The Sandlot - A Family-Friendly Minecraft Community

The Sandlot will be transferring to a new server on Friday. The server will be offline for a minimum of 1 hour, with the potential to go much longer if something goes wrong. All servers will be taken offline at 7 PM Pacific/8 PM Arizona/10 PM Eastern on Friday, Feb. 12.
With this new server, I am hoping that the performance will be improved slightly, and that we will experience fewer crashes. Our current hardware is the following:
Intel Xeon-E 2136 - 6c/12t - 3.3GHz/4.5GHz CPU
64 GB DDR4 ECC 2666 Mhz RAM
2x500 GB NVMe SSD
2x4 TB HDD SATA
Our new hardware is the following:
AMD Ryzen 7 3800X - 8c/16t - 3.9 GHz/4.5 GHz
128 GB DDR4 ECC 2666 Mhz RAM
2x960 GB NVMe SSD
2x4 TB HDD SATA
This will give us 2 extra CPU cores and a 600 MHz bump in non-turbo CPU clock speed, and a massive memory upgrade which is doubled to 128 GB.
I will update this thread when maintenance begins, as well as informing everyone in game, and I will update...

You're not going to want to miss out on the freshly reset, new and improved Parkour server on The Sandlot! Can you believe that the original Parkour server was released at the beginning of 2014, 7 years ago? We think you're gonna like what we've done with the place!

Something New:
- You will earn in-game money and levels from completing courses instead of items.
- Depending on what level "tier" you are, you will receive a corresponding rank. Bragging rights!
- As you level up, you will begin to unlock higher difficulties, like Easy, Norm, Hard, and Cray. Hover over your name to see your level and rank!
- A Parkour Shop has been added for you to buy blocks and materials with the money earned from courses.
- "Challenge Courses" have been added in every difficulty. They include...

LegoBoyo has worked diligently for almost 2 years on a new Hunger Games map, and it is our pleasure to release it tomorrow! To celebrate, everyone will be given access to use all HG kits for free, and LegoBoyo's map will be the only map in rotation for the day, so that everyone can get familiar with it and enjoy all the hard work he put into it!
There are tons of secrets and cool things to find, so make sure you explore everywhere!
I and other mods will be playing several games of HG starting at noon Pacific/1:00 pm Arizona/3:00 pm Eastern tomorrow, December 19th! I hope you can join us!
Thanks again @LegoBoyo for building an awesome map!

Hard Survival has been reset for December, and it has been made easier this month so that more people can enjoy the adventure there together! Make a snowman, have a snowball fight, open presents, and explore! Happy Holidays everyone!
Also, please give a special thanks to @trubuhl for this month's reset, as he did the troll's share of work on it! Thank you @trubuhl!
