Lost Items After Using Time Machine

Hey staff,

I recently used the time machine trinket, and after using it, I realized my inventory was missing some important items. At first, I didn’t notice right away, and I panicked, so I didn’t use the /back command until after, but it was already too late.

To be honest, I wasn’t too sure how the time machine trinket worked. I just shifted right-clicked and clicked somewhere else without really knowing what I was doing. After that, my items were gone.

Here’s what I lost:

  • 2 God Pickaxes
  • 1 God Sword
  • Mending Wings (Elytra)
  • God Helmet
  • God Chestplate

If possible, I’d appreciate a refund this time. I’ve definitely learned my lesson, and next time I’ll make sure to ask before using trinkets I don’t fully understand.

Thanks so much for your time and help!

I’m gonna rule this as fair loss. The trinket lore says that you’ll be teleported without your belongings:


When you use the trinket, you also get this message in chat:

The items are dropped on the ground at the original position. They can be recovered by just running /back, or going there through other means. The fact that they’re gone means they despawned or someone else took them.

If someone else wants to try recover the items, there’s no custom log for when the trinket is used, nor are there logs for the items dropped, so it won’t be an easy task.

Thanks for replying I agree it was a fair loss but as I said in the heat of the moment I panicked and brain didn’t work and didn’t read what was written and lost all my valuables the things I lost took me forever to make so please I’m hoping to get refunded just this time.

Ast has (essentially) left it to me to decide whether to return the items or not.

Assuming the only item that had mending on it was the Elytra then this seems like more work than it’s worth considering it’d take a couple hours of log searching to find the items and prove what happened considering there is no special logs for it…
