I'd like to wish everyone a Merry Christmas from myself and the rest of the Noobstown team! I hope you all enjoy the holiday season, and that you get to spend some time doing something you enjoy. To celebrate Christmas it'll be 2x mcMMO XP, PLUS a bonus 10% on all standard items sold to /shop all the way through to the New Year! There is also a gift for Day 25! Remember to take any of the Advent gifts you've opened but not collected before the end of the month too! Plus a reminder that for this month only there is a special extra Top Players of the Month category for most Snow shovelled!

Are we allowed to use any mods to save the world around us so we can preserve our builds?
This isn't something we'd suggest you do. We have no plans to not preserve your builds as we have done for many years now. If you're active then your builds should still be there the next time you want to play here. At the moment we simply require you to connect at least once in the last three months to ensure your builds aren't removed from the Wilderness world, but in reality it's often much longer than that. You will receive a warning message from me on the site if you're getting close to the three month time. Plus if you contact me and explain things then I'm happy to reasonably extend that time too. From our end there is currently no way to export your individual builds from Noobstown and this isn't something we plan on offering. As is standard with Minecraft servers; if you want to build and play on Noobstown then that's where your builds will sit.

I'm sorry that some of you haven't enjoyed things as much as in previous years. I agree it has taken more effort this year than in the majority of the previous ones, based on the way that current quests work my expectation was that a small amount of time spent looking (essentially a new small quest/event each day) might be something enjoyable or fun to do; I'm sorry you've not seen it that way. I agree with the way Wikipedia describes the common advent calendars; I'll highlight: ...
Often the doors are distributed across the calendar in no particular order.
...
If you consider the whole town the calendar then having to search for the chests is just on a bigger scale  . However to make it quicker and less of a search for those of you who don't want to do that I've added some additional warps for each of the future days (including today). You can now use /warp gift12, /warp gift13, etc ( /warp giftN). all the way to /warp gift25 to jump right to that day's chest. If you don't want to cheat it and still want to search that's also fine; the warps are just a way to skip the search. I'll definitely take your feedback on board and reconsider how we do it next year. Plus if you want to provide feedback on any of the other events we've offered please PM me or if you have suggestions you are welcome to post them in the Suggestions Board.

...If I didn't get help from someone, I might've spend well over half an hour looking for the right spot. Not a fan of this Noobmas event at all. I am a working man, I have a busy life. I don't have time to search every day. Some days I just need to quickly hop on and collect my gift before I have to go to bed. Please consider changing the advent chests.
I love noobmas but I really dislike the chests, like the person above me. I nearly missed the first chest yesterday, and I spent nearly an hour looking for it. The chests can be there all day, but they are in such random and not easy spots to find. They should be interesting to find, but they shouldn't take so long. Last years took a long time, but was totally easier to find than this years.
Had to be shown to today's gift again cause I couldn't find it on my own. Didn't have the time to get online yesterday and run around the town for half an hour, hoping to find it. What's supposed to be a fun, light-hearted Christmas event (my favourite time of the year) is turning more and more into a major annoyance. Really not happy with the advent chests, and I'm not the only one that's struggling with them.
...
I appreciate your honest feedback, I'm sorry you're not enjoying it as much as previous years. I've tried to mix things up a little each year more recently; making changes and giving things a try. This year I do agree there is a little more work involved in finding the chests, but it's not too much effort; all you need to do is go around the shops and other buildings in the town and look for the chests. All of them are in clear spots in/near the buildings and should stand out with the floating text above them, plus the one for the current day is clearly labelled as such with "TODAY" which should make it even simpler. I don't think putting in a few minutes of looking around is too much to ask, it's a reward for those who are willing to take part and spend time doing so, you can choose to take part in the activities by looking for them and accept the free items if you want to.

Rewards have now been given to those who solved the mystery, plus a taking part reward for all who took part.
Each player who solved the mystery received an equal share of Mr Bones' 2,000,000Nbz fortune, plus some other items!

Larry, I'm a bit confused, where do you get the thing that you give to the day 1 person???
To clarify the daily gifts are found in chests around the town. Each day a new one will unlock. When not yet open the gifts look like:  Then when they open they'll say the day number above them and "TODAY" in the floating text above them, or if previously unlocked they'll list their day. Within each daily gift there is a Token which can then be traded in to the villagers near the spot that /warp noobmas gets you to. This is the way you can claim the bonus reward for collecting all 25 gifts. Plus there are additional villagers for the quest.

Starting from the 1st of December we'll be continuing our annual tradition of the daily rewards and advent countdown to Christmas (25th). This year the gifts are spread around a special Noobmas town ( Merrytown), you'll need to search around the town at /warp noobmas to find the gift chest each day. Every day (until the 25th) at /warp noobmas look around the town to find the free gift for that day (it'll be clearly labelled with a floating message above it)! Just click the gift chest to claim the daily reward. Each day the new gift will open at midnight GMT (UK time) with different rewards! You need to make sure you open each box on the day it's related to otherwise you'll miss out though! There's a countdown timer above each box and at spawn so you know how long until the next one will open! Additionally this year there is a bonus reward available for all of you who collect the gift on all 25 days; each gift will include a Token which can be traded in each adding up to a special bonus reward. You need them all to get that reward. The trades for those are again in the town at /warp noobmas. Plus there's a new Noobmas quest available! It's also in the town at /warp noobmas! Can you help the villagers with their organisation of a special celebration for their town? Get started at /warp noobmas and using /kit theme!
PLUS it'll be 2x mcMMO XP all this weekend!

Wait, Mr.Bones killed himself? Or was that a typo? Whatever the case, congrats to all that solved it!...
Whoops, sorry that was supposed to say Mr Brew killed Mr Bones , wasn't clear. Sorted above now. The killer was Mr Brew.

The Noobween Mansion Mystery has been solved...by a number of you! The mystery involved determining who killed Mr Bones; including establishing the weapon, motive, incriminating clue and time of visit for each of the 5 suspects! A number of you got it; the killer was Mr Brew! Plus the details of each are as follows: - Mr Brew used the Diamond Sword to act Revenge, he left behind a Trail of Sugar after visiting Mr Bones at 9:05pm.
- Mr Magic had the Lava, his potential motive was that he Needed Bones, he left behind a Footprint after his meeting at 11:55pm.
- Mrs Spell had the TNT, she wanted to Steal Candies, she left behind a Glass Bottle and visited Mr Bones at 11:25pm.
- Miss West had the Poison Potion, she wanted to Steal Diamonds, but she left behind some Spider Eyes, during her visit at 10:30pm.
- Mr Wicked had an Iron Axe, he wanted to Take the Mansion from Mr Bones, he left behind the Note, and visited Mr Bones at 10:45pm.
Here is the solution in the grid, for those of you who used it:  To solve the solution you needed to both work out the correct killer and figure out each different part of the mystery. The following people did that: For those of you who submitted a solution but aren't listed (didn't quite get it all right), if you'd like to know where you were slightly off then let me know.Rewards for taking part and prizes for those who solved the whole mystery will be given out this coming weekend! I hope you enjoyed the slightly different challenge for Noobween this year, I'd love to hear your feedback or suggestions regarding it, and if you'd like something similar or not in the future. EDIT: Rewards have now been given out, please see the reply below.
The Noobween Candies have also now stopped dropping. The trades will continue to be available for a few more days at /warp noobween, so be sure to exchange them in to avoid missing out. Plus be sure to check on the server again on Saturday and throughout December as our annual Noobmas Advent begins on the 1st! More information will be posted tomorrow!

Noobween 2018 is here on Noobstown.com. This year there's a mystery to solve! Can you help out and solve the mystery? At /warp noobween join in and figure things out; then once Noobween is over all those who managed to solve the mystery and submit the correct solution will earn themselves a share of the reward pot! Visit the Housekeeper in the mansion at /warp noobween using /kit theme for more information! The mystery is a logic puzzle than can be solved using only the limited information provided. You will have to do some hard thinking and deduction to work things out from the clues. Once you've solved the mystery you need to submit your solution at https://www.noobscraft.com/noobween-mystery/ to earn a reward. Rewards will be given out with the solution once Noobween ends next month. To help you out there is a logic puzzle grid which will potentially help you deduce things from the clues provided, available here, or as an image here. This sort of challenge is a little different and involves a lot more thinking than what we've previously done, but hopefully it's a fun challenge for those of you who want to take it on. If you've got a solution don't share your answer with others, it will ruin the fun for them and may disqualify you from being able to earn a reward.
Plus as normal we've got candy dropping as you do things around the server! Like last year, there are many flavours to collect. Simply play as you normally would and keep an eye out for the random candy drops! The candy can then be collected and traded in for rewards (including rare heads and money) at /warp noobween. The selection of rewards available might be adjusted as the month goes on so keep checking to see if anything there has changed. Be sure to try a number of different mcMMO skills and in different worlds to see what you can get  ; there are different candies for doing different things ( and they're not all the same actions as last year!) The Noobween Mystery challenge and candy trades will be available for the rest of October and into mid-November!
It's also 2x mcMMO XP this weekend (19th-20th Oct)!

The rewards for the Top Players of the Month contests (July so far) are now available! All top players of July will have received their prizes as a gift from me, use /gift collect to collect them. The rewards were as follows: - The top three players in each category will have received a 1st, 2nd or 3rd place award.
- Every top 10 player will have received Reward Tokens which can be traded in for a range of things at /warp top. Depending on your position you'll have received a different number of these for each category; 1st place gets 10, 2nd 9, etc. all the way down to 10th who get 1. See below for more information about the trades.
- Every top 10 player will have also received a reward head for the month, each month this will be different!
Trading using the Reward TokensAt /warp top there are loads of villager trades where you can exchange the Reward Tokens in for things; some extremely powerful unique things, some common but useful. Reward Tokens are different for each of the Top 10 lists, each one having its own item, and a number of different trades. Some of the trades require a certain number of specific category tokens while others use "general" tokens, which can be obtained by swapping in specific ones. It's recommended that you look around all of the trades (being sure to check all of the multiple trades in each villager) before you rush into something because there are loads of different options!The Reward Tokens will be the same from month to month so you'll be able to save them up/collect them to try and get some of the more expensive things later on. The trades might change though so be sure to get things if you want them! If you don't like any of the trades available at the moment or have an idea for something cool that you'd like to be able to get through the Reward Tokens feel free to leave your idea in a reply or a new topic at https://www.noobscraft.com/idea/. The rewards should be something you want, so please suggest things if you think it'd be fun! Hall of FameIf you visit /warp top you'll notice a big area is currently blocked off, this will eventually become a "Hall of Fame" for the Top 10 Players in each category for the last month. This isn't open just yet, but keep an eye out for that too!
August Winners and RewardsThe winners for August will be announced soon, and then rewards for then will be given out too! Be aware that September's contest has already begun though!

Updates have been made which should hopefully make things slightly more playable using 1.13.x. For now we still recommend you play using 1.12.2 though!

"To reiterate, the proper full July prizes will be given out later this month, and will be available for August's winners on the 1st of September!"
It's the 30th, looking forward to those rewards tomorrow.
Excited!
The correct prizes for July will be given out tomorrow (1st September), I realise it'll no longer be August at that point, but it's only just the 1st of September and because it's a weekend it gives me lots of time to listen and adjust things based on any feedback I hear from the rewards! I'm sorry it's taken so long; hopefully it's worth the wait to give you a number of reward choices. As you'll be able to see tomorrow (once the rewards are given out) there will be loads of options available; and even after the choices are shown if there's something you'd like to be able to get that isn't available, I'd love to hear about it, and will work on any reasonable suggestions to improve the options. The August prizes (for being top in August) will then be announced after that.

The first month of the Top Players of the Month contests is now over! It's great to see all of the competition to reach the top spots in almost all of the different options. Based on some your feedback a few things have/will change in the coming weeks/months. Unfortunately due to external issues I've been unable to quite finish the complete reward options which were planned to be available for scoring well in the Top Players of the Month. You'll eventually be able to essentially pick your preferred prize from a range of options (with the more wins the bigger the reward, plus the ability for you to also save up month-by-month to get even better rewards!) (and you'll get a bonus rare head dependant on your position). This however isn't fully ready yet as was originally planned when the contest started last month; therefore at the moment for July the rewards will be slightly different; I realise this is quite disappointing, but I don't want you to feel like you're missing out, so everyone in the top 10s this month will get bonus money to begin with ( and then once the reward selection is fully available I'll give out the proper rewards for July too!) The bonuses this month for each individual category will be as follows: - 50k Nbz
- 45k Nbz
- 40k Nbz
- 35k Nbz
- 30k Nbz
- 25k Nbz
- 20k Nbz
- 15k Nbz
- 10k Nbz
- 5k Nbz
Congratulations to all of the winners, I appreciate you all for taking part! August's contest has already begun, you can view your positions throughout the month at https://www.noobscraft.com/top/ or using /top in-game! The winners for July are listed in the reply below!
