The Halloween Drop Party is just a couple hours away and we wanted to explain how it will work differently this year. Instead of doing the drop party on Skyblock then moving onto Economy, we will be hosting the drop on a single server. The server will be known as our Events server and will be for all future events. To participate, all you have to do is join the server by using ( /events ) before the drop and remain logged in while the plugin picks users at random. You will receive the items just as normal, and if you won, the items will be transferred to the corresponding server. (Please give us a couple hours to do the transfer after the drop has ended.) The first 100x heads will be for Skyblock specifically, then the last 100x will be for Economy. If you are an Economy player and won a head for the Skyblock Survival drop for instance, you cannot have it transferred over, though you are of course free to sell or trade it for potentially an equal value. We are doing this as all of our previous drop parties usually resulted in crashes or intense lag due to the amount of users logged in. The Events server will be on a lower version of Minecraft (1.8.9) and have no running processes such as redstone, mob spawning, etc which should boost our performance and capability of holding everyone. The events server will open up a few minutes prior to the drop, we hope this makes sense. Hope to see you there!
Best of luck everyone! thanks Noobcrew for the new handling of the drop party! hopefully this makes crashes a thing of the past.
