The Search For Minecraft's Long-Lost First Account

[@ashhermosillo1384]

Imagine just trying out a random game back in 2009 and then 14 years later being tracked down because of this

[@_Killkor]

I cannot even begin to imagine being one of the first 100 Minecraft accounts ever registered. Imagine doing something completely random and half-serious on some obscure website that you and only a handful of other people saw potential in, and fast-forward 10 years, that site becomes one of the biggest websites on the world, rivaling the likes of Wikipedia or KZbin. Honestly, I couldn't be able to sleep on that. It's bigger luck than winning a national lottery.

[@CR7GOATofFootball]

@@_Killkor not 20 years. More like 10 but yeah...

[@_Killkor]

@@CR7GOATofFootball I know. I thought 20 years would sound more impactful than 10. Well, if we were to be precise, since May 2009 it's been 12 years. But you're right, 12 is nowhere close to 20, so I'll fix it.

From a developer point of view the first account would likely have been made before the feature was complete so the person developing it could test and iron out any issues. Your best option would be to reach out and find the developer who created the account feature and you would have a very high chance that he would be the first person to create an account for the sake of debugging.

[@namAehT]

First account on a webapp I built at work was "dicks", but it was deleted before it was made live. The first account was likely a test account made by a dev, but likely not their personal account. There's also a good chance that a backup was made before the 2015 purge, the best way would be to tweet at Jeb and Notch. Same with the pack.png project, it'll probably at least provide a lead.

Second of all, I didn't remember exactly what the numbers were, but I sure can tell you, the ROBLOX account wasn't the first Roblox account!

I think we should definitely ask Notch. Given that he kinda created the game he probably has at least a backup or something. EDIT: OK I came back next week and there's 18 replies... First of all we have no idea if Notch is even a "bad person", he's clearly the type of person who just kinda says whatever he feels like and he seems to contradict his own beliefs a lot. Besides that's not even very relevant. Second, when you are developing something, and especially if you are the only developer, you test stuff out a lot and often that involves pretending to be a user, interacting and creating accounts and whatnot _before_ release. Therefore, Notch definitely owns the first account(s) so there's your answer. If you want to figure out the first account that isn't owned by Notch, you're probably gonna have to ask the man himself.

[@Aviertje]

One argument you have not mentioned in your video that would support Notch being the first user is the fact that early Minecraft development was obviously amateur hour where all functionality was cobbled together by a single individual. This means that the chance of Notch having a separate development database server for his user database functionality is very small. And because no sane programmer would post a 'you can register now' announcement without at least testing the most naive code path (=account successfully created), you can assume that Notch indeed created the very first user. Obviously, there is a chance he created several (test1, test2, etc) and deleted them later... but I think it is even more likely he just bashed his own name in there. After all, any system with multiple users needs an administrator, and while having an admin makes no sense for the game part, for the database part it does. Since 'admin' makes no sense to have as a user for that system at that point, it makes sense he'd just want to safeguard his own name instead. So IMHO, it is highly likely 'Notch' is the id0 Minecraft account.

He doesnt own the game no more, he fucked up and sold it

[@Kentucky_Caveman]

@@everythingpony He didn't fuck up at all, he became a billionaire with the signing of some papers. Huge w for him, people were hating on him at the time anyways, who wouldn't sell it to get away from that and make some cash. Now if your talking about Minecraft as a whole, sure it got fucked up.

[@superrooster18]

@@Kentucky_Caveman not really. It’s doing way better than it would have if notch still had it because Microsoft is willing to fund it. The only bad update was probably the combat update, which they are currently trying to fix.

[@Gamersaurus]

I was one of the first ever Minecraft players! I started June of 2009, and I have not played since July or August 2009. I still have the original email from creating my account, and an email from when my account was hacked/purged a few years later in Feb 2015 :( I found Minecraft through a friend, who may have very well been one of these forum posters you mentioned in this video! I've reached out to Mojang support but so far it have proved useless in recovering my account. F I can answer questions from those first few months of Minecraft's public release if anyone has any :)

[@SallyDRG]

I still own my minecraft account from june 2009 :)

[@jack---]

if you didnt play after august 2009 you never paid for an account. those so called non-premium accounts were deleted on february 4th 2015, that may be why

[@Gamersaurus]

@@jack--- I remember there was a $20 option for life time membership/premium or whatever they called it when I created my account. I actually have an email from feb 10th 2015 that some requested to change my password. I’m guessing they some how got my account then.

[@jack---]

Wow really great video. This must have taken so long to make, thank you for all the effort that went into research and editing :DD

[@rijaja]

To all the people arguing why Notch's account is most likely the first (and I believe you on that), if it is the case, that doesn't really count as an answer. What we want to know is who was the first actual player, this being anyone who isn't Notch, doesn't work with him, and doesn't know him IRL.

[@HappyPlaysWasTaken]

the first username was "eatwhitefish"" found by MCBYT

[@EvsUnderscore]

Using some extremely old deleted/archived posts from the day Minecraft was released, I think some people have already found the first ever people who played Minecraft. Those players’s IGNs being dock, fartron, and Jrsquee. I know these aren’t the first ever accounts, I just thought it would be interesting to comment on this video about the potentially the first people to play Minecraft.

[@EvsUnderscore]

Let me just say that I don’t know how these were found at all, I think someone somehow got access to deleted posts by notch, one of them probably mentioning these names.

[@DevilSama_]

The oldest account is most probably the test account which was used in testing if the account making feature was working or not

[@bsharpmajorscale]

What was the Flash game that didn't load? If it's downloadable, there's that one desktop Flash game player that might play it.

[@magmacube8689]

Flash is dead, Google stopped supporting it, so it wont work even if you have the program. It could've been saved if it was brought to the refuge, but I highly doubt anyone remembered its existence. Most games were saved, most were not.

[@bsharpmajorscale]

@@magmacube8689 No, I mean the stand-alone Flash game player. Surely someone downloaded it??

@@magmacube8689 what is this misimformation. How do you not know about flashpoint, newgrounds player, old versions of the flash player exe, modifying flash player and using an open source browser and a bunch of other soulutions.

[@ghost_ship_supreme]

It was me. I’m the second guy to play the game. My name is herobrine. But no seriously, I remember playing Minecraft in the browser. It was called Minecraft classic or something back then. I got the premium version of the game for something like $12 or less! Now all these years later I also got bedrock for free. Lol. Benefits of supporting early I guess.

[@2goodfortwo204]

the editing is hilarious, i love it

[@BlankRequest]

i disagree, the chances of someone knowing they have the oldest account are like 0
