-**Phamtomguy** (styled as **phamtomguy**, and frequently misspelled as **phantomguy**) is a player and former nation leader who notably reigned as King of Spain during [[i32]]. His tenure as King was controversial, following a pre-server feud with [[Uma_Delicia|Portugal]]. Initially regarded as a community pariah and lolcow, Phamtomguy's reputation improved following a "redemption arc" in iteration 34 in which his group assisted the anti-German/Norse coalition during the server's first war day.

 ===== Early Life =====
-Phamtomguy first discovered /int/craft in the summer of 2018, during which he briefly played iteration 26 (commonly known as "epicfailcraft") before losing interest in the community for several years after said iteration's premature collapse. He would again be invited to /int/craft by well-known player [[TheSpookyBone]]((https://i.imgur.com/m8CgswI.png)) in early 2020, in the midst of iteration 31 ("Middle East"), but would not begin to play seriously until May of that year with the launch of iteration 32 ("1700 craft)".

 ===== Iteration history =====
+==== i26 ====
+Phamtomguy joined the Swedish faction in iteration 26, playing only for a few hours before deeming the server uninteresting and ceasing activity for several years.
+==== i31 ====
+Phamtomguy played for Egypt, but was hindered by his then low-quality PC and Windows Vista operating system, which ran Minecraft at 5 FPS. He was not a nation leader and achieved little of note.

 Phamtomguy claimed Spain during this iteration. During his tenure, Phamtomguy oversaw a plan to annex the entire Iberian peninsula under an Iberian Union. A meme coalition formed between Spain and Morocco to help defeat the Portuguese nation under [[Uma_Delicia]]. During pre-server diplomacy, attempts to negotiate a possible peace fell flat and only assured total Portuguese war.
-Phamtomguy's diplomacy took a major blow after leaked discord screenshots seemed to indicate that Phamtom planned on backstabbing allies after the planned annexation of Portugal. This was partially false. Further contextual information would be purposefully obfuscated by Portugal for propaganda purposes: in actuality, Phamtom only briefly considered attacking Morocco during the first few days of the server *before* deciding to form an alliance with them, and ultimately antagonize Portugal. Nonetheless, these leaks caused not only confusion among the Spanish but triggered anger from even the largest of nations who perceived this as a severe case of warmongering.

Additionally, Phamtomguy was widely memed after it was discovered that he had a reddit account linked to his Discord bio, resulting in his branding as "Redditguy" for the remainder of the server and a constant barrage of reddit icon reacts whenever he posted in the main server.
 In an attempt to save face, Phamtom would appoint his friend and co-commander Gambino to the position of King for a time in-game, while remaining as de facto leader in all but name.

 Humiliated after the events of iteration 32, Phamtomguy sought revenge against the more established metagroups of the server in the next iteration, a melee resurgence centered around the "Bronze Age Collapse" era. Through a mutual acquaintance , user IronBot, a soldier of Spain during i32, PhamtomGuy made contact with players Jrrarrow and Gavingoodman, future leaders of what would later become the "child soldiers"/PvP kid metagroup -- users who would go on to establish the South African nation of iteration 38.
-Phantomguy served as a general for Troy, and served both defense during the Seige of Troy and offense in the Battle of Tyre. Both operations ended in total Trojan victory. Leveraging the inexperienced players lack of knowledge of the server and community, PhamtomGuy asserted himself into a position of power within the nascent metagroup, successfully convincing Jrarrow to attack several metagroups who he viewed as antagonizing him during i32 -- inadvertently drawing the ire of virtually the entire server through persistent memeraids.

 Forging an alliance with player roguelich (formerly coolghoul), Phantomguy would utilize the metagroup's larger numbers & superior experience in the melee meta to decisively defeat the nations of Babylon and Tyre, securing one of his only victories during the course of his /int/craft career.

+Phamtomguy did not play i35 due to being between computers at the time, avoiding the mass IP leak and subsequent scandals which plagued the iteration. He did, however, briefly participate in the server discord, and was present in several voice calls during the trolling of Chris druo, the underage owner of "EarthCraft".
