Enderchest Goodies!

Just for fun I've placed some goodies, including some HV Solar Arrays and Red Matter in a randomly coloured enderchest, the first person to figure out the the combination (there are 4096 possibilities) can keep the contents!


I will keep checking the chest and post updates as well as clues!

Clue: 20th June - No white! (3375 possibilities remaining)
Clue: 21st June - No yellow! (2744 possibilities remaining)
Clue: 22nd June - No magenta! (2197 possibilities remaining)
Clue: 23rd June - No brown! (1728 possibilities remaining)
Clue: 24th June - No light gray! (1331 possibilities remaining)

As of... 22:00, 24th June ...the items have been found! Congratulations freaksdesign! 


The code was... Orange - Pink - Cyan

Somehow no-one noticed that I kept changing the spleef arena floor to these colours... 

New Way Of Connecting To The Server

You can now connect to the server using:

instead of using the IP address, if you want to!

UPDATE: 21:00 - Minecraft logins are back to normal!

Player Portals Are Ready!

It took longer than we had thought to get everything configured and tested but player portals are finally ready to be put to use!

Some important info you'll need to know if you want to apply for a Player Portal...

You need to be a minimum of Member+ rank to request a player portal.

There are 16 Player Portals, one for each colour of wool, you may request a specific colour if it still available.

Portal requests should be made to DiggyWig or DigginChickin, we may take a couple of days to decide and ask for feedback from Helpers before making a decision.

Due to the limited number of portals the build quality of the destination should be high and of genuine use to players, either providing some sort of function or just as an impressive place for players to visit and hang out.

Portals are linked to ranks when setup, and can either be set to 'New Builder' (allow everyone) or set to Member, Member+ or VIP to only allow that rank or higher to use the portal.

A portal will need to be built at the destination and will require a space 6 blocks wide, 3 blocks deep and 4 blocks high, the portal will not be modifiable by the destination owner.

Signs with the destination name and minimum rank will be placed on the portal in the hub for you.

Similar rules apply as for a market stall, if the player owning the destination doesn't log in for more than 14 days or the destination becomes unsuitable for any reason then the portal will be closed and made available to other players (let us know if you're going on holiday etc and we'll make sure it doesn't get closed!).

Main World Border Is Up!

The main world border has been turned on, if we did miss anyone who has a build outside of 8000m then please contact DiggyWig or DigginChickin asap and we'll sort something out for you!

Size Limit For Main World

We have decided on a size limit of 8000m for the main world, one of the players outside of this area is already in the process of moving and signs have been placed on the other two buildings as the players have not been online for a few days.

The border will be put in place tonight (around 9pm UK time) to make sure no more buildings pop up out outside the border region, the players with homes still outside the border can be given temporary permission to bypass the border to collect items from their areas, however this permission resets when the server restarts and will have to be re-requested afterwards.

On Friday at around 9am UK Time all chunks outside of the 8000m boundary will be automatically deleted and items remaining outside this distance will no longer be recoverable!

New chunks within the 8000m boundary will also begin to generate at this time at a rate of 20 chunks per second. As we expect over 70000 chunks to be generated in total this may cause a little lag for around an hour if the server is busy, but will mean that new chunks will never need to be generated again when players explore the world!
