I have filled up a double chest, containing everything from a wooden sword to diamonds and enchanted items. These will be hidden around my residences in 54 free buy chests, for all of you to find. I am currently thinking of starting around 7 PM Pacific Standard Time, but if that sounds like a bad time let me know, I am sort of flexible that day. Below is a picture of all the items you could win in the Scavenger Hunt. MY EMC STORY: First, let me give you a little history of my Minecraft career before EMC. I had spent over a year just playing Singleplayer, and then my friend Enzler and I joined a server called McPluto, which in hindsight was really poorly run. We played on that for a while until the server eventually died and I got frustrated and left. I think after this Minecraft lost interest for me, and it wasn't until one day on Facebook that this changed. Among the annoying sidebar adds on Facebook I noticed an Empire Minecraft add, and I figured that if a server was important enough to have a Facebook add it must be awesome. That just so happened to be exactly correct, and by the time I finished the tutorial and chose smp7 I was extremely excited. I got Enzler to join that same day (its his 1 year birthday as well, but he's perma-grounded by his parents, so he won't get to celebrate ) and claimed my first residence, 14860. Immediately, I built a little house, and started work on a castle wall around the perimeter, both of which still stand today. Overtime, I have kept adding things to that residence, including a smallish sky shop which I just recently tore down. I used the Minecraft account of a friend who quit Minecraft as an alt and got another res, which I worked on for a while. During this whole time, despite it containing many famous EMC historical events, such as the mass exodus and the Copherfield incident, I was completely unaware of anything occuring outside my little area. It wasn't until at least halfway through that first year that I started making friends and being social. Getting hired at the TREES Library (R.I.P.) helped me make my first friends, Dandandondo and Kadboy, and through their Tekkit server I met Chris_flo, the owner of TREES. (TREES is an smp7 organization fyi). After deciding I liked the TREES group, I just hung out around them all until I became friends with everyone. I now have tons of friends, and it has made Minecraft so much fun. I will list everyone later on. Last December, I purchased a Gold supportership and claimed a residence next to mine, 14859. Inspired by the 2012 movie Avengers, I began the largest project I have ever attempted, a replica of STARK Tower. It took me two months to build the structure itself, and at the point this is being written I still have several floors left to interior decorate. Using this tower (the first picture) as a base, I started the Avengers, which ended up being a total of 10 people, each of whom got half a floor in STARK Tower. Also around December, I started going on the forums, and have since become a well-known member. The forums have been great, and I now find myself on them far more than Facebook. Anyways, in conclusion, this has been a great journey, and I could not imagine not-playing EMC. I would like to thank all the staff, present and past, who have helped start this server, and turn it into the amazing place it is today. I would also like to thank all my great friends, and if I forget somebody, which I likely, I apologize in advance. So in no particular order, thank you to these people: EnzlerAlyattaylaDeathconnDandandondoKadboyCube151Chris_flocutejuliewPandaseatramenSonicol1Pab10ssstrngmnmlameidlThe_Shadow_007creepincreepers7Ninjastorm5201 (R.I.P.)The_Legend4Drew_1999All the great people I've met and got to have discussions with on the forums So once again, thank you to all who have made this a great community, its been a great year.
