  1. Sure, I'll try to remeber that... ;)

  2. Honestly, this is sad to me. The EMC I knew when I joined was all about survival, fighting bosses as a team, and economy. I came to EMC because was an untainted survival server with a helpful community. But now, I'm beginning to see the start of something bad, a diluted EMC, a devided server. I don't want to see that happen. Also, this will split the population of EMC, leaving less for traditional EMC. Please, don't let it come to that.

  3. EMC is still all about community–just look at the forums! This feature is purely optional; neither you nor your friends have to participate in it. As of now, there are no rewards, leaderboards, etc. involved, either, setting it far apart from any kind of minigames server; this is purely for fun.

    You should also note that it isn't exactly stealing members away from the other areas of the server; there's only one player on it as I write this, for example. It was never meant to run the show on EMC, just provide another way to have some fun for those who want it (including people who just want a change from building their outpost for 20 minutes before they get back to it). Same EMC. :)

  4. EMC was so much different when I joined than it was when you joined, and I'm honestly not bothered by it. When I joined, the SMP's were all always full and there were only 4 or 5 of them. The population splitting is good because it makes room for more players. I saw Aikar step up to ownership when Justinguy stepped down. The server, to me, is better now than it has been. Because without change, it's just the same boring server that it was last year and the year before.

    Honestly, I don't think the EMC either of us knew when we joined was the "traditional EMC". It's just... different. And that's not a bad thing

  5. Sorry about the weird reply. I'm posting posting from my 3DS and the browser's pretty bad. Anyway, I'm glad to hear about that and I am happy to know that EMC is its same great self :)

  6. Don't worry. :) The Games server is a separate server, and doesn't influence the smp's, except that certain games that used to be on the smp's got moved to the Games server now (pvp and firefloor, for example).
    But moreover: have you actually checked out the games server? It's nothing like the massively popular minigame servers that are around. :) Really, like always, it has been managed to make something unique, and something fitting to the EMC experience! And it's good to have an option like this, as it might stimulate people to stay on EMC instead of moving to the big minigame servers when they get bored. ;)
  7. I have a server? yay!

  8. Hi All

    I have not checked through all the posts, I was wondering if we have skyblock yet or if it is coming to the games server?
  9. Most if not all games in place seem to be ones that are original, or have at least got an EMC twist. I'm not sure if we'd be having a solid format game like that.
    Would you want to play Skyblock on EMC?
  10. I'd play Skyblock on EMC

  11. Now if we have some hybrid form of walls/firefloor that would be sweet. Maybe even a Horse race arena.

  12. I would and there are other games such as survival island. I think something like these could be done on emc. I know you can do things like these in the wild yourself but I just thought that things like these would be better suited to the games server.

  13. Finally had some time to take a look at this, and went to play Golf with my daughter. Both of us loved it! AND gives me some more fun time with her (most importantly) I don't feel it dilutes EMC at all, as I will continue to be primarily a survival player and builder, whereas my daughter loves games and it may interest her more in the server, as well as others. I believe it will be a great new drawing card.

    Most excellent work, so Thank You Aikar, Krysyy and the whole team!
