Recent History[edit | edit source]
The London Wall
In August of 2021, a plan was made in an attempt to improve the safety of those visiting the City of London and, under the London Defense Project, the idea of a wall surrounding the city to prevent unwanted trespassers and raiders from entering was established.
Unlike a previous failed attempt to protect the city via the construction of a wall, led by a player named IcyWizard1, this wall was designed and constructed by one player - RatRaceRobot.
Testing the design to ensure there was no unwelcomed method of entry was paramount. Hence several weeks of testing and preparation was key to ensure no grappling hooks could be used and that the only possibly method of entry could be through the use of a limited supply of levitation potions available on the server. With all preparations made, the construction of the wall took in total 6 days.
