Creeper Gunpowder Farm

Before it was a creeper farm it was a secret. In July 2024 prop told the server he was building a “top secret project” and would add it “the next time we restart” ¹, and within ten days nYx announced “Already know what it is” ². The leak turned out to be right: by 4 October prop was explaining that the project was “to make a creeper farm” ³.

The base was a low-resource automatic gunpowder farm from a YouTube tutorial ⁴, which prop then redesigned his own way. Instead of hiding the machine in a black box, he wanted the farm to be the decoration: a castle-style build shaped like a creeper face, with the working parts left visible as part of the architecture. He posted the finished tower, seen from afar at night, with the line “and thats a project complete” ⁵. The chat suggests kira helped him build it on 6 October.

The farm started paying out at once. The readers recorded more than three double chests of gunpowder in a single day, even though a missed carpet had let spiders into the spawning area. That day also taught prop a lesson he passed on to everyone:

note: never make a farm like this without planning ahead for the storage system too ⁶
