-Randem as a group was formed long before their first appearance on /int/craft. It’s a friend group formed around 2017 who occasionally played Minecraft together. In contrast to /int/craft’s mostly amerimutts demographic Randem is an overwhelmingly [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rDEq_R1Rg_Y|medgod]] metagroup with its core members hailing from every corner of the Mediterranean Sea. In 2019, Octavius who was playing /int/ in 4craft found an invite to /int/craft and brought the rest of the friend group alongside him. Because they had played Sardinia in a previous minecraft server, Palasinge decided to continue the Mediterranean heritage/larp by picking Crete in i30. This is why the randemists were at the time called “the cretins”.

-In Europa 1700, Andi and Lama (Robert Soylent) shilled Crimea as a potential faction and the rest of the group agreed as it was a defendable island in the corner of the map and thus seen as safe. Andi led the Randemists shortly but he was forced to resign because the faction had a terrible image for the following reasons : Crimea was insided by alts with reddit accounts in their discord bio and was also joined by genuine ukrainian redditors. Andi did terrible diplo and allied [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2djx83-4XNQ|Phamtomguy]] who was back then intboy’s public enemy #1.

 The Crimean fort (also known as [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YoeP9w5UIlg|Marine Ford]]) was basically an improvement on Crete’s already amazing defenses and was one of the iteration’s largest buildings. Crimea essentially served as Randem’s school for having factions function as efficiently as possible with very well planned building, logistics and resource gathering techniques. Because of [[onions|Deonion]]'s nodes system, a [[onions_era|“famine”]] was caused by the [[onions_era|inability of growing food]]. The answer to that was that the randemists developed the “[[onions_era|holodomor]] machine”, a water fountain to kill yourself and not waste (the non existing) food. It was also during i32 that the Randemists set up the “mineslave” system which basically consisted of recruiting newfags and forcing them to mine all day. In epochcraft 2, the mineslave economy would lead a turkish mineslave to fail all of his university entrance exams and find himself with no future, all because of the blockgame.
-The ukrainian mineslaves then settled the city of Dnipro and revolted against the Khan in Bakhchysarai. Crimea’s main threat was the Ottomans who memeraided the peninsula extensively at first, however the group behind the Ottomans quit the iteration very early on and Crimea proceeded to sack and rape the abandoned city of Istanbul. Left with no enemies to fight, Crimea became a vassal of Russia alongside Estonia and fought in Poland during war day. On the second day of war the Randemists joined the fight against Pope Deonions. It was an utter failure so Andi and Gopnik left to fight in Torino while Octavius and Lama backclaimed Naples, Sicily and Sardinia.

 Phamtom led Troy and was, again, the target of most of the server. To make the Iliad a reality the ships of Ithaca sailed towards Troy, eventually managing to drill its walls and set it on fire just like in the ancient epic by Christophoros Nolanos.
-Because of the terrible randemist mineslave economy, Andi got into an argument with Gopnik because he was tired of mining stone blocks. The conjuncture of that argument with Phamtom being at the time a huge meme led Andi to create the religion of phamtomism which would be the first step of Phamtom’s redemption arc. Andi left Ithaca, hid in a cave in western Iran, starved, prayed to Phamtom in the chat and was blessed with fish spawned by Helias. Andi then went to Jerusalem to write more paragraphs of the Bible, was captured and enslaved in the mines again. Randemists like Palasinge and Lama progressively sided with Andi, giving him resources and food which angered Gopnik and caused the Ithacan civil war which resulted in reconciliation.

 Ithaca was part of the Tyre League and was one of the only allies of Phoenicia to actually help them during war day. But the Ithacan army was only made up of Octavius and Lama which was far from being enough to help the Phoenicians. In the end only Lama was left online and he spent the end of war helping Babylon and grieging the Nabateans.

-i44 was plagued with awful discord PVP and massive cancerous TOSSING (reporting people to discord jannies) which even harmed Randem (Lama and Kafka) despite their little involvement in the discord activities. Before the TOS war, people revolted about Ghoul being a janitor behind his alt named SarasT_T (with a Shinobu pfp). Ghoul was thus demoted and Sarastiti left the server. People (and most of Randem) then shitposted about unchaining Saras and restoring his janitorial rights, which eventually happened. The Randemists called Saras SarasToT (ToT belly and chest) and Palasinge made it his nickname on the intman lounge. Following the DRANG to HONOR i30, Randem brought back the Kara Boga server. The idea to bring the joke back was shilled by Octavius, Lama, Tommy and Babyracer. It originally was a prank server made around the times of 4craft and on which people would be baited into bibisi jumpscare. Randem disguised it as Kosovo, the server of a mysterious new memegroup hailing from the 4cuck thread and led by Babyracer and Tommy. Because Ireland's spam was annoying, it was then disguised as Ireland. It worked as intended, some people found it funny and other people seethed. As Randem hoped, Razz became an occasional poster on the server. Because of the TOS wave and because most of /int/ users got pranked, the joke was pulled out after a few days and flatmelons was banned from the server just in case.

-This iteration mainly focused on buildfagging and roleplaying. Palasinge's cunning diplo despite doubts from many Randemists cemented the ability of the Kabbal to lead the metagroup. The Cretin roleplay was a tribute to i30 flavoured with US Navy larp due to Palasinge's country in Randem's Victoria 2 mod being the US navy stationned the Mediterranean sea. The nation was named the US Navy and the town was Bidenople but it was renamed several times. Several members wanted to rename the nation to Byzantium in order to larp alongside Wojjers' roman larp in Italy but Palasinge and Lama strongly opposed it.After the first day of war, Palasinge renamed the US Navy to the Afro-Byzantine Empire and the town to Negroponce (Negroponte). When Lama became leader in the middle of week 2, he renamed the faction several times. It shortly was the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q59VD-kgcZ8 | British Occupation]] government and Bidenople to Gorgopotamos (famous Greek civil war battle). It then became Atromikos FC and Peristeri. During war day, Octavius renamed it back to US Navy/Bidenople but it became SarasToTia/GhoulWonBTW during war and US Navy/Bidenopolis afterwards. At the end of the iteration, it was US Navy/Bidenople.

-Despite initially being Crete, the Randemists moved their capital to Larissa and focused on building Athens. This was done because Crete was way too tiny to buildfag anything. Fedward added a special node on the north ofCrete for Randem to build a carrier but the node ended up being too small and the carrier ended up looking rather small. Meo (Palasinge), was the town leader but the leadership was handled to Lama and then Octavius due to vacations. A lot of randemists played and Athens is one of the nicest if not the nicest town in Randem's /int/ history.
+Despite the first headquarters of the Judeonaval administration being located in Crete, the Randemists moved their capital to Larissa and focused on building Athens. This was done because Crete was way too tiny to buildfag anything on and the area was completely indefensible. Fedward added a special node on the north of Crete for Randem to build a carrier but the node ended up being too small and the carrier ended up looking rather small. Palasinge, was the town leader for most of the server's duration but the leadership was eventually handed to Lama and then Octavius when irl stuff kept him busy. A lot of Randemists would eventually play despite being busy for most of the iteration due to summer vacations and Athens ended up becoming one of the nicest if not the nicest town in Randem's /int/ history.
-Because Fedward was very pro-Randem and that both Gato and Kafka were jannies, the randemists called this iteration "randemcraft". Furthermore, they largely used creative to buildfag which allowed Athens to be built way faster than initially expected. Because Lama and Palasinge find ancient greek larp redundant (and also because Palasinge is <del>athenian</del> Piraeote), Athens was built according to its modern day layout. The city center was Syntagma Square, which was adorned with PASOK propaganda and a pixelart of Papadopoulos. The boroughs of Athens were built around Syntagma with Kypseli, Peristeri and Exarchia located to the north, Menidi to the east and Piraeus to the south. The Hotel Grande Bretagne was Kypseli's, while Peristeri was home to the Palasinge house, the Papandreou Stadium (of Atromikos FC), and the Siemens VAI steelworks. Exarchia had ESMT, Athens' contemporary art museum aka Andi's goon mapart cave. Menidi was basically a shopping district with surburban shithole bungalows just like irl. Piraeus was home to Olympiacos FC's football stadium, a beach, a crêpe foodtruck and the Chinese-owned port of Piraeus. The main landmarks of Athens were Trump's ballroom in the Peloponnese, the National Gallery of Athens (replacing the Greek Parliament) on the western end of Syntagma, The Parthenon (Phamtomist temple & brewery) on the westernmost limit of the city and Gato's brony museum on the extreme north of Athens. The National Gallery hosted approximatively 300 maparts and lagged Athens so much it closed its doors to the public, only reopening during the last week of the iteration. Kafka also built a synagogue in the northern area. Crete was basically a terraformed with Souda port, warships, and a cretin pixelart. Pixelarts of Lain and Yoshika Miyako were also built above Thessaly. Thessaloniki was surrounded by medieval-looking walls and housed small wooden shacks. Other buildings included : Kafka's beautiful Mutt version of Scylla as well as two lighthouses in the Agean, and the Trump Tower on Rhodes (Rhode Island), a greek civil war themed military base in Thessaly and a EAM partisan camp next to a cottage in Epirus. Funkygopnik also began working on a Kirov Zeppelin but because it was right over Athens, the Kirov was moved with worldedit over western Greece and half of the build was lost in the limbos. Because Randem shitposts a lot about Greece, many things in i44 Athens were nods to these inside jokes. Kypseli is an irrevelent part of Athens but it's a meme in Randem because various murders occur there. Same goes with PASOK, Papadopoulos, Papagos and the Ronald Scobie/UK occupation things. Randem just really likes to shitpost about contemporary greek history.

-The the original idea was to fight in the Mediterranean (either Egypt or Italy or Tunisia or whoever). But Palasinge disliked the russian memegroup so much he changed all of the diplo plans to direct the randemist war effort against them, his diplofagging was very effective and Randem defeated Russia and its polish ally alongside Gamergoy's Vkraine and Wojjers. The victory was largely due to Randem's intense training to ukrainian warfare in Arma reforger before the beginning of the iteration. The second week of war was a meme war between Italy and Tunisia. Randem helped Italy alongside Sweden but they failed to conquer the Tunisian homenode.
+The original diplo plan was to fight in the Mediterranean (either Egypt or Italy or Tunisia or whoever). Palasinge handled diplo and initially decided to follow along with Multiquake's plan to surprise attack Italy but his disdain for the russian memegroup (they were 15yo groypercriggerfags) was so big he changed all of the diplo plans to direct the Judeonaval war effort against them. His diplofagging was very effective, Multiquake's plan was tipped to the Wojjers and relations with them were restored while the US Navy defeated Russia and its polish ally alongside Gamergoy's Vkraine and Italy.
