The 6th Circle

Our community began on December 15th, 2019. We started with five players and have since grown to nearly 70 players in the year and a half that we've been operational.  After we launched, our community began to grow via word of mouth slowly without an easy interface to connect on. In early 2021, we created a website for anyone to visit and apply to join.

The first country to form was The Sovereign Kingdom of Cobblestan led by The Cobbleking, The State Of Wisconsin. Meanwhile, the Infernal Republic of Abaddon, a Nether-based country was being created by ICERTW0.  The Soviet Onion, "Joseph McCarthistan Previously Known as Club Sodastan," and many other small nations would come and go leaving behind their historical landmarks to dot the landscape. 

In early January of 2020, the Nether Highway was constructed, connecting 4 locations across the overworld to each other.  It was expanded and mob-proofed later on. The Highway Iceway got added onto the Highway sometime in July of 2020. Then in February of 2021 marked the Highway's official shopping district opening; this finally allowed players to sell their products without being online at the same time as the buyers. 

On March 3rd, 2021, a discussion about changing the realm's official currency from gold to another resource had begun. After some contemplation and community discussion, the conclusion was that the best currency system would use written books signed by the admins and filled with certain random combinations of letters, numbers, and symbols would be the most secure currency. From March 8th through the 13th, the vote took place to determine whether we would swap to a new currency. The outcome of the vote resulted in our official currency switching from gold to the new book-based system.  By the 13th, Moderator The State Of Wisconsin was already preparing farms for ink, sugar cane, and other supplies to feed our new immense demand for these resources. by April 18th, Gold₦ote, or ₦ was being minted.

On 21st June 2021, Someone vandalized the realm. The realm had been filled with inflammatory signs, destroyed buildings, and shops had been ransacked. After only 12 hours, a culprit had been discovered, and he was immediately banned from the realm. In all the confusion though, one thing shined through about our community. They all banded together to fix the damages almost immediately. In fact, by the time the admin got on to assess the situation, all the main damages had been fixed by our community members already. This proved to us that we are a strong bunch who can get through whatever is thrown at us.

In June, an attempt was made to unload our unused chunks and allow players to experience the first half of the Caves and Cliffs features, and for the first time, the unloading failed, and instead of the chunks being unloaded, they were deleted. This meant that the world was filled with massive empty holes that spanned hundreds of chunks. Fortunately, 1 month later, after 2 more failed attempts, a new program was found that could unload all the chunks in the world that weren't being used. We have since been able to enjoy the new terrain generation within walking distance of all of our builds.

Since 1.18 changed every Seed throughout the game, we have started a new in the new Caves and Cliffs update part 2. But we didn't just go along and lose our Structures, we simply copied them over into the new world Many of our older, unused structures have yet to be copied as of March 10th, however more and more are being copied over, over time.

In early March, a new role was added to our discord called @Assassinatable which, allows players who are more player vs. player combat oriented to partake in it legally with either others who also have the tag or casual players who just feel like picking a fight, without making the casual players feel in danger when they just want to build

On July 27, of 2022, even more of the structures from the old world were ported over to the new one, including the old spawn location, some old houses that are now abandoned, and some other historical sites. The old spawn location was definitely missed while it was gone.
