New Minigames: RageMaze & RageMazeVS

Two new minigames are now enabled in GameWorld, both based in the new maze:

RageMaze - Single player, get to the end (top of the flag).

RageMazeVS - 2-8 player, first player to the end (top of the flag) wins.

Both games can run simultaneously in the maze and as PvP is on all players can interact regardless of whether they are playing in the single or multiplayer version!

The first player to submit a screenshot of themselves climbing the flagpole at the end will receive a special prize!

Can you get to the end without raging?

Votifier Issue

Apologies for the restarts earlier we had an issue with Votifier, I have put a workaround in place to stop it happening again until I can get a permanent fix in place.

Offline voting will not be possible for now, you must be online to receive the rewards.

Item Limits - Important

As some of you have noticed the item limiter has not been functioning for a while, please remember however that the limits still apply even if they are not automatically enforced!

The bug is being worked on but in the mean time I would ask that players do not intentionally go over the limits, which can be found here if you need a reminder...

http://diggyminecraft.blogspot.co.uk/p/banned-item-list.html

Many of you probably remember the issues we had before the limiter and my worry is that at the present rate of issues occurring because of too many items (particularly EE blocks) the current world will not last more than a few months even if the limiter is working again soon so until the plugin dev can fix the issue limits will be enforced manually to minimise damage. 

What this means is that if a region is found to have an excessive number of limited items placed all of that block type will be cleared from the region and will not be returned to the player, if the items in question contain other items then those will also be lost, warnings will also be given in most cases.

If you know you are over one or more of these limits then please remove the excess items asap, if you have a confirmed 'lag-spot' near or in your region as a result of placing too many items such as MK3 Collectors this is likely to be unfixable and there is a chance that the chunk will regenerate during a future maintenance.

If you know of a player / area that should be looked into in this regard then please open a modreq, send a /mail to a member of staff or e-mail me so we can try and limit the long-term damage, thanks.

Testing Over The Weekend

Some testing is being carried out between now and Monday which might result in some unscheduled downtime / restarts, we'll try to keep it minimal!

Forcefield Ban

Just to confirm that forcefields are now blocked at mod (MFFS) level.

This basically means that if you try to craft an item that is only usable with forcefields (MF Device, MFFS Card Etc) it will be handled like a banned item, this is just to make sure that players (especially new ones) don't waste materials on unusable items because they didn't realise that forcefields were banned.

New Minigame: Castles

A new game for 2-6 players has been added to GameWorld, Castles!

The rules are simple, try and knock everyone else into the lava whilst trying not fall in yourself, pvp is on but no weapons or armour are given, last player standing wins.

The game was built by Tatankore based on a suggestion from niki2008.

Enjoy!
