Gamer Lake is the self proclaimed "Poggiest and Gamer-est" town located around a lake in a Birch Forest. It was founded by the user Friedtoast77 on February 14th of 2021, and had a few members join soon after.
History
Before the Founding
On the day the 1.16 server first opened, Gamer Lake's founder, Friedtoast77 and two of his friends, Woulou and PaperMarioGaming, had already decided they wanted to form a settlement/town of their own. They had been brainstorming ideas for what to make and names for their settlement but never came up with anything that stuck. The next day Fried stumbled upon a lake in a birch forest with a landmass floating above it. He decided this is where they would build their town, and named it "Gamer Lake" based off a gag the trio had where they added "Pog" or "Gamer" to the beginning of almost anything.
The Early Growth of Gamer Lake
Soon after the founding of Gamer Lake, PaperMarioGaming would move to the location. Another User by the name of DrthVrdrMarenghi would soon join and build a lot of the paths, bridges, and buildings in Gamer Lake. These buildings included things like the villager breeder, the fishing docks, the courthouse, and the current version of the floating island.
Becoming a Town
On March 3rd, Woulou logged back on for the first time since the server started. A few days earlier, Drth had left Gamer Lake to live in Hermit's Quarry. So Woulou picked up where Drth had left off, Finishing the path around the lake, adding better lighting around it, constructing the Pogway, and making an info board at the entrance portal. After 2 new members joined, Gamer Lake was finally qualified to become a town.
Rules of Gamer Lake
- No eating Cooked Mutton
- Respect your fellow Gamers and their builds
- Please check in with the Mayor before joining (either in game or on Discord), otherwise there is no requirements to join.
- Do not cut down the Birch Forest without replanting if you're visiting to get a lot of Birch wood
Build Code
It is only asked that you put effort into making you builds look somewhat nice (Don't make a Box house). It is also required you ask the Mayor about any large projects you wanna build for the town before starting it. (small things like a small private farm or a Storage shed are fine without permission, but things like, a large farm or a tower of some kind are examples of big projects)
Notable Builds in Gamer Lake
Public Fishing Docks
Obviously a lake has a place you can fish at. The building the docks are on has several chests for organizing fishing loot, Roof access to fish from higher up, a bed to stop Phantoms, and a lava pit for throwing away unwanted junk.
