And for those who will attempt to cry wolf about the star tool market, don't make assumptions without doing some math and research first. If you'd like to request changes, do so via the suggestion section after at least a month has gone by, with valid points, market effects, purchase amounts you've witnessed, etc.

For those who are interested, below we have attached our planning overview which details all aspects of this addition. (We don't usually attach our overviews but figured since this is a big thing in regards to the economy, we would do so this time).

Main news post regarding release/more information can be found here.
Just wanted to let everyone know that I will be away this month starting in a few days. I am flying to Europe for a few weeks and will return in the New Year (January 1st-3rd). I will be between several countries and for the first time am not taking a laptop with me, going on a real vacation finally (something I haven't done in over 6-7 years). I will still have my cellphone and will be able to attend to the following:

- Check the forums & attend to my inbox.
- Respond via Discord in regards to any serious situations.

- [email protected] email will be fully functional for assistance with any BuyCraft purchases you make (responses may take up to 24-48 hours so please be patient). Please note this email as always is prioritized specifically for financial payment support.
- Server maintenance and hardware monitoring will be done and I'll have full access to everything needed for any situation so no worries there.
- And yes, I will try to throw some sports up if I can :)

@JamieSinn will be around as well and he has just as much access as myself to basically everything. As well don't forget we have an amazing staff team and our @Moderator 's would be happy to help you with anything you require throughout this month. As well don't forget about our Help/Support section on the forums, which is probably the fastest way for you to get help.


Anyways, just wanted to let you guys know why I'll be MIA. Big Christmas holiday with the entire family :) Happy holidays everyone!

PS: In addition, would like to add that in December our main focus will be 1.13 preparation. I have an entire game-mode ready to go already (no not Skyblock, another one we're launching first), but this won't get released until the New Year (early January) & until we have updated all our plugins and custom code to...
SG changes/competition:
Ends December 29th 11:59pm EST
Winners announced January 1st-3rd.

(We wanted to end it prior to New Years Eve so users don't have to
worry about others overtaking them due to New Year's Eve parties/etc.)

- The SG competition for this current month of December will work a bit differently than previous ones. We will not be resetting the leader boards nor will we actually host any leader boards at all. The results will come at the end of the competition.

Competing is simply, for every SG game you win, you get 1 point. The top 10 SG game winners will get rewarded with the prizes listed below.

This is also the very absolute last chance to get the 2017 SG service medal if you don't already have it. Once 2017 is over, you will never have the opportunity to earn it again.

[​IMG]

1st place: $2,000,000 EcoDollars + Event Medal + 2017 SG service Medal
2nd place: $1,000,000 EcoDollars + Event Medal + 2017 SG service Medal
3rd place: $500,000 EcoDollars + Event Medal + 2017 SG service Medal
4th-10th place: $250,000 EcoDollars + Event Medal + 2017 SG service Medal

Prison Theme
- Brand new map by @jmichael214 <3!!!

[​IMG]
- Maps have been reduced from 4 to 1.

We have made the decision to drop the amount of SG maps on ECC from 4 to 1 due to player count and other factors. Having 4 maps made SG quite deserted, as well as encouraged boosting since it was quite easy. We've reduced the maps to just 1 so we can increase traffic and make boosting a little harder than before, specifically during this SG competition. We honestly think 1 map will simply work far better than the previous 4 with the current state of SG traffic, therefore...
A few VMR & Booklet changes to announce.

First, we have change the two VMR medals we have:

[​IMG]

Our Booklet medal is our very first rare animated forum medal & will be the only one of it's kind we offer :)

Next, our VMR achievement adjustment suggestions are now being accepted here.
The current achievement requirements are as such:
Custom Items
Code:
BARRIER: 10
BEDROCK: 10
CHORUS_PLANT: 10
COMMAND: 10
COMMAND_REPEATING: 10
COMMAND_CHAIN: 10
COMMAND_MINECART: 10
DRAGON_EGG: 1
ENDER_PORTAL_FRAME: 10
GRASS_PATH: 10
KNOWLEDGE_BOOK: 10
MOB_SPAWNER: 10
MONSTER_EGG: 10
SOIL: 10
STRUCTURE_BLOCK: 10
STRUCTURE_VOID: 10
All other items: 10,000

Achievements will eventually be trade-able for certain things on ECC.
We have yet to decide what this will be but we will definitely have a use for them.

And as promised, very shortly we will have an announcement regarding our new crate system for VMR so that you have a chance at getting those unobtainables for Booklet.
Congratulations to all our November voting winners!
