In the time that other people are getting their doctorate, a Reddit user built his very own kingdom in Minecraft.
Who is this player? dancsa222, as he goes by on Reddit, presents in a post on r/gaming his Minecraft world: The Kingdom of Galekin. He started working on it on February 12, 2012, almost exactly 13 years ago.
Since then, he has continuously expanded the map with new details, complete areas, and cities. The community is celebrating his achievement.
While he works on his map, others have gotten married twice
The community on Reddit is thrilled. ToyMasamune writes in recognition of this achievement: “It’s amazing! I will compensate for these 13 years of dedication now: Have my upvote.”
kulero_conor reminds that dancsa222 could have spent his time far worse: “In this time, one could get a doctorate, but this is cooler.” A discussion develops about whether this achievement could actually help him in job hunting.
Other Reddit users know of cases where people have used their experience in EVE Online or World of Warcraft to get a job.
- Strange Bedfellows: “EVE has been used to get jobs, I have seen it mentioned on EPRs [another user explains that this might refer to Enlisted Performance Reports].”
- Sevrdhed: “In an interview, someone used the improvement of his WoW DPS as an example of how he solved problems. He got the job and proved to be a fantastic colleague, and we are still friends today.”
While dancsa 222 worked on this project, much has changed in the life of another Reddit user.
- polo1boss writes: “13 years? Bro, during this time I got married, got divorced, remarried, and learned how to fold a fitted sheet. But hey, your Minecraft kingdom looks dope!”
Do you want to see more of the world? dancsa222 also has a YouTube channel under the name Linard. There he shows his world in a video in even greater detail. He also makes it clear that he is far from done with this world.
If you want to visit the Kingdom of Galekin yourself, you can even do so – for a small fee. Just check the description of the YouTube video.
For a short time, “Minecraft 2” was actually on the table. However, just a few days later, the developer rowed back. Why there will be no sequel is explained in this article: No, you’re not getting Minecraft 2 – Notch prefers to do something else
