RE: Discovering Kiwike
Twas three nights before Christmas and the Android was on the search for a Minecraft server. After typing 'Minecraft Roleplaying Server' into ye olde Google Search bar, Kiwike 2.0's MCForum page naturally showed up. I applied, found the Kiwike forums, began posting away, and sent a PM to the mysterious owner, yottabyte. The PM simply consisted of me making my ambitions clear; another way of seeing it, however, is that I asked to become a Forum Moderator on my very first day.
So that's that, I played on the first temporary map and then the original 'Kiwike' map which was then followed by another temporary map. All throughout I made it a point to get myself known by a majority, and come that second temp map I founded the town Droidopolis (a remake of my town on the original Kiwike map) on a mountain close to the spawn. The town was griefed overnight, as expected, and it just so happened that two other citizens remained online and reported it to me. These citizens, one whose name I forgot and the other being the notorious Graftwijgje (who later left to make a server with our Dev Cilph), decided to make another town, but this one would be hidden underground. The name was agreed upon and we made a short trek to a pond and began digging. The name, it was decided, would be Hidden Droidopolis. At this point we selectively let people join and the underground hallways began to grow until I let in a couple bad cookies named NLewis and Pwolbart. If you're interested in the root of my shaky relationship with these to, it'd interest you to know that they promptly laid TNT throughout the cavern and Hidden Droidopolis, arguably the best town on this temporary map, had been destroyed. On this map I succeeded in making myself known to the point that I was finally granted moderator status, and after noting the much too wishful thinking of the prospective co-admin nFmous, 2.0 was released.
I'll wrap up by going over my most successful venture, the Republic of Helvanthar. The capital of this soon to be nation was Bludwick and was built in the opposite direction of its inevitable enemy, The Vikings, led by Scuba. As Cellular mentioned, he played a large role in both constructing the walls of the town as well as collapsing and destroying all that was good. More and more towns were added while we fought numerous wars, none so great as The Grand War, which was coincidentally fought against NLewis and Co. Time went on, the nation as a whole went in fairly large cycles of activeness and lack thereof, but all in all it was a ton of fun.
