The Purge

The Purge is the "spiritual successor" of Spawn Incursions. The term “Incursion” had been retired due to the failures of the 7th Incursion, the defamation of the term during the attempted 8th Incursion, and Sato86 calling for Incursions to be over. Since then, the community had tried to avoid using the term and declaring another similar event as the onslaught of new players joined due to the YouTube algorithm and sudden resurgence in Minecraft. When YouTube streamer Etika joined the server and continued streaming, the first phase of the Purge begun when it was evident that a mass killing of newfags was unavoidable as Etika had declared war on the community.

The Foundation of the Purge
As the invasion of Etika and his fans clogged the queue along with previous players joining from the Minecraft craze, Etika poked at the idea of flat out starting the 9th Incursion, with fans spamming “9cursion” in stream and server chat. Some players resorted to a rebranding of the Incursion name, such as the first Recursion, to counteract the Etika fanbase. However, these attempts quickly failed. The Purge would later be initially invented in the Spawn Mason discord, with members creating ideas of what could succeed an Incursion. It was not until May 27th, 2019, that policemike55 opened the Purge discord to the public with the purpose to exterminate all new players at spawn.

Phase I
The Etika Purge

Duration: May 27th, 2019 - June 16th, 2019

The first Phase begun along with the opening of the discord to the public on May 27th, 2019. The original generals of the Purge were policemike55, ufocrossing, hermeticlock, and TheDark_Emperor. The first announcement by policemike55 made it clear that the purpose of the discord was solely to eradicate new players and discourage them from joining. The Purge would later be organized into 4 (and later 5) separate regiments, each with different tasks and assigned leaders. The first regiment (The Lava Role, later the Water Role) was originally dedicated to building a lava wall around the 2000 block radius of spawn, making it more difficult to traverse the trench made in the 7th Incursion. However, due to encounters with the Anti-Incursion that slowed progress, the regiment was reassigned to the removal of water and surface lakes within 2000 blocks of their designated quadrants. The second regiment (The Highway Role) was responsible for the destruction of all highway in the general spawn area to make it difficult for new players to traverse. The third regiment (The Lag Role) was responsible for the lagging of the server to render it unplayable for both newer players and Etika and to use any sort of disconnection exploit. The fourth regiment (The Patrol/Portal Role) was dedicated to spawn patrol, the killing of newfags, general pvp encounters with the later Anti-Incursion, and the destruction of Nether portals around spawn. The fifth regiment (The Base Hunt Role), which was added later during the Phase, was dedicated to the searching and destruction of any farms or bases that would benefit new players within a 10K spawn radius.

The Purge's operations had been successful for the first few days, with the lava wall beginning constuction, highways and portals quickly being destroyed, and the third regiment managing to constantly lag the server, especially during Etika's streams. It would be a nuissance enough for Etika to even threaten to "lag the server back" despite him not realizing it would only affect his fanbase. It would not be until May 30th, 2019, that the Purge would face its first real opposition, the Anti-Incursion. Many of the members of this iteration were denied entry to the Purge, similarly to how many were also kicked from the 7th Incursion. The Anti-Incursion had been determined to undo all Purge operations, such as rebuilding highways, relighting portals, and destroying the lava wall. They were also determined to helping newfags escape spawn. The Anti-Incursion had been successful in hindering the progress of the lava wall, with several sections of the wall casted into cobblestone. This forced the Purge to cease focus on the wall operation and would be done secretly later on. Their would also be several spawn encounters between the two parties, with several casualties at times.

As the Purge raged on, Slippery, an Anti-Incursion member, had his stash blown up on June 3rd, 2019, by Emperium members as they had gotten a hold of one of his alt accounts. spawn encounters continued to be prevalent with the Anti-Incursion making several montages and videos, giving a false sense of success that would even confuse Fit into believing the conflict had been mostly one sided, when it was actually mostly leveled. This would cause several members of the Purge to begin retaliating with their own videos and montages. The Anti-Incursion would

Throughout the Purge, several generals had stepped down and several overseers would take their places. One of the larger step downs was that of policemike55, who on June 5th, 2019, was exposed by iTristan to be a fake policemike55. The fake policemike55 would later leave the discord without a word, with several of the members confused. Other general step downs and promotions included, hermeticlock (stepped down), Scribblefoxx (promoted), TheGrandLotus (promoted and stepped down), JayAmazingness (promoted and stepped down), and ThejumpyblazeFTW (promoted).

The Purge is a faction dedicated to stop Etika and Fit, although the groups efforts are not considered notable, as events at spawn are the same as usual. It has been found that players are receiving items from others, making their escape easy, so the Purge in general should be considered as a smaller event of the Etika Invasion.

The Purge's primary rivals are considered to be Fit and Etika respectively, as well as their fanbases, the former due to siding with Etika. Fit has declared himself that he will help Etika get gear and get settled in 2b2t, while Etika plans to build a "9 base" for he and his fans to get on. Etika has often been seen stuck at queue during his livestreams, and he views Fit's videos to pass the time. The server has also been bombarded with lag machines even if Etika is not online.
