Only three days later, on 19 December 2020, fastattacker17 invited some players from the [[New Earth]] build server to help develop the town. As the town became a popular topic in the in-game chat on both the build server and the stress test server, the population of the town nearly tripled with 5 new players intending to settle; the total amount was brought up to 8. | |||

Goosedale Valley, often referred to as 'Goosendale' or 'Goose Town', is a settlement and emerging town located at the edge of a large jungle, the bottom of the gravel mountains, and along an Unnamed River. It is named after krabbipatti314's late wolf and is currently undergoing construction to be a small town for a recreation spot for players, an urban environment for players to live in the mountains and jungle, and a distribution hub for resources such as redstone, cocoa beans, and cookies.
Led by fastattacker17 as mayor and its several administrators, the town currently has a population of 12 players across its many districts, with the total amount of players having property or business in the town at 13. Most of the region is currently under construction.
History
During the summer of 2020, fastattacker17 roamed the world living a nomadic lifestyle. There was struggle to finding a developed urban setting to live in. After passing by Wholesomeville and an unnamed lake town, on 26 September 2020, fastattacker17 settled at a large jungle tree located north of the developed towns and at the current location of Goosedale Valley. Chests were placed down at a newly built improvised treehouse marking the beginning of the settlement.
The Lost Era
In order to survive, the founder fastattacker17 decided to travel around the gravel mountains to search for food. This led to discovering other settlements nearby and a nether portal. This unfortunately led to his passing, and resulted in him being resurrected elsewhere. Due to him not acknowledging the coordinates nor using the map, the treehouse was lost and forced fastattacker17 to continue living a another nomadic lifestyle then temporarily move to Stresswhere while being nursed by Thiskal.
fastattacker17 then tried again to relocate his treehouse without using the map and using the towns he saw earlier as reference. After a few days of searching, he finally located his house and placed a blue bed to prevent such accidents occurring again.
The Appearance of a Nether Portal
An unexplained nether portal suddenly appeared on an unspecified date in the early fall which connected the area the treehouse was in with the nether highway system. The treehouse was no longer isolated and fastattacker17 was able to travel from his treehouse and to other towns and settlements. This further developed fastattacker17's ability to survive and would continue to visit Stresswhere for resources developing his settlement.
fastattacker17's Birthday and The Death of Goose
On 25 November 2020, he noticed a friend of his was lost in the wilderness. He asked if krabbipatti314 required assistance and needed a place to live. She finally made her way to the treehouse. The two then began mining at a nearby ravine, but a sudden ambush of mobs in the surrounding forest resulted in the violent death of one of her dog's, Goose.
25 November 2020 also happened to be fastattacker17's birthday. As it seemed people on the server at the time may have forgotten, krabbipatti314 gave a reminder in the in-game chat. fastattacker17 was happy this was done and celebrated his birthday with a double party at Birthday Island with Corncavz the following day, marking his increased presence on the stress test server. fastattacker17 and krabbipatti314 also decided it was time to begin a town along the river.
The first blocks were placed along the curve of the river. fastattacker17 felt guilty about this considering it was in a floodplain. Numerous incidents happened in floodplains relating to rivers overflowing such as Hurricane Hazel terrorizing Canada in 1954, but he then ignored these concerns acknowledging the town was being built in Minecraft.
The Start of Town and Official Wiki Page
On 15 December 2020, the unnamed proposed town was to be named. Factoring the town's proposal to be based on cookies and its location at the bottom of gravel hills, several names were considered by fastattacker17 such as Cooksport and Cooksdale Hill. The name Graveldale Valley was considered, but while writing the wiki page, fastattacker17 began writing about Goose's passing. After discussing Goose's passing with krabbipatti314, the town was renamed to Goosedale Valley in honour of Goose. Following the creation of the wiki page, on 16 December 2020 the town has welcomed a new resident, Corncavz.
Development Boom
Only three days later, on 19 December 2020, fastattacker17 invited some players from the New Earth build server to help develop the town. As the town became a popular topic in the in-game chat on both the build server and the stress test server, the population of the town nearly tripled with 5 new players intending to settle; the total amount was brought up to 8.
Work began that afternoon to structure the town. Personman6000 created The Mines to help players gather resources, and djhatt0204 created a vertical minecart system there connecting the lower level with the surface hills. Rahtheos and Lynski7 focused more on the entrance area, overhauling the placement of chests. Corncavz, fastattacker17, and djhatt0204 worked on creating a trail network to connect Goosedale Valley with Corncavz's treehouse and the outskirts of Wholesomeville. Ravenpuffe and AbruptFern began developing on the gravel hills: Ravenpuffe built a mountain base and AbruptFern worked on WBC Studio Goosendale on top of the gravel hills. Ratheos' also discovered the town was located directly above a spider spawner and abandoned mineshaft and fastattacker17 discovered a cave artifact nearby, further expanding opportunities for development with the town. With the players' contribution, the amount of players who helped build the town that day is actually 10.

The Mines and Drawbridge
Construction on the town sped up with Personman6000's creation of The Mines on 19 December 2020. It is the original location for the new players to collect resources, and is accessible by a draw bridge over the river. It also serves as an accessible throughway between downtown and the heights.

Goosendale Region Trail Network
During the development boom, a trail network south of the urban Goosedale Valley districts was established in the surrounding region - primarily in the jungle - to help connect the town with nearby points of interest. It currently connects Downtown Goosedale Valley with Corncavz's treehouse and the far outskirts of Wholesomeville.
Music Builds
fastattacker17 has many note block builds in New Earth on the build server. The town is also proposed to have note block music. The first note blocks were placed at the border of downtown and the trail network being fastattacker17's 3 note jingle.
