Hey everyone,

We have a few gifts and sales for the Thanksgiving Holiday & Black Friday!

• 'Thanksgiving Feast' Recipe: By crafting one carrot, 1 raw chicken, 1 potato, and 1 bread, you will receive a custom cooked chicken exclusive to the Thanksgiving Holiday.
  
• Obtain a limited edition "Mashed Potatoes" collectible by using '/gifts' on both Skyblock Survival and Economy.
  
• Everything on the Merch Store is 40% off. If you are trying to get anything for Christmas, the cut off for delivery is soon. I will likely take a loss on most things sold for the percentage off or break even, but I think it's cool to get some of the merch out there.
  
• Webstore - 25% off for ranks, upgrades, expansions, environments, and keys.
  
• Double vote rewards for this weekend only.

Thankgiving Feast:


Thanksgiving Gift:

Hope everyone enjoys, and for anyone that celebrates, Happy Thanksgiving!

Global Updates - November 25th, 2025

• Added "Grove" biome to '/changebiome' menu.
  
• I will be getting rid of the update intervals for cursors that commonly show on item frames, this is responsible for showing your location on a common map.
  
  Though since this is not used, and mainly for maparts. We will see if we get any performance improvement from getting rid of it entirely. Will take effect tomorrow, let me know if any issues.

We have improved our hardware again for both Skyblock Survival and Economy.

Our last update was in September, though since that time, a newer cpu was released so we decided to take advantage of it for maximum performance. We performed the update without much notice, but Matt and I wanted to get it out of the way. Servers were offline for less than 40 minutes.

Previous:
CPU - AMD EPYC 4584PX

New:
CPU - AMD EPYC 4585PX

Minecraft utilizes single-threaded servers only, therefore we are limited and can never fully utilize the servers we are running on.

According to CPU benchmark for single-threaded servers, the 4584PX is ranked #184, while the 4585PX is ranked #22. The other CPUs in the top 20 are dominated by Apple and Intel which are CPUs we can't run on or obtain.

We may have about a 10%-15% improvement, though they are highly similar so it may be hard to determine. We have also upgraded our ram from 64gbs to 128gbs, but it will make no difference as we never hit...

Global Updates - November 24th, 2025

• Improved 'Change Time' Menu within /sb
• Improved 'Change Weather' Menu within /sb
  
• Improved 'Change Biome' Menu within /sb
• Improved 'Expansion' Menu within /sb
  
• Small changes to 'Help', 'Environments', and 'Daily' menus.
  
• Small changes to various language messages (colors, typos, nothing major) relating to our Skyblock plugin and various others.
  
• Various improvements to help with stability and latency, nothing that should affect normal gameplay functions.
  
• Increased prices of changing weather, time, and biomes to be slightly more - still very cheap.
  
• The plugin that limits redstone and various items/blocks such as hopper minecarts and spawners was temporarily removed while we improve some functions. It was responsible for some lag spikes on those with massive machines. I would not recommend going past previous limits as it may be difficult for you to remove when the plugin is added back within next 48 hours....
