Burnt Wall Crisis

The Burnt Wall Crisis was a confusing dilemma and storyline regarding the burning down of a wall that surrounded Smajor1995 and Solidarity's base.

Initial Discovery
When GoodTimesWithScar was travelling through the dark oak forest in the centre of the map, he notices the wall, which is located in allies' base, The Flower Valley, burning down. Scar enters the base and searches for Smajor1995 and Solidarity, but fails to find them. He then heads to SmallishBeans house and is unable to find him.

He ultimately decides to ignore it and goes to go ameliorate relations with the Crastle people. He tells ZombieCleo he just witnessed the wall burning down and ZombieCleo tells him to tell Smajor1995 and Solidarity. Scar agrees with ZombieCleo and notices Solidarity running towards the forest. He catches up and tells him that the wall is on fire, so Solidarity runs off to save his base.

Discovering the Damage
Solidarity runs to his base to find Smajor1995 looking around at the damage. Only a small portion of the wall is burnt and the fire has been extinguished. Furious, the two Hobbits set out to find out who burnt down their wall. They head to the closest neighbour, SmallishBeans', house to interrogate him, however he is not in sight. They notice the banner of the Red Army/Dogwarts above his doorway.

Confronting Scar
They then head to The Village and see Scar once more. After asking Scar if he saw anyone burning down the wall, Scar asks Smajor1995 if Solidarity did it. Solidarity angrily denies it and asks Scar to explain his entire journey from seeing the flames to bringing up the alert. Scar explains that he first burnt down Etho's fortress, then noticed the fire, investigated The Flower Valley and then told Solidarity. Scar suspects that the Red Army are the culprits.

The Hobbits-Crastle Alliance
Smajor1995 and Solidarity come across ZombieCleo. The three of them arrange a secret alliance between the Hobbits and the Crastle people, despite both sides already being part of the greater Pizza Alliance. The two Hobbits ask whether ZombieCleo's partner-in-crime, BdoubleO100, would be alright with the new secret alliance just created. ZombieCleo explains that BdoubleO100 does not have an issue with the Hobbits in particularly, but rather with with Scar-Grian Alliance due to the Second and Third Siege of the Crastle. ZombieCleo also denies setting the wall on fire.

Questioning ImpulseSV
Smajor1995, Solidarity and ZombieCleo all head underground to ImpulseSV's secret villager monopoly room. They question ImpulseSV on whether he knows anything about the wall burning down. ImpulseSV suggests Scar as the culprit, due to Scar recently burning down the Wool Fortress. Smajor1995 says that Scar is their ally and most likely would not have burnt it down. After more chatting, the four of them again come to the conclusion of the Red Army being responsible.

Confronting Dogwarts
The group ventures to Renchanting and confronts Rendog and InTheLittleWoods. Smajor1995 clearly states that they come in peace, despite Solidarity drawing his bow. Smajor1995 questions where the two foes have been for the past while. InTheLittleWoods explains that they have not left their base the entire session. Solidarity puts down his bow after being punched by Smajor1995, telling him to put it down. The four allies thank the two members of the Red Army and leave, before Solidarity tells InTheLittleWoods he will return to kill him. The group begin suspecting Scar or his ally, Grian. ZombieCleo and ImpulseSV leave, as Smajor1995 and Solidarity head to SmallishBeans' base once more to question him.

Confronting Scar and Grian
The two then head to Scar and Grian's base in the Red Desert. Solidarity tells Scar that he's the only one who saw the flames and that everyone else has denied being involved. Scar explains that he could not have been the culprit because he used up his flint and steel burning down EthosLab's Wool Fortress. Grian backs Scar up, telling the Hobbits that Scar would have informed him if he burnt down the wall. The group discuss whether SmallishBeans may have been involved, saying that every time they have attempted to interrogate him, he has not been at his base. They then ask the question of if Rendog and InTheLittleWoods were lying. They also wonder if Skizzleman is involved in the situation. Etho's Raid occurs and the four allies kill EthosLab, who is part of the Red Army. Smajor1995 and Solidarity question TangoTek in the desert and he denies it, telling them that he and ImpulseSV were also discussing the situation.

First Face-Off at Dead Bush Hill
The Hobbits exit the desert and head back to SmallishBeans' base once more, where they find ZombieCleo. They head to the top of SmallishBeans' base and notice the Red Army exiting Renchanting. The Red Army head to Dead Bush Hill, as SmallishBeans heads to the top of his base. This is the start of the First Face-Off at Dead Bush Hill The Hobbits are confused to see ImpulseSV on their side. InTheLittleWoods follows SmallishBeans to the roof and questions whether he is part of the Red Army. SmallishBeans says he has no allegiances and takes down the Red Army's banner on the front of his base. In anger, the Red Army leaves and SmallishBeans join the Hobbits and the Crastle people.

Second Battle of Monopoly Mountain
The Red Army penetrate the Red Desert in an event that would later be known as the Second Battle of Monopoly Mountain. Scar asks the Red Army if they burnt down the wall that surrounds the Hobbits' base. InTheLittleWoods explains that the army has no idea and has been interrogated by people throughout the past session.

Rendog, the self-declared King of Dogwarts and the Red Army, alerts his team of incoming people. From over a sand dune, Smajor1995, Solidarity and ZombieCleo, come charging into the battlefield. InTheLittleWoods accuses Solidarity of intentionally burning his own wall, while Skizzleman accuses Scar.

SmallishBeans and TangoTek's names are also thrown into the mix and InTheLittleWoods notices TangoTek viewing the confrontation from the outskirts of the desert. TangoTek backs up behind a tree to attempt to avoid being seen.

Discovering the Culprit
Following the Dogwarts Raid and the Battle of Skizzle Point, the Hobbits head back to their home. SmallishBeans heads to the Flower Valley and begins burning down their wall once more. He also tries to kill Smajor1995. Solidarity runs out of his house to see SmallishBeans fleeing out and Smajor1995 putting out the flames.

The two of them head to SmallishBeans' house and once again meet up with ZombieCleo. SmallishBeans arrives and admits to burning down the wall both times, burning down the wall the first time at the start of the session. Smajor1995 says that he is willing to look past the ordeal in return for some trading. SmallishBeans agrees.

Second Face-Off of Dead Bush Hill
As Smajor1995, Solidarity, SmallishBeans and ZombieCleo are talking on Dead Bush Hill, the Red Army once again arrive and combat is engaged, beginning the start of the Second Face-Off at Dead Bush Hill. As arrows are flying, SmallishBeans unleashes a small group of his wolf army in an attempt to kill InTheLittleWoods. Arrows continue to fly and ZombieCleo decides it is best to get off the roof. Whilst trying to get to the ground level, she falls and dies, losing her first life.

ZombieCleo returns and the Red Army gives up after the countless arrows are fired. They retreat and the victors celebrate. An official alliance between SmallishBeans and the Hobbit and Crastle people part of the Pizza Alliance is arranged. All four of them decide to move on from the wall saga and declare that InTheLittleWoods needs to be reduced to his second life.

Reception
The Burnt Wall Crisis, despite only panning over a singular session, is considered by some to be the most confusing mystery that occurred during 3rd Life. The initial list of suspects included almost the entire server and the twist of SmallishBeans burning down the wall was something none of the other 3rd Lifers saw coming. The Burnt Wall Crisis was also created the incidents of the First and Second Face-Offs at Dead Bush Hill.
