HISTORY ยท LIVED YEAR

2020

Mugen starts a club. four friends come with her. government happens immediately. then the server needs a map.

THE FOUNDING YEAR, WITHOUT THE TELEPORTING.

January and February are pre-UL. From March forward, every month gets at least one surviving thing the house was doing: rules, neutrality, rooms, jokes, court, bots, family maps, promotions, and the first holiday sign-off.

JANUARY 2020PRE-ULuser confirmed

NO UL YET.

Underlords does not exist yet. The founding circle has not crossed from Dragon Raja / Altissa into the new club. This quiet slot stays visible because chronology is allowed to begin before the crime.

ARCHIVE RECEIPT
MUGS-CONFIRMED PRE-UL HISTORYThe future founding circle first knows one another through Dragon Raja and Altissa.

No Discord screenshot is manufactured for a period before UL exists.

FEBRUARY 2020PRE-ULuser confirmed

STILL PRE-UL.

One more month before Underlords is founded. Keeping this empty beat makes March feel like an actual start rather than a page that pretends the calendar began when the server did.

ARCHIVE RECEIPT
MUGS-CONFIRMED PRE-UL HISTORYThe new club has not been created yet.

No invented February event.

MARCH 2020DRAGON RAJA / ALTISSA โ†’ ULuser confirmed

MUGEN STARTS UNDERLORDS.

Mugen starts Underlords. Ritha, WolfPhenix, Suzimasu, and HyaLuna come with her from Altissa. Five friends become the founding circle; the bureaucracy has not yet had time to hatch.

Underlords Stripclub BouncerBOT21:30
Hey @Deleted User, welcome to Underlords! Pls state your ign / club and age for role assignment. Thanks

Now zoom out.

The month chronicle keeps the year from turning into six milestones. These are the larger patterns the archive supports after the scenes are back in view.

01

MARCH 18 โ€” MUGEN STARTS UNDERLORDS

March 18: Mugen later recovers the creation date from old pics. April 3: "is it ok for us to make this the official UL server for now?" Snow: "nope I made this for ya'll". Minutes later the server is renamed "UnderLords".

02

APRIL โ€” RULES. ALREADY.

The surviving Rules channel starts April 4. UL has existed for approximately five minutes and has already discovered age rules, officer authority, escalation, accountability, Judgement, and the cruel reality that vibes do not scale forever.

03

MAY โ†’ AUGUST โ€” โ€œUL PRIORITIZES NEUTRALITYโ€

May 15: warning, repeat-offender removal, "with documentation". August: Snow writes the neutral stance into JAG. The May post itself says the guidelines were already "in place for over a month".

04

AUGUST 15โ€“19 โ€” THE HOUSE ACQUIRES A MAP

August 15: while promising to clean up the rooms, Mugs says "in the meantime i made a map QwQ", links "#๐ŸŽซ๏ฝœul-discord-tour", and adds "for the lost souls". August 16: Announcements sends lost people to the same Tour while Discord changes are being made "to simplify things". August 19: Lobby calls it the "server map" during role assignment. The exact channel-object creation timestamp still belongs to Discord audit logs we do not have; the historical point is already ridiculous enough โ€” five-month-old game club: rules, court, art rooms multiplying, and now reusable wayfinding.

05

FALL โ€” EVERYBODY MOVE IN

September 29, Gilli: "I like Raja because of Underlords lol". For at least one member, the people are already becoming part of what makes the game worth playing.

06

SEPTEMBER 22 โ€” SABER OPENS A RECURRING EVENT SCHEDULE

07

SEPTEMBER 29 โ€” โ€œWE R UPDATING THE UL FAMILY TUMBLEWEEDโ€

08

OCTOBER 12 โ€” GABU IS PROMOTED TO LIEUTENANT (SENIOR ADVISOR)

09

OCTOBER 15 โ€” โ€œPLS STATE YOUR IGN / CLUB AND AGEโ€

April 11, Mugen: "All we need to know is minor or no". October: the Bouncer learns the age field. December 9, Gilli: "for age you can just say minor or not minor".

10

DECEMBER 20 โ€” โ€œLETโ€™S KEEP UNDERLORDS STRIPPIN FOR 2021โ€

First winter: "warm company", "fam", and a sequel already requested.

11

2020 IN ONE SENTENCE

UL builds bureaucracy and intimacy at the same speed, which is how a fresh game guild ends the year with friends, officers, jurisprudence, a screenshot problem and one extremely occupied group chat.

SOURCE NOTES 35
๐ŸŸฉ RECEIPTS2020-05-17

On May 17, 2020, a Lobby welcome told Rookie Cookie: `Whiskey room is for general chat, slice of life is for irl photos and chat, the louvre is for art, grind bl is for boy love`, then directed further questions to the speaker or a higher-up.

๐Ÿฎ Lobby recovered export

Discord message 711795663389851658. SAID BY pooled Deleted User account 456226577798135808; do not resolve that pooled identity to one person. The message has no attachment. It establishes room-function wording, not room creation dates. `grind bl` is preserved exactly as written and is not used here to assert stable-ID continuity with later `simp-here` without a separate join.

๐ŸŸจ HEAR ME OUT2020-05 โ€“ 2020-08

Reading May 17 โ†’ August 16โ€“19 as person-to-person wayfinding becoming reusable wayfinding is an inference: the room map is first recovered in a human welcome, then the Tour is explicitly where lost people are sent and is called the `server map` during onboarding.

๐Ÿฎ Lobby recovered export๐ŸŽซ Discord Tour cross-room chronology

This does not move the Tour's creation date to May. August 16 remains the earliest currently recovered operational Tour reference; August 19 remains the earliest currently recovered explicit Lobby `server map` handoff. The May receipt is the manual precursor.

๐ŸŸฉ RECEIPTS2020-08-15

On August 15, 2020, Mugen wrote `in the meantime i made a map QwQ`, linked `#๐ŸŽซ๏ฝœul-discord-tour`, and added `for the lost souls`; this is the earliest currently recovered creation-like / operational Tour-map receipt.

The line proves a map/Tour already exists as usable infrastructure and strongly suggests active creation/construction. It is not a Discord audit-log channel-creation timestamp.

๐ŸŸฉ RECEIPTS2020-04-03

On April 3, 2020, Mugen asked Snow `is it ok for us to make this the official UL server for now?`; Snow answered `nope I made this for ya'll`.

๐Ÿ’ข Bosses Office recovered export

Discord messages 695876110315159572 and 695876198689144834. This dates the surviving server being adopted as UL's official Discord; it is not a Discord server-object creation timestamp.

๐ŸŸฉ RECEIPTS2020-04-03

Minutes later on April 3, Mugen asked Snow to rename the server `UnderLords`; Snow confirmed the rename, and later told her `Mugs this is your server.. you do with it as you like`.

๐Ÿ’ข Bosses Office recovered export

Messages 695877981725261865, 695878183110574120, and 695889187957899324. Surrounding setup also defines restricted Upper Management access, VIP guest access, and Bouncer authority, but those details stay in the Safe House intake rather than being inflated into extra History beats here.

๐ŸŸจ HEAR ME OUT2020-03-18 โ†’ 2020-04-03

Read beside the recovered March 18 founding date, April 3 is the point where the social club acquires a named official Discord home in the surviving record โ€” before the April 4 rules receipt and before the later room-map/Tour infrastructure.

Early Safe House clearance-room intake

This is a chronology reading of the dated founding recovery and April 3 server-adoption messages. It does not claim Discord caused the club's founding, that April 3 was the server object's technical creation date, or that every later room already existed that day.

๐ŸŸฉ RECEIPTS2020-06-14

On June 14, 2020, Mugen announced coordinated Clash of Swords jumps intended to get the most members in at once: the plan had been discussed with officers, used two scheduled jumps to cover different time zones, and chose times based on when more members were observed online; she credited Illien for the suggestion.

๐ŸŸฉ RECEIPTS2020-09-22

On September 22, 2020, Saber set `#saber_control` as its control channel and created a `new_schedule` schedule with commands for recurring events and optional Google Calendar sync.

๐ŸŸฉ RECEIPTS2020-09-22

That same morning, Snow used Saber to create repeating Dragon Raja event reminders; the recovered Project Rhein command is stored as a weekly Saturday event.

The recovered transcript renders the destination as `#deleted-channel`; this site does not backfill a historical channel name from later Discord state.

๐ŸŸจ HEAR ME OUT2020-06-14 โ†’ 2020-09-22

June's manually coordinated, time-zone-aware event timing and September's reusable Saber schedule show the same operational problem moving from officer-planned coordination into bot-maintained infrastructure within the founding year.

This is a progression visible in the surviving evidence, not a claim that June 14 was UL's first scheduled event or that Saber replaced every manual reminder.

๐ŸŸฉ RECEIPTS2020-09-29

On September 29, 2020, Anthos posted `Underlords_Tumbleweed.png` in Club Only during a live family-map work session and later told the room, `we r updating the UL family tumbleweed`.

๐ŸŸฉ RECEIPTS2020-09-01 โ†’ 2020-09-29

September 29 is an update session, not the Tumbleweed's creation date: on September 1, Mugen had already posted `Tumbleweed problems` with a Tumbleweed-related screenshot to the Wall.

๐ŸŸฉ RECEIPTS2021-08-24

On August 24, 2021, Ren replied `Sounds like UnderLords Tumbleweed`, showing that the Tumbleweed name still functioned as legible house vocabulary nearly a year later.

๐ŸŸจ HEAR ME OUT2020-09-29

By late September 2020, UL's joke-family relationships and internal character lore were durable enough to be maintained as a shared, revisable visual artifact.

The Tumbleweed is house mythology, not literal kinship, romance, recruitment, or appointment chronology. Anthos's `lets add dean to mugs then from there we can add cel and woo etc` is map-editing language in this work session, not evidence that Dean was being recruited into UL.

๐ŸŸฉ RECEIPTS2020-12-20

On December 20, 2020, Mugen thanked UL for the `warm company and all the fun this past year`, wrote that she was glad and honored to have known `all of you fam`, and closed with `let's keep Underlords strippin for 2021`.

๐ŸŸจ HEAR ME OUT2020-12-20

The December 20 message is a contemporary continuity marker: by UL's first winter, Mugen is already framing the group through family/company language and explicitly projecting Underlords into the next year.

This is a reading of Mugen's own year-end wording, not proof that anyone in 2020 knew how long UL would survive.

๐ŸŸฉ RECEIPTS2020-10-12

On October 12, 2020, Mugen publicly congratulated `Drink water reminder` โ€” Gabu's recovered Discord identity โ€” on promotion to `Lieutenant (Senior Advisor)`.

This is a direct dated promotion announcement. It does not rely on export-time role arrays.

๐ŸŸฉ RECEIPTS2020-09-22

On September 22, 2020, Mugen asked Snow whether `saiko komon/secretary` had been changed to `senior advisor`.

This documents title nomenclature being actively discussed before Gabu's October promotion. It is not itself a promotion record and does not establish when the title was created or changed globally.

๐ŸŸจ HEAR ME OUT2020-09-22 โ†’ 2020-10-12

By fall 2020, UL's officer structure was formal enough for named title changes to be discussed and a promotion into a named officer tier to be announced publicly.

The inference is limited to visible title-management and direct promotion evidence. It does not reconstruct the entire hierarchy or appointment order.

๐ŸŸฉ RECEIPTS2020-10-12

The October 12 receipt dates only Gabu's promotion to the historical title `Lieutenant (Senior Advisor)`. It does not date her current Underboss appointment, prove that the two titles are equivalent, or establish a wider officer succession sequence.

Current-role canon and historical appointment chronology remain separate. Later export-time role arrays are not appointment timestamps.

๐ŸŸฉ RECEIPTS2020-05-15

On May 15, 2020, Mugen restated UL's Moon Realm directive as `1v1. No jumping, no ganging up. Walk away after respawn` while referencing an earlier leaders meeting with 7S.

This is a dated operational directive around 7S's announced May 16 Moon Realm event. It is not the origin of UL's neutrality policy.

๐ŸŸฉ RECEIPTS2020-05-15

In the same May 15 announcement sequence, Mugen says the guidelines had already been in place `for over a month`, says UL prioritizes neutrality to preserve its relaxed vibe, and sets warning plus repeat-offender removal `with documentation`.

Because the source itself says the guidelines predate this message, History does not use May 15 as the policy's creation date.

๐ŸŸฉ RECEIPTS2020-05-15

Mugen's May 15 moderation boundary distinguishes public escalation from private/internal venting: `No raging and no personal attacks on world chat`; `Rant in club chat or DM if you have to.`

The archive supports a channel/context boundary here; it does not support reading the directive as a ban on members expressing frustration anywhere.

๐ŸŸฉ RECEIPTS2020-08-07

On August 7, Snow's JAG Charge 6 names attempts to overthrow or destroy `our club's neutral stance` beside the line about disturbance against `Mugens peaceful tea time`.

๐ŸŸจ HEAR ME OUT2020-05-15 โ†’ 2020-08-07

Read chronologically, the August JAG neutral-stance language formalizes in mock-legal form a neutrality policy already visible in live conflict moderation and documented enforcement by May.

This is a cross-archive institutional reading of two dated policy texts. The archive does not say Mugen's May announcement directly caused Snow's August draft or establish the exact origin date of the neutrality policy.

๐ŸŸฉ RECEIPTS2020-04-11

On April 11, 2020, Mugen wrote in Lobby: `All we need to know is minor or no`.

This is a direct contemporaneous boundary on age disclosure: the minor/adult category is sufficient in this recovered scene. It does not establish the creation date of the Platelet role, the first age check, or a universal written privacy policy.

๐ŸŸฉ RECEIPTS2020-09-30

On September 30, 2020, the Bouncer automatically welcomed B-chan; thirty-one seconds later a human followed with `hiii @B-chan ign and club pls!`.

This is a recovered operational boundary: the bot is handling the greeting while a person still asks for the intake details. It is not the bot's installation or creation date.

๐ŸŸฉ RECEIPTS2020-10-15

On October 15, 2020, the Bouncer itself welcomed a newcomer and asked for `ign / club and age for role assignment`; the same message carried a generated `card.png` attachment.

This is the earliest standardized IGN / club / age Bouncer prompt with an exact original-card join recovered in this pass. It does not establish that October 15 was the first time the configuration existed.

๐ŸŸจ HEAR ME OUT2020-09-30 โ†’ 2020-10-15

Between the September 30 and October 15 recovered Lobby scenes, the repetitive intake question moves from the human follow-up into the bot greeting itself.

The archive demonstrates the before/after states, not the exact configuration-change timestamp. The bot asks for information `for role assignment`; it does not prove MEE6 assigned roles or automated the full onboarding process.

๐ŸŸฉ RECEIPTS2020-12-08

On December 8, 2020, Ayanokokoro answered the age field by saying they were `not comfortable saying it` but could say they were a minor.

The historical point is the newcomer's stated disclosure boundary. Export-time role arrays are not used to infer when or how any minor-identification role was assigned.

๐ŸŸฉ RECEIPTS2020-12-09

On December 9, 2020, Gilli explicitly told another Lobby intake that `for age you can just say minor or not minor`.

This restates a minimum-disclosure boundary already visible in Mugen's April 11 `minor or no` line. It does not establish the creation date of the Platelet role or a universal written policy.

๐ŸŸจ HEAR ME OUT2020-04-11 โ†’ 2020-12-09

Read chronologically, the minimum-disclosure boundary predates the automated prompt: Mugen says `minor or no` in April, the Bouncer standardizes IGN / club / age intake by October, and Gilli restates `minor or not minor` in December. Automation formalizes the field without erasing the earlier human boundary around exact age disclosure.

This is a workflow interpretation of dated Lobby messages, not a claim that UL adopted a formal data-minimization policy, that every greeter handled age disclosure identically, or that April 11 created the underlying safeguarding practice.

๐ŸŸฉ RECEIPTS2020-04-11 โ†’ 2020-12-09

Later export-time role arrays attached to MEE6 or newcomers are not used to date bot configuration, minor-role assignment, staffing status, or onboarding chronology.

Historical dating here comes from message content, timestamps, and the exact October attachment join only.

๐ŸŸฉ RECEIPTS2020-09-29

On September 29, 2020, Gilli wrote in Club Only: `I like Raja because of Underlords lol`.

This is Gilli's own contemporaneous statement. It does not establish that every member felt the same way or that Dragon Raja was already unimportant to UL as a whole.

๐ŸŸจ HEAR ME OUT2020-09-29

Gilli's September 29 line is an early member-voiced example of the relationship beginning to feed back into the game: for at least one person, Underlords had become part of what made Raja worth liking.

Treat this as a precursor to later game/community decoupling, not as proof that the 2020 club had already decoupled from Dragon Raja.
