So, I was on a private 1.7.1 server, completely alone. I was in my house, and I took some iron ingots and a few sticks out of some chests to craft an iron sword downstairs. I did so, but then my internet briefly crashed, and the server timed out. The internet when back up in a couple seconds, and then I logged back onto the server...
I had all my previous items, except the iron sword wasn't crafted yet, but I still had my sticks and ingots. I turned around...and there, right over the crafting table, was me...or my "doppelganger" as I'll call it. My doppelganger wasn't moving, only staring in the wrong direction.
So, I punched my doppelganger to death, and then it died. I was told "DavidHScott left the game" in the chat, and it(?) dropped an iron sword.
To me, it felt like borderline creepypasta material, but how exactly did this happen? Did the server somehow make two copies by me by accident? How did this happen?
