Notable Builds[edit]
SoDoSoPa — bhelley's Place (Diaspora)[edit]
SoDoSoPa is a settlement in Diaspora at approximately (−720, 66, −1112) in region r.−2.−3, named after the South Park district. bhelley built his residence at approximately (−789, 89, −1155) on November 29, 2020 — the earliest build in the settlement. Lina arrived December 19, 2020; MCBIOX established the piglin bartering farm that winter; felixdeportu left a copy of his Gear Guide v1 in the settlement as a community resource, though he was not a resident.
Helley Cove (Diaspora)[edit]
bhelley's second Diaspora settlement, documented by nether signs at (−315, 55, −127) and (−252, 56, −80) in nether r.−1.−1. The road to Helley Cove was marked "ROAD CLOSED AHEAD DANGER!" at time of scan. The settlement was named as a Traveling Circus nether checkpoint alongside Morius, placing it on the recognized expedition route.
Community Blaze Grinder (Diaspora Nether, January 1, 2021)[edit]
bhelley participated in the construction of the community blaze grinder at nether (66, 59–60, −345), built on New Year's Day 2021 alongside Wizardofire, TheWanderingFool, crumpet, and felixdeportu, with MCBIOX as witness. The grinder is Traveling Circus crew infrastructure and remains in service.
Helley Waystation (Bankrekka)[edit]
The Nether Express lists the Helley Waystation as a waypoint at nether coordinates (351, 90, 60). Helley Desert Way is a named route in the highway network. These represent bhelley's documented Bankrekka nether presence.
The RyanPhantom Trial[edit]
During the community court event in March 2025 — the Trial of RyanPhantom the Phantom — bhelley contributed from the gallery with two messages that became the most legally precise contributions to pre-trial proceedings in server history.
The first, upon the charges being formalized:
- "Make sure you include the leg irons for this dangerous criminal"
The second, after Arctic Emerald offered blaze rods to anyone "taking bribes" in preparation for the trial:
- "Arctic, please edit that post. What you meant to say is gratuities"
- "The US Supreme court has ruled that gratuities to government officials are acceptable."
- "See Snyder vs United States and its implications for 18 U.S.C. §201"
Arctic Emerald confirmed: "Yes yes thats right gratuities." Snyder v. United States (2024) is a real Supreme Court case. bhelley applied it to a Minecraft blaze rod transaction during a murder trial. The citation stands.
