The Network

The Network Syndicate is a group that was assembled during Season 6.5 and stayed active until the end of Season 7. It is a small group in CrocMC's with 7 members and 2 members who were consistently active

Overview
The group was a Syndicate structure revolving around the main goal of causing havoc during Season 6.5. They were disbanded at the end of Season 7

Formation
During season 6 player ShadowCyborg19 did a deal with player EndAlpha3311, this would turn into a partnership with ShadowCyborg19 travelling 500 blocks in the nether from his base in a raid tower to EndAlpha’s Compound in a flower forest biome bordered by a badlands and desert biome. Due to technical difficulties the two players would never meet in game. ShadowCyborg19 would stay at the base for the remainder of Season 6 until it's unfortunate deletion. These would be the original 2 members.

During Season 6.5 The Network Syndicate was created with the goal of causing mayhem and destruction. Originally only ShadowCyborg19 was active due to technical difficulties with player EndAlpha3311. Player ZitiPastaGuy would help along the way and occasionally log on. The Network Syndicate was named to relate to its use of a network of  tunnels. On one of The Network Syndicates excursions to the base of Cobblestone Rest ShadowCyborg19 came across new players Sunnyd897 and Hp22ogamerHD863 in a dirt hut hiding from mobs. These two would be recruited though only Sunnyd897 would be active. The Network Syndicate’s base of operations was an underground bunker in a forest biome

Johnny
Johnny was the last member of a raiding party that had spawned near The Network's Season 6.5 bunker. When searched for he could never be found but he often came and was responsible for the deaths of players in the surrounding forest. He was known as Johnny, the Ghost in the woods.

End of Season 6.5
The Discord server for this group was made towards the end of the season. Some notable areas of the Season 6.5 bunker was a fortified obsidian purge bunker where ShadowCyborg19 resided in for the last 4 days of Season 6.5 listening to mellohi on a jukebox.

Season 7
The day before the official drop of CrocMC season 7 during the time when the server was on but all players were trapped in a 1.17 hut. Players ShadowCyborg19 and Lyolol3824 both logged on to be greeted by the 1.17 spawn hut. They exchanged Discords and Lyolol3824 joined The Network Syndicate.

Using Chunkbase ShadowCyborg19 found a stronghold outside of the old 3000x3000 reimbursement radius. On the day that CrocMC season 7 officially dropped both players logged on during the starting rush. Lyolol3824 was the first to land at the stronghold which would become the main base. On day 3 of CrocMC season 7 ShadowCyborg19 joined Lyolol3824 at the stronghold. The day ShadowCyborg19 landed at the stronghold he began to strip it for resources. Over the next few days the actual base would take shape. Shadow would dig out space and Lyolol would build. There was an incident were some 50 silverfish breaking out and attacking this left base with many missing blocks that can still be seen today. Due to the aid of Slinx the end portal was lit.

Altercations
There were several incidents of trespasser the most important being, Zfuzzyreaper coming to the base with no armor and attempting to steal. He was accordingly dealt with by being killed. Due to this a secret bunker somewhere in the mines was created to better protect the resources collected. Due to the rise in hostile player activity and robbery in the area The Network Syndicate has begun construction on a mega castle on top of a mountain built out of obsidian and other hard to break materials. This project will take time and currently only the mountain on which the castle will reside is being worked on. During another altercation it came to light that player Zfuzzyreaper  had in fact not been stealing but giving items and taking from our chests. This mistake was rectified and Zfuzzyreaper and ShadowCyborg19 embarked on a long nether voyage to Zfuzzyreapers home of origin to do a deal. Much later there would be another major altercation between player ShadowCyborg19 and Diogo1906. Due to misinformation ShadowCyborg19 was not informed of Diogo1906’s inclusion to the base because of these. ShadowCyborg19 removed Diogos1906s two dogs and the glass he had added to save people from a lava trap we had set to kill trespassers. In return to this Diogo1906 stole an entire enchant table a pink axolotl named Zuko and removed all the lava in the moat.

End of season 7 and disbanding of The Network Syndicate
Two days before the vote to end CrocMC Season 7 ShadowCyborg19 disbanded the Network Syndicate in favor of becoming a full fledged citizen of the United Croc Republic. ShadowCyborg19 would abandon the network syndicates bunker and travel the United Croc Republic capital city where he would began work on a hobbit hole however this was abandoned and ShadowCyborg19 only logged on once more during Gamemode Creative.
