MunchyMC Newsletter: Edition 75 - April 2024
Wow, it appears we’re already in May! This month, even if things were somewhat calmer on most servers, we got to interview three incredible members of the community, so read along if you want to find out more about them!
Pssst, let’s all take a moment to remind ourselves about the Rat Day, on the fourth of April… and hats off to the thoughtful ones who did celebrate it, including a certain @EvilRat guy…

Interview
thecolorblurple
If you’ve been around Munchy for a while now, then you should for sure know who @thecolorblurple is! She first joined the server in the last few months of 2021 and she’s been quite a noticeable member of the community ever since because of her activity on pretty much every gamemode. Blurple, former Co-Host, recently became an Event Builder. Those status allowed her to make use of her creativity and imagination to come up with amazing event maps, builds, parkours and such! With this in mind, I invite you to check out this interview to find out more about herself and her work!
Click here for the interview!
Where did your username, thecolorblurple, and skin originate from?
“I used to really enjoy watching Purpled’s YouTube videos and I wanted a username that was kinda similar to his. I chose an alien-themed skin, because Purpled was somewhat associated with UFOs and aliens back then.”
Are there any fun facts about yourself that you wish to share with us?
“My favorite color is red. :)”
Originally, what made you join the server?
“I saw a tiktok of someone saying they got to play in Minecraft events with BadBoyHalo and I thought that was so cool.”
What do you like doing the most on the server?
“I love playing in events, not to win but just to have fun.”
What’s your favorite memory of a moment you’ve had on the server?
“My favorite memory is probably joining my first event on the server on the 16th of October 2021. I was so amazed by everything, like climbing up a giant pumpkin, playing in a halloween maze and in Red Rover and also getting to see a lot of other YouTubers that were there that day.”
What are your favorite events and why do you favor them the most?
“My favorite events are anything luck-based, like Lucky Cheese, 4 Corners and Musical Chairs, since I’m terrible at skill-based events. ”
When it comes to building, what are, in your opinion, your most notable strengths?
“My strengths are likely my creativity and ideas that I can put into my builds. I love trying to think of new events to create.”
What’s one of the very first builds you remember making?
“The first ever build that I made after becoming a Co-Host in 2022 was a parkour in the event spawn. It wasn’t very good, but it was fun to make!”
Amongst all the event maps and builds that you’ve made for the event server, is there one that particularly strucks out to you and why?
“Hmmm, probably my combination of Last to Stop Running and Waterdrop. I haven’t seen anyone build this before, so I think it’s pretty unique.”
Are there any projects you’re currently working on that you can tell us about, whether it’s related to the server or not?
“I’m working on a new Hide and Seek map on the event server! It’s galaxy and space-themed. :D”
Do you have anything else to add to the intention of those reading this?
“I hope everyone reading this has a nice day!!!”

Community Art Highlights!
Hello hello! Been a while! It seems like Nao took very good care of the art highlights last month so let’s just get into what I have to show you this month!
Of course it’s time for a new artist interview, this one is with someone you might not really have seen much from but I think you will appreciate it regardless, and as usual we have an art gallery filled with creative masterpieces.
Artist Interview with MostLikelySam
Is this interview choice a bit biased? Yeah probably! MostLikelySam has never posted her art in the creations channel but as her friend I think this is a nice way to show her art to you reading the newsletters and also making my job here a little bit easier :D
