Pinewood Builders

Pinewood Builders (formerly known as Pinewood Labs) is a British-based building community with ventures in aerospace, mining, weaponry, physics research, and much more.

It is currently Roblox's second largest science-themed group, standing at about 89,000 members, just behind Innovation Inc.

Founded in 2008 by Diddleshot, (as a group in 2009) Pinewood is one of Roblox's oldest existing groups in general. The group is recognized as a brand wherein its members tend to make games with the Pinewood logo and brand on it, drawing inspiration from Pinewood's official games. Pinewood also had a booth at BLOXcon Chicago in 2013, and served as the origins of many famous Roblox developers, such as alexnewtron, Zephyred, madattak, and Rukiryo.

History
The historical timeline section of this page was contributed by former Pinewood executives ranging from 2013 to 2018, as well as by conversations with Diddleshot himself over Skype and Discord.

May - November

 * Diddleshot and a group of friends founded Pinewood as Pinewood Labs.
 * The earliest known games that were built were the Dog Food Factory in September and the ROBLOX Powerplant in October. The power plant was considered to be one of the first power stations ever built on ROBLOX, while the Dog Food Factory was replaced by the classic game Train Demolition.

November - December

 * As a remake of the closed Dog Food Factory, the Bread Factory was open to the public; a large bread-making production line which sole purpose is feeding a giant noob named Bob. It became known as one of the last existing "feed the noob" places to exist on the Roblox website, as the others have died out.
 * Later in December, Pinewood's first headquarters, named Pinewood Labs (2008), a medium-sized building in a similar setting and style to the ROBLOX Powerplant, was opened.
 * This very first Pinewood Headquarters building was made into a 'ruined' state for Diddleshot's CRUSH A BUILDING! game.

January

 * Pinewood Labs was renamed Pinewood Builders, and it was founded as a group with the latter name using the then-newly introduced Groups feature.

February

 * The Pinewood Research Facility (2009) was built. It was a three to four story, white building located in a large, relatively hidden compound. A tunnel was reportedly located past a checkpoint which at this time, was a mystery to where it led to.
 * A second headquarters was built. It was a much larger compound and was relatively hidden. Not much information is available regarding it at the moment.

Unknown date

 * Several facilities were introduced throughout 2009, such as the ROBLOX Laundromat, Pinewood Computer Core, Pinewood Space Station, (2009), the Mega Miners game, and the launch center of Pinewood's Space Shuttle Advantage.

2010

 * Vice President RedDwarfIV introduces Pinewood Metro, an automated train system, which is used at the Pinewood Space Station.
 * RedDwarfIV adds several updates to Space Shuttle Advantage.

2011

 * The Pinewood Builders Security Team was established to protect facilities, although its role was merely roleplay at this time.

May

 * The Jet Engine Test place was built, where it would test the effects of aerodynamics, and whether it was safe to place Robloxians within 10 feet of a jet turbine. Many injuries have been reported in the conduction of this test.

June

 * The new Pinewood Headquarters was opened, featuring a 12-story office building located on an artificial island in the vicinity of Hong Kong.
 * Through an actual private meeting with Diddleshot at Pinewood HQ, MRDAFG and Legodude88 founded the Pinewood Intelligence Agency, a top-secret agency responsible for managing Pinewood's internal affairs.

February

 * Diddleshot released a major update to the Computer Core, allowing the reactor core to initiate a meltdown. This would give the Security Team a major role in protecting the core from blowing up.
 * Throughout 2013 from this point, Pinewood, its facilities, and its divisions began to enter a modernization phase.

August

 * Kyodo, who rose to the ranks as an advisory council member, joins the Pinewood Intelligence Agency.

Unknown

 * At some point, MRDAFG resigned from Pinewood.
 * Vice President Catpwnszer was allegedly fired for an attempted power struggle with regards to the PIA.
 * Kyodo's account was hijacked, causing him to leave, but upon regaining his account, he did not rejoin Pinewood due to the aftermentioned internal affairs issue.
 * The rivalry between the fanbase of Pinewood Computer Core and Innovation Research Labs begin to rise as the latter rises in popularity, whereas the fanbases on both sides throw petty arguments implying one copied another.

July

 * Due to Innovation's sudden rise in popularity as a result of its blog recognition, Pinewood began to drop in popularity, losing the claim of being the largest building group at that time. This called the management to step up in activity after a while of Pinewood management not paying attention to Innovation Inc's competitiveness.

November

 * An overhaul of the screens and the addition of several aesthetics have been added to the PBCC upon the suggestion and contribution of RobloxGuy6403.
 * The Pinewood Research Facility reopened after a full renovation of its exterior and interior design. It was now located in the Sahara Desert, with the majority of the facility located underground, and is now directly connected to the Pinewood Computer Core via elevator shafts.
 * However, updates would remain stagnant not only for the PBRF but for most of the Pinewood facilities, as Diddleshot himself said he lacked time to do so.

December

 * Construction on the Pinewood Oil Platform begins by a team of then-unofficial Pinewood developers from JKR Productions, led by Building Advisory Council member KelvinBlues1. It became an official game through the support of Director SigmaTech and JKR Productions CEO RobloxGuy6403.
 * The PIA opens up the PIA HQ for a Christmas party for the first time.

January

 * Director SigmaTech announces the Pinewood Oil Platform to the public using his newly created Pinewood website, made through Wix. The website relied on ads to pay for its domain.

February

 * Director Woofmacht founded the Pinewood Broadcasting Corporation, with RobbyRBLX as the first PBC President. This was in response to the en masse-founding of the Pinewood News Network by Chuba7, which Woof saw as an attempt by Chuba to gain power within the administration.
 * This led to a rivalry between the two media groups, in which PBC became dominant as the more active media group.
 * Upon observing several roleplay firefighters performing trainings and patrols at the Pinewood Computer Core, an unofficial group named Pinewood EMERGENCY was merged into Diddleshot's newly created Pinewood Emergency Team.
 * P.E.T. would remain mostly disorganized due to a lack of attention given to it, resulting in its own supervisors and members creating unofficial subgroups that would leave P.E.T. in leadership squabbles.

March

 * The original deadline for the Pinewood Oil Platform missed its first deadline of March 31, 2015.

April

 * FlightVector was appointed to the Board of Directors on April 3.

April 6 events

 * After a misunderstanding between Diddleshot and Vice President Legodude88, Lego was reportedly fired from his position on April 6 due to an internal conflict, prompting the resignation of the entire PIA and most of the PBV, including Woofmacht and FlightVector. As a result, the PIA and PBST were left in a state of anarchy.
 * In the confusion, the developers of the Pinewood Oil Platform decided to temporarily halt the project.
 * The Pinewood Intelligence Agency and Pinewood Security were reinstated with new replacements following April 6, with ShatteredGuest assuming the role of Head of Security and Head of Intelligence.
 * To compensate for the lack of a permanent training facility for PBST, Shattered held security trainings at the Pinewood Research Facility, with "field trips" to Pinewood Computer Core and Pinewood Headquarters.

Post-April 6

 * Several PBST mid-ranks established a Skype chat group, including more members over time. Trainers and other Pinewood executives would join the said group in the next few months to come.

May

 * Diddleshot joined the Skype group, initiating him to create his own, official Pinewood Skype group.
 * ShatteredGuest resigned from his post following a misunderstanding between him and Diddleshot at a security training, apparently due to Diddleshot hosting parties after his trainings, which Shattered found to be unprofessional.
 * DeathPossession was appointed Head of Security and Head of Intelligence in replacement.

November

 * Legodude88 and some of the other executives who left on April 6th returned to Pinewood.

December

 * DeathPossession and Momolivia were appointed to the Vice President position, much to the disgust of Lego and his fellow former executives, who left again as a result.
 * As part of her duties, VP Momolivia imposes managerial policies to keep the directors active within Pinewood, such as activity checks. This results in constant fighting between Director SigmaTech and Momo herself.
 * The Pinewood Oil Platform opened on December 23, 2015.
 * largeTitanic2, a member who originated from a batch of PBST trained directly after the events of April 6, BrickDynamics, a former Innovation Intelligence Agency member, RobloxGuy6403, a developer of the Pinewood Oil Platform, and Rockocco, a PBC editor-in-chief, are appointed to the Board of Directors.

October

 * The PIA constructed a new headquarters and began work on new training facility concepts for PBST.

November 6 events

 * Following several attempts by the Security Commissioner to control his powers, Head of Security and Head of Intelligence largeTitanic2 resigned from Pinewood Builders on November 6. Several members of the PIA joined him in a renegade, resulting in the group Omicron Incorporated.
 * The renegade of PIA members also took the Pinewood Discord server with them, prompting the creation of a new Pinewood Discord server.
 * As a result of the second staff purge, which resulted in little to no moderators being available to handle exploit issues at Pinewood games, Pinewood's member count began to drop by the hundreds.

 * This promptly resulted in the termination of almost the entire administration by Diddleshot. Almost all were gone from the current Board of Directors, minus Cajess, all members of the development team, the Security Overseer, and both Vice Presidents.
