The decision was made - not by me, actually unilaterally by the server owner - that the world of the Bare Roots server, a YouTuber-only Minecraft server of which I am a member, will be reset. This means that the current world, along with all progress in it, will be blown away and replaced with a brand new map from a different random seed. This is after just six months of content production on the current map.
I can't say I'm happy about the reset, but I'm not angry or sad. I've been away (actually I vanished completely from our group) from the server for the past two months, and I welcome the chance to get back in sync with everyone as we start building our world anew. The server owner said that this reset is also an attempt to jump-start activity in the server - I'm not the only one who's been away. Of course, map resets are not a sustainable or particularly effective means of infusing the server with activity, historically speaking, but hey, it's a try.
Attempts will be made to bring in some new characters. Three have left and one is considering; I suppose we're all busy with real life. I've heard that there will be some "gimmicks" - gameplay modifications - in the new world, but no specifics are out yet.
I recorded my final episode on this map today, just the nineteenth in the series. Hopefully, next season will last longer and I'll be able to produce more interesting content.
