OK. I know many people won't like this, BUT I think it would be awesome. The idea is ultimately for much later in the future as I know andrew and jamie are busy with other things. What I'm proposing is a solely Vanilla Hardcore PVP server. No selling stuff, the whole point is to see how many kills you have by the end of the month.

DETAILS:
Vanilla HardCore PVP
Monthly Reset of the world
When a Player dies they keep their kill record
The only command would be /killrecord or /kr to see how many kills they have
I'd say make it 2 lives per month. You get 2 lives. After you die twice you can't play any more that month

GOAL:
Have the most kills by the end of the month

REWARDS:
Top 5 players get rewards, with the rewards being different for each spot.
#1 receives 700k ECD + 1 VMR Crate Key + (something valuable for Skyblock)
#2 receives 500k ECD + 1 VMR Crate Key
#3 receives 450k ECD
#4 receives 300k ECD
#5 receives 250k ECD

EDIT:
Also note that the difficulty would be set to Hard Mode. :p
