The Oil Rig is a massive oil rig, located in the waters outside of Oak Hills and Paris. It was the place of residence for 44ccwk from 26 March to late November, after he left for the White House.
During the secession of Paris from Oak Hills, it was unclear wherever or not the oil rig would stay apart of Oak Hills or join the newly founded Paris, as the oil rig had previously been under the jurisdiction of Harbor department. However, a solution to the problem was created by 44cckw and the oil rig became neutral, meaning it was no longer apart of any town.
History
Early History
The idea of making a oil rig was first made by 44cckw in mid-March 2022. Construction began on 24 March 2022, and it was finished a few days later on 26 March 2022. Obtaining the items required for the build took much longer than this however, as it required large amounts of snow, colored wool and stone.
46mm's Grief
46mm, who was previously banned after the Dupe War, was unbanned by 44cckw in April on the condition that he would play normally. The peace did not last long however, as most of the server was completely destroyed by TNT on 14 April 2022. 46mm was once again banned, and has not returned to the server since. The server restored from backup one week later, due to 44cckw being away on vacation at the time. The oil rig had been completely gone, and was blown up by TNT, possibly due to 46mm having a personal vendetta against 44cckw.
Minor Upgrades
The oil rig received some minor upgrades on 16-17 September 2022. The buildings on top of the rig was given interior and proper stairs, and a large mid-section was dug out leading down to the water. According to 44cckw, a massive drill is being planned to be built, but nothing has currently materialized.
Parisian Civil War
The oil rig was used as a base of operations by raddicted's army during the Parisian Civil War due to its geographical location and close proximity to Paris. The goal of raddicted's Army was to depose and exile Norbert from Paris, and throne raddicted as Paris' single ruler. The army was made up of Oak Hills volunteers, 44cckw and CalmCreeper360. 44cckw allowed troops and munitions to be stationed on the oil rig, and it acted as an (at the time) impenetrable fort. In the early stages of the conflict, the army would launch incursions from the oil rig into Paris and Downtown Oak Hills. These attacks were mildly successful, due to Norbert being able to possess the powers of EvilPoopMan. In the later stages of the war, the oil rig would be under siege by Norbert. After an unsuccessful attempt at entering the oil rig from underground, Norbert resorted to using his EvilPoopMan magic and fly across the water straight to the oil rig. The army quickly fell into disarray and collapsed after this. The oil rig took some damage during this war, as CalmCreeper and raddicted poured lava down onto Norbert when he attempted to reach the oil rig from underneath.
