Stream Town (Survival 1)
From Dogcraft Wiki
Template:Infobox City TemplateStream Town was a major settlement in the Survival 1 world of Dogcraft. It was the scene of mass attention and building activity for a time in the community in the early-mid period of it's world and still stands as one of the biggest settlements in any dogcraft world.
Establishment
Stream Town was founded during a livestream by server owner and YouTuber, ReNDoG (in-game username renthedog). During this livestream, he began at spawn and explored the city there, before adventuring further northwest. After finding some fresh land, he proclaimed the beginning of a new town, Stream Town, with the intention that it would the site of weekly streams to monitor it's progress as a build and landmark for players.
Then headmods, StaircaseClimber and victix11 quickly set about building the basic infrastructure for the town. Streets were arranged in a simple, grid-like pattern and given names relating to ReNDoG's survival series of the time or minecraft features. Each plot had a mailbox on the sidewalk and upon claiming a plot, a headmod would place that player's minecraft skin head in an item frame on the box.
An amount of land just north of the city was allocated for ReNDoG to build a castle for himself as part of the weekly streams.
Stream Town 'Boom'
The allure of creating a build visible to ReNDoG was strong for most on the server and this led to unprecedented activity in the new town. Plots were quickly claimed and built on before the first stream, and a City Hall was built by StaircaseClimber. Some of the earlier and most recognisable builds included _edo's city block featuring a very tall and distinctive tower, Scooberson's windmill, victix11's large cake house and baaskip's hobbit hole, among others.
