    INTRODUCING GRINDER'S DELIGHT​
    A competitive event where labor meets legacy. It's a week-long sprint to see who can mine, smelt and level up their Grinder's Delight job the most. Whether you are a brand new player or a Prestige 15 titan, every block you break is worth exactly the same - this one is decided by effort, not by how long you've been here.

    How It Works
    The objective is simple: join the job, mine, smelt, and climb.
    • Join with /jobs join GrindersDelight - it does not use up one of your three job slots.
    • View the designated actions and their exp values via /jobs info GrindersDelight.
    • Every 500 exp earned in the job levels you up and pays you 50 Grind Points.
    • Be the top Grinder for the week!
    This only counts in the mining world. Ore broken anywhere else earns nothing, and that includes smelting - your furnaces must be in the mining world too. Set up a temporary base out there if you plan to grind it out.

    • View your balance: /gp balance
    • Check the leaderboard: /gp top

    The Points System
    Not all ores are created equal. Exp is weighted by difficulty and rarity.
    • Common ores - high volume, lower exp (Coal, Copper).
    • Mid-tier ores - Iron, Redstone, Lapis, Gold.
    • Rare ores - high exp for the hard finds (Diamond, Emerald).
    • Smelting pays on top - smelting raw copper, iron and gold into ingots earns exp again, so processing what you mine is worth the extra labor.

    Prizes & The Grinder's Raffle
    We reward both the "Sweats" and the "Steady" players.
    • The Leaderboard: The top players at the end of the week receive the Grand Prizes (ECD, Unique Tags, or Relics).
    • The Grinder's Raffle: Even if you aren't #1, your points still matter! Every point you earn acts as a ticket toward the Grind Raffle. The more you grind, the higher your odds of winning a prize over time.
