The time has come to say farewell to the current Skyblock map, with a grand reopening on May 29th at 12:00 pm noon EDT!
There will be a separate announcement thread with details on the new Skyblock, but here is what you need to know for now.
Is the map being reset?
Yes.
So, I'm going to lose my items and my island?
Yes.
What Minecraft version will the new Skyblock be using?
1.16.5.
Will I be able to download the current map to play in single player?
Yes. I would recommend putting all your inventory items into a chest on your island before the reset, since player inventories will be wiped in the map download.
Will there be a farewell party for the current Skyblock?
Yes! I will host a livestream to say goodbye on May 22nd at 4 pm EDT. You can watch here: https://www.sandlotminecraft.com/pages/live/
When, exactly, will current Skyblock be closed?

Hey Sandlot!
Our awesome Sandlot Helpers created a special event for the month of April. You can play this event whenever you want this month. Look behind the Normal portal in the lobby for our Special Events hallway.

For those intrepid players who love a challenge, we have a special treat for you. In a limited-time appearance, the Killer Bunnies have returned. Collect your enchanted wooden sword at Bunny Village and show those Killer Bunnies who is boss in the Arena!

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...
