DonFuer 25
Donfuer 25 was a base founded on August 12, 2022, by Donfuer, following the completion of the group's Aureus City Rebuild project. The base's design was a departure from the group's usual style, being a modern city divided into various districts. Prior to its destruction, it was one of the largest player made cities on the server.
History
Groundbreaking and construction
Construction began on August 13th, 2022, after NamoVFX first arrived at the location and quickly began building the first seawalls. More members arrived and began building over the following days, and the pace in construction increased significantly. Next to the signboard, an Aureus City Rebuild Commemoration tower was built by D loaded, as well as a McDonald's Restaurant. DonFuer 25 had multiple districts, including a financial district based on New York City designed by Warske, a casino district based on Fallout New Vegas designed Darkomier, and a futuristic district designed by Phosph0lipid. A suburban district was later added, built in part by N8TT and Joetheblue. The suburban district contained a row of townhouses, a seawall with walkways, a skate park, an abandoned plantation house, and many suburban-styled houses. All houses were built with no interiors, a staple of DonFuer's building style. The activities in the suburban district mirrored those of the downtown district, with space being occupied quickly, causing NamoVFX to terraform a sizable amount of new buildable space to accommodate the expansion. This cycle continued throughout the base's lifetime. An underground metrosystem was built by Darkomier and Alexkooj to connect all key locations of the base. The digging of the subway also helped collect materials for the base. Each main district had a station that connected to all other area through a railway system, increasing the efficiency of the team. It took roughly one week to finish the digging and building. The final district was comprised of a park, a harbor, a theme park, and several high-rise buildings.
Destruction
Attacks on the Southern Canal—whose builders DonFuer had allied with—as well as grander plans for the city and recent visits by Centxuri and 2b2t_, spurred increased activity and fears of a potential grief. Concerns grew as it was found out that 2b2t_ stole materials from the base<ref>
</ref>, along with rumours being spread of catgirllana having coordinates to the base. This prompted the leadership within Donfuer to agree on trying to quickly finish the building of a specific district of the base, intending to self greif the base upon completion<ref>
</ref>. Meanwhile the leadership of the group had also been messaging Fit and showing him renders of the base intending to grab his attention and have him make a video on the base in order to bring attention to the base itself and Donfuer<ref>
</ref>. Knowing it was unlikely for a base to get into a Fit video without an engaging story the leadership of the group would agree with Fit to fabricate a story about the base being leaked by a member's girlfriend<ref>
</ref>. This was done without the majority of the members knowledge with the exception of the groups nobles and Phosph0lipid<ref>
</ref>. To give credibility to the story a discord alt account was created on the 17th of November 2022 which supposedly belonged to ‘Lucie’, the girlfriend which was said to have leaked the coordinates<ref>
</ref>. The account was used to message Orsond on November 18th 2022, ‘leaking’ coordinates to the base<ref>
</ref>, the account also claimed to have shared coordinates with BSB<ref>
</ref>, which is false<ref>
</ref><ref>
</ref>. On the 19th of November 2022 Donfuer leadership would self grief the base and have Fit run the falsified story in his video ‘The Girlfriend That LEAKED This 2b2t Base’.
