Isles & Tatam

On August 11th he would create the town of Fortress_Isles situated in the D'entrecasteaux Islands. After realizing that the town was out of range, he abandoned it, transferring ownership to someone he had recruited just a short while earlier. This led Tinkered_ to relocate to North Maluku where he established the town of Tatam, constructing a statue of kobiKraft just a couple days after. He stayed in Tatam until October 1st, when he purchased Mater_Dei.

New Caledonia

On October 1st, Tinkered_ bought the town Mater_Dei from 35EGO35 for 200g. From there, the town was renamed "New_Caledonia" and joined Pilbara, where it was repaired and continues to be worked on.

Pilbara Media Network

On October 7th, Tinkered_ announced the establishment of the Pilbara Archive Commission (PAC) with the goal of archiving Pilbaran media and towns, ensuring they remain accessible when Aurora becomes unavailable. It was decided that the archival process would occur monthly and would only include large towns rather than the entire continent to save space and time. On the 11th of November, the PAC was rebranded as the Pilbara Media Network (PMN), a conglomerate currently consisting of the PAC, Pilbara Works (PW), Pilbaran Politics Group (PPG) and Melbourne Map Art Co (MMC). On December 3rd, the December 2024 Election results were streamed by Panth_r of the PPG under the PMN.

Involvement in the 4th Australian War

On the 7th of October the NA-Pilbara alliance declared war on Australia following the ignoral of a joint ultimatum. Tinkered_ had already been subjected to this conflict just a day prior when Australia attacked NA-Pilbaran troops at Rockhampton and due to this he was more than willing to volunteer. As such, Tinkered_ would be present at multiple battles and even helped orchestrate a hunt on Port Victoria's mayor and a less successful strike against the town of Esperance. However, this was not where Tinkered_ made his greatest contributions. Instead of focusing on PvP, he primarily assisted with morale, gold, and gear.

December 2024 Election

On the 24th of November Tinkered_ registered as MoC and MP of the Pilbaran Indies as a member of the Pilbaran Progressors Party in the December 2024 Election. Tinkered_'s campaign consisted purely of posters and videos, wanting to remain out of the conflict between the two large parties, his own (the PPP) and the opposing Pilbara Unionist Party. After voting ended, it was announced on stream that he had lost as MP of the Pilbaran Indies by one vote but he was just after appointed Minister of Community.

Tenure as MoC

Tinkered_'s tenure as MoC consisted of hosting various events (most notably movie night and the Pilbaran Olympics football event) as well as remaining generally active. The tenure was cut short on the 6th of January, 2025, as the cabinet reshuffled in accordance with the Associate Justice Bill, which was the role Tinkered_ received.

Tenure as Associate Justice

Tinkered_'s tenure as Associate Justice is currently ongoing.

Galactrice

On the 8th of December Tinkered_ would acquire Galactrice from mooseguy65, who had been in the process of sniping the town. Nothing much would be done with the town besides the hosting of a football event for the Pilbaran Olympics. Due to the high cost of overclaim shield (approximately 1-1.5k gold), the desolate nature of the town and discussions with several people, Tinkered_ ultimately decided that he would do the right thing and return the town to Victoria. Upon doing so, Victoria opened a Pilbaran embassy in Imperatoris.
