The Sandlot - A Family-Friendly Minecraft Community

Hello everyone!

The last few weeks, @_Onion and some other helpers have been preparing a new activity in Easy Survival for this spring/summer... a scavenger hunt! For this scavenger hunt, 20 different block-themed 5x5 squares have been hidden around the Easy Survival map. If you can find them, you will be rewarded with some rare prizes! You'll be able to find a "SANDLOT" banner set (picture below), diamonds, emeralds, beehives, and more!



But, you won't be left to find these prizes with nothing! We will be provide you some hints, which are listed below.

Netherrack: Lives near desert spawn on a patch of ice.
Magma Block: Resides in the dark forest near swamp spawn.
Pumpkin: Is ice skating north of Icy Spawn.
End Block: Resides on a remote island off of the east road.
Soulsand: Is mining terracotta south of Mesa Spawn.
Sand: Lives on the outskirts of Spawn,
Quartz:...

Starting this Saturday, May 16 at 10:00 AM Pacific/1:00 PM Eastern, there will be a community led tournament in Hunger Games! To celebrate this tournament, all Hunger Games kits will be free to use for the whole weekend! In addition, the shop will be disabled for the duration of the tournament.

The tournament is being led by @MCOnion, so any questions should be directed to them. Here is how he has informed me that it will work.

Bracket Structure

For the first round, everyone will be able to play. Then, half of the players will move onto the next round. This will be determined by first the number of kills a player has, and then if there are more spots, whoever stayed in the longest. This discourages hiding the whole game while still rewards some players who are able to hide out for a long time. Near the end of the bracket, there may be more than half of the players who move on as games must have at least 4 players to start.

MCOnion will stay...

Sandlot Community,

We revised our policies regarding the posting of Photos, Videos, and YouTube Channels. The existing threads were locked and removed from public view.

Effective immediately, no photos or YouTube channels may be published on The Sandlot. Videos must conform to the requirements at the bottom of this post.

We discussed this issue among the Moderator Staff for an extended time. We believe that these are the best decisions for our community. Following are some of our reasons for these decisions.

Personal Photos: These are photos which show the real-life human behind the keyboard, as well as pets, gardens, cars, art projects, etc. Our reasons for prohibiting these photos relate to hazards associated with social media. The Sandlot forums are a type of social media. Additionally, we believe that providing a repository of player photos is incompatible with our online safety ethos.

• We have no way to know if parents approve of these photos or their...

Head into Skywars to find tridents and crossbows on the latest Minecraft 1.15.2, and enjoy 2 new maps--Colosseum and Fortress--built by our very own @RatMazeMind!

Have fun!

Happy Easter from The Sandlot! We hope you all have a great holiday with you and yours.

We have prepared a little something for all of you playing in our new Easy Survival server... a scavenger hunt! All of the Moderators have been scattered around the Easy Map... if you can find them, you will be rewarded for your efforts and receive the Moderator's Minecraft head! Here is a picture of what you will be looking for:



Of course, we won't leave you to traverse the whole map with nothing! Below are clues for each Moderator. (These can also be found in-game at Easy Spawn.)

Wolves dwell in the taiga... Abbz05 dwells near Taiga Spawn...
adminidad dwells in the snowy taiga near Mesa Spawn…
BareClawz hides in the final mesa biome on the map…
BellStar runs the West Spawn road, stops at the first Extreme Hills on the right…
bizarr0 sets up shop at a desert biome parallel to Mesa Spawn…
Blokjekopf hides in...

Get your bows, crossbows, and tridents ready! We are going to open up The End resource world tomorrow at 10:00 AM Pacific for our very first Enderdragon fight!

Also, the fun doesn't stop there, because after the Enderdragon fight, we will be fighting 100 withers in a custom built arena made by a whole bunch of players!

I will not be providing milk, so please don't come to me with an empty bucket...

Enjoy, and please post any bugs you find in the Bug Report forum. Thanks and have fun with the pandas and bees!

Hello everyone,

The server ran into an issue last night and I have been performing some emergency maintenance today because of it. I believe I have everything restored properly, but please check your inventories, claims, and chest protections on Normal Survival, Hard Survival, and Skyblock. Please let me know if you see anything out of the ordinary, and I apologize for any inconvenience this causes.

Hi everyone! We are less than a week away from the grand re-opening of our Easy Survival server! I am creating this thread to inform you of some things I am certain everyone will be asking (or has already asked) about the new server. Please read this over so you have a leg up on what to expect for the re-opening.

If you have any questions I didn't cover here, ask away and I will do my best to answer you.

What Minecraft version will the new Easy Survival use?

1.15.2.

Does that mean I have to connect to The Sandlot with Minecraft 1.15.2?

Yes.

Will the doors be weird?

In all the other servers, for now, yes. But in Easy, the doors will be non-weird. We still recommend using Minecraft 1.12.2 when playing on other servers on The Sandlot.

Will there be a jobs system like old Easy?

Yes.

Will there be a mall with shops where we can buy stuff?

Yes.

Will the mall sell EVERYTHING?

No,...
