Survival X2 is a part of a series of servers hosted by Kristy Fournier.
Files
Whitelist
The most recently saved files have an empty whitelist
Logs
The log dates span from 2021-10-06 to 2021-10-18, but these don't match the suspected start dates for the server. Because the files for the server were moved around hosting sites[1] only the world and plugin files were taken and a new server setup was used, explaining the missing logs.
World Files
The earliest world file is from 2019-10-05. The earliest version indicated in the files is 1.14.4, and the latest is 1.17.1.[2] Despite this, not much playtime was actually put into the server in the 1.17.1 update, with only the town area actually being updated.
History
Origin (2019-10-05/2020-08-20)
Minecraft servers were brought up by Kristy in discords as early as 2019-02-28[3]. The earliest files for Survival X2 only go back to 2019-10-05, so it is unlikely these messages referred to Survival X2. There were servers run by Kristy before Survival X2, but none were ever officially named. The name "Survival X2" clearly implies an "X1", which would have been the previous survival server she owned, but this was a retronym. "X2" in this case is being used to mean "Version 2".
On 2020-08-20 the first mention of a server being referred to as Survival X2 was made in the "Jackbox Bois" Discord groupchat[1]
Cheats
I have had OP on all of these servers at some point, and am usually not against cheating in items or using locate for specific biomes, to make the game easier and more fun. This was the worst of it, and I played more legitimately as time went on, but I still would if I wanted to or needed to so I could keep having fun.
World
The design of this world is very centralised, and though some portions of the outer world were explored, very few bases outsite the main area were built.
Overworld
The main area is based around a spawn point inside a small hut containing command blocks that were intended to change the time to day or night, or change the weather to clear. These could be used by any player.
Outside the spawn room you can see a small town of a few houses, some farms for melons, carrots, and chickens, a beacon on top of the “Minecraft eqivelant of seaworld”, a giant storage building, and a large caged in village. The houses belonged to myself (pictured), Owen, and another person who might have been B33pr, an old online friend I used to have. Floating above the town is a wood platform that acted as Zach’s base. In addition, the dragon egg is central in a display case, probably one of best parts of this server and it’s design. This design was later recreated in charavere on the Epic SMP Season 3.77 for that server's egg.
This server was created just after the release of 1.14, and was sort of the “test server” for the new features. Since the release of 1.12.2 Kristy had been using it as her main version, and before that using 1.8 to play with her uncle. Because of this, some of the design came from this being a new version for people on the server. The mystery house has waterlogged stairs surrounding it, and there are lanterns scattered around the town. The things that Kristy built to take advantage of the new update were the villager breeder, and storage building. The villager breeder was a design Kristy found on youtube, and from the same youtuber she also made an iron farm and gold farm. The breeder led to an enormous village created partially using worldedit and duplicating houses she had already constructed. The storage building took advantage of barrels to have super tall stacked storage, but was really just an excuse to use them, and was also full of lanterns.
The only known "base" outside of the main area is the fishing house. The fishing hut was a building slightly outside the town and is made of random garbage blocks, a sign of being built by Kristy. It has a plain oak door to get inside, and the inside contains a small pond, and no lighting inside. The lack of lighting is likely a result of Kristy's use of fullbright, and the server being on easy difficulty.[4]
Nether
The nether had command blocks to get to and from a gold farm on the nether roof, that was entirely constructed in creative or using cheats, as it used wither roses and magma blocks, neither of which the players had collected manually.
