New Player Explosion

The New Player Explosion is an event that occurred early-mid 2020. This was a period where a rapid amount of new players started joining. These players include Gromcraft, Ksuboy, Awesomechicken8, AvoKaydowo, and many, many more. The main cause of this event is unknown. It may have been because of recently made ads for the server put on Youtube or worldwide lockdown due to a virus known as Covid-19. This also created growth in the discord.

Effects On The Server
The rapid amount of new players may have caused a demand for staff, as the staff team grew in large size. Since then Fno112, Amaliea, ItzRocketPVP, Kahtini, beefyc0w, Flufffyyyy, along with two others who are no longer on the staff team.

The server also faced some economic growth as many Elite and normal Donors have joined.

There were also many new POIs and events created from this event such as AlpineAwards, Hall of Records, Ksu's Korner, The Forge, and many more.

The economy on the server seemed to worsen as many people sold items cheap as a way to "get rich quick" as some players put it. This still happens today but was much worse during this era.

The server also begin to be maxed out with their 50 player limit. Especially during end resets and the middle of the day on Saturday the server could be 100% full! This doesn't happen anymore, but did happen one time in the 3rd Annual AlpineAwards.

Diamond City plots went up 10x their original price. A small plot used to be 1b but it is now 10b. A bigger plot was 3b but is now 30b.
