MCCSim1

Since the server was brand new, Souls knew that there would be no possible way to get 40 people for the first simulation. As such, he set a requirement for 20 people and otherwise it would be cancelled. This mark was surpassed, meeting the requirement on August 14th, 2020, and getting 28 total, which was enough for 7 teams. The next day, Souls scheduled the “official” date and time of the first MCCSim: Tuesday, August 18th, 2020 at 10:30 AM GMT. The time was later changed to 1:30 PM GMT after the teams were announced.

Events of MCCSim1
Something odd straight off the bat was decision dome powerups. Before the first voting phase, 2 teams were given power ups, which usually doesn’t happen until Round 2. The first vote was very close, with 5 votes on Survival Games and 4 votes on both TGTTOS and Rocket Spleef. Survival Games was chosen, with Yellow immediately taking the lead.

Individually, Darker took 1st place in Survival Games, something that he would eventually be known for. Two of Yellow, MR_Underscore and SirGlowman would get into the top 3. Radstuner and mockingbread would round out the top 5.

If you know anything about MCC, you would know that these Survival Games scores look a bit weird. This is because Souls didn’t really follow the actual MCC scoring system when calculating the first two sims. This also caused inconsistencies with the individual scores and as such only the team scores are listed on the Season 1 spreadsheet.

In game 2, the vote was originally tied with 5 on TGTTOS and 5 on Skyblockle, but Darker threw a mega chicken onto Rocket Spleef, which had a sticky and 3 other chickens, making it take the lead and get picked as the 2nd game. This time the leaderboard did a complete 180, with Aqua winning the game. Reecen26 ended up winning this game, although the individual scores seem to be multiplied for whatever reason.

We also finally get a peek at the overall top 10 individual after this game, which seems to also be inconsistent with the top 5s.

After game 2 it wasn’t very eventful. In game 3 (Skyblockle) Yellow absolutely dominated with 3 players in the top 5. Cumulative individuals stayed close to the same. In the top 4 the only thing that happened was mockingbread and MR_Underscore switching. Radstuner shot up to 5th off of his skyblockle performance and Migz dropped out of the top 10. In game 4, parkour warrior was selected, and Lime won. Hudson, Marko, Darker, and Souls finished the course. After game 4, mocking and underscore switched again, and Marko shot all the way up to 6th. Nothing else changed except for a few people dropping out of the top 10. After this game, the cumulative team scores were released, with yellow leading.

Game 5 was HITW, and the 3rd place Green Guardians won this game, with impressive performances from B15cuit and ryandu. In the individual rankings, Darker rose to 2nd, above mockingbread, and JBoss rose to 9th for an impressive HITW performance of his own. Game 6 was Sands of Time where Red won by having “amazing chem” (YELLOW, GREEN, AND CYAN LITERALLY HAD MORE WHAT A MOMENT). Obviously, chem player QueenSnitch took 1st on that game because I guess it wasn’t point split at the time. As for the top 10, let’s just say it’s wack. After being in 2nd Darker just noped out of the top 10 for some reason, even though the previous game he had enough points to still be in 6th, meaning somehow Darker got NEGATIVE POINTS. MR_Underscore and SirGlowman then occupied the top 2, with rad also rising to 3rd. QueenSnitch rose to 5th individual and Ryandu got himself 10th after getting 4th in SOT. These were the team scores after Game 6. After this, Souls postponed games 7 and 8 until the next day at 12:00 pm GMT.

The next day, Battle Box was picked as the 7th game, with Aqua taking the win 6-0. Cyan was also said to have gotten a 5-1 but it’s unclear what the results were for the other 5 teams. There were a lot of shifts in the top 10. Mockingbread rose to 2nd, dropping Glow down to 3rd. Rad also somehow got negative points in bbox as well, putting him out of the top 10. MR_Underscore also broke the 5k point barrier YEP. Darker rose back to 7th after his absolutely horrid SOT performance, Hudson moved to 4th, and Migz and TechVader rose into 9th and 10th respectively. Build Mart was voted as the last game, with red taking the win in the final game and setting the stage for a Yellow vs Aqua dodgebolt. BUT, Souls accidentally started a decision dome for a Game 9 not realizing 8 games had already been completed. After someone realized, Souls decided to go along with it anyway, and Ace Race would be the decider. Darker’s literally impossible performance caused him to skyrocket from 4th to 1st individual, with a score of 6305 points. MR_Underscore and SirGlowman also broke 6000, sitting in 2nd and 3rd. Here was the full top 10.

This single event changed the course of history, with Darker getting 1st individual (which may or may not have happened a couple more times) and setting up a Yellow vs Cyan dodgebolt. In round 1, IBuild nearly 1v3d yellow before JBoss ended their choke. In round 2, Darker got a quick kill on medskills but died early, leaving IBuild to get 3 additional kills to win the round. At the start of round 3, IBuild and JBoss immediately trade kills, and then kills from Glowman and Darker kept it even. Both of them then missed their next shots. Darker hit his next one on medskills though, and then glizzy gets a hit on glowman, giving cyan the advantage. In round 4, Glowman and JBoss got 2 quick kills onto Zuode and glizzy. IBuild gets 2 kills in a row onto JBoss and Underscore to keep it even. However, Glowman hit both of his next shots, killing Darker and IBuild to send it to round 5. Darker starts the round by killing med and Glow kills IBuild. Glizzy gets a double kill against JBoss and Underscore, though, leaving Glowman to 1v3. SirGlowman hits his next 2 shots, killing glizzy and darker and leaving it at a 1v1 situation. Zuode then chokes, missing both arrows, which allows Glowman to capitalize and win the first MCCSim for yellow.
