I am pleased and honoured to announce the first annual Twelve Days Of Simplex event! Lasting from now until the end of the month, we will be building, celebrating and taking home amazing prizes every weekend, with random pop up events during the course of the month! This weekend we'll be starting off with a real doozie, and I must say I'm really excited about this one. Sneakykitty has built us a tree of epic (I do mean epic) proportions, and we are going to decorate it in all the fun and wacky and Simplex ways we can! Meehan has been kind enough to set up a few pressure plates that provide temporary levitation, so we can just spiral up the tree placing as we go. And don't worry, it tacks on a resistance effect as well, so you have a couple extra seconds to get back to ground level after the levitation wears off. Although some decorations will be provided, we're hoping that everyone can bring their own, to make this the most personalized, communicized tree in the history of Minecraft! Beyond that, we've started laying out some plots: everyone is free to build what they like to make Christmas Land our own little Winter Getaway. Do note though that we want to keep this as inclusive as possible, so please leave religion at the gate. Simply find a spot with a Vacancy sign, claim the lot, and start building! Pixel Arts along the edges of the map are strongly encouraged, think of that as our mantleplace for Cards. Building can start right away, simply hit /warp comp and pick your spot! The tree will be unlocked at 3PM PST (6PM EST) Saturday (that's Sunday at 9am for Ozzies). Stay tuned to this thread for further details and the full event schedule. And of course if you have a great idea that you'd like to see incorporated, then please don't be afraid to share! |
