DumbleDog's Mountaintop Abode
Once again, DumbleDog builds upon a mountaintop, to look down upon everything.
This house did come with a basement, situated far far down into the earth. It was a
workshop built out of copper blocks that slowly oxidised over the course of the
server's life. Inside, were Create machines like mixers and crushing wheels. There was
also another lesser-known, but still just as important machine.
The elevator going down to the gallery and workshop had ready access to be tampered
with, leading to many people slowing it right down, creating an excruciatingly long
ride to the surface.
Gallery
There was a gallery built out of quartz, that featured many frutiger-aero themed
pictures on the wall.
Chefting Machine
The chefting machine was a joint project between DumbleDog and I. It was hidden behind
a false wall. The initial view of it from a first time visitor was a conglomerate of
create blocks spinning and seizing in nonsensical ways, such as a saw blade that
rotated in a circle instead of spinning.
There was an input depot for a player to put there item to get it "chefted".
The item would then go along a belt, and the player could follow it's journey from
behind the safety of a glass wall. The item would then be washed by a series of
sprinklers, blow dried by some industrial fans.
The item would take a sharp turn into another room and fall onto another belt, this
one controlled by the QA officer, a chicken. The belt would only advance if the
chicken decided to stand on a pressure plate in his quarters, as quality assurance is
key in this stage.
Once the item made it past QA, it would be presented on another depot, but it's
journey was not yet over, as this was a manual process where the user would be given
the choice of 5 anonymous belts for the item to continue chefting. These belts lead
into a large room with a myriad of belts leading in all directions. The player would
enter through a different doorway, with trapdoors putting the player into crawl mode,
and they could look through the glass ceiling to see if the belt they picked was
direct or convoluted.
Unfortunately, the chefting machine was never completed and the server world files
have been confirmed lost.
