    Happy Holidays everybody! As you know, the Admin team is always trying to figure out what the next server is going to be. We decided to do something special for the holiday season - give you 4 new servers (temporarily).

    Over the course of the next month we will be putting up servers for 1 week at a time. After gathering stats and player opinion we should know which of the four servers will work best as our next new server(s). We hope this method will work out well for us. It would give us a way to test a handful of packs and see what the community responds to.

    So get out there, test these servers, and let us know which you prefer.


    Servers


    Pack: Vanilla 1.16.4
    Dates: Sunday, Dec 20th 9am CET to Dec 27th
    vanilla116.mym.li
    Pack Info The latest playable version of our favorite game - 1.1.6.4. Many changes and updates. We have a lot of options for vanilla we can implement if this is what the players want.

    Notable Plugins: Better Sleeping, Minepacks, Player Kits, Random Teleport, Silk Spawners


    Pack: AntiMatter Chemistry
    Dates: Sunday, Dec 27th 9am CET to Jan 3rd
    antimatter.mym.li
    Pack Info Antimatter Chemistry is a questing/progression pack inspired by Anti-Material Energy (1.7.10) by Parcel31u. You find yourself stranded in the Antimatter dimension with nothing but some basic gear, a chemistry set, and the hopes of returning back to your home.


    Pack: Vanilla Skyblock 1.16.4
    Dates: Sunday, Jan 3rd 9am CET to Jan 10th
    vanillasky116.mym.li
    Pack Info Vanilla 1.16.4 running the BentoBox skyblock plugin and various addons like challenges, likes, etc.


    Pack: RLCraft
    Dates: Sunday, Jan 10th 9am CET to Jan 17th
    rlcraft.mym.li
    Pack Info RLCraft, the RL standing for Real Life or Realism and is a take on another mod I made for Unreal called RLCoop that generally has a similar goal, is my interpretation of what I've always wanted in Minecraft when it comes to pure survival, adventuring and RPG, and immersion. I hand selected many mods and individually tweaked each and every one to fit the exact play-style I was looking for, making sure they all worked fluidly with each other, adding my own custom scripts for various changes to vanilla behavior, etc.


    Notes

    Notes We've provided some support to help you make quick progress in the week each server is online.
    -Starter kits will be provided.
    -Other kits may be made available if we see a need.
    -Players will have access to 10 homepoints.
    -Warps at key locations/dimensions.


    Warning

    Warning These servers are not setup for the long term. There is no farmworld, market, etc. Don't concern yourself with overworld destruction. It will all be reset if the server goes live.

    The Vanilla 1.16.4 servers are HIGHLY EXPERIMENTAL!! This is our first time testing these plugins and you should expect numerous issues as we build a workable set of plugins and config settings for 1.16.

    I don't get it. The servers will be reset if they go live? When they go live, they are new, why are they getting reset? And how is that related to destruction? Either I am still asleep or this whole warning does not make any sense.

    I have not had any hand in this, but from my understanding of the post:

    Each server will stay up for 1 week to gauge interest and gather metrics, then get shut down to make space for the next on the list.

    And from the info about free kits and not caring about Overworld destruction, it seems that the servers will get reset when and if then launch permanently.

    Ahhhhhhhh ok, I thought we get 4 permanent servers. We get 4 one week trial runs to gain stats, I get it. And if they become permanent they will get reset, so destruction is pointless. Yeah makes sense now. Thanks @Willshaper

    I'm looking forward to Antimatter chemistry. I've tried the modpack itself and it's very interesting. Although I didn't dig deep too much. But i wouldn't mind another go as a SMP.

    Think of it as a public test, both to gauge your interest and stability.

    So as we wind down the Holiday Parade of Servers, I wanted to give my 2 cents. In order of preference:
    • I enjoyed Anti-Matter Chemistry the most for its challenge of starting with minimum resources and having to create your own items from chemical elements.
    • I also thought RLCraft was fun to play, with a lot of wicked mobs and other server features that made survival difficult. Plus, /god won't necessarily save you!
    • After modded Minecraft, I've never really enjoyed the vanilla servers, especially because there are no advanced machinery or other features that make modded such a great playing experience. So neither vanilla server would get my vote.

    You got that backwards actually. We CAN do vanilla 1.16 for public. It's 1.16 modpacks we cant yet. Sponge isn't even an issue. It's the fact you can't use mods and plugins at the same time. Magma is nearing a stable release though so...soon...
