==CivClassic 2.0's SamBonusG==
'''SamBonusG,''' also known as '''MrBonusgrad,''' was a [[Mount September|Septembrian]] miner who could usually be found in [[Mount September]] flying from the rooftops or riding [[Persephone]], his trusty steed that was always donned in diamond horse armor. When he wasn't in [[Mount September]], he was usually working at [[Lazuli Oceanic HQ]] in the southeast ocean. He first spawned in the server near [[Icenia]], but was quickly ostracized from that community due to an infamously ugly house that he built there. After fleeing to [[Mount September|Mount September,]] he lived the life of a raider and got into some trouble with prominent countries. His first pearling was at the hands of [[Mir|Mir,]] after jumping into their vault trench to do what he referred to as "bastion mining", a term that became a meme amongst the [[Mount September|Septembrian]] culture as a symbol of the bold nature of newfriends that have no concept of the laws of Civ yet. Later he would get into issues with many other prominent countries, including [[IMC]] and [[Imperial Truidence]].

In June of 2023, SamBonusG voluntarily stepped down from his six-month tenure as top official and mayor of Lambat City, seceding the position to [[AKJanklin]]. He cited his drastic focus shift to [[New September|New Septembrian]] development, as well as his slowing down into a state of near inactivity due to his oldfriend age, as the reasons for this decision. By July of 2023, he had developed several buildings that became iconic to the Lambat City and [[New September]] skylines. This included aesthetic marvels such as [[Lazuli Tower 2.0]] and the New September Voting Tree, as well as the country's first diamond-ore exchange in the Bank of New September.
In August of 2023, Lambat was in the middle of what is became known as the "Touching Grass Era". Many key players had started to lull towards inactivity, and as a result the 5th Metro Council Elections wielded less-the-serious victors. The newly elected council failed to come up with a vote for a new mayor of Lambat City, and so SamBonusG volunteered to become mayor once again.
President [[Kaprediem]] began to fall victim to the sickness of this dark era of player inactivity, leading to SamBonusG being appointed as acting president in order to fulfill the duties that the original president could no longer do. SamBonusG became the acting president of [[Lambat (CivMC)|Lambat]] for about three months, working to keep the nation alive through the troubling inactivity.
In March of 2024, SamBonusG made an official announcement to his country, stating that he had succumbed to the sickness of The Grass Age and was RP-dying. Two weeks later, he made a post to the CivMC subreddit that had a [https://www.reddit.com/r/CivMC/comments/1bqspca/my_civ_experience_a_memoir_by_sambonusg/ memoir of his entire Civ experience attached.] This marked the official end of his Civ career. He buried himself in a tomb in [[Pioneer Village (LRT)|Pioneer Village,]] next to Dark Horse Stables, one of the first structures he had built on this iteration of Civ.
==Significant Events on CivClassic 2.0==
Line 38 ⟶ 46:
In June of 2021, SamBonusG had begun to do heavy mining under the [[Lazuli Tower]]. Mining in such a populated area caused him to run in to various abandoned rails and bunkers. However, an ice road that SamBonusG had mistaken for abandoned and unfinished lead him to begin breaking into the vaults connected to said ice road, in the hopes of finding loot that had been abandoned. After spending some time breaking down reinforced bricks, SamBonusG realized the place might not have been abandoned, and left snitches behind so he could track activity. Sure enough, [[UDF]] officals found his snitches and ordered the extradition of SamBonusG from the government of [[Mount September]]. A standoff ensued, as [[Naglafer]] arrived at [[Mount September]] to hunt down SamBonusG to no avail, though a stir was caused when threats of horse slaughter occurred. Eventually the trial was held without SamBonusG ever being pearled, and the sentence was simply a fine with no pearl time.
====
In September of 2021, SamBonusG placed a dereliction sign on a property owned by [[Minemaster933]] in hopes of opening a diamond exchange center. The dereliction was denied by the owner, to which SamBonusG responded with an immediate second dereliction. This sign was removed after government officials had made it clear that rapid derelictions were illegal. On September 24, [[Minemaster933]] pearled 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 to pay reparations to SamBonusG.<br>

====MTA Exotic Build Residence====
One of the first properties ever claimed in [[Mount Augusta (CivMC)|Mount Augusta]], a colorful house made from all sorts of exotic material. [[Mount Augusta (CivMC)|MtA]] residents tend to leave complimentary signs on the property. It has a statue of the flag of [[Mount September]] perched on its roof, in honor of the [[Mount September|"Septembrian Elite"]] that were exiled from the country following the election of [[ComradeNick]]. Although the property was claimed in early June of 2022, the house was not actually built until October. Until then, a much uglier house made of sandstone occupied the territory, as a parallel to the first house SamBonusG ever built on the previous civ iteration in [[Icenia (CivClassic 2.0)|Icenia]].
Established in October of 2022.
[[File:MTA Exotic House.png|left|thumb|SamBonusG's residence in MtA is made up of exotic material that includes crimson, warped wood, quartz, blackstone, magma, moss, spore blossoms, sea lanterns, lapis lazuli, and redstone.]]

Established in November of 2022.
