mindcrackloveThis is mostly written from the viewpoint of a person looking back at the past.
A simple change.
Back in May 16th, 2013, Vechs announced, via Twitter, that he was joining Mindcrack. However, in our world, it wasn't until two and a half months later, on July 30th, that he finally stepped onto the surface of the Mindcrack Spawn Town, a world hugely changed, as it was already Season 4. So, what happens when Vechs decides to de-facto enter the Mindcrack Server earlier?
To be exact, shortly before June 1st, 2013.

Vechs's first video was not a tour video, as it was for plenty of people before him. The server was ending in one month, so it was decided that he will get a tour of the entire world when the time comes for the group tour. Nor was it a huge roleplay scenario, one that eventually crescendos into the final video that leads to the person's reveal, like it was for BTC, Sethbling, Coestar, and Aureylian. What was unique about Vechs's first video was that it was a prank video, where he joined Team Canada +1 -1, now Team Canada +2 -1, in finishing Guude's house as a fun-house at Spawn.
Of course, being the new person on the server, Vechs was placed in charge of placing all the pink and magenta wool blocks in the prank. While he placed down the blocks where Zisteau told him to, he also made himself an attic on top of the building using the two blocks he had at hand, a temporary shelter for which he could store his materials. At the very end of the prank video, after Etho, Vechs, VintageBeef, and Zisteau briefed on what they did and looked at the completed house from a distance, VintageBeef gave Vechs a plot at spawn, and gave him one month to come up with a building and finish it, just in time for the tour.
It was said that Vechs was extremely enthusiastic, to the point where he was producing videos at the rate from one per day for a week, a feat not achieved since Guude back in 2012. Within the first twelve days of him joining the server, he has already gotten a sheep farm started at his spawn plot, a pumpkin farm started, a chicken, cattle, and swine breeding station, a potato, wheat, carrot, sugarcane, and melon farm, all diamond armor and gear, a visit to the nether for quartz, a visit to the end for XP for enchantments, and a Howdy Neighbor prank on Paul Soares Jr, where he placed a small pumpkin on a fence post with levers on the sides of the pumpkin right in front of PSJ's base. After that, it was seven straight days of designing a diner, interrupted by a return prank from Paul Soares Jr on the fourth day.
The diner Vechs was building was a 16 to 1 ratio of the pumpkin man he placed in front of Paul Soares Jr's house, surrounded by a quartz patio with tables and chairs for potential people to eat at. When one enters the building itself, there is a minecart elevator all the way up to the top, where the actual restaurant is located, serving every known food in Minecraft, ranging from pork chops to pumpkin pie. It was organized like a buffet, a counter with chests on top of them, filled with food. The tables and chairs within the restaurant were the same as the ones down below on the patio, and there was also a second floor with more tables and chairs. To get down to ground level, Vechs placed two water source blocks at the bottom next to the minecart elevator, where one would jump down and exit out the back door.
Finally, in the last week before touring, he took off for Zisteau's Wasteland Village, doing a number of co-ops around that place with the builder. He also pulled a prank on Bdubs as well, building random numbers all over his base. His reasoning behind this was written on the prank signs: "I heard you like to do math problems. Unfortunately, I am not good at math myself, nor do I like it that much. So, the only thing I did was to throw random numbers around your base. If you want, you could add up the numbers for the problem. -Vechs" It just turns out that most of them are 3s, with only a smattering of the other nine numbers, and, being the person Bdubs is, he interpreted the numbers to all be E's. When Bdubs finally read the sign that said that Vechs did this prank, he became very confused, as the E-pranker has been here for longer than Vechs and he did not realize that those E's were actually 3's. Vechs also had a number of extra pumpkins around, so he built the Terra-Cotta Army next to PSJ's base underground. However, it wasn't discovered until the Group Server Tour itself, when, while taking a look at PSJ's builds on the server, Nebris broke the grass block beneath Etho and he went falling into the pit containing the prank. After the Group Spawn Tour, he played a game of King of the Ladder with Kurt and Zisteau and Baj, and then was present with Zisteau and Etho when they finally decide to destroy Zisteau's Wasteland Village.
Vechs created a total of 24 videos for Season 3. He will never create that many Mindcrack videos in that short of a time again.
