HOOOSK

I hear this point value list is outdated.  Can we get an updated list please?

We'll look into it and see if we can get this to you within a few days.  I know we looked before, but nobody believed the numbers.  I'll try again.

 

Also just wondering, how do you make the design thingies for the challenges, they are very well done. 

 

Thanks, Ben. I do use Adobe Illustrator to make them.

Yay!  SOOOOO glad you're here.

It's that time of the month again: Time to vote for which challenge you would like to become permanent.

Since TheArrow won last month, it is now a permanent part of the Skyblock Challenges.  That also puts PaperMill and Recycled back into the polls.  See below if you need a refresher to remember what those challenges offered.

 

Remember: The winning challenge will be slightly nerfed.  We will be posting May's temporary challenges a day early (because Husker will be out of town next weekend) so get your votes in early!

 

IT'S HAX!

Judging is happening. Winners will be announced soon!

Welcome, Meg!

It's great to see your face around here again.

Wouldn't that be fun? I would stand at the last jump and hit people mid-jump.

I can't wait for hardcore buildcontest

Have my diamond armor and diamond sword....

 

/server hardcore

Is normal Survival too easy? Is being chased by 20 zombies too tranquil? Is death in Minecraft something you never have to think about? Is SkyBlock effortless? Then Hardcore is for you!

Hardcore is a PvP-enabled death ban server. What does that mean? Go survive as long as you can. When you die you are banned for 6 hours. PvP is enabled, so you must watch your back at all times! Also, hide your valuables because griefing is allowed on this Hardcore server!

We'll be periodically resetting this server, too. After all, it's not so hardcore once you have stacks of diamonds piled up, now is it?

Good luck and have fun!

[EDIT: After watching the fun go down this past weekend, bans have now been stretched to 90 minutes....Yes, 90 minutes instead of 24 hours. ]

Here they are again though =P

 

"a few challenges i think would be cool for a month would be

 

Aye!  Those are good, Neko!  I'm sad I missed them when creating April's challenges.  I will use your ideas to form May's challenges, for sure.

 

 

i so am going to farm pink wool for this

maybe we can name them something special

I will look into getting the technology (plugin fix) to name the wool we get so it can be more of a trophy than just a reward block. 

What if we coupled this with a plugin that captures a mob in an egg?

Then you can sell your spawn egg to the vendor?

We hope you enjoyed the temporary challenges we had in March (PaperMill, TheArrow, & Recycled). You voted and chose to keep TheArrow permanently. It's been slightly changed, but is now a permanent part of the Special challenges on Skyblock.

For April, we have 3 new temporary challenges:

We are also introducing something that will help you keep track of how many monthly challenges you finish. With each completion you also receive a pink wool. This item will change each month. Make a trophy room, show off your collection, brag about your pink wool, or just throw it off the edge. It's up to you.

Do you like April's challenges?

Are you happy TheArrow is here to stay?

Do you like the monthly extra item (April: pink wool) idea?

Let us know in the comments.

A human being

 

What is greater than God, More evil than the devil, The poor have it,

The rich don't need it, And if you eat it, you'll die?

Nothing

 

And please explain the human being one above?

 

Riddle:

 

I stare at you, you stare at me.

I have three eyes, yet cannot see.

Every time I blink, I give you commands.

You do as you're told, with your feet and hands.

What am I?

This isn't due to something that we've changed.  It has to be something within Minecraft itself.  We'll do some investigating.

Yeah, I was hoping the server was going to do something for April Fools:/ (sniffs) 

Me too.  We had planned to do something, but the timing was bad with our schedules. 

 

Also...glad you're not dead.

Just a head's up: Whichever challenge we decide to keep may need to be nerfed a tad. The special challenges are a little OP to give you incentive to complete them like crazy for the month they are up.

halo five 

 

Why do you have to make it difficult and make me spell out a number?

 

So, no "O".

 

This is for Nick and his Blizzard obsession:

 

Starcraft

 

Each month PickAxis Skyblock will get 3 new challenges.  For March we had PaperMill, TheArrow, and Recycled.  The challenges were a big hit and were completed a ton of times. 

 

I know you guys don't want to get rid of them quite yet, but at the same time you want more. MOAR!

 

Here's what we're going to do:

• At the end of each month, we'll vote to keep (or return) one of the temporary challenges and make it permanent.
• We will also add 3 new challenges at the beginning of each month.

The voting will allow you to bring back old temporary challenges, so don't fear if your favorite doesn't get chosen this time.  Rally for its return in the next month's poll.

 

So...what are you waiting for? Go vote to determine which challenge will become permanent on PickAxis Skyblock.

 

P.S. - If you have ideas for April's temp challenges, please post them below. Thanks!

 

Is this a free or paid rec software?

Pretty sure OBS is free.  I don't use it but I know others who swear by it.
