We are going to add a new server/world dedicated to playing rounds of a hardcore battle royale style game.
The rules will be pretty simple:
It's hardcore. You die, you are out. It will be whitelisted, meaning the initial group of players is all there is.
Griefing, PVP, traps, etc. all allowed. Players may work together, if they are brave, but teams cannot win. Chat, signs, etc. will still be G-rated, otherwise normal server rules will not apply.
Once the game starts, players may enter the world but for the first 2 days there will be no PVP. There will be a world border. After the two days, PVP will be enabled and every 12 hours the world border will contract.
Last player alive wins.
This is a new thing, any of these details may change in later rounds depending on how this first attempt goes.
If you'd like to get on the list for the first round, please respond here or contact me on discord, forum conversation, in-game, etc.
Vaults world and the Build and Survival worlds from the 1.12 server have been moved over.
Players cannot access them directly (other than the SlimeFarm and RCGrinder public warps).
If you still have items in vaults, this is your last chance to get them. Please contact a mod or admin as your old warps/homes will not work any more.
If you have build from the 1.12 server that was on Build, Build_Nether, Survival, Survival_Nether or Survival_the_end, and you want to move it to the current Build or Survival worlds, again place contact a mod or admin. The old warps/homes will not take you there, but we can find the location.
There is an important distinction to be made, in the new environment and with the plugin changes we have made, between claiming land and protecting land.
Claiming land is largely unchanged. Short version: put a marker (wall, fence, etc.) around it until you build on it. Don't claim more than you plan to use. Don't claim right next to someone else unless they are ok with it. The exception is around build spawn, where we encourage people to build close together.
Protecting your land/chests/whatever is done with the new Grief Prevention plugin (the golden shovel). There will be a wiki entry explaining this plugin further. In the meantime, if you have any questions ask. Yes, this also refers to claims, which may be confusing, but they are two different things.
This will be a running list of the recent changes here, with links to more detailed information as needed.
Public Warps available now: SlimeFarm, Grender, rcgrinder
Voting works again, and now gives bonus claim blocks in addition to the currency.
Creative, shops and spheres worlds are back.
Bottomless chest is back and all players have access to it. Default players should empty it out, and it will go back to being a donor perk at some point in the near future (probably a few weeks or so).
GriefPrevention (known by most as the "golden shovel" plugin) has replaced both LWC and Precious Stones. There will be a wiki entry on its use shortly.
The server moved to 1.13.2 on April 28 and that brought a lot of changes. Things are still in flux and a lot has changed. If you have any questions or comments feel free to leave them. If you have suggestions for things we can add/change as the server rounds into shape, please leave them below.
Some of the world backups from the end of last year are available for download on the Legacy Worlds wiki page.
These include:
Build8
Build8_Nether
Survival5
Survival5_Nether
Survival5_The_end
Vaults world will be phased out, to be replaced by Bottomless Chests
Vaults world is going to be phased out, probably sometime in the next few months. There is no timeline currently but there will be an announcement once one is set. We will NOT be deleting your items, or the world itself, but after the cutoff it will become fairly difficult to access them.
Donors now have access to a new plugin called Bottomless Chest. Click the link to see the wiki entry for more information.
The Project has officially started! Get in touch with Myself in game for an invite to the warp!

Hey Everyone! Get ready for another public farm building project! (Scroll to the bottom to see how YOU can get involved today!)
With the success of the slime farm in mind, we've decided to start the planning process for the public blaze farm. This is a project that everyone is welcome and encouraged to get involved with....
We have announcement to make regarding a change to our rules on the topic of banned players and their items. The rules wiki has been updated to reflect this change, and it is posted below for your viewing.
This topic has been brought to the Admin team's attention and we have discussed this at great length. While this effects a small percentage of our member base, it's important to bring this to light due to the nature of the issue.
Previously, when someone asked about a permanently banned player's items, we may have given some of it away. As a result of discussion, we will no longer continue this practice.
Permanently Banned Players Items
If a member has been permanently banned from our community, regardless of player level, VIP etc. or otherwise, ALL items belonging to this member including chests in the worlds and if they have a vault will be deleted immediately.
NOTE: Do not ask for any of these items, they will not be given out...
In the even of server downtime, this is where I will communicate what's going on. If you wish to be informed, go ahead and "like" the page so that you can receive future updates and notifications.
I really don't like using Facebook for this, but I think it's really the best method outside of the forum we can use. If someone has a better (family-friendly!) suggestion, let me know.
Edit: We also have a Discord server available now as well. One can either download the app (computer and/or mobile) or simply use it from their web browser: http://discord.me/mccc
