The SCP:SL Saga is the saga taking place between February of 2018 and March of 2020. This period marks Unigamia's largest growth (going from ~100 members to 3000+ members) in the course of two years and marks the beginning of the Unigamia's New Guard.

Precursor

Age of Admins

The Age of Admins

The Age of Admins began with the start of the SCP:SL servers in February of 2018. The first admin, Jeannaute, had PatPeter host four servers.

  • Unigamia #1 [FF] (Friendly Fire)
  • Unigamia #2 [ERP] (Event Roleplay)
  • Unigamia #3 [RP] (Roleplay)
  • Unigamia #4 [MEMES] (Non-Serious Gameplay)

These four servers would lay the foundation and framework for the community and sovereignty to grow. It's unknown if it was PatPeter or Jeannaute who sent the request, but Unigamia was one of the first approved community servers on SCP:SL. During this time, several more admins would be added to the community such as BooBooBear, Arby, 11 Corgis on a Computer, Wilson, Benjamin, and Knitler. While these folks were the star of the show to common folk, there were several minor moderators who would become important as time went on.

When PatPeter decided to splinter the Admin's powers (on the account that the infant moderator team lacked a real command structure), several new moderator teams were formed. These original four teams were ran by admins (and in the case of Gamma, one of the moderators) under a new rank, Supermoderator. In July of 2018, this set of changes were enacted and several admins left like Arby or stepped away from SCP:SL like BooBooBear.

The first team, Jean's Team, would consist of Holyknight NCRHUNTER, Hi, My Name is Ana!, Hyper, and SkotKeller. This team would later be re-named to Alpha Team and Jean would resign as Supermoderator and Hi, My Name is Ana! was given control over the team as the first post-admin Supermoderator. The early Alpha Team's role was more in usage on ERP and MEMES.

The second team, Corgi's Team, consisted of The Cure, Sgt. Lee, and AWOOOOOO. This team would later be re-named to Beta Team. Corgi would remain mostly inactive while carefully guiding his supermoderators. In fact, Corgi would not step away until March of 2019 with LostInMyThoughts replacing him as the leader of Beta Team.

The third and final team, Budda Kream's team, would consist of Knitler, Wilson, and Benjamin. This team would later be re-named to Gamma Team. The original Gamma Team mission was to be a place of "retirement" for older moderators who didn't wish to leave the team, but would not be readily available as the new moderators. Because of this, Gamma's times would be dramatically lower than the other teams, but receive special exceptions until July of 2019 when Budda Kream resigned and was replaced by Sexually Aggressive Starfish.

You would also see the rise of several waves of trials, with the first known wave consisting of Budorj, LostInMyThoughts, Blameproject, Pothead and Kevin. Interestingly, two moderators, Craz and The Cure, never received a trial announcement but became trials during this time.

In addition, two major server changes would happen.

  • Unigamia #1 [FF] became Unigamia #1 [BREACH]
  • Unigamia #5 [WAR] and Unigamia #6 [NOFF] were added.

This is the ending point of the Age of Admins, while the Admin system was effective, there wasn't a clear hierarchy and the fact a trial could learn two different things from two different Admins could lead to potential problems in the future. As such, the Team system was put in place and the first teams were truly born.

The Golden Age of Secret Labs

Servers

As stated in the Age of Admins, the servers had increased to six full sized servers. Despite having six servers, 5+6 would fall underneath a constant cycle of re-naming, rule changing and different types of servers. The single largest issues was that these servers were more seasonal and didn't have a particular interest group. Breach/FF were designed for people who wanted to play the game for the sake of gameplay, ERP was for moderators to host events, spicing up on gameplay with interesting concepts, game modes, and so on.

The issue of server 5/6 is that they never had a proper reason. The original 5/6 were named [WAR] and [NOFF]. War would spawn originally with 2 D-Class, 1 Scientist and the rest would be Chaos Insurgency or Nine Tailed Foxes. The rate of spawn was nearly a minute per wave, leading to constant warfare between the two forces. Meanwhile, NOFF was the first and only No Friendly Fire server. This would be extremely unpopular because the majority of players chose Unigamia because it had Friendly Fire Enabled. It was a matter of weeks before [NOFF] turned into a new server, [ESCAPE]. This new #6 [ESCAPE] would be similar to [WAR] where 10 D-Class, 5 Scientists, and 5 SCPs spawn at the start. There was not a respawn timer on this server, as the game was designed for quick, short rounds.

After these servers failed, two more servers would replaced them [BLITZ] and [DUBS]. [BLITZ] was a faster, more rushed version of War with a 30 second respawn timer and rounds lasting between 5-7 minutes. [DUBS]'s gimmick was that there could be two of any SCP on the server. [DUBS] had a player cap of 40, as opposed to the 20/25 other servers had, so you could have up to 8 SCPS. This server was popular, but had to be shutdown due to the fact that two SCP-079's would completely ruin the game.

Around that same time, server #7 and #8 appeared. #8 was often known as [EXP] as it was a server for Pat and the Moderators to test plugins, work on code, and for mod's to test their abilities. There was also a short-lived #7 known as [COMEDY] that ended after too many moderators ended up fighting each other and ruining Comedy night.

Teams

In the early days of Unigamia, Moderator Teams consisted of 2-4 people at a time. This meant that any massive wave would justify the existence of a new team, and as such, two new teams would be formed. Not in quick succession of each other, but Sigma Team (also known as Ligma Team, and later as Delta Team) would be formed under the leadership of SkotKeller. Additionally, during the month of November 2019, another team would be formed known as Epsilon Team underneath long-time moderator Craz.

At that same time, SkotKeller would be replaced by Roartex and be placed on the Minecraft sovereignty.

New Moderator Waves

After the formation of Sigma Team, new moderators would vote on new trials that had sponsors rather than PatPeter selecting them himself. In this time, the first and only mini-wave would occur with Sentinel Blue, Roartex, and SirBlookey // Dabble being unanimously chosen. These means of waves would be later noted to be highly ineffective as future, larger waves could not be easily voted upon.

This first mega-wave was a massive deal for the growing Moderator Team. It represented a challenge for the hierarchy to deal with, mainly that Trials had very few permissions and Moderators could access all permissions. This, in turn, resulted in a brand new moderator rank known as the Sub-Mod. This sub-mod rank would eventually be renamed to Junior Moderator. This first Mega-Wave would consist of TheBlade, Captain Autismo, GodEmperorCommunazi, Ducky, Janitor, Relapze, and Arithia. The most interesting note is that the performance of TheBlade and Captain Autismo was so goddamn spectacular that they were instantly promoted to Senior Moderator instead of Junior/Sub-Mod like the rest of their wave.

Team Wars

Second Age of Admins

Thunder Crisis

The Bounty

During July of 2019, the drama regarding Thunder_Pika had finally reached it's limit. Several moderators, many of them originating from Alpha Team, found themselves demanding the outright ban of Pika. This was a decision that the Supermods would not make until the Summer Minecraft launch where Pika was banned from the Unigamia server. However, many of the Unigamia server's players moved to Sentinel's recently launched Minecraft server (dropped on the same day as the Unigamia one) to avoid playing with Pika. Despite this, Pika found himself playing on the server after he was banned by the Unigamia Minecraft staff.

Sentinel's Chambers were often a neutral ground that all members of any faction were welcome, whether it was Unigamia hardcore loyalists or people who disdained Unigamia's practices, but Pika's appearance on the server broke both sides into a temporary alliance. Without hesitation, Pika was assaulted by the furries that he bullied on SCP:SL and was onset by every single motherfucking person that he ever slighted in one moment. This led to Pika being banned for the server for making the same statement that led him to a month long ban in the Unigamia main discord.

For Sentinel, he was looking for an excuse to get rid of him and chose to use this as a setting point to remove him. The next morning, Sentinel formed a faction consisting of every supermod at the time (Sentinel, Lost, Craz, and TheBlade) with the exception of Budda Kream, with the goal of removing Pika from the server. This was a popular move that earned each of the supermoderators love, but it would be a double edged blade. They introduced a bounty at the next moderator meeting for Pika.

Later that same day, Pika was perma-banned for the game, but instead of conceding his final defeat, he ran to the server and claimed an unjust ban despite a fair and completely justified ban in which he killed four people with an elevator grenade.

The Moderator Rebellion

Despite being banned in-game and never to play on an Unigamia server again, several moderators (led by Matt the Bathmat) who wanted to see him permanently gone from the discord. Matt had claimed that Pika was spreading porn to younger age children in game live. The reality of the situation is that Pika played porn moans of the Intercom and ear-raped the facility. Matt is technically right, but not enough to justify his desire to start a full-pledged rebellion. However, as climatic as this rebellion was, it fell rather anti-climatically... being torn apart from the inside due to Matt having an irrational episode that removed almost everyone from the group due to believing there was a mole for PatPeter in the group.

Matt's small rebellion ended after Sentinel Blue hosted the only known Speedy Inquiry in Unigamia's history, and with a deciding council of all supermoderators and PatPeter, Pika was convincted on breaking nine of Unigamia's articles in the 2019 version of the Constitution.

The Shattering of the SCP:SL Team

Matt's rebellion is a small footnote in the history of Unigamia, but one of the most devastating events in the mod team's history. In this time, every team but Beta Team had lost members and were redistributed into other groups. With Alpha Team being at the heart of the rebellion (Matt and several other conspirators being apart of it), they received the harshest punishment and had their team almost entirely split apart. In addition, despite overlapping the other teams by nearly 3000 minutes in time, they lost mod team of the month to Beta Team.

End of the Saga

The SCP:SL Saga was often considered one of the golden ages of Unigamia, with a massive influx of both new players, members, and permanent leaders in the community. In fact, many of the people who would be leaders in latter sagas such as Shadoyama, dont@me, and Clashknight90 would be members of this moderator team. The Thunder Crisis, in addition to the Moderator Rebellion, led to a complete reformation that was several years in the making, but only would be realized upon the rebellion's end. The lack of members in the Galactic Senate led to a constitutional crisis that would lead to a complete reformation, with PatPeter removing the Old Guard officers of Teamspeak until thy would make an appearance within the Discord.
