Hi everyone! It's time yet again for a slight rearrangement of HC. We aren't adopting a brand new design yet, but we will be updating to version 10.2, with the goal of significantly improving the experience for you guys based on feedback from the blues that have gone through version 10.1. This new version will without a doubt be easier than the current design, meaning that all you blues currently struggling in HC might have a better chance at completing it now. The core structure will remain the same, however, we are removing one map from the design meaning that the total required map count will be reduced from 15 to 14. More details on this new design will be posted once the maintenance is concluded.

We will be starting the maintenance at 12am UTC (00:00 UTC, Sunday Morning) and the server will be closed for approximately an hour or so while we set everything up.

Your HC position will automatically be updated to an equivalent spot in the new...

It has been long awaited. It has been long in the works. But it is finally here.

We recreated all of the maps in Hardcore to be playable as Greens+. Not only the maps in the most recent iteration (HC10.1), but also the maps in ALL the previous iterations. This includes maps no longer seen in FFA, such as the elusive 'glowstone labyrinth', 'stone maze', 'srenmaze' and... 'miner's millions'.

I originally planned this to come out 2 years ago, as part of the 8th birthday celebrations, but the project turned out to be much more humongous than I had anticipated. (And.. I already anticipated it to not be a cake walk).

Pieceofcheese and I have been working hard to also set up the associated challenges, such that you can experience each Hardcore version, including the minor versions, in its full glory, original boxes and all. We tried to pay attention to detail, but with such a sheer amount of boxes, maps and challenges, and sometimes missing information, it was not easy.

In line with all the celebrations going on for Minr's 10th anniversary, I'm going to break the streak of summer/winter Ninja Warriors and host one on the 24th this month! After _Fire_'s triumph over the course in Ninja Warrior XIV in July, the course has been revamped and become more difficult than ever, featuring completely new obstacles as well as evolved versions of some old ones. Only one way to find out what the course looks like now!

Event Date:
October 24, 2020 (Saturday)

Event Times and Conversions:
12pm - US Pacific (UTC -7)
3pm - US Eastern (UTC -4)

Prize (NEW):
To spice things up a little bit, we're going to change how prize money is determined in the event of a Total Victory (or multiple). We're going to start with a base amount of 50$ as usual, but now, we're going to increase the prize money by 5$ for every tournament without someone hitting that button on the top of the final tower...

In celebration of 10 years of Minr and the launch of minr merch not for profit shop, I will be giving away some freebies.

Any rank can enter. Only 1 entry per person...

It took a bit of time (which, in hindsight, it maybe should not have needed to), but Delta 2 is now available. (Using /warp delta, still). The original delta is now mostly inaccessible (unless you have a bed location there). The same rules apply this time around - no greenie commands. 'Homes' are set using bed or respawn anchor locations, just like vanilla MC (we have a warp sign with a 20m cooldown at delta spawn when you switch to another world during play).

If you need a transfer of an old build or items in Delta to Zero, you are allowed to ask an op to do so (soon-ish, until former Delta becomes officially deprecated). This also holds for transferring items from the new Delta to Zero. Please note that items cannot travel from original Delta to Delta, nor from Zero to Delta.

Have fun, and enjoy true vanilla MC

(Please submit issues to this thread -- I am on a holiday for 10 days, so if they are non-important, they may be deferred to a later date.)

Greetings and salutations. I'm sure all you blues and new greens have had a boatload of fun with HC10.0, which is why we decided to make it even better! Hardcore will be receiving an update to version 10.1 tomorrow. It will start at 12am UTC (00:00 UTC, Saturday morning) and it will last for an indeterminate amount of time .

The core design of HC will remain the same, with 15 levels and three paths to choose that span levels 5-7. The focus of this update is to improve the balance of the three paths and to lower the tedium that came along with some of the maps from the original design. Note that this update will not make HC particularly harder or easier than before, so there is no need to rush ahead before tomorrow. More details on the design will be posted in this thread after the maintenance has concluded.

Your HC position will automatically be updated to an equivalent spot in the new HC version when maintenance is finished. If you somehow have lost your progress...

Hi there everyone!

I'm here to announce a brand new event - Minr Sightseeing!

Now, what is Minr Sightseeing? It's simple! You will get a set of pictures taken in Minr FFA or FFA+ maps, and your goal is to find and visit all of them! The winner is whoever can find all of them first, or whoever has found the most once the time runs out.
The event will be played in teams of 2, and anyone can participate! To sign up, reply to this thread with the name of your teammate, as well as your team name if you can come up with one.

Here is an example image. You won't get anything if you find it, but during the event you will simply have to walk to all of the shown locations to earn a point.


Prizes

Anyone who partakes and finds at least one image will be awarded a unique hat, but the winning team will receive an exclusive title and a Steam game of their choice up to 10$ USD from @Hex

1.16 released yesterday \o/

As with every update, we're dependent on the server software and our plugins to be able to update to the newer versions. We will update this thread to keep you posted on the progress toward 1.16, and we will try to update as soon as possible.

This time around there are only minor breakages in terms of commands and technicalities, so we should be completely fine to update as soon as possible. A common discussion has been whether to reset Delta or not (our vanilla survival world), and, while we are still awaiting the results of the poll conducted as part of the FFA+ ballot, it is quite likely that Delta will be reset due to the significant changes to the nether. As discussed in the original Delta thread, this does not mean that we will immediately delete the old Delta world - we should be able to set up any transfers of items (and possibly builds) to the Zero world (or Theta, if...
