The portal races

The portal races are unofficial competitions between Alex and Mario, where they try to make a nether portal first. There have been races in s2, s4, and Alexandras smp. So far, Alex has won all of them.

Origin: While the first portal race appeared in s2, their origin dates back to s1. One day, while Alex and Mario were in a cave, Mario wanted to make a nether portal, so he did. However, he made it in a really inefficient method, so Alex stated that he is “bad at making nether portals. So the next time a nether portal has to be made, Alex didn’t Mario make it, and made it by himself. Skipping to s2, when they had to make a nether portal, both Mario and Alex wanted to make one. Conviniently, there were two lava pools close to the base, so they both made a nether portal, but Alex made it first. This process also happened in s4 and I’m Alexandras smp.

Fun fact: The competition is “unofficial”, because Mario never agreed, or even knew about the fact that Alex gave these races a name.
