We have produced a simple events timetable listing events and times and dates for those events. These are all correct at the time of the page being published and may change. The timetable can be found by simply visiting http://www.noobscraft.com/summer. If you feel that we haven't really put on an event in your timezone we will do our best to add something into the timetable to suit all areas of the world. Please just post below and look for changes to the timetable. I hope you can all attend a few events and that you enjoy what we have to offer! We will be holding random unannounced events too so make sure you are online to see if we are doing anything! Have a great summer, - The Noobscraft Team 356

Site Announcements / Voting just got easier!« on: 26 May 2012, 19:07:45 »Earlier today we implemented a really simple but quick way for you to vote for us on Planet Minecraft. Every 24 hours a quick vote box will appear at the top of the site prompting you to vote, all you then have to do is enter the correct security code and your Minecraft username, click "Cast Vote" and wait, we'll handle the rest. If you entered the correct information we'll give you 500 FREE Noobz for doing so, it takes just a few seconds! (You can get 500 more every 24 hours!) We will be monitoring the use of this new feature over the next few days to ensure that it provides the best improved experience for Noobscraft and Noobstown community! 360

Again apologies for the inconvience, but we can assure you that it will be a better experience for you now on Noobstown. -Edit by Waterworth 361
Server Announcements / Security Update« on: 24 Apr 2012, 20:40:44 »
As many of you may be aware earlier today we had slight glitch regarding some of the operator permissions on the server.
This issue has now been fixed and precautions have been taken to ensure that similar events don't occur again. We would like to thank all our dedicated users for their continued support for Noobstown, and we hope that you will continue to enjoy our services and updates in the future! 362
Server Announcements / Latest Update« on: 9 Apr 2012, 03:38:42 »
We recently updated the server. A few changes were made.
Spawner Changing Using spawning eggs you can now change artificial spawners to different animals. All friendly mobs can now come from spawners if you change them. All you have to do is left click on your spawner with a friendly mob egg and it will use the egg to convert the spawner to that type of animal. (If you want the little entity in the spawner cage to update straight away you will need to leave the area or reload though.) You will need to claim any spawners of yours by clicking on them with a mob egg (if you use the same egg as the spawner it will lock it without using up the egg), this will lock it so that only you can then change what animal the spawner spawns. You can keep changing the spawners to any of the animals as much as you want, but it does use up spawner eggs. Spawn eggs are available from the Points shop and from events! The following animals can be set:

As you may already know, Minecraft 1.2 was released today (http://www.mojang.com/2012/03/minecraft-1-2-is-out/).

Site Announcements / Important: Username Changes« on: 21 Jan 2012, 00:55:12 »
Over the next few days (beginning today) we will be updating ALL site usernames which do not match their connected IGN.
We will be converting all site usernames to match the Minecraft username attached to that account (IGN). This is to make our membership application system much simpler and also removes any confusion people may have regarding site accounts and Minecraft connections. We will then begin to phase out the use of IGNs and use only the site usernames. It makes it all much simpler to understand. All of those who are effected by this change will receive an email about your username change as we go through our list; it will mean that you will need to update your account password. (you can keep it the same, just the system needs to update it's encryption of your password with the new username) Once the change has taken place to you, you will then need to login to this site using the new username (which was previously your IGN). If you believe that you have NOT set a valid, accessible email to your account you MUST set a valid one as soon as possible as you will be unable to login once this change happens as your username and password may both become invalid and the new, valid information will not reach you. Some questions you may have:
If you have any other questions please do feel free to post them below, I will be sure to answer all ones I can. |
