General - Admins relax this week as activity is up on ShadeCrest Ok so I'm kinda cheating with this being the only real update this week, but the let's be honest. The last 5-6 months there have been a lot of updates and especially in the last 2-3 weeks we've been on a really grueling sprint to release a lot of new things on Survival. With the school year ramping up for a lot of folks, amazingly the amount of player's we're seeing online has actually increased substantially recently. We've seen new towns re-emerge, old faces return, and in general both of our core servers (and vanilla) have seen an increase in the average nightly playerbase. General - Help us Advertise to get more players! As I mentioned last week, we finished re-vamping some of the quiz questions on survival along with the update to the wiki, hopefully that will help with new people joining the server and sticking with it. What we need from everyone is to please, please, please occasionally post on these forums. Give an update of what you're building, or experiences you've had. It helps show we have an active community, bumps the threads, and is one of the major ways we get new players (other than voting of course). Also, every week I post updates on our Facebook page. I plan on posting stuff on there more often as well. If you could take the time to follow us on Facebook you'll get notified of updates like this one and minor updates throughout the week. Liking the posts on facebook will make sure that your friends learn about facebook (by essentially them seeing your likes). Thanks again and happy gaming!

Oh I forgot to post this. Someone made the request to allow dynamite for the purposes of clearing land in PvE (and possibly even PvP). It's something we're considering opening up as long as people continue to follow the general land use rules (if it's not mining world, don't just deface the land and make it look like poop), players are expected to keep mining operations to mining worlds (mining, nether, end). Also yes (before you ask) we will be resetting the mining worlds when the next version officially lands on ShadeCrest so everyone gets the new kinds of resources.
Another form of advertising that you can do (if you don't feel like posting "bump" comments), is to upload your builds online. If we can get a dozen builds from SC on places like PMC, then it can really help show people that we're a fun place to be (which we are)
Waterpower has another treasure hunt Saturday 5:30pm EST (so I guess about 8:30 Sunday morning for east coast Aussies and ummm 10:30 Saturday night for UK? Might want to confirm those times if you're interested.)
It is amazing how I make a post asking people to bump the MCForums posts, but instead they bump this post instead. /facepalm Sent from my myTouch_4G_Slide using Tapatalk 2
