The anarchy record provisional seed corpus
Anarchy Minecraft is a scene that routinely loses, rewrites, or weaponizes its own records. This archive keeps a prelaunch chronology instead: each provisional story is dated and labeled with its claimed evidence class, but resolvable source IDs and citations are not attached yet.
Sequence A era register
The rail is chronology, not decoration. Read left to right on wide screens and top to bottom on narrow ones.
Sequence B event register
Each record names its evidence tier and its gaps. The tier is an editorial state, not a substitute for the citations still required by ARC-1.

Under influx load, 2b2t gains its now-famous join queue in June 2016, followed by paid priority access. Waiting in line becomes part of the server’s identity — and, eventually, an economy of its own.

In August 2017, 2b2t leaves its long-held older version for 1.12. The move opens years of the community’s most storied era — and begins the world’s longest technical freeze, as 1.12.2 becomes home for six more years.

On 14 August 2023 — after six years on 1.12.2 — 2b2t jumps to 1.19.4, crossing The Flattening, a world-format overhaul, two Java runtime jumps, and the chat-signing era in a single migration.
