Boatmurdered

Boatmurdered was an extremely old group base on 2b2t founded by Andrew_Gill, with its origins thought to be in mid-late 2011. It is known for its vast size, wealth (to a degree), and power in numbers and in relation to other groups.

Pre-Founding
Following the departure of Andrew_Gill and his friends from a small and barely documented town named "Brones" in mid-2011, a new base began in the works; Boatmurdered.<ref name="YouTube" Boatmurdered's origins come from a game story in Dwarf Fortress, dubbed the "Chronicles of Boatmurdered." You can find a video of the original game in Dwarf Fortress here.

Founding
Andrew_Gill and his crew began founding of the base in September of 2011, as Andrew's first and final permanent residence. <ref name="Reddit" The newly established group wanted to pay homage to the stories of Boatmurdered, so, in fashion, created their base underground, with construction beginning in September of 2011. Construction would last into November, where the base began to get documented.

Height of Power
At their peak, it is reported Boatmurdered had nearly 20-30 players active at the base. . The base also had a mass transit system and an enormous amount of Vines, which, at the time, were an extremely rare commodity that was new to the server. Soon, the group had good relations with the Fellowship of the Diamond (more specifically the residents at Diamond Town) and the Dwarves.

During the peak of the base's power in December of 2011, the group, along with the Diamond Town residents, the Dwarves, popbob, and other individuals led a large occupation of spawn. The cooperating individuals and groups were creating mass lavacasts and bombing out large sections of spawn pits. At the time period, new players who joined spawned on top of a 15x15 obsidian platform, which is where the group concentrated their invasion of spawn at. The occupation lasted 4 days before Hausemaster had to intervene to remove the lavacasts so newplayers could escape as usual.

Decline
Boatmurdered's residents would move on and split up. Andrew and others would take suspect residents to a base dubbed "Stoneforge," while Core768 would take others to a base titled "Rhodes." Stoneforge acted as a decoy to retract attention from the main base, Rhodes. Stoneforge was later infiltrated by CytotoxicTcell.

Boatmurdered would be damaged by the winds of time. It began to decay and turned into a concentrated pile of ruins. Some notable griefers were Sato86, fubster, xarviar, and Jacktherippa.
