Lowtuff: Difference between revisions

Lowtuff first began their career by joining New Danzilona with two of their IRL friends in July 2013.<ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/Danzilona/comments/1itvtf/if_no_one_could_touch_beetees_shack_yet_thatd_be/</ref> Lowtuff quickly became an active explorer and pioneer for NDZ, overseeing the development of jungle & nether biome colonies as well as expansion into the immediate surroundings of the city, most notably claiming the city of [[Babylon]]<ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/Danzilona/comments/1k5we0/hooray_for_imperialism/</ref><ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/Danzilona/comments/1jvql7/a_new_dawn_rises_and_with_it_rises_a_new_town_of/</ref> and establishing contact with [[Eros Varos]]. Along their travels, Lowtuff developed a knack for mapping and went on to spend much of their time on [[CivCraft 2.0|Civcraft 2.0]] mapping out the entirety of the +,+ quadrant.<ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/Danzilona/comments/1nblx7/i_made_a_maaaaaaaap/</ref><ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/Civcraft/comments/224sfp/an_updated_accurate_map_of_the_plus_plus/</ref> Interacting with a variety of cities around the map also led Lowtuff to forming an interest in diplomacy. They became a foreign representative for NDZ numerous times and helped found the [[United Provinces of the Plus Plus]].<ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/UnitedProvinces/comments/1szuo0/embassies/</ref><ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/Danzilona/comments/1ph3gh/we_should_really_formalise_the_alliance_system_we/</ref><ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/Danzilona/comments/1wenbv/lets_talk_realpolitik_friends_lowtuffs_campaign/</ref> In December 2013, Lowtuff was a scout for the Danzilonans during the Christmas attack of Rancuneus and became the only Danzilonan to have been pearled by the raider.<ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/Civcraft/comments/1tqncm/well_shit/</ref>

A dedicated Danzilonan, they introduced a number ofmany changes and reforms to the city, mostover the years, notablyincluding making NDZ's flag and founding the Phoenix Council that filled the power vacuum in the city following the [[Yurtstead War|Riverford War]].<ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/Danzilona/comments/1kicia/anyone_have_a_problem_with_this_being_the/</ref><ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/Danzilona/comments/2glizr/proposal_emergency_governance/</ref> Lowtuff was determined to fix everything in the aftermath of the war, which involved ending the [[Aeginan independence movement]] through diplomatic means and attempting to make official internal boundaries numerous times.<ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/Danzilona/comments/2glf5o/just_to_make_certain_that_were_all_100_clear_on/</ref><ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/Danzilona/comments/2gduh9/getting_things_straight/</ref> Ultimately, the leader of Aegina had to be pearled, which the Phoenix Council agreed to.

In August 2014, Lowtuff pioneered founded NDZ's COOL DESERT COLONY.<ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/Danzilona/comments/2e0r05/i_am_now_the_cool_desert_mayor_of_the_cool_desert/</ref> The CDC was the second NDZ territory in the Mt. Augusta region after [[Riverford]] and was a popular destination spot for vacationing Danzilonans. Lowtuff designed the cactus farm which was not actually built until 5 months after the CDC's founding.<ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/Danzilona/comments/2e0io3/dzf_cactus_farm_design/</ref> Around the same time, Lowtuff also founded the religion known as Deathsquare.<ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/Danzilona/comments/2h1fyz/psa_avatar_of_a_lesser_deathsquare_being_summoned/</ref><ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/Danzilona/comments/2e0r05/i_am_now_the_cool_desert_mayor_of_the_cool_desert/</ref> Deathsquare would thereafter become the official religion of Tropica when Lowtuff joined Tropica as a dual citizen in October 2014.

Like many long-time Danzilonans, Lowtuff helped plan out NDZ'sthe plansnext iteration of Danzilona for 3.0, which finalised in the founding of Nova Danzilona in the shard of [[Volans]].<ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/Danzilona/comments/40dth9/how_will_we_go_about_planning_for_30/</ref> Lowtuff was still involved with mapping, but less so with diplomacy, and their short-lived career came to an end after 3.0 ended just 2 months into its existence.

Lowtuff took part in the founding of Provincia in the summer of 2017, becoming a moderator of its subreddit, but was not very active in any of its subsequent activities. When Lowtuff did play, however, they built an unknown number of statues of themselves in various places across Provincia and the server. It was not until almost 4 years later when Lowtuff was inspired to become active again and found the city of Carson as a homage to the Civcraft 2.0 city of the same name. The hole for Carson was completed in June 2021 after 2 months of digging.<ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/o9a5ag/dread_it_run_from_it_carson_arrives_all_the_same/</ref> During their time as leader of Carson, however, Lowtuff would be pearled by the [[Mutual Assistance Command|MAC]] a number of times, first for randomspawning in the vault of [[Imperial Truidence]] and then for allegedly trespassing in [[Mir]]. Lowtuff did not enter the borders of Mir, but the current mapping technology inherently revealed blocks within their borders, which theyMAC erroneously booked them for. Lowtuff was finally released during [[Pearled Harbor]], immediately repearled by [[Hjaltland]], and then released once again to take part in the End of the World party.

In early 2020, Lowtuff was invited via Reddit DMs to join the [[Industrial Workers of the World|IWW]] by [[RainOfPain125|Rainie]], who wanted to bring in older Civcraft leftists who were associated with the [[LSIF]]. Lowtuff visited the city of Tolstoy and established a residence there but became inactive after only a few days.

Lowtuff helped found the city of Merthyr with former CCCP friends, playing only occasionally to help with others' build projects. Lowtuff secretly buried [[ChocChips]] 3 (3) times while they were AFK in MethyrMerthyr.
