I don't think anyone is going to read this and it might not be very entertaining but everyone is doing it, so i figured i might as well.

It started out on the second map of the server. I joined maybe 3 weeks in to the map. I was introduced to the server by UJustGotMcPwned and SXR123. I'm not quite sure how they found it, but they told me i should go on. He started telling me a little about how factions works and what the server was. When he told me it was a pvp based server i got a little pumped and scared at the same time. I've never even thought about playing on pvp before this server. Before this i played with mods and just plain old vanilla minecraft. The thought of pvp was different to me. I didn't really know how it worked.

We then created the faction "The Silence"(witch eventually turned into "TimeLords" (Both are references to Dr. Who, Just in case you were wondering)). It was just UJustGotMcPwned, SXR123, and I to start off. We made a little base and claimed land rather quickly. We started setting up our base, found a few spawners which then were turned into grinders, and a nice wheat farm right outside our base. We learned rather quickly that it is NOT a smart idea to claim land unless you are ready. I wasn't on when this occurred but, SXR123 was outside but he was on the faction land (we didnt really know how factions worked yet, still getting the hang of it). We all thought that if you are in your faction land, then you are completely safe from everything...we were wrong. This was right, if your not enemies. FUNDA came over and hit him a few times, he ran back to the land and stood there thinking that he was safe. He was then quickly killed by a bow (going off the top of my memory, this might have been maybe just a tad different, but this is what i was told). The few days went on and i can't remember who we got killed by, but our base was claimed and we were looted.

When we got back after we were unbanned, we moved next to Enhasa (At this time, ShotzVee was the leader). We stayed there until the next map.

I will never forget the first REAL pvp battle i had. This happened directly outside of our base, it was a battle of UJustGotMcPwned and 2 guys(that i can't seem to remember..) from Goddersons. We saw only the 2 names and we tried playing it tactically. We would open the door only for a little and shoot some arrows. It came down to them moving farther away and Pwned and I ran toward them. We drank up and headed out. The battle lasted for a good while. While both of our factions would run forward and get some hits to the backing up drinking/setting up post and eating some bread. We both tried running to get back in the base but they were right behind us. We got stuck by the door and was finished off by their swords. The map grew stale and we just kinda sat around till reset.

During the end of map 2 we started talking to anamericandude of FUNDA. The original plans were for us to join FUNDA. Then we made the allience with Vindicies and Absolution, Also know now as "The Triforce". There must have been 25 of us in the mumble chat if not more just counting down the seconds left to join the server and build up again, but this time, it was for about 30 people. Not just me and a couple of friends. We all started to get to know each other as we mined like hell to get those first diamonds. After a few of us got some diamond gear and a decent supply of materials, BarbaricYawp went to find us a stronghold. He was successful in doing this in quite a short period of time.

After the renovations to the crappy stronghold was done, we had a pretty nice base set up. Our factions claimed the land each having 4 chuncks in a triangle formation. We continued to mine until we all had full diamond gear and some more to spare. In the process of mining we found 2 cave spider, spider and zombie spawners all of them being within 100 blocks. We claimed the chunks to the spawners and the spawners themselves. The 2 cave spiders where linked together and the other 2 were seperate. That was an amazing setup and worked very well. Throught the various raids, temple caps that we were successful in were extremely fun. all in all it turned out to be an awesome alliance.

Sad part about the TriForce was that it ended so abruptly. It came to the point were there were only like 5-10 out of about 30 that would be online. They all kinda just vanished from all existence. I won't forget the fun times i had with the triforce and all of its members.

I stated out this map (map 4) with Majora. Shit happened (WAY to much to explain for this post). I then moved with Arksmith. I am currently with arksmith and plan to stay as long as they will keep me.

This was the story of ioime96. It was kinda long and if you got to this point then i congratulate you for reading about my boring story lol.
