Graalians Minecraft Anniversary!
 
A couple of weeks ago marked the anniversary of the Graalians Minecraft Server. There sure has been a lot going on over the past year, and Minecraft itself has evolved into something much greater than what we started with. In the spirit of this, we have decorated the world with a carnival-style theme and have decided to host a series of both familiar events from Graalians history and some new ones. This time there will be actual prizes to win!

Opening Party
Friday, October 5th @ 7:30 PM EST
  • We will host some rounds of CTF to celebrate.
  • There will be wool giveaways on the night to prepare you for the pixel art contest.
  • Other surprises are planned!

Apocalypse
Saturday, October 13 @ 7:30 PM EST
  • There will be a zombie invasion in Graal City!
  • Do you have what it takes to be the last man standing?
  • The winners of each round will receive an end portal for their home.
  • You do not need to RSVP.

The Hunger Games
Saturday, October 20 @ 7:30 PM EST
  • Because of the high turn-out of previous Hunger Games events in the Graalians Community, we've decided to host another round of this classic fight to the death. May the odds be ever in your favor.
  • The last man/woman standing will receive a $15 gift card to purchase thing(s) from Jinx.com!
  • There will be a practice round at 5:00 if you wish to join us.

Closing Night of Events
Saturday, October 27 @ 7:00 PM EST
  • We'll start out the night with a round of Boat Wars.
  • All pirates will receive free sponges, and the winner a chest from Davy Jonus's locker.
  • Additionally, we will host a diamond lottery. Each diamond surrendered will count as an entry. The winner will receive twice the total number of diamonds entered.
  • Lastly, we will host the long-anticipated Spleef Tournament. Spleef has always been a part of our server's history and we are finally hosting an organized event to quench the community's thirst for competition. (If you haven't played Spleef on a Minecraft server before, click here for the basic idea.)
  • The ultimate champion will receive a $15 gift card to purchase thing(s) from Jinx.com!

Wool Art Contest and 25x25x25 Contest
Both contests will conclude by 6:00 AM on Sunday, October 28
  • Members of the 1.8 server may remember the wool art contest that was held around the beginning of the server. As it was part of our history, we're bringing it back this month, hoping to see some unique and creative art designs.
  • A new event that we are going to introduce is the 25x25x25 contest. Basically, design the most creative and unique house in a 25x25x25 area.
  • Both events will be judged by operators on the server.
  • The winner of each event will receive a $15 gift card to purchase thing(s) from Jinx.com!

The only event that we ask you to RSVP for is the Spleef Tournament so that we may prepare rosters. If you are not yet whitelisted on the server, please feel free to post your account here and an operator will add you. We'd love to have you on the server! :)

Those who have been banned for a minor reason lately, you can contact an operator and see about being unbanned for these events. Serious offenders will not be pardoned. Do not read this thread with the intention of cheating or disrupting the events. Such actions will not be tolerated, and at the end of the day it is your own loss. For everybody else, we hope to see you there!

Buneary 10-02-2012 02:17 AM

Hmm. Describe the hunger games. Teams? Premade map? Randomized chests?

I hope you make use of command blocks.

123tepig 10-02-2012 02:41 AM

>_> The server wont let me in.

Buneary 10-02-2012 02:42 AM

Well last year is was made by some people. You could make teams. The chests were filled by the gamemaker(the guy that calls the shots of what happens like.... an enderdragon).

HappyCat123 10-02-2012 02:48 AM

Building contest :D

123tepig 10-02-2012 02:49 AM

iHawk 10-02-2012 06:18 AM

O.o ooh.

I would recommend SurvivalGames plugin for the hunger games. Don't use HungerArena
:p

Maxy 10-02-2012 07:07 AM

Um.... No. That's from the 1.4 snapshots.

I thought so, I haven't been caught up on the snapshots recently, all I know is there's potatoes and a new lighting engine. That's all I care about.

The map has been in the works since a couple weeks ago. It's rigged with all sorts of, erm, catastrophes for me to launch at people. It won't actually be rigged against certain people like it is in the actual thing. I'll basically send out disasters that affect everybody throughout the game.

There won't be teams. I'll be watching for people who are teamed up and try to split them up using some pre-rigged stuff at every corner of the arena.

There will only be chests in the cornucopia. The initial goods won't really make you invincible, but they might give you a little but of a run. Eventually there will be a feast which will have the good items. I don't think I'm going to hide chests throughout the arena.

I don't expect to use command blocks because they're not out yet. Notch or somebody tweeted that the 1.4 update would come out on or after Halloween so we'll see.
