HOLY BEEF AND CRACKERS

[familiar-shore]

Hermitcraft, SMPLive, UltraHardCore

I’m reminiscing on the tragectory of Minecraft’s popularity from 2010 to now the age of the ‘Minecraft Renaissance’ as someone that watched it happen. I’ll put a cut on desktop later

A lot of the modern Minecraft audience as it stands on Instagram, tumblr, and those fans exclusively on YouTube, grew up on Minecraft. A good portion were part of TeamCrafted, Yogscast’s minecraft golden age, and the rise of Minecraft machinima. Core audience’s will most likely be from that audience that once the content changed or when others ‘grew out’ of Minecraft, there could have been a trend in the fandom projections but. I was and to an extent(I am posting this on a mineblr after all) still in some of these fandoms. It makes me extremely happy to be able to just tell someone one in school that I played Minecraft all of last Saturday since I had a lazy day. That hasn’t been something I’ve been able to confidently say since middle school; but I’m also a bit sad, because yeah while there’s the ‘Minecraft Renaissance’ happening I see so little of some series that I remember vividly predating those. Paulsoursjr’s how to survive the night? The survive and thrive series! It was on the download redirect page in place of a tutorial. Fuck I remember when there was a ‘play tutorial level’ button on the home screen of Minecraft. I remember Mindcrack and the aether mod hype. I remember seeing 7 or so episodes of shadow of iseraphirel out at the time. These were mid 2010. Logically I know that a core of the modern Minecraft audience is younger than me. That they didn’t really see Minecraft as a community being built, but these were fundamental times! YouTube was only 5 years old, Minecraft was in beta and still had a playable test version on the site! Mindcrack and multiplayer in its entirety predates some of these communities. Ethos lab season 1! All of these I never thought would be the foundations that modern Minecraft communities were laid upon and looking back it’s mind boggling to see how these core concepts got built upon and refined and Minecraft is so much bigger than it was then. I’m old, not ancient for this community but I’m definitely on the consumer side of things one of the ‘big kids.’ I do love how things have changed and expanded i just needed to reminisce.

Ignore that other one. Yeah that update was 2014(?) but i'm pretty sure i played for another year or two. Okay yeah mindcrack does sound little familiar now. TC, AH, and the Yogs all had their own servers for various things. Hell at one point one of the Yogs' old servers had like 15 different series going on. TC were spread out but met up for different cons, AH has their office at RT, and the Yogs are mostly based in Britain in their office but they have quite a few international members (p1)

T W E N T Y  F O U R T E E N holy crap i feel old now

mmm you may know about mindcrack from the ultrahardcore (UHC) series? i don’t know if they started them but they were one of the first people to do and popularize it. and they used to do feed the beast. also sethbling and vechs joined in later seasons if youre familiar with them? also also notch and dinnerbone used to sometimes play with them, in both the smp and uhcs.

ahhh yeah okay. my section of youtube back then was very narrow so i had hard of RT and Yogs before but never really sought their content out.

When Beef first announced that he was opening a P.O. Box, I quickly began reworking this idea for a piece of fan art. I wanted to thank Daniel for the years of entertainment he has brought us million or so fans. And I also wanted to thank him personally for the creativity, inspiration, and positivity he’s given me over the years as well. In the chest are references to the games, minecraft builds, and groups he has been in over the years.  And most importantly I am so happy I was able to complete this and successively send this poster to Canada. 

Here is the link to the unboxing video on Beef’s channel where he shows my poster: https://youtu.be/6DKRiI_48FE?t=7m14s

Server Rules

Don't be a dick. Be nice to the other people, and be sure to make friends! The people of our community are very friendly. Absolutely no griefing or stealing. We back up the server every day, and we will know if you have done any harm to the server. Griefing includes lighting fires, blowing up TNT, destruction of property, etc. Pranking is allowed, as long as it doesn’t interfere with Rule #1 or #2. Do not kill other players without the other player's permission. Not all players want to PVP. Be mature. Hate speech is not tolerated. Swearing is fine, just keep it toned down. All items must be returned to dead players in PVP scenarios. This does not include heads -unless the murder was not consensual. No hacked clients, x-ray, flying, etc. Be able to communicate through Discord. Having a mic and communicating through messaging AND vocally is ESSENTIAL. Have fun.

About Pixi-Kosti-Craft

Pixi-Kosti-Craft is a friendly, Pixelmon, lite plugin'd Survival Minecraft server. Our idea of a server is a Mindcrack/Hermitcraft-esque group. We are a whitelisted community, to keep all of the bad people out, and to keep the community small and happy. As I have mentioned in the rules, we request that you be mature. The age range is 16+. We range from 16-29, making us a pretty diverse community. We are mostly US, but have others from China, and Mexico.

Our focus as a group is community. Every 2 months or so we enjoy a group event, it usually being UHC (UltraHardCore). Players don’t have to be very good at PVP, but those with a solid interest in playing are more likely to be invited to join the server. We like talking to our server members and this is a great way we bond outside of just the survival server. We also play many different games, such as Overwatch, Table Top Sim, Garry's Mod, Rocket League, CS:GO, etc. We also enjoy messing around on minigame servers like Hypixel.

We strive to make a tight-knit community, because of this I want to restate that if you do not plan on joining Discord and chatting then this may not be the server for you. If you do enjoy the prospect of hanging out in Discord, then look forward to some great times!

How can I apply?

You may either leave your application in the comments, or PM me if you'd like to keep it more private. Make sure to have read the rules! Please include the following in your application:

IGN Preferred Name (we mostly go on a first name basis, but some people prefer their in-game names/nicknames) Discord Name (you can PM this) Age Country Timezone Do you have a working mic and plan on joining Discord? Why you want to join Pixi-Kosti-Craft? Any skills you have in Minecraft & what you will bring to the server. Some things about yourself. Events you would be interested in playing with the server members (UHCs, adventure maps, PVP events, other suggestions, etc)

Make sure that you've read the rules.

Please do not lie about your age in your application.

Thank you for reading about our server, I hope to see you on!
