    The Easter drop party is coming up on the 27th of March/28th for New Zealand and chatham islands. The times will be 4:30pm EST Timezone in Eastern US, or 9:30pm BST Timezone in London for Skyblock.net & 5:30pm EST Timezone in Eastern US, or 10:30pm BST Timezone in London for Skyblock.org. The event will occur using the drop party plugin. It reduces lag and caused a more fair situation for every player involved. You just have to be online with an open inventory slot. It is automatic and the item will go straight into your inventory with the same fair chance for each individual player. Winners will be announced in chat and a temporary global mute will occur after the winner has been announced for five seconds. 50 heads will be dropped and it occurs every thirty seconds with a little room to advance to the next winner.

    I want to take a moment to thank each individual for taking the time out of their days to attend the event. If you can't attend I apologize for the inconvenience, I hope everyone that attends has an extravagant time.
    Thank you for reading and good luck in all your future endeavors.

    Metrics
    [​IMG]

    Drop Party utilizes Hidendra's Metrics system to gather anonymous usage statistics on the plugin and server it's running on. The following information is sent to mcstats.org:

    • A unique identifier
    • The server's Java version
    • Whether the server is on online or offline mode.
    • The plugin's version
    • The server's version
    • The OS' version, name, and architecture
    • The core count of the CPU
    • The number of players online
    • The Metrics version
    MCStats :: DropParty

    Opting out of this service can be done by disabling Metrics globally by editing the Metric's configuration file.
