    There are plenty of things on the agenda. As for now, I'm not sure when this will be implemented. Phys/Jakey would be the only ones to really know.

    Pancakes, my mom always made pancakes since I was young so yeah.

    Applications :b lolol

    I'm honestly not sure why there wouldn't be one. If a suggestion hasn't been made, I recommend making one if that's something you'd like to see! :)

    Pancakes! <3

    Oh my. Have you tried to uninstall and re-install Minecraft? Maybe a corrupt file?
    That would be the first thing/only thing I could think of really.
    After that, google does well at solving some problems. :3

    Occasionally it is server side, sometimes it is not. As of this moment, there may be a little bit of lag.

    They wouldn't be deleted if you don't delete the Screenshots file in your bin folder.

    This thread is a great idea. Let me start by saying that I think staff do a great job. I don't have any questions more pressing than this one:

    So, my experience with the Christmas scavenger hunt has left me unwilling to participate in future server events. It was promoted heavily by one particular staff member, and was supposed to be run by her. The grand prize was to be $250,000 for the winning team, and it was an incredibly time-consuming and not always enjoyable experience -- especially when the staff member running it suddenly stopped being a staff member, and the contest just sort of ended without any prizes being given out until 6 to 8 weeks later.

    Now, I am not remotely criticizing the staff members who picked up the pieces. I think it's great, given what happened, that we got anything at all and I was pleasantly surprised. .

    My question is this: has this experience for us and for the staff who had to pick up the pieces led to any new rules or ideas on how server events will be planned, promoted and run in the future?

    Also, you could always move them to another folder and then back once you install again...

    As I do not run the events like that, I'm not sure how to answer, but I can tell you now that we have a few people handling it, things should go smoothly next event. I apologize for the inconvenience you may have faced, and I thank you for bearing with us through a transition.
