==Biography==
'''Minemaster933''', also known as '''BinaryToast1''' or simply "Minemaster" is a CivClassics player who become well-known on the server after being accused and convicted of crimes against multiple nations in November - December 2020. Currently pearled by [[Eddie Murphy]], Minemaster is working to pay off extensive reparations for his crimes and appears to be making a genuine effort to improve his international standing.
 
=== Early days in CivClassics (December to March 2021) ===
 
====False Theft Accusations by Eddie Murphy====
== History ==
On December 31 2020, 48 diamond blocks inexplicably went missing from the in-progress [[Eddie Murphy]] vault. Lacking direct evidence as to the culprit's identity as a result of subpar snitching, [[Eddie Murphy]] accused minemaster933 of the theft based on circumstantial evidence (his access to Murphian namelayer groups, as well as further-away snitch hits provided by [[Kayla]]). On January 4, minemaster933 was tried by [[Eddie Murphy]] in "comedy court" (in which the defendant was asked "to give his the defense of why he is 'Funny'"), and ordered to repay the 432 diamonds which he was convicted of stealing.<br>
On March 23, [[Anyakova]] (among two successor states to [[Eddie Murphy]]) learned and immediately revealed that the snitch hits used to convict minemaster933 were [https://www.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/mbryyb/on_a_recent_revelation/ falsified by Kayla], proving minemaster933 innocent of the crime for which he was chiefly known. The damage to minemaster933's reputation as a result of three months of false guilt, however, did not fully heal.
====Expulsion Joiningfrom Icenia ====
On January 4 2021, [[SoundTech]] filed suit against minemaster933 in an [[Icenia]]n court; in an unusual request, [[SoundTech]] did not demand any pearl time, but rather the revocation of minemaster933's [[Icenia]]n citizenship "under a special case as described in IV.B [of the Icenian constitution], to remove an active threat to [[Icenia]]". [[SoundTech]] cited "the obsidian phallus debacle with [[FreeStyleJr]]", "the stealing of [[Amelorate]]'s precious workbench", "the shitfest with [[Eddie Murphy]]", "the recent court case with @mason", and "harmed...external relations of [[Icenia]] and [[Eddie Murphy]], as well as [harmed] internal relations of [[Icenia]] and [[Columbia]] within the [[UDF]]"; Judge [[FreeStyleJr08]], however, only cited the fact that "Minemaster has expressed that he doesn't even want to be here anymore" in his ruling, revoking his citizenship.<br>
As of the end of March of 2021, Minemaster has been cleared of his crimes in Icenia<ref>[[ChrisChrispie]] lifts ban on Minemaster : [https://old.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/mbujdh/in_response_to_some_hilarious_false_allegations/gs02rv1/ https://reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/mbujdh/in_response_to_some_hilarious_false_allegations/gs02rv1/] ; "“Find me proof”. I’d like to thank you Kayla. From now on I’ll have a stronger backbone when protecting my citizens, up to and including pearling people who fake logs to ruin them internally. Minemaster robbed in Icenia and was a perpetual problem for our court systems , but it sure is stupid that trusted allies of Icenia sold him down the river so EM could cover their asses after not being able to manage a group properly. Pathetic." ; Retrieved on 24 March 2021</ref> however, he still owes reparations to Juniortide for breaking into his house.
====Involvement in Gul-Veldt Conflict====
During the [[DUMP]]'s ill-fated attempt to arbitrate the [[Gul]]-[[Veldt]] border conflict on February 4 2021, minemaster933 hypothesized to [[Veldt]] leader [[Camokool]] that "that [[Eddie Murphy|people]] may be trying some funny business", resulting in [[Camokool]] quitting negotiations and "object[ing] to anything and everything [[Gul]] has to counter claim", and leading to the [[One-Hour War]]. This resulted in his expulsion from [[Dormount]] (through which he had had access to [[DUMP]] internal channels).
 
=== Period of rehabilitation (March to June 2021) ===
=== Joining Icenia ===
For a quarter of 2021, minemaster933 became a somewhat player in CivClassics, joining the state of Mount September and building several structures such as an unfinished apartment row. Minemaster933, who was citied as an example of a rehabilitated newfriend "shitter", became a citizen [[Lambat (CivClassic 2.0)|Lambat]] and briefly served as its Minister of Defense, until June 2021.
 
====Leadership of New Sovia====
=== Icenia December 2020 Elections ===
On March 30 2021, minemaster933 re-established New [[Sovia]] (formerly [[Pirater]]'s nation) from its old capital of Ceylon. Due to New [[Sovia]]'s previous challenges with [[weepee|powerful nations on CivClassic]], which placed a big target on him from the [[Weepee]]<ref>{{Cdisc|sender-link=Metriximor|sender=Metriximor|date=30 March 2021|url=https://discord.com/channels/810436686021394492/814024376004771850/826582160411852800|text=minemaster is already fucked lol|channel=foreign-office-lobby|server=Lambat|access-date=10 September 2021|screenshot-link=https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/561592328243118086/885839426545127444/unknown.png}}</ref>.
 
=== Relapse and controversies (June 2021 - ongoing) ===
=== Eddie Murphy Diamond Heist ===
 
====Brief Pearling by IMC====
=== Stripping of Icenian Citizenship===
On June 14 2021, [[Imperial Mountain of Casson]] briefly pearled minemaster933 in [[Mount September]] and took his pearl home for unknown reasons. [[IMC]] unpearled him later the same day.
====Kayla-minemaster933 Bounty Crisis====
On July 26 2021, in a [https://www.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/os8hhb/not_hsm_kill_kill_kill_kill_kill/ Reddit post] titled "Not [[Jargon#hsm|hsm]] [[kill]] [[kill]] [[kill]] [[kill]] [[kill]]", minemaster933 demanded that [[Kayla]] (who had been revealed four months prior to have framed minemaster933 for stealing 432 diamonds from [[Eddie Murphy]]) reimburse him the remainder of his unjust reparations payment - 332 diamonds ([[Kayla]] had reimbursed minemaster933 a prot set (worth 100 diamonds at the time) by the order of [[ChrisChrispie]] the day that her malfeasance was revealed, subtracting this from the total). He placed a 75 diamond bounty on [[Kayla]]'s pearl in order to facilitate this reimbursement.<br>
[[KnotNSA]] of [[Columbia]] responded 6 hours later with [https://www.reddit.com/comments/osf0my a 200 diamond bounty on minemaster933]. After 14 hours, Having already dodged an assassination attempt by [[SrMango]] minemaster933 then [https://www.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/osqs2v/announcement_of_bounties_and_pos_markings/ increased his bounty on] [[Kayla]] [https://www.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/osqs2v/announcement_of_bounties_and_pos_markings/ to 275 diamonds, and bountied] [[KnotNSA]] [https://www.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/osqs2v/announcement_of_bounties_and_pos_markings/ for 175 diamonds as well]. 2 hours after that, [[K0mmi]] [https://www.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/ost159/more_bounties/ raised the] [[Columbia]][https://www.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/ost159/more_bounties/ n-][[Kallos]][https://www.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/ost159/more_bounties/ ian bounty on minemaster933 to 400 diamonds], [https://www.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/osun05/475_diamonds_for_the_pearl_of_minemaster933/ later 475], [https://www.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/ost159/more_bounties/ and added a 100 diamond bounty on "any individual who goes so far as to try and pearl knotnsa, Kaloa_HG or any other columbian"]. As [[FKA_Twink]] put it in the comments of each of these posts, [https://www.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/osqs2v/announcement_of_bounties_and_pos_markings/h6q8zb1?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3 "world tension increased"]. Both sides prepared for the worst, and [[Mount September]] retained [https://www.reddit.com/comments/ostf0m minemaster933 supporter] [[Gregy165]] as a defense consultant.<br>
On July 27, [https://www.reddit.com/comments/oswr42 minemaster933 dropped all of his bounties] after [[Kallos]]ian Jazz Committee member [[KingOfTheMochas]] repaid minemaster933 his 332 diamonds without [[Kayla]]'s consent (an action for which he was expelled from [[Kallos]]). However, [[K0mmi]] responded by [https://www.reddit.com/comments/oszwft hiking the counter-bounty to 500 diamonds, and placing a 150 diamond bounty on] [[NebulaSSR]] [https://www.reddit.com/comments/oszwft as well]. Following harsh backlash from [[Pirater]] and [[gregy165]] alike, [[K0mmi]] [https://www.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/otfhwx/no_more_bounties/ dropped all bounties on minemaster933] on July 28th.
====Mount September Ice Road Conflict====
{{Main|Mount September Ice Road Conflict}}
[[File:Nebula vs the world.png|thumb|A standoff between the Boomer Iceroad and [[NebulaSSR]]'s bunker]]
minemaster933 played a significant part in the [[Mount September Ice Road Conflict]], successfully suing [[SirTwiggles]] for harassment by means of @everyone snitches on August 14 2021. As a result, he was among three players [https://www.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/pccma8/get_off_my_lawn_zoomer_an_explanation_of/ banned from the Boomer Ice Road by] [[bgbba]].
====Illegal Kallosian Extradition in Mount September====
On September 2 2021, newfriend [[Chernobeel]] pearled minemaster933 as a joke in [[Mount September]]. However, [[Chernobeel]] later lost the pearl (still in his inventory) as a result of falling to his death while attempting parkour, where it was picked up by an unknown agent and delivered to [[Kallos]]'s [[Vault#The Ark/Arx Centauri (Kallos)|vault]]. Under Septembrian law, this was an illegal extradition; this resulted in [https://www.reddit.com/comments/phdq7u backlash] from [[Mount September]], the [[Augustan Federation]], and all others sympathetic to minemaster933 or Septembrian law, but no military action was prepared or taken.<br>
[[Kallos]] demanded as a condition of release that minemaster933 reveal his "main account" (predicated on a discredited conspiracy theory that minemaster933 is an alt account of another player such as [[Pirater]] or [[poortea]]) - effectively a [[Jargon#Permapearled|permapearl]] sentence.<br>
On September 5, minemaster933 declared that he was quitting CivClassic, remaining only in [[Mount September]]'s, [[New Sovia]]'s, and the [[Alliance of Nuevo Luzon]]'s Discord servers. This brought minemaster933's pearl, previously ignored by many, firmly into the spotlight.<br>
On September 6, minemaster933 officially sued the government of [[Kallos]] ([[Kayla]], [[Kicky]], [[Troll_Bebek]], [[ColdBoy000]] and [[ChickenWingGeek]]) for "violating section 1 of the Wrongs Act" in [[Mount September]], retaining [[Pirater]] as a lawyer. [[Kayla]] stated that "we'll be contesting the plaintiffs claims", and a trial began. On September 8, [[Neosaur|Neotide]] of [[Yoahtl]], in an attempt to help the [[UDF|UDF's]] and [[Yoahtl|Yoahtl's]] reputation, (although the incident was completely unrelated and the only people blaming the UDF were private individuals)<ref>WackyAki (6 September, 2021)https://www.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/pjf8a7/consistency_is_key_the_hypocritical_anti_wp/ Retrieved 29 September 2021.</ref> lied to a member of the Kallosian government and stated that "Kayla had authorized the extradition of minemaster933's pearl to Yoaht". [[Neosaur|Neotide]] then proceeded to free the pearl, He was later trialed in [[Yoahtl]] for intervening in International affairs with out having consulted other members of the Yoahtlan government, with said event occurring Kayla proceeded to state in the Mount September trial that "if the prosecution cannot prove that [[kallos]] has jurisdiction over minemasters pearl, then the claim that we are restricting minemasters autonomy is false" the lawsuit was quickly settled after that.
====Kickassian Insurrection====
{{Main|Eon Empire#The Kickassian Insurrection}}
Following the September 12 [https://www.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/pmz7yj/eon_is_finally_able_to_join_their_imperial/ Eon-Truidence merger], minemaster933 began to [https://www.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/pn5ibf/independence_day_final_stand/ gripe] about [[Imperial Truidence]] owning former [[Empire of Eddie Murphy|Murphian]] land. He formally acted on this chagrin on September 27, when he [https://www.reddit.com/comments/pwfa2d announced the claims of the "Free Republic of Kickassia"], which overlapped with those of Eon. minemaster933 cited as justification for this act of war that "the free republic of kickassia (also known as the sovereign nation of don’t touch my house) will defend her borders from all evil evil gross nasty odious putrid disgusting rotten truidences '[sic]'"; [[Imperial Truidence]] responded by [https://discord.com/channels/797908768297713722/805953175009624134/892518376151330886 destroying the house]. On September 30, minemaster933 was pearled (technically illegally) in [[Mount September]] by [[the__druid]], ending the Kickassian Insurrection. minemaster933 was freed as a consequence of his [https://www.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/q28axo/truidencian_and_kickassian_peace_achieved/ signing the Treaty of New Nexton] on October 5th.<br>
It was later revealed by minemaster933 on October 23 that the house in question "was not [his] house [he] wanted to cause drama".
====SamBonusG Spiking Incident====
[[File:Minemaster bunker break team.png|thumb|A team of [[Augustan Federation]] and [[Hjaltland]] players breaks minemaster933's spike]]
On September 24, minemaster933 pearled [[Mount September]] resident [[SamBonusG]], and spiked the pearl (placed the pearl in a [[Vault#Spike|Spike]]) in his personal bunker, citing improper dereliction procedure as [[SamBonusG]]'s provocation. A team of [[Augustan Federation]] and [[Hjaltland]] players broke into the bunker and freed the pearl almost immediately, but the ensuing court cases would last until October 14th. The pearling of [[SamBonusG]] and subsequent cracking of minemaster933's bunker set off two lengthy [[Mount September]] court cases - [https://discord.com/channels/742831212711772261/756569813316272188/892115536450830426 one in which SamBonusG sued minemaster933 for pearling him], and [https://discord.com/channels/742831212711772261/756569789845078077/892115174109085716 the other in which minemaster933 sued the break team for violating his bunker]. These historic cases both ended with verdicts against minemaster933 - he was found guilty in the former, while the break team was acquitted in the latter. minemaster933 was ordered to serve a ten-day pearl sentence, and responded by fleeing [[Mount September]].<br>
On October 14th, minemaster933 [https://www.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/q887ki/dear_rude_bingus/ posted 2000 diamond bounties] on [[KingOfTheMochas]] (the mayor of [[Mount September]] at the time) and [[AllenY]] (the judge who convicted him). These bounties were never pursued.<br>
On October 18th, minemaster933 visited [[South Augusta]], who - much to the chagrin of their [[Augustan Federation]] allies - harbored the fugitive minemaster933, and provided him with a safe exit from [[Geographical Regions#Greater Augusta|Greater Augusta]].
minemaster933 ultimately served his sentence from October 24 to November 3, 2021.
====Boomer Iceroad Obbybombing====
In [https://www.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/qdv4v9/freedom_for_civ/ an unexpected Reddit post titled "FREEDOM FOR CIV"] on October 22, minemaster933 claimed responsibility for the obbybombing (spamming of reinforced obsidian) of the [[Boomer Iceroad]] - a critical [[UDF]] iceroad. This offense broke from his previous ones in its severity, as obbybombing is [[International Resolution to Condemn the Obby Bombing of Cities|generally taken very seriously by CivClassic nations]]; indeed, the post implied that minemaster933 would quit Civ, stating in poetic verse that "today is the day [he] will disappear".<br>
The obbybombing provoked sharp condemnations from most of the server; players such as [[LIQUIDSTEREO]], [[JuniorTide]], [[ObtainableSpatula]], [[kaprediem]], [[Smal]], [[Ch1pR]], and [[Tiddy1806]] expressed dismay at minemaster933's actions, while more other players such as [[ashnwill]], [[SinjoroJoCrafter]], [[TheOrangeWizard]], and [[Pirater]] were supportive.<br>
FKA_Twink described the obbybombing as "15 IRO, 15, DRO maybe...not that bad", and located it "just south of [[MtS]], before [[Venne]]", the bombing also included a series of city bastions extending from the griefed area to the [[Confederation of Socialist Augusta|CSA]] in the south <ref>City Bastions placed by minemaster: [https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/608305448504000541/901760462566334464/2021-10-23_23.37.47.png screenshot]</ref>. Most of the damage was quickly cleaned up by [[UDF]] and [[Gabonese]] forces, the remaining bastions were independently cleaned up by CSA players a few days later.<br>
On October 23, minemaster933 appeared in [[Mount September]], stating that he "came to get pearled". [[FKA_Twink]] pearled minemaster933, and handed the pearl to [[Naglafer]] for delivery to [[Yoahtl]] (who claimed jurisdiction over the iceroad that minemaster933 obbybombed); however, [[Naglafer]] handed the pearl back to [[Mount September]], offering to let them execute their (significantly less severe) sentence on minemaster933 first, and then extradite minemaster933 to [[Yoahtl]] later. minemaster933's pearl was placed into the [[Augustan Federation]] [[Vault]] by [[KingOfTheMochas]] (despite minemaster933's protests that he "[didn't] want stinky mts government touching the pearl"), and his sentence began.
 
===List Makingof Reparations =aliases==
 
== List of aliases ==
Minemaster has a habit of frequently changing his Discord name in line with current memes or shitposts so it's often difficult to know when he is speaking to you. Here's an incomplete list of aliases he has used in the past:
* Minemaster933
* BinaryToast1
* Pirater (after jokingly admitting he was a [[Pirater]] alt)
*The Main Character of Civ (his continued success in spite of repeated attempts to pearl him has been likened to [https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/PlotArmor plot armor])
* explicitlexicon
 
==Reputation==
Minemaster933 has a controversial reputation in the CivClassic server, both accumulating praise and condemnation from his actions and behavior.
 
Admitting to a dangerous past of criminal activity, Minemaster933 has gone on record stating that they did not, in fact, steal the [[Eddie Murphy]] diamonds and that there is a larger issue at play. This was eventually proven true when [[Oko]] admitted that [[Kaloa HG]] had faked the evidence.<ref name=":0" /> To outside parties, [[EM]] had remained private about what evidence they possessed on the matter. During the public court trial against Minemaster933, EM made a point of mocking the defendant and those who came to question its legitimacy{{Cn}}.
 
In the early months of 2021, Minemaster933 was considered to have gone on to become a better Civ player. They have stated that they regret the criminal behaviours they partook in [[Icenia]], and want to become something more meaningful. Further, the Kingdom of [[Lusitania (CivClassic 2.0)|Lusitania]] backs that Minemaster933 is well on the road to reformation and a wholesome player{{Cn}}. However, to this day Minemaster continues to break into people's homes. Recent events such as the Boomer Iceroad Obbyombing may have further soured Minemaster's reputation in the community while and earned the condemnation of former allies, at the same time, attracting amusement and the creation of memes inspired by his shenanigans.
 
=== Effects on foreign policy ===
Minemaster's activities has had a significant effect over the reputation of Mount September. In some instances, Minemaster has been conflated with the government and the state of Mount September as a whole, despite not being in a position of power. To what extent whether these views are ironic or otherwise is unknown, because of the nature of Civ.
