The NickolasDiamond Bounty Crisis
On January 27 of 2026, activity on MCO was largely routine , during this time
NickolasDiamond a well known and infamous head hunter publicly asked if anyone was interested in helping build a schematic
Simultaneously a dispute unfolded in public chat between
Ghomik and the and the infamous troll
snakyman , the exchange escalated as
snakyman repeatedly insulted
Ghomik , drawing attention from other players online at the time
The Crystal Trap Incident
while the public argument was ongoing,
NickolasDiamond requested that
snakyman accept a teleport,
snakyman accepted the request and was instantly teleported into a pre-existing crystal trap.
Although the trap already existed, this was it's first known use , and
snakyman was killed immediately upon arrival.
The death caused an immediate escalation, followed by public arguments regarding responsibility and intent
The Bounty Declaration
in response to the trap death ,
snakyman publicly placed a bounty of six full stacks of DB on
NickolasDiamond, The bounty was considered exceptionally high and rapidly drew server-wide attention
At this point, the situation shifted from personal dispute into a broader conflict involving reputation, retaliation, and high level PvP expectations
Miqdam Involvement
Following the bounty announcement ,
Miqdam a trusted associate of both parties and a staff member of Newport was put between the crossroad of picking a side.
Newport, one of the largest cities in MCO history was fully owned and controlled by
snakyman , making
Miqdam involvement particularly significant and so he ended up picking Newport side and went on his way to claim the bounty that was put on what many consider the greatest PvPer ever
The Battle
Miqdam confronted
NickolasDiamond, initiating a PvP engagement that would last over one hour.
Miqdam who was a gold kit user at the time did struggle against
NickolasDiamond who was an aether kit user , The fight was continuous and relentless with neither side disengaging. over the course of the battle both players exchanged nonestop attacks breaking each other multiple fully maxed gear sets
During the fight itself
Miqdam placed numerous shulker boxes at
NickolasDiamond base, an action that would later become significant
NickolasDiamond's Death
near the end of engagement , after losing all remaining viable gear sets,
NickolasDiamond detonated explosives, killing himself
The explosion served both as a suicide and as an attempt to kill
Miqdam, While
NickolasDiamond died ,
Miqdam survived , and effectively ending the battle and leaving the bounty unresolved through conventional means.
Aftermath and Ban
Later that same evening,
Miqdam was banned from MCO by
Cosmic_potato_04.
The ban was issued due to the placement of a larger number of shulker boxes at
NickolasDiamond base which had occurred during the battle and was deemed a violation of server rules due to being used to gain an upper hand in the battle which is debatable.
The decision was controversial due to
Miqdam role in confronting the bounty and his staff position within newport and the timing of the enforcement following a high-profile PvP battle.
Later
Miqdam got unbanned again from
Anna_28 after checking all details.
