Parkour will be under maintenance in order to implement all the new changes. There will be another announcement soon about the relaunch. The server is being reset and relaunched, but we will keep the same spawn and nearly all the same courses.
Will the leaderboards be reset?
Yes, the leaderboards will be reset. The record times are still documented on forums, however.
Will my levels and progress be reset?
Yes. However, you can get more levels by playing courses with your friends!
What new changes are there?
Color coded course signs.
This has been a feature for a little while now, but course signs in the Easy, Norm, Hard, and Cray lobbies are now visible and are color coded based on their difficulty. Green are the easy courses, yellow are normal/intermediate, and red are harder courses. This is helpful for seeing the difficulty of a course within the Easy, Norm, Hard, and Cray difficulties.
Optional tutorial/training course.

Hi, all!
After quite a few months, it's time for the grand opening of Bedwars on The Sandlot! What better way to do this than by adding four new Bedwars maps?!
First up, we have StarWars, built by @WanderingLlama! When you're playing this map, you'll be transported straight into the world of Star Wars. Relax in the comfort of your very own TIE Fighter, but be wary of the Death Star when you're out gathering emeralds! Either way, you're guaranteed to have an out of this world experience when playing this map.
Next, we have OuttaWater, built by @RainbowRat2004! You won't believe what you're 'seaing' when you 'sea' this map. As soon as you step your fins on the sand of this map, you'll be transported under the sea and be playing Bedwars right next to a giant sea turtle! Swim your way to victory alongside seahorses in this awesome aquatic map.
Up next, we have ToriiGates, built by @sprainedd! When you join this map, the...

Hard Teams Event opening Saturday July 1 @Noon eastern time!
Hard will be closed Wednesday night in preparation for the opening of Hard Teams Event ON July 1 at noon eastern time. Hard will reset with a mostly Vanilla world (we reserve the right to include surprises), and four teams will compete to see which one can win the event!
Anyone can join, new players to Hard are welcome as this is the perfect time to join forces with experienced teammates and play on the Hard server. Player scores will be totalled for each team to determine the final placements at the end of July. More players = more scores for that team so recruiting could matter a lot here!
Please choose a Team by replying to this message. You may choose any team you want!
Team BigIronMouse - led by @big_doogle, @Ironstance, and @ElleMouse you can count on having a great time with these Hard server veterans leading...

Hello everyone!
I proposed some changes several years ago to the Adventure server, which you can read about here: https://www.sandlotminecraft.com/threads/adventure-discussion-feedback-requested.35706/
I am going to begin implementing these changes soon, and I need your help. One of the things I am planning on doing is "polishing" the Hogwarts map. What this means is that I need everyone who can help to go into Adventure and look for the following list of things, and posting either the coordinates and a description of what you found, or a screenshot with your F3 debug menu on so I can see the coordinates and what you are looking at:

- Monster spawner blocks
- Floating leaves or blocks that look out of place
- Blocks like stairs or chests that are sideways/backwards
- Broken signs or redstone devices
- Signs with typos on them
- Areas that seem like they should not be accessible
- Holes in the barrier/glass wall that shouldn't be there

We want to honor the hard work and achievements of those Sandlot players who are graduating this year. We are planning a celebration on Saturday, 3 June 2023, for all interested graduates.
Participant Criteria:
1. You are graduating this year (homeschool, public school, private school...) from your intermediate or senior level education program, or from post-secondary education.

In the spoiler are my best estimates of equivalencies for USA, Canada, UK, and Australia education programs. If you are graduating from your country's intermediate or senior education program, and want to participate, please let us know.

Hi everyone!
Our payment gateway, Tebex, has updated their platform, which is forcing us to change how we process VIP payments. I will go over what the changes are, the purpose of the new VIP+ package, what you will need to do if you are a current VIP, and answer any questions you may have.
Payments and Sales Tax/VAT
The biggest change is that payments will be processed directly through Tebex now, instead of through Paypal. It also means that you will now (unfortunately) be charged sales tax or VAT. Please note that you can still pay through Paypal, if you wish. You will be able to see all of your payment history, and cancel any recurring VIP subscriptions you have through Tebex now, instead of Paypal.
VIP+ Package
With this change, Tebex is taking a larger fee from your payment, meaning The Sandlot gets less (even though you are paying more, including the sales tax/VAT). I did not want to change the current VIP price, but with us getting a...
