Overview
The First Claimgate and the Great Towny Crash are commonly used to describe a major scandal involving Levithan mayor MrLevi. An incidental and illegal townly command was used that resulted in the claiming a massive area of the world map (see picture). This claim even overridden the claims of other towns. Efforts to unclaim the land by then-prime minister marioboyrc resulted in a loop of server crashes leaving RetroMC offline for an hour while administrators attempted to restore the world.
Aftermath
After the world was restored, administrators blocked users from entering the forbidden towny command so a claim like this could not happen again. (see Second Claimgate and the Trial of LukeIsStuff). Many Imperial Coalition residents believed that the entire empire would be deleted from towny. Many non-resident RetroMC users were frustrated with some rage-quitting the game as all the diamonds they had mined prior to the world restoration were gone. A memorial dedicated to the tragic event is located in Levithan at the exact location the command was entered.
Testimonials
Here are real reactions from in-game users and the Imperial Coalition discord chat:
- MrLevi "I think i have have literally broken the whole server boys. By a single command" "Im going to assume that was my last command as an Imperial Coalition member." "I think nonetheless the staff will enact some sort of restriction on large towns like this now."
- Random In-Game User: "[I lost all my diamonds I quit.]"
- Waid:"There may have been an invident involving accidental claiming of a lot of land that wasn't me" "so, what's going to happen to this union?"
- marioboyrc: "The server probably won't reopen soon and the Union will be in ruins"
- An Admin: "You all f****d up and now its my job to fix it, why t** f*** is this my problem."
- crazy: "no way. holy f*********************. We need johnny."
