Minecraft Servers[]
Evolution SMP[]
Oct 1, 2017 — Dec 23, 2018
This SMP was focused on the idea of living on a survival server that would start in older versions of Minecraft and steadily change/evolve into newer versions over time.
Legacy SMP[]
Mar 13, 2020 — Jun 2, 2020
He made himself an enormous dirt cube to live in, and spent most of his time roleplaying and pranking the other SMP members.
Life Series[]
| 3rd Life (Season 1) |               |
|---|---|
| Last Life (Season 2) |    |
| Double Life (Season 3) | |
| Limited Life (Season 4) | |
| Secret Life (Season 5) |  |
Third Life[]
Apr 20, 2021 — Jun 1, 2021
The Third Life SMP was a Hardcore SMP created by Grian. Each player would receive three lives upon joining with their final "red" life making them hostile towards other players. The server had a small world border to keep players close to each other. He was the first one to be eliminated in this season.
Last Life[]
Sep 21, 2021 — Nov 2, 2021
Its second season, called Last Life, was a very similar premise but instead of only having 3 lives, each player had a random amount of lives (between 2 - 6) assigned and could trade lives with other players. He was the first one to be eliminated in this season as well.
Double Life[]
Jun 17, 2022 — July 15, 2022
Its third season, called Double Life, was a similar premise to the first season, however each player would share a health bar with another player (called their "soulmate"). Solidarity's soulmate was Tango Tek.
X Life SMP[]
|  |  | | |  |  |  | |  |
 |  |  |  |  | |  |  |
May 23, 2020 — Feb 26, 2021
X Life is a modified SMP — created by Dangthatsalongname — where players start with one heart and the objective of the server is to survive with 10 lives. Losing a life adds one more heart to a player's health, and a player is eliminated from the server if they lose all of their remaining lives.
Empires SMP[]
Season 1
| |||||||||||||
Season 2
|
S,eason 1: June 12, 2021 — January 29, 2022
The Empires SMP is a modified Minecraft server, where the objective is for players to establish their own empires to trade goods and resources with other empires, as well as wage wars. He founded "The Cod Empire" in the swamp biome which traded mostly slime.
Season 2: June 25, 2022 — May 13th, 2023
Season 2 is very similar to the original season, but with new Empires and set in version 1.19. This time, Jimmy founded a Wild West-themed empire called "Tumble Town" in the Mesa. He played a sheriff that protects the server and his empire. Unfortunately, he is constantly made fun of by the other emperors for being similar to Woody from Toy Story.
In Season 2, there was a crossover with Hermitcraft and Empires through a rift that was in both of the servers.
Afterlife SMP[]
| | | | | | |  | | |
| | | | |
Mar 4, 2022 — June 14, 2022
The Afterlife SMP is a modified server that is a sequel to the X Life SMP, and still maintains the Hardcore aspect of each member only having 10 lives. However, in this SMP there are additional modifications including the Origins mod, which gives each player an "origin" (generally based on a Minecraft mob) that includes special abilities and either positive, neutral, or negative traits. For each of the player's 10 lives they will obtain a new random Origin, and have the option to re-roll 3 times total over the course of the server.

MC Championship[]
MC Championship is a Minecraft Tournament for YouTubers and streamers run by the Noxcrew, in which 10 teams of four compete in a series of 8 minigames decided by the participants. A point multiplier makes each game worth more as each round passes, incentivizing teams to vote for games they might be bad at early on in the event. In the end, the two teams with the most points face off in a round of ‘Dodgebolt’ to decide the winner of the tournament. This makes it possible for a team to win despite potentially having fewer points than the runner-up.
Jimmy debuted in MCC 1.
