The Traveling Circus
The Traveling Circus was a series of cooperative branch-mining expeditions in the Alpha Centauri IV era, documented on video. The name was coined by Mycroft53 during the first tour after he adopted a sheep named Derrick the Sheepshin as the group's mascot.

The Expedition[edit]
The group organized a coordinated branch-mine in mountainous terrain. Wizardofire assigned mining sections at the start:
You're going to do the middle two, I'm going to do the left two. I'm just going to do the right two. Mycroft, are you doing the top three?
Mycroft established a camp. He found a sheep, named it Derrick the Sheepshin, and announced the event:
It's Derrick the Sheepshin. This is your traveling circus, Derrick.
Rottorz identified the biome and confirmed valuable resources:
We're under extreme hills right now, so there are going to be emeralds all throughout this find shed.
The group followed a systematic torch-marking method — torches placed on the right side to track direction. The expedition yielded emeralds, coal, and redstone. The event was recorded on video.
Second Tour[edit]
A second tour took place in April 2020, during the Diaspora era. Mycroft53 is documented as a participant.
