Replicating Sweet in a Minecraft world.

Photo of the ground at Garn just down the road from West Lirmi, which can be seen in the background*.

(this is my new narrative where instead of West Lirmi and Garn being interchangeable names for the same town, the town is actually called West Lirmi, and the ground is located at a nearby locality called Garn. While in truth the footy team here is possible due to the regional population surrounding West Lirmi, it has a technical history dating back to the original Garn FC when there were multiple teams here in the district. West Lirmi had its own team once but it has long since gone and all players local to the area eventually ended up at Garn).

Sweet FA Road Trips - S33R15 Colosseum to Abdu Prison



The trip from Rasasidge in the near west to Abu Ghraib in the east takes u along mostly Legend Parade and Peninsula Drive, and spans the suburbs of Nou Camp and Docklands.

This video is part of a Minecraft replication of locations in the world of Sweet, the manufactured geographical home of the Sweet Football Association. The capture of play was effected via an off-server copy of the world - the Bigfooty server is back online but stability is still under testing.

The Sweet FA is the Australian Football community's foremost (only) simulated fantasy Aussie Rules league, which commenced in 2001, and is now enjoying its 33rd season, stronger than ever (and that's just the smell).

Sweet FA Road Trips - S33R15 Van Cortlandt Park to The Eyrie



Tomorrow the Warriors from Docklands' VCP will meet the Phoenix of The Eyrie as the 33rd season of the Sweet FA approaches finals time. We will examine the simplest route between Docklands & Tiger Island which does not preclude ferry travel.

Past the Whore Tree and out the back gate onto Wombat Road, a left onto Vanders Avenue, which forms the border between Attenboro & Alberton suburbs. Right onto Sandola and past the Alberton Pub, down Dock St and the Last Port of Call floats by.

At the dock, we can see the old Alberton Oval on the right, and the hippodrome across the river. But we'll flick around the headlands via ferry, under the bridge connecting Punt to Tiger Island and sneak in the back way via a nondescript dock on the rear of the island. One pedestrian alleyway later and we're at the Eyrie.

Sweet FA Road Trips - S33R15 Stadium In The Sky to The Golden Throne



From the rooftop of Los Carraras Shopping Complex to the northern suburbs, the Bears will travel tomorrow to meet the Royals at the Throne. Here's one way to get there.

Out the north doors of the shopping centre, through Old Town and across the footbridge to The Heights, into Dun Lop and circling around the arena to the north. Across another footbridge into Golden Valley, down past Kennedy Park (ruins) and in the north gates of the ground.

Sweet FA Road Trips - S33R15 Snowdome to House of Gumby



There were reports that the panda plague terrorising the forested hills north of Gumbania was finally wearing itself out. As a result, the ENP route from Ashcombe to the north-east coastal suburb is again open to traffic.

It's still a poorly signposted and often labyrinthine journey, so Team Pump officials are urged to take care if you wish to reach the House of Gumby via the Expansion National Park. Pack a cut lunch and keep an uncut one for spares.

The route shown travels directly east around the northern fringes of Sweet, and then enters the forested northern parkland, before emerging on the coastline just north of Gumbania.

Sweet FA Road Trips - S33R15 ljp86's lair to Underground Stadium​




The Dragons play the Swamprats tomorrow as Season 33 approaches the vinegar strokes. Here's a path from Dragon Island across the waves to Alberton, through Attenboro and eventually to the shopping complex in Nou Camp. A few small short cuts along the way, debatable whether worthwhile.

Sweet FA Road Trips - S33R17 BJO to House of Gumby



Here we see the most direct route from the Brunswick Street Oval to Gumby Gardens, shown as the path existed way back in Season 26 (2018) versus current day Season 33 (2022).

Old Town and the western half of Sweet CBD are not greatly changed, just a few additions here and there. But once we start to approach Gumbania Road, the difference becomes stark.

Notable are the change of colouring on the House of Gumby from blue and white to a two blues motif, and the momentary glimpse of the old HOG ground from the back of the terrace.

North of the River Sweet, only heritage buildings dotted the landscape, a small shack on the left, followed by Bostrich's Burgers, and later Gumbania Homestead on the right. Even the metro subway entrance was absent in S26.

Sweet FA Road Trips - Sweet CBD 2018



A back-harking to the early days of the Sweet municipality build, from just after the server loss in 2017. This video shows the rolling plains of Sweet prior to development, with just a random couple of buildings in place.

Espiable are what is now the music store, the stables where the cinema now stands, a smaller scale retirement village, and a fledgling BJO in it's gestative years.

What follows are a set of overhead perspectives of the CBD as it grows towards it's current form as a bustling - if flog-infested - metropolis, or a tropolis anyway, or perhaps just an olis.

My laptop is rooted again so I can't produce new content. This was all compiled from material up to 5 years old. Sweet itself, on Minecraft, is aged 7 years and 1 month.

Sweet FA Road Trips - S34 Abdu Prison to Spotswood Park



That's right, there's a new team in town! The OOB host the Baghdad Bombers at Spotswood Park this week, and today I thought we would examine a leisurely trek from Abdu Prison to the new arena.

Stopping, sometimes even diverting, in order to catch some of the attractions en route, this path is by no means direct. But with so much to see and do, one cannot be blamed for making a number of stops.

This video is part of a Minecraft replication of locations in the world of Sweet, the manufactured geographical home of the Sweet Football Association. The server is currently out of action, therefore this trip was recorded on a snapshot copy - leading to an inability to show dogs105's kennels in all their glories!

The Sweet FA is the Australian Football community's foremost (only) simulated fantasy Aussie Rules league, which commenced in 2001, and is now approaching its 34th season, in full bloom with the equal largest number of teams competing in any one season - one needs to go all the way back to Season 04 for the other 13-team season!

Slight correction here, DenieD was evicted when he was released from his contract to sign with the Gumbies, given the property adjoins Van Cortlandt Park and is in fact property of the Coney Island Warriors Fantasy Football Club Pty Ltd.

And yet, I have still been squatting there for the past season, spying on everything Coney island does.
