It’s high past time for another Steam Run don’t ya think? After you’ve stuffed yourself silly for Thanksgiving and then emptied your wallet on Black Friday, we think it would do you good to sit back, relax, and feverishly break blocks looking for chests with free games in them. Right? Good times.

Steam Run January 2017

Once again, we have slated over 60 games to find in a custom built zone (no wandering out of the prize area inadvertently anymore) as well as our standard loot: elytra, shulker boxes, power tools and the rest of the good stuff. Maybe this year I’ll actually note down the coords so I can have a definitive answer for you as to whether all the games have been found. 😉 And for the first time, we’ll be having this little picnic on Nunu.

We’ll be using this opportunity (since the Steam Run is a popular event) to make a couple of major announcements as well, so if you want to know what the future of Some Awesome has in store for it, be in the Discord voice channel when we play (or at least be watching on Twitch since we’ll be streaming it too).

We’ll be starting at 7pm EST as this seems like a good enough time for everyone to join, from the west coast to our UK people and everyone in between. If you’re on at that time, be prepared to participate, since we’ll be teleporting everyone on the server in one fell swoop (no need for a meeting place) right before the start.

If you have any questions, feel free to throw them in the thread where we post the link to this article.

See you guys soon!

Happy Halloween everyone! If you’re new to the server there’s lots for you to see during Halloween!

First, stop by the holiday area for your holiday collector’s map made by our super awesome Crazy Map Ladies, and grab some spooky new holiday banners.

Then go visit Jack Skellington in the Costume Shop where you can purchase special Halloween masks to dress up for the holiday!

Next, head inside the Great Pumpkin (Charlie Brown) for the command blocks to visit our special Halloween areas.

We’ll begin with our Halloween maze run. Get through it’s multiple complicated levels and win yourself a zombie horse.

 

Then go out and Trick-or-Treat in the surrounding neighborhood. Be careful though, not all the neighbors are nice! Be sure to pack yourself some food, and weapons.


Be sure to stop by and check out our Nightmare Before Christmas themed community build. If you have a contribution feel free to add it!

We will host two events to celebrate Halloween this year. Wednesday, Nov 1st at 9pm EDT and a repeat event on Sunday, Nov 5th at 12pm EDT. You are able to win two zombie horses if you attend both events. Join our app for reminders about the event.

See you then, and have a happy and safe Halloween!

Come and join us on NuNu to celebrate Halloween with Trick or Treating and a maze game night! There will be a CB from the holiday area near CT.

We will have two event runs for the maze with prizes:

Saturday, October 24th at 9 PM EST/8 PM CST
Sunday, October 25th at 10 AM EST/9 AM CST

Prizes will only be given to those who are brave enough to enter and FINISH the Halloween maze during the event time. After that, if you are willing to enter the belly of the beast on your own, do at your own risk (and with no prize).

For those who finish the maze during the event, you may have your choice of either a Zombie Horse or a Skeleton Horse!

Rules:
1) No jetpacks
2) No mini maps (mods) or maze help of any kind
3) Enter at your own risk! There will be beds available to set your bed spawn

For those that are not brave, there is also a mob museum to check out. Come one, come all and be sure to be dressed in your Halloween costume!

Don’t forget to bring plenty of sticks and emeralds for Trick or Treat villager trading.

Come join us as we open the Wither Summoning Room on the NuNu server!

We will have supplies available for all who attend to summon their own Wither Boss & combat it for the chance to get your Nether Star drop!

Start gearing up & prepare your XP for the chance of death. 😉 Make sure all your achievements are unlocked & caught up to get the Wither Achievements: The Beginning? & The Beginning.

**Reminder: if you are making beacons afterward, please keep them spaced to no less than 100 blocks apart & preferably only 1 active beacon per player.

Holidays are a great excuse for server shenanigans and all around good fun so it’s a good thing that Easter is upon us!

2015-04-04_09.54.11

 

We will be celebrating Easter with a very special “egg” hunt in the Nu Nu Market. Why do I keep putting the word egg in quotes you may ask? Well these are no ordinary eggs. Last year we used spawn eggs, but with mob griefing turned on for Nu Nu, we figured that would be most disastrous so don’t bother looking for those, there are none 🙂

2015-04-04_09.57.43

If you were here for last year’s egg hunt you may remember that we hid player heads around for you to find and collect. We will be doing the same this year. We’ve also included some special ones as well.

So join us, Saturday April 4, 2015 at 6:00pm EST for this holiday event.

PLEASE NOTE: We will need to close the server at 5:30pm EST in order for the admins to hide the eggs and make sure we have everything ready to go.
