Spawn

In Minecraft worlds, a spawn is considered to be the area around the origin points of the X and Y coordinates (0, 0 also known as the origin point). The Uneasy Vanilla spawn region is the location where all players first start out on the server. Players are randomly spawned in areas 100 to 500 blocks away from the origin point. Like many other anarchy-style Minecraft servers, players build many structures that can make it difficult to start the game as a new player.

Early History
There were many natural elements of the Spawn of Uneasy Vanilla. Some of the naturally generated structures at spawn included a few villages, which have been looted and destroyed over time. Forests and trees have been destroyed by players both for use of wood by new players, and by deliberate burning to make it uninhabitable. The "1k Wall" was built early by TLMG and KR0W and featured a large cobblestone barrier erected at the 1000 block mark in each direction. Another iconic structure was the Dirt Hotel, a large tower constructed primarily of dirt blocks.

The Spawn Jungle was a large jungle biome in the positive XZ quadrant. For many players, it was the closest source of wood when first starting on the server. It was looted and burned over time, with Frozentim_m's Lavacastlands finally removing it from the server.

Lavacasts
Lavacasts are structures created by placing flowing lava and then placing water over it to instantly create large cobblestone block structures. A great lavacast was created in March of 2020, being one of the first and biggest lavacasts on the server. It rises up from 0,0 in the four cardinal directions, forming a + shape. Underneath it is the remains of the The Old Capitol of the Spawn Republic. Many other lavacasts were built since then, including the 1k Wall, which was created by building a large bridge structure, and then placing lava.

Enter Frozentime_m
Frozentime_m was a newer player who started playing the server in June of 2020. He is responsible for building numerous structures near spawn. One of these early structures included a large nether portal tower, which was ultimately griefed. He also built the Satan Spikes, large mountains of lava placed around the 666 coordinates in each quadrant.

Frozentime_m's biggest and most well known structure and spawn is known as Lavacastlands. Although many players had built lavacasts before, Lavacastlands was a large series of lavacasts that started at 300 blocks from the origin point, reaching the 1k wall in each direction. The project took many months to complete and was finished in November of 2020. This effectively covered all of the natural terrain at the Uneasy Vanilla Spawn.

The mapping the entirety of the spawn region is another task done solely by Frozentime_m. Several maps at different scales have been made, but the default scale is frequently updated. It is rumored to be available for copying by players on a floating island somewhere...

2020
Several structures were built in addition to lavacasts in 2020. DervenOmega built the Spawn Dragon, a large dragon statue made of prismarine. It was later griefed. Butts_Mahoney built the Spawn Skull. It too was griefed. For a prize giveaway, Amkhz built many "trees" made of terracotta blocks to fool new players. One of the fake trees contained coordinates to a shulker box of items. Finally, an unknown player built many similar statues facing towards spawn like soldiers marching to war. Statues of stone were built in the south, and ones made of snow were built in the east.

During the later months of 2020, Withers became a common sight at spawn. Player HazMattMC personally released over eighty of his "Spawn Sentries" Each Wither was nametagged with a number.

2021
Spawn had several large changes during 2021. Several highways and roads were built by various players. Tetedemile used TNT dupers to destroy a large chunk of terrain outside the 1k Wall on the eastern side. Later, When the server updated to Version 1.17 in July, moss blocks were used to spread trees and grass easily. Badmines is notable for being the first player to bring moss blocks to spawn as they were only obtainable through shipwrecks generated in the new chunks. Moss was spread throughout the lavacasts.

Beginning around Christmas of 2021, several players from the recently griefed base Eunuch Island built a spawn town called NonDom. It contained many crops and festive builds to ring in the 2022 year. Probablynotnick, leader of Eunuch Island invited many players out of the giving spirit of the holidays.

2022
Lavacasting continued to be a popular activity at Spawn. Pneisballs also known as Fluffles personally made several large casts outside of the original Lavacastlands.

Withers were also added heavily at Spawn during 2022. PaaHoo became well known for leaving many nametagged Withers around Spawn.
