Flo

Flo first joined Gangcraft on October 27th, 2022, and played on the account polarparadise. For the most part he was a casual player, but did take part in a few notable events such as the Stereo Temple Incident and surviving the World Height MLG Massacre. Flo has various builds both above and below ground in the over world and underworld, with the most impressive of the bunch being the Dark Tower. Flo was an active player until August 23rd, 2023, when he stopped playing after switching to Linux and the Microsoft barrier of entry became too high.

Etymology

Despite the name "Flo" being more commonly used to name females, Flo is a male. FishHooks, who was a friend of Flo, came up with the name "Florida Fung" on December 19th, 2019. He combined the Florida Man meme and the fact Flo was known for playing a mushroom race in the game Rogue Lineage where he did many risky stunts. The nickname "Flo" came as a shorthand from the first three letters of the full name.

Status

Due to his political views within the server of gangcraft, Flo is regarded as a Hostile individual/nation. This is where his nickname, The Dark Lord originates from. His infamous legacy and stories still get told around the server.

Builds

Dark Tower

While wandering around, Flo came across a flat section of mushroom biome and decided it would be a good location to build his home base. Rather than spending a long time gathering a bunch of materials and placing them, he decided it would be more efficient to create a giant lava cast and carve a base out of the path it took. The result was a sky high tower that had a spiraling staircase that curved around the tower and led directly to the top. At the top was Flo's Lair which touched the sky and was where he stored all his belongings.

Watery Grave

After the many deaths from the Stereo Temple Incident, Flo felt that the rewards of sponges and gold were not enough for their efforts. So as a tribute to Stereo for losing all his items and as a personal triumph, he decided to drain all the water out of the sea temple and make it into a new base. It looks like an ordinary temple from the outside, but on the inside the interior structures are hollowed out and the rooms have simple workbenches and chests.

Gold Farm (unfinished)

The original plan for this build was from the video 1.18 Gold Farm by DashPum4. The creator of this design claims the farm yielded over 1,000 gold blocks per hour which would have made it the most productive farm on the server. Unfortunately it was also very ambitious, the project required a massive amount of resources and construction time. The scaffolding for the platforms that spawned the Zombie Pigman were all built, but after that it was not finished.
