Many friendly players showed up and some offered to stay around and build things. He offered food and shelter to new players joining the server who were trying to get a start and kept trees planted around the castle, asking only that players replant when they harvested wood. To produce that much red wool was a massive challenge at the time (sheep could not be bred or dyed yet).īy now several months had passed, and more people began to become aware of this base. Roses were obtained by flying around the surrounding areas and collecting all the red flowers he could find. The top of the towers were made of red wool that was produced by dying white wool blocks with roses. They built the base's iconic aquaduct, and shortly after, constructed the drum tower and arched twin towers. The player who owned this house was named alex02028, and they agreed to work together to expand the base. After a few days there, he began to notice that other parts of the castle were being repaired, and someone had even created a house nearby. It was built all of cobble and easy to fix. Xcc decided that he would repair the castle and make it his home. This could have been one of their early builds. The Facepunch players had a long history of creating bases and posting the coords on the forum only for them to be found and destroyed. He doesn't know if he was the original builder of this castle, but he was part of the group of Facepunch users that made up most of the dedicated player base of 2b2t at that time ( sequel, chezhead, Phagocytic, etc). In the courtyard, xcc found some small buildings against the inside wall with signs named for players inhabiting them. One of the towers was built almost to sky height (128) and had a room ontop of it. The castle was made up of four towers connected by walls with a central courtyard. There were no people around and it was (at that time) reasonably far from spawn, located at approximately -400, 800. After adventuring for a few weeks and staying in various ruined structures, he stumbled upon a partially destroyed castle which he believed to be abandoned. The big wall and PEACE sign in the distance as well as the road out of spawn at 42Z drew him to the -X direction. At that time, new players spawned at 0,0 and there was an obsidian area on the ground, approximately a 15×15 block square that was usually surrounded by lava, water, or cobble, meaning spawn was filled with dozens of people punching each other to death with their fists. He happened to join the server during one of the busiest times. He was not much of a Minecraft player, having only played in single-player survival mode during an early alpha release. He is not sure when he first logged onto the server, but his earliest screenshots date back to Beta 1.2 which came out in January 2011. Xcc2 first came to know about through a post on 4chan early in 2011 either on /b/ or /v/.
