Hey everyone.

Last night I developed a system so that any time a developer changes code, not only does it test that the code compiles, but it can test that the behavior of EMC does not break.

So for example, on our 1.8 update we had a bug that broke Persistent Meta Data and we lost some items stored in blocks....

This kind of system prevents that from happening as the test would fail.

So what I need from you:

Help list various 'details' about EMC that you can think of that if it stopped happening, we would consider a bug.

Then we can go through and write test cases against those.

This will help EMC avoid bugs, so any help is appreciated! Thanks

WINNERS ANNOUNCED!
It's that time of year everyone! The hot chocolate is out, the lights are up, and it's time for a Holiday Contest! This year, the contest is Snow Globe Building!

Poll: How should the 'A' look?
As we get further into 2017, EMC is working to become fully EULA compliant. That being said, each step on the way requires some changes to some aspects of EMC that have been around for a LONG time and change is difficult for some.

The official Empire Minecraft logo must have a small alteration in order to remove the creeper face, which is technically a Minecraft asset, from it. It's important we know what players of the community want before finalizing everything. We use this logo in a LOT of places that will all be changing soon. Please note that the only differences between the pictures below have to do with the 'A' and that's all we are looking to change at this time. We look forward to seeing what everyone thinks. Poll closes February 1st.

Please review and vote in the poll. This is a public vote in order to prevent abuse by alts. You may choose more than one design if you like multiple.

The Empire Shop is CLOSING in 2017!

Update: The Empire Shop has been replaced by /shopworld, your go-to location for the DDTT, and promotional items, when/if available.

Old thread...
That's right. A massive sandstorm is coming to the Empire Shop's sandy dunes and it's going to close the doors for good. What's left after the dust settles will no longer sell all items.

Please give a warm congratulations to Eviltoade and JDHallow, your newest Empire Events Organizers.
They have the fancy title on the forums and everything so you can't forget. =)

For a while now Dramanya has been the Events Organizer, all by her lonesome. She's done a fantastic job keeping everyone organized when it comes to who hosts what, and filling in gaps in the schedule. However, upon adding Dramanya, it was originally our intention to create an entire team of staff that are specifically geared towards helping the Community Manager with brainstorming, planning out, and hosting even MORE events/contests for the server.

Please note that they continue to be Moderators officially and will handle their Event tasks in addition to their Moderator tasks.

Behold the unfortunate tale of Mouthless the Wanderer and his crippling fear of spiders, featuring Jeff the Sheep. This comic/short story is the work of SoulPunisher, currently known as synth_apparition on EMC.
