This Monday is Memorial Day so we wanted to pay special tribute to our of the veterans who play with us on the server, and to also thank all of the brave men and women who have given their lives for our country. Thank you.

While you’re out enjoying this long weekend with friends and family, remember to take a moment to appreciate the people who continue to fight for our freedoms.

The holiday areas are open on both servers and as usual we have some goodies for you.

Mardi Gras 2016

Posted in Holidays | Leave a comment

Happy Fat Tuesday and Mardi Gras!!!

We’ve never celebrated Mardi Gras on the servers before, but thanks to the suggestion from our spicy admin straight from the bayou, JP_Zilla we can’t image image why we wouldn’t!

So come on down to the UK Holiday area for our First Annual Mardi Gras parade! Floats have been set up for decorating by the community to kick off the celebration. While we encourage teams, you can build one solo. Only 15 spots so hurry in and claim yours! All we ask is no digging, build as high as you want (the sky is the limit), and you can build on top of the border, but not beyond it.
Please have floats completed by Friday for everyone to check them out!

Enjoy some New Orleans inspired foods and traditonal Mardi Gras goodies with our Custom Villagers. Be sure to bring some sticks, cobble, and emerald blocks for trading.

Check out some of the Floats!

Halloween 2015: Haunted Maze & Trick or Treat Event

Posted in Game Nights, Holidays, Special Events | Leave a comment

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
4) Prepare to be scared and wary of false starts

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.

Easter “Egg” Hunt 2015

Posted in Holidays, Special Events | Leave a comment

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

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 🙂

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.
