A large mob invasion was recorded on video by the Silver Birch City Security cameras.
"Nothing has ever happened like this before. Never. Because of this, we ask all residents to be home before dark." Says a Silver Birch City Official.
Security Camera No. 5Mobs entered the city using these gaps:
Security Camera No. 7Because of this, we will ensure that all gaps will be mended.
A few minutes later, Security arrived and cleared out the hostile mobs in the area. There
is a "No Mobs Policy" for the city as seen in Camera 3 here:
"I was walking down the street towards the park when I heard a growl and I turned[around to see], a Zombie! I called[City officials] and quickly hurried away." Said a citizen near the "crime" scene when asked. "It was a true terror." Because of this "terror", a curfew has been added as stated above(No citizen should be out after dark). Please follow the rules and be safe.
"This has been the largest amount of mobs I've ever seen together," says a city official. "Is R
this because of 1.7?"
Just a reminder to any citizens of the City, please contact Afro_Rick via /mail send to notify him. New security measures will be taken up because of this. Please also keep a sword and/or bow in your hotbar for extra protection. Also, Officer G. Olem has been recruited as an officer.

This morning, all was going well until the screams of a resident was heard. At about 1:30SBST(Silver Birch Standard Time), an innocent resident was walking from the City Spawn as seen here in camera 1:
"Astounded. No one knows how the hole got there, but we do know one thing- After yesterday's mob invasion, Notch
must be after us." Said a City Official when walking away. In fact, 3 minutes ago, it was just revealed that the "resident" killed was a City Official. The dead body is still unidentified, but right now the city's closest guess is none other than
Carrot_Gal14, a top donor and Vice Mayor of Silver Birch City.
Security Camera No. 1 As seen here, a lovely young lady is falling into a hole covered by snow. She was almost instantly killed when she hit the ground after a 37 block drop. "We need security officers!" Cried one city official after hearing about the news. "You young fellows out there! Recruit now via /mail send Afro_Rick or post on the Silver Birch City Page!"
No doubt, Silver Birch City must have been cursed in some way.

Season's Greetings from the Silver Birch City Government!EXTRA:
Yesterday's paper was talking about a mob invasion. Afro_Rick has the story further here.
A Security guard was patrolling the streets last night, when he was brutally killed by mobs. He bowed 2 zombies and a spider but didn't notice the skeleton creeping up form behind. He was shot. This is what we managed to find in one of his %apdpdata%/.minecraft/Screenshots/ Folder when we got to the crime scene:
"
Are We under attack? I don't know," says a city official. "Just stay safe, we'll sort it out. Follow the curfew."_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Resident's Death: ConfirmedDecember 9

In our previous edition, a resident was caught on tape falling to her death. We have more here.
"We have confirmed that yes, it
was Carrot_Gal14, AKA Vice-Mayor of Silver Birch City. But what we didn't know, was that she had only lost 1 pixel in the fall, and medical researchers carefully replaced that small cube from pixel donors.
Vice-Mayor Carrot_Gal14 Posing for a picture "This was relief and everyone in the SB City Government is very happy that she's had a full recovery," says Mayor Afro_Rick. "We have fenced off the crime scene, which we ask no one to try and go into."
"There are a few suspects, but right now our closest guess is Herobrine," says Officer G. Olem with the Silver Birch Security.
"Please keep your eyes peeled and your ears open." New Updates in the City+S.B. Mail, mail system. Under construction. What it is, is that in the very near future, there will be a room with chests. Mailmen will take the things out of each resident's own private chest and place it in their mailbox which is situated in front of their plot/house.
+Mob Market VERY EXCITING GALLERY! This will be open to the public soon. What it is, it is like a gallery of a fake market with stands owned by mobs... I'll keep you in suspense and I'll keep it as a surprise for now

City UpdateDecember 11
th, 2013
By Afro_Rick
Hey guys! Recently, the Silver Birch City Council held a meeting and have made a few changes. First of all, the city is
relocating and will be relocated in the 1.7 world once it comes out- hopefully. And secondly- A small thing- "All residents who have been inactive for 2+weeks will be kicked from the town(Stripped of their rank in the city).
The reason of the relocation: Our Vice Mayor has said that she would be spending more time in the new world, and honestly, the Mayor isn't too good at making decisions on his own... But that's another story. Once again, Silver Birch City is officialy being relocated!
Unfortunately, due to this change, this means all builds in the City will have to be demolished/abandoned... Or they can be left there.
Thanks for your co-operation!

Change in name?December 12

By Afro_Rick
Earlier today, Mayor Afro_Rick stated: "We are thinking about changing the name of our city to OakVille and completely abandoning the name 'Silver Birch City'".
Do you agree? Vote on our city page!
UPDATE: The idea was turned down after a City Council Meeting. Poll topic:
Should the city kick inactive players?
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________
This is just a small thing. We here at The Silver Birch City Gazette would like to wish you a happy holiday and a merry Christmas! Stay safe!
