This actually shows up to staff as a secret item (/rareitem or something like that). I believe this sponge will soon be coming into EMC and will be obtainable. I think it will have something to do with leader boards. Just speculation, that is all I know.
But not obtainable by normal members.. right? I have seen one or two of these around at Max's residence/a spawn and yeah, I heard they were soon going to be obtainable by players via some kind of leader board which is planned for the future?
Many months back I was live streaming a coding section and someone made a joke about this... So I coded it in live. All it is is a renamed piece of sponge: Code: public static final CustomItem EMPIRE_WAFFLE = new CustomItem(Material.SPONGE) { { ItemUtil.buildLore(this).setName("&eEmpire Waffle").save(); } };
