Power to the Players - Official Events!
« on: 3 Aug 2015, 00:23:39 »
Hey Noobs!

Along side our official events and themed months (Which are coming soon) we would like to give power to our players to host/run their own official games/events inside their town communities or wild chunks. Unfortunately, we cannot give you any specific powers to create/run your events, so you'll have to be creative and work around what is available inside the server- we will however provide custom prizes and promotion on the front page. If this sounds interesting and if you would like to get involved please do contact one of the admins or staff members ensuring the following check list is complete:

- I have a time and date for my event
- I have built the event or have an idea in place that will be completed before the due date
- All of my game rules have been stated to the staff (Can people die? PVP?)
- I have stated what rewards I would like (You must request, we will not give out crazy rewards so please be sensible :D)

Rules:

- The event must be available to all players, nobody will be excluded
- An online staff member will aid/watch over your event that is taking place and intervene if necessary
- The event must follow all server rules, no traps or griefing.

Once you have read through all that and checked everything off, please send a detail description of your game/event, time and date and the location (coordinates). We can provide a special /warp to your event on the date.

Pig racing is a very fun thing to do. Just make a race track and run over it with a pig, saddle and a stick with a carrot :)

So, contests that don't require control blocks? Of if they do, will staff provide them?

Hmm, I might see about a boat race. It would have to have obstacles. I'll let you know.

What's the limitation on providing items for use by the participants for sale? Like the fishing rods for fishing events?

No traps, well, that rules out 'the floor is lava' parkour

I'm not sure, that's technically not a trap. Especially if it's part of the entire experience. I mean, if you create a mob spawn by keeping a portion of your dungeon in the dark, is that a trap?

Will it be possible to have certain commands disabled inside an event area? E.g. if I build a parkour event, is it possible to have commands such as /j, /tpa, /sethome, etc. disabled inside my parkour area?

Not a trap if you state 1. Players can die / lose items / PVP  and 2. Make them aware of the lava.

If for example there were ways players could die WITHOUT being told of things, this would be seen as a 'trap' or 'griefing' players.

Yes, we should be able to setup temporary block regions.
