The Finternet (portmanteau for FinC121 and network) was a supposed network in of underground tunnels connecting Finer Bakery, CalmCreeper360's House and a branching tunnel to a noise machine room. The existence of these tunnels are debated heavily on the server. Some players believe it to be a hoax, including FinsCon himself. However, CalmCreeper360 has been a staunch believer of the Finternet and has been the main leader of the Finternet believers, who believe that FinC121, Norbert011 and 44cckw is secretly covering up the existence of these tunnels.
Beginning some time in November-December 2022, mentions of a similar Trikinet began popping up on signs throughout the server, notably in Oak Hills and Dankstadt. This Trikinet is even more cryptic than the Finternet and virtually no information about it exists. It is believed to be related to TriKhazan, though if it has any relations to the Finternet remains to be seen.
The Finternet might be related to Schizoposting in some capacity.
History
First Mention
The first appearance of the effect occurred on 3 October 2022 at 18:18. CalmCreeper360 opens the conversation by asking about the Finternet, the other players do not know what he is referring and are confused.
CalmCreeper360 : why have you closed the finternet?
Norbert011 : what is the finternet? File:Head FinC121.png FinsCon : The what File:Head FinC121.png FinsCon : ?
CalmCreeper360 : your tunnels
Norbert011 : what is he talking about?
CalmCreeper360 then describes the Finternet as a tunnel system, and that it was connected to his house.
CalmCreeper360 : your tunel system File:Head FinC121.png FinsCon : Is this part of the game=
Norbert011 : ??? File:Head FinC121.png FinsCon : ?
CalmCreeper360 : god yall are fucking kidding me
Norbert011 : only paris has a tunnel system
CalmCreeper360 : you made a tunnel to my house
Norbert011 : ??? File:Head FinC121.png FinsCon : ?
CalmCreeper360 : god yall are fucking kidding me File:Head FinC121.png FinsCon : bro I have no clue what youre talking about
After this conversation, CalmCreeper360 gives a more descriptions of the Finternet;
- It was located on the BetaOnline server, and supposedly constructed and then closed by FinsCon;
- It was built at the time when CalmCreeper360's house was built;
- The Finternet connected from the Finer Bakery into his fireplace.
Norbert011 : maybe you're talking about a diffrent server
CalmCreeper360 : are you fucking kidding
CalmCreeper360 : no its about this very server
CalmCreeper360 : THE DAY WE BUILT MY HOUSE
CalmCreeper360 : YOU MADE A TUNNEL RIGHT BEHIND THIS FIREPLACE
CalmCreeper360 : THAT LEAD TO YOUR BAKERY
CalmCreeper360 : WHY haVE YOU CLOSED IT
Norbert011 : nah I think I would've seen it File:Head FinC121.png FinsCon : No I really dont remember that sorry
CalmCreeper360 : YOU KNOW WHAT IM TALKING ABOUT File:Head FinC121.png FinsCon : Can you show us this tunnel?
At this point, CalmCreeper360 proceeds to lead Fin and Norbert011 into the Finer Bakery backrooms and starts to dig at the back wall of the backroom.
File:Head FinC121.png FinsCon : Must be some old minesNorbert011 : clearly there is nothing there
CalmCreeper360 : stop kidding me
CalmCreeper360 : i have proof
Norbert011 : where?
CalmCreeper360 : photo proof
CalmCreeper360 : look in discord
Norbert011 : impossible

Collected Description

Due to it's uncertain nature, the true extent of the tunnels is unclear. Experiences and descriptions provided by the affected players from these chat logs let us have some clue of what it could have once been.
-
Location of the supposed main entrance, in the backroom of Finer Bakery.
-
CalmCreeper360's House was the first reported instance of an entrance, within the wall next to the fireplace, and has reported to have formerly been located directly inside the fireplace.
-
The third supposed entrance of the Finternet. From the tunnel what would've been a stairway up to the Public Nomad Hut through the floorboards.
Evidence
Evidence for Existence
On multiple occasions there have been strong pieces of evidence of the Finternet possibly existing at some point on the server.
This video, uploaded by the Youtube user 'Zion Garner' on 18 September 2022 predates the first mention of the Finternet. This is one of the main pieces of evidence used by the Finternet believers, while Finternet deniers say that the video is staged with actors and a world download. Zion Garner is also not a known player on Betaonline.
Starting on 30 October 2022, a series of Finternet-related videos has been uploaded by the user 'FINTERNET' on the video-sharing platform 'vidlii'. The user's name, age and country of origin do not fit the profile of any known BetaOnline player. These videos show possible evidence of the existence of the Finternet, with abandoned tunnels underneath Oak Hills and even Fin himself destroying evidence. Wherever or not this is a paid actor or legitimate footage, is debated. The second video, uploaded 1 November 2022, suggests that the construction of the shitting rooms underneath FinC121's Mansion was a coverup to destroy more Finternet evidence.
Evidence against Existence
Finternet deniers, such as Fin, Norbert and 44cckw, all deny the existence of the tunnels. Their main arguments include that there is no hidden tunnels underneath Oak Hills, and that the idea itself is ridiculous and has no basis in reality. Finternet deniers believe all footage and screenshots of the Finternet to be faked using world downloads and actors. Deniers has concluded that the Finternet is simply a Mandela effect; a false memory.
- I am not crazy! I know he dug those tunnels. I knew it was in there. Right behind my fireplace. As if I could ever make such a mistake. Never. Never! I just – I just couldn’t prove it. He covered his tracks, he got that idiot in Paris to lie for him. You think this is something? You think this is bad? This? This trolling? He’s done worse. That mope hut! Are you telling me that a mope hut just appears like that? No! He orchestrated it! Fin! He dug those tunnels! And I saved him! And I shouldn’t have. I took him into my own house! What was I thinking? He’ll never change. He’ll never change! Ever since March 2022, always the same! Couldn’t keep his hands out of the dupe stashes! But not our Fin! Couldn’t be precious Fin! Stealing them blind! And HE gets building permission? What a sick joke! I should’ve stopped him when I had the chance! …And you, you have to stop him! You..
- On the afternoon of October 3, 2022, five people on a beta Minecraft server entered a building in South Oak Hills. Four of them were never seen again. The next morning the one player, CalmCreeper360 , was picked up on a roadside; dust-coated and screaming conspiracy. Creeper said he had broken out of a tunnel in hell. The player babbled a mad tale: a network of tunnels underneath Oak Hills... the Oak Hills noise... an entrance behind his fireplace... video proof... Then he sank into catatonia. Oak Hills lawmen mounted a day-long hunt, but could not locate the strange tunnels. They could find no traces and no entrances. No facts; no crime. Officially, on the records, the Finternet never existed. But during the last months, over and over again reports of bizarre tunnels and stories have persisted all across the server of Betaonline. The Finternet has not stopped. It haunts Betaonline. It seems to have no end.
