I know what you mean - egg puns are a dime a dozen this time of year and they're not all they're cracked up to be.  :)

I'm shell-shocked at all of these puns. Someone had better have a good eggsplanation for this.

So ANY donation gets you the easter basket right?
Does the egg dropper drop easter eggs?
does the egg hunt go for all the days up to easter or just for these two days?

As it gets closer to Easter will the egg spawn rate be going up? (I think it should, as well as how often the chickens give you Easter Eggs.)

Even if currently I can't play, this is probably the best event I've seen on the server.

The drops are random and so far I got both useful and valuable things :D

Can I suggest that next time you post event times that you post them in GMT.  GMT is the international baseline and everyone should know what their time zone is relative to GMT, whereas I didn't even know what BST was until I came to this server.  GMT would make it a lot easier for everyone to convert since our playerbase is kind of all over the place, and the staff wouldn't have to answer questions about what time events start every 10 minutes.

GMT times still wouldn't be that useful, because summertime isn't the same all over the world. However I remember that back in V5 there would be these links with event posts which would show the event time in your local timezone, perhaps they could bring these back? For example http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?msg=Noobscraft+Events&iso=20130201T20&p1=136&ah=3 (http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?msg=Noobscraft+Events&iso=20130201T20&p1=136&ah=3)

Yesss, these made everything so much easier.

Guys BST is GMT just on the time save, sorta like it would be EDT instead of EST for me (never use it tho)

From what I understand of someone's post on the forum, an exploit was found and I presume the server was immediately shut down so it could be dealt with and fix any damage. :I

Daylight Saving Time is just trouble and has been proven to worsen the problem it tried to solve :P

Anyway, about each and every time I really want to play there's something going on with the server lately  o.O

At least I finished the first railway connection in Dracomere (and also in the server?) but there's still some redstone to cover up :P
