Xethyr, or just Xeth, was the host of iterations 34 and 38. He is widely regarded as a good host, known for putting together competent, technically-impressive, and well-remembered servers. He has nonetheless received some criticism for his admin record, such as for cases of rule enforcement. He is also known for developing the Nodes plugin, which was originally used for doneions' i32.


Origins

Xeth played with [s4s] on 4craft v11 2018. He first joined /int/craft i28 from an ad on 4craft. He played with the British empire on that server, building a large factory building in St. John's and setting up their chest room.

i29

Xeth again played with the British group on i29 in the town of London, England. He made a SCAMP1) outside Constantinople during a memeraid because Fili forgot to disable lava. This resulted in the Ottoman leader TheFartingGamer ragequitting the server.

i30

Xeth played in Zagreb, Croatia on i30. He designed the central building of Zagreb, based on the irl Croatian parliament building.

i31

Xeth played for the last time as a full member of the British group on i31 in Cairo, Egypt. He built the main spawn building as a giant pyramid, and rebuilt it with engines after it spontaneously launched into space.2) He was doomered-out by the Egyptian defeat in the Six-Hour War.

After the end of i31, Xeth led the development of the Nodes plugin, contributing greatly to the i32 server development overall. After launch, he was occupied with debugging Nodes, and played during war for various countries like Netherlands and Ireland.

i34

See also: World War 1#Development

After the end of Onionscraft, Xeth began development of a new server on his own terms, beginning in September 2020. The new server was to have a 1900s-WW1 theme. For this project, he updated Nodes to 1.16 and made a new ports plugin and a very impressive vehicle plugin, featuring trains and flying biplanes. He also made a website for /int/craft, intcraft.gay, for server announcements. The server was a huge success, becoming one of the most popular of all time. In-game, he fought for Kalmar, France, and Britain in various battles. As a result, he was accused of admin bias.

i37

Xeth gave Onions access to an updated build of Nodes for the Ukrainecraft server.

i38

Two years after WW1, Xeth returned to make the sequel, World War 2. Development was even lengthier than the first server; he worked on it on-and-off for a year or more prior to launch. Xeth still overworked himself to finish the vehicles even after the server had launched. The iteration once again broke records, and though it probably was not as epic as WW1, it was still a good serb. It was actually so good it got banned by Mojang.3)

Beyond /int/craft

Xeth claims to be retired from Minecraft as it is a “ded game”. He currently works on modding the game Vintage Story.4) Xeth is an advocate for trans rights.
