Parisian Civil War: Difference between revisions

Line 14:

The '''Parisian Civil War''' was a massive event that unfolded on Betaonline. It was mainly a power-struggle between the two leaders of Paris, [[raddicted]] and [[Norbert011]]. [[Oak Hills]] would support raddicted in the conflict with both munitions and soldiers, as [[44cckw]] and [[CalmCreeper360]] volunteered to fight alongside raddicted on the battlefield. This war is the single most bloodiest event in the server's history, and led to large damage on buildings such as the [[Oil Rig]] and [[Norbert011's House]].

The war is considered a coup-attempt, as raddicted unsuccessfully, with Oak Hills support, tried to oust Norbert from power and install himself as the sole ruler of Paris. This goal failed however, and the war ended in a Pyrrhic victory for Norbert.

==Prelude==

===Tensions Arise===

The reasons for the Parisian Civil War erupting can be traced back to a single event on the server: Norbert killing CalmCreeper and raddicted. The exact details surrounding the deaths are disputed by both parties, but the facts are that Norbert killed CalmCreeper with his pickaxe. raddicted would teleport to Norbert and attack him with a pickaxe, while Norbert would kill CalmCreeper yet again. With Norbert having Calm's items, raddicted threatened Norbert with a stack of glowstone that he had borrowed. If Norbert didn't return Calm's items; he would never give Norbert the glowstone back. 44cckw and raddicted also suggested that CalmCreeper and Norbert could duel at the [[Fencepost]], Calm turned down the suggestion. Further violence followed, and CalmCreeper threatened Norbert:

{{User|CalmCreeper360}} : i swear to god if you dont return my stuff you will regret it

{{User|Norbert011}} : bring it on bitch

To stop Norbert from killing raddicted and CalmCreeper, 44cckw would use /kill to murder Norbert, with raddicted proceeding to steal all of Norbert's dropped items. Due to pretty much all players loosing their items, the server reloaded from backup.

With the server doing a rollback to restore player's items, 44cckw had hopefully ended the ongoing conflict on the server. However, raddicted would kill Norbert when he entered [[raddicted's House]]. Norbert would complain about this, citing that raddicted was inciting more conflict on the server. raddicted would on the other hand say that it was perfectly acceptable, as Norbert was trespassing on private property, and that he simply did exactly what Norbert did previously. Norbert did not take this lightly, and killed raddicted inside of his home and stole his items in the process. With this, Norbert had again created two enemies on the server who wanted him brought to justice. To prevent raddicted or 44cckw from killing him and taking the items, Norbert went offline. While 44cckw was thinking about what to do, Calm took matters into his own hands.

===Dog Massacre===

As revenge for his murder and theft of items, CalmCreeper was on the war-path. With the help of 44cckw, he broke into Norbert's house and burned all of Norbert's dogs alive with lava.

{{User|44cckw}} : Oh no...

{{User|CalmCreeper360}} : this is a warning

This event in particular is one of the main contributing factors of the Parisian Civil War breaking out. raddicted and 44cckw knew that conflict would arise from Calm's massacre, and immediately began preparing and stockpiling weapons and food.

[[File:NetherRevertDupe1.png|180px|thumb|right|The dupe stash discovered by raddicted.]]

With rad's Army in disarray after being destroyed by Norbert's EvilPoopMan powers, raddicted came up with the idea of using lava-buckets as a weapon. To gather the lava, raddicted and 44cckw ventured into the [[Nether]]. However, the players found a lot more than just lava. raddicted stumbled across a massive dupe stash, left by [[Revert]] during his second stay on the server. This was a massive morale-boost to the army, as the supply of dupe war-era diamonds that they had used previously was very small. rad's Army would spend a significant time manually mining these duped diamond blocks, and gather them at the oil rig. In total, they gathered approximately 3 stacks of diamond blocks, which was more than enough.

{{User|raddicted}} : found something BIG

{{User|raddicted}} : dupe remnant

{{User|Norbert011}} : fake

{{User|44cckw}} : Oh my god

{{User|raddicted}} : norbert wont get to see this

{{User|Norbert011}} : this is the weakest attempt to tp kill someone I've ever seen

While this went down in the underworld, Norbert was preparing a counter-attack in the Overworld.
