    MINERUN

    What is a "Minerun"?

    A minerun is a type of server event in which you mine in a PvP environment. Users that wish to participate are TP'ed to a flat platform where they can prepare a base if they want. After a given period of time the host will than enable PvP while also changing what ore/precious block (iron blocks, gold blocks, diamond blocks, etc) the platform is made out off. Players will then battle it out while also trying to gather as many resources as they can before it's over.


    Strategies/Techniques
    1. Protect the miner
    • Get a friend (RIP loners)
    • Have one of you focus on mining
    • Other person focus on protecting the person mining
    Works when done with more people (3 Miners, 3 Defenders)


    2. The 3point
    • Don't team with anyone
    • Find the largest group of people
    • Activate serrated strikes/skull splitter
    • Laugh as they try and run
    • Pick up loot
    • Repeat
    WARNING: MUST BE 3POINT OR THIS WILL FAIL MISERABLY


    3. The Baby
    • Avoid everyone/fighing
    • Mine
    • Tp out when someone looks at you
    I don't like you people -Riku


    4. The spectator
    • Vanish
    LAAAAAAAAAAAME


    5. The try-hard clan that's wanted a minerun for a really long time and are freaking out that there is finally one.
    • Thank host in chat lots of time, this includes shouts and pm's
    • Make sure all your clan members are online
    • Call out targets
    • 5v1 the target
    • Repeats steps 3 and 4
    ...minerun is lyfe


    8. The Mole
    • Go to bottom layer of platform
    • Sneak
    • Proceed to mine everything without ever being seen
    BORIINGGGGG


    7. The average steve
    • Get a few friends
    • PvP a bit
    • Mine a bit
    "A" for effort

    You forgot the "Unfair person who knows how the minerun works really well"
    Digs under the area, and then proceeds to get an e7 and be happily mining their way about in vanish :}

    Vanish is allowed during a minerun? :eek:
    *Tries to find out when the next minerun is to get investigator before*

    You can't break blocks while vanished, that's why I didn't put exactly that in the strategies/techniques. You can however vanish whenever someone is near you then un-vanish when they leave etc, or just crouch on the bottom layer

    This is an awesome explanation of the "minerun". Unfortunately, I would have to be in either the 3. Baby or 4. Spectator class (a simple search for my sg stats will explain everything :p)
    I personally would be interested in the @riku1301 method - possibly 6.? Riku and/or his team take AdmiralD on a minerun and let him be the decoy of death and are understanding when he dies :D

    If i had investigator i would be the spectator but i dont so I am personally the one who waits until some1 is almost done mining and then just slays them. All i need is a wood sword xD cause im sure if their a miner and i sneak up on them the strength 2 will help me out. But you forgot that the specator can mine if he uses invis pots :D then all he would do is win!

    One problem with the invis theory: 3point and other PvPers SG. To our dismay, invis isn't so invis after all xD Heck, if you get one shot in SG, you would get shot to the stars in Minerun with SharpV and Strength II lol.

    I guess if I ever get on a minerun I will either be the baby or the mole. I hate pvp'ing when there is something to lose. Also no way I will get friends. SPLIT with them? Hell no!
