==About me==
==About me==
Hi! My name is Minda and I'm a freetime Minecrafter from Sweden who joined Dogcraft in August of 2020. After some confusion I began my active playing about a month later, this being the first SMP I've joined to play actively.
Hi! My name is Minda and I joined Dogcraft on Aug 1st 2020 during Survival 4.
==On Dogcraft==


=====Noteblock Songs=====
Minda is mostly known for her [[Mindas Musical Contraptions|musical noteblock contraptions]], a project she's been working on independently and in collaboration with other players all around the server since December of 2020.


When Minecraft rose to new popularity thanks major YouTube gamers picking up the game on their channels in early 2019 it caught my interest. Intrigued, I also started watching Grian's Hermitcraft Season 6, and later caught up with several of the other Hermits videos. RenDog, Scar, Bdubs and False quickly became my favourite Hermits along with Grian, all of whom has undoubtedly had a major influence on my building style.
The main idea behind the project is to put music into the world with the main focus not being on the contraption itself, but for it to add to the theme and immersion of the surrounding builds and landscape. During Survival 4 the project reached 21 contraptions of which the notable Spooky ''Halloween Music Quiz'' was featured in {{Player|Renthedog}}'s festive Halloween community Stream on October 30th, 2021.


During the summer of 2019 I decided to give the game a go and I have been hooked ever since!
=====Survival 4 base=====
[[Ingrid Islands]], located in the sea ca. 3200 blocks south of Husky Spawn, was an island-style base with historically inspired buildings and vessels scattered around. Its main feature was a villa inspired by a real house built in 1902, but dressed up in a Tudor-look. The central staircase in its tower reached all the way down to bedrock, sprouting several corridors and rooms leading to storage, farms and themed areas like a music hall and memento archives.


Getting tired of only playing by myself I started looking for SMP's to play on, and after hearing RenDog talking about the DogCraft server I decided to give it a ago, and fell in love with the helpful and kind community.
Ingrid Islands was featured in the [https://youtu.be/-nC9hKHBZlE?list=UUY_fngPiWqnTutlZA1_cWbg 1 year anniversary stream] on April 10th 2021.
 
 
I am a creative person with a background in music/teaching and I love to dabble my nose into most aspects of the gameplay, whether it be building, redstone, exploring, armourstands or even commandblocks. I do also like to create lore and stories around my major projects!
 
==On Dogcraft==
Starting out on Husky in Survival 4 I went north from spawn by horseback, trying to find a good place for a starter base. However, after some confusion, and being a bit overwhelmed I took a short time away from the server. When I returned I decided to start over and went South on the SRN, heading for a small island south west of Alpine Station which I had scouted out on the map.


There I founded Ingrid Island(s) ~[x -825, z 3260], upon which I built Villa Ingrid, a harbour and a ship which I named Moonriver (after Jacob Collier's Grammy awarded cover). Most of the base is located underground, with rooms and farms connected to the tower stairwell reaching all the way down to bedrock, as well as a nether portal with a tunnel connecting to the south NTN line. At the time of writing the base has been further expanded is still being worked on.
===== Survival 5 base =====
[[Lilyrose Valley]], located ca. 3800 blocks south-west of Corgi spawn, is a fairy fantasy-style base founded by Minda in late April of 2022. It features buildings of various organic shapes alike mushrooms, leaves, curves and curls in a coherent block palette of greys, whites, greens, browns, and reds.

* After finding an unclaimed '''''End Portal''''' at ~[x 213, y 14519] I began working on a large scale project to decorate the area by opening up the portal to the sky in a deep pit with a spiraling staircase leading all the way down. During the digging I found a '''''Skelly Spawner''''' close by which I converted into a farm for XP and skelly drops.  As other projects came up the portal build has been set aside but plans are still brewing.
===Server Ranks===
* Finding a free plot in the mall I seized the opportunity and created my shop '''''Minda's Nicknacks''''' where I sell -well you might have guessed it- nicknacks! Mostly gardening related things. Havning this shop has given me more inspiration to create farms for items which I can keep in stock.
{{Rank|Helper}} June 1st - Sept 4th 2021 (currently and technically the only helper to have served three terms in the ranks [[Helper|history]])
* In direction east of the End Portal you can find my '''''Creeper farm''''' ~[x 384, z 14553] - a large square pit in the ocean bay, an adapted version of LogicalGeekBoy's 1.15 design. During the construction @Chriziisch kindly lent me sponges to empty the ocean, and @FretboardFreak helped me out with the redstone clock controlling the water dispensers.
* Further east of these locations sits my '''''Flower farm''''' ~[x 1366, z 14365]. My own half-automatic design with 12 modules connected to an automatic storting system.
* In december 2020 I explored the realm of creating noteblock songs and then built '''''The Christmas Wishing Well''''' ~[x 6646, z -787] which I intended to enter into the Christmas Decoration Competition. However I did not finish it in time, but it is still open and you can visit by going to ''phome/The Christmas Wishing Well.'' A known christmas tune will play after a player throws something into the candy cane well.
* During the Christmas event I met ''@JakeMnlo'' and ''@Lauratje19'' whom I soon became friends with. After an instance of griefing at ''@JakeMnlo's'' base we came toghether as a group with ''@PerskyPuff'' to clean up and re-decorate the cave and set up a farm around the spawner; the '''''Deep Sea Navigator's Cave'''''. As a group we're called ''Deep Sea Navigator's Fleet Officials,'' my Captain name being ''Minda of Moonriver''. Together we also worked on draining and digging out an ocean monument for a prismarine farm.
* Wanting to contribute more to the community I applied to become a citizen of Gaia in feb. 2021, building up '''''La Casa Musicale''''' ~[x -1644, y 64, z -386], a small concert hall with a bar, located on the opposite side of the canale to the library.

Noteblock Songs

Minda is mostly known for her musical noteblock contraptions, a project she's been working on independently and in collaboration with other players all around the server since December of 2020.

The main idea behind the project is to put music into the world with the main focus not being on the contraption itself, but for it to add to the theme and immersion of the surrounding builds and landscape. During Survival 4 the project reached 21 contraptions of which the notable Spooky Halloween Music Quiz was featured in 20.png Renthedog's festive Halloween community Stream on October 30th, 2021.

Survival 4 base

Ingrid Islands, located in the sea ca. 3200 blocks south of Husky Spawn, was an island-style base with historically inspired buildings and vessels scattered around. Its main feature was a villa inspired by a real house built in 1902, but dressed up in a Tudor-look. The central staircase in its tower reached all the way down to bedrock, sprouting several corridors and rooms leading to storage, farms and themed areas like a music hall and memento archives.

Ingrid Islands was featured in the 1 year anniversary stream on April 10th 2021.

Survival 5 base

Lilyrose Valley, located ca. 3800 blocks south-west of Corgi spawn, is a fairy fantasy-style base founded by Minda in late April of 2022. It features buildings of various organic shapes alike mushrooms, leaves, curves and curls in a coherent block palette of greys, whites, greens, browns, and reds.
