Dirtblock is now live!
It appears that the creation of Skyblock on the Sandlot server caused an imbalance in the Universe. There was far too much sky, and not enough dirt... and now the Universe has corrected it. Trubuhl was the first one to stumble into this. His account is here:
So it turns out that Dirtblock is just like Skyblock - only with dirt! It's like Skyblock turned inside-out. It is a different kind of challenge. Players start in a small chamber in a huge chunk of dirt floating in the sky, and must use the few resources they are given to survive and thrive. There are lots of “challenges” which can be completed, and each challenge gives rewards which can assist you in improving your dirtblock island and carving out your own little paradise.
A couple of things you should know:
You must be on the latest version of Minecraft to join Dirtblock.

Maintenance will begin at approximately 9pm Arizona time.

All servers except the lobby will be unavailable for an indeterminate amount of time. We are going to be testing a new chat system (which some of you may remember from before). As many of you probably recall, a long time ago we were having major headaches with a "Proxy Kick" error. This error was caused by the new chat plugin. Now that some time has passed and that plugin has had multiple updates, and we are on 1.8+ across all servers, and we support name changes, I am hoping that those Proxy Kick errors will no longer happen. The only way I can test this is to take all servers offline, have everyone chat spam (the only time where you aren't breaking the rule!) in the lobby and see what happens. If...

I have updated all servers to support name changes, as well as being able to connect with 1.9 and 1.10 clients. I recommend that everyone update their profile in the Minecraft launcher to use 1.10.2 now (or just Use latest version).
If you have any issues with your name change, please post a bug report. Forum name changes are not supported yet.

The Sandlot will support name changes soon (most likely sometime this week). This is a Very Big Deal. I recommend you read this post, then read it again so you understand just how big of a deal it is.
Why should I care?
As I'm sure you know by now, Mojang (the creators of Minecraft) have allowed players to change their Minecraft name. You can change it once every 30 days, with an additional 7 day grace period where your name cannot be used by anyone else if you want to change it back.
Names used to be the unique "key" that unlocked all of your data on every Multiplayer server you've ever used, including The Sandlot. It's what kept track of your claims, your plots, your locked chests, shops, stats in PvP games, balances, enderchest contents, your sethomes, job stats, and the list goes on and on. Basically it's everything that makes you you, as far as Minecraft goes.
I have been working hard on updating all of our old plugins that used to store...

A lot has happened since I went on vacation. There are many plugin updates that need to be performed.
All servers will be offline for 30 minutes or less tonight. Other updates will be performed server by server, and I will do my best to minimize downtime and not disrupt anyone's Sandlot play time.
Thanks for your patience and understanding.

I am planning on doing some maintenance tonight, in about 12 hours or so from this post.
I probably won't be able to complete everything, but my main goals are:
I probably won't be able to complete everything, but my main goals are:
- Remove the HorseKeep plugin on SVS and Easy (no more teleporting horses! ).
- Update LWC to protect all door types as well as armor stands and minecarts with chests and hoppers
- See if I can figure out the problem with the nether fortress in Easy nether spawn
- Update Build Battle to a new version
- Remove the flower pot kit from Hide and Seek (does anyone even play this game anymore?)
- Try to fix lingering bugs with Jobs in Easy

Hooray! I performed all the same updates in Easy that I did for Semi-Vanilla, except for plugins we don't use like cooldowns or chest shops. I have taken a full backup of Easy, so let me know ASAP if there are any issues!
