Good advice!  Thank you!
 
I will try to include a poppy one for August and a super hard one with a great reward.

Hey
 
Intro to me

Your definition of torture and mine are veeerrryy different.

skygrid skygrid skygrid
i have big plans MUAHAHAH
 

I can promise you that this is a much better place than some. Don't dwell on the past like some; look to the future! The future of Skyblock and the new Skygrid  

So I took a visit to creative to work on some ideas.... little did I know what was to come! 
 
I visited a plot belonging to a couple of new players... MisterStick and UmegaPanda, and found a stage, instantly recognisable as Britatin/america's got talent. 
 
Pin came over to help judge and we got a performance of Lady Gaga (including the meat outfit!)
 
It was really awesome so wanted to share it here
 
 

 
 
Glad to say that MisterStick and UmegaPanda have now also joined skyblock - Welcome to our community

YasssYasssYasssYasssYasssYasss, welcome Clare 2.0

Yas yas yas yas. I teach you to play Skygrid here. I achieved my only goal over there so I can leave now. Baltop 1. So. I'm happy. And ready to go. And join all my old friends here and stick around

This party has just become even more epic! 
Thank you for choosing to come! Looking forward to seeing you there.Remember, even if you or friends haven't played skyblock before, this is a good way to get a good head start

Yay Ender!! So happy you're here now!  <33
 
Again, I'm very sorry for what you've been going through, but hopefully it's for the best. I'll see you on Skyblock and then Skygrid  

Hi Clare and welcome to your own account!! Glad to see you have your own alter ego now. And it will be convenient to know who is who right off  

So with huge huge thanks to Husker and Nick, I now have my own account!! So now nobody needs to ask "Which one is it?" And Zach no longer needs to check the time to see who it is! 
 
Both myself and Marc have talked about getting separate accounts since he decided to concentrate on survival, whereas I prefer Skyblock. We will still work together on the island... but that is my baby!!
 
For anyone that doesn't know, I'm Clare, I'm from the UK and can be found on the Skyblock server most days. Always here to help where I can and always up for a chat. (typing that is... not quite over my phobia of talking using my mouth!!)
 
I can confirm that this has not changed my actual relationship with the almighty ZTolerance... Just means we might use the the server to actually talk to each other

I can't wait for Skygrid, been waiting forever... I've been getting tortured on skyblock.

we have an abundance of carrots, string, gunpowder, bones, potatoes, wheat, stonebricks, stone, cactus and poppies... never ending poppies...
 
I wouldnt mind seeing a Quartz challenge or a super hard wither head challenge with some awesome reward
 
want challenges that take alot of work, we did all but two and they are island level ones.

Hey guys,
 
in a bid to get more blaze rods to power my furnaces, and after deciding that building a blaze farm would be a massive pain, I have built an enderman farm in the end.
 
Look west from spawn and you will see it.
 
This is free for anyone to use so please don't break it.
 
Why do you need an enderman farm??
 
 1. enderpearls are get you from a-b pretty quick. 
 2. Do the pearl collector challenge for gold and blaze rods plus 20xp and $20 on repeated challenges
 3. Get XP!
 
The farm will be gone when there is a reset, but if it is popular it can be rebuilt 
 
Don't forget your sword!
 
Clare
 

So I've been in a major art block lately, so I doodled this really quick. Hopefully they're be more of these to come!

That's great to hear, especially since that's the kind of server I've been looking for!
And don't I know that being sick sucks D:
Thanks for the welcome! <3
 
Thanks for the welcome! <3
I think my favourite game mode has to be survival, but I do like pretty much every other game mode too
 
EDIT:
  Wow, you posted just before I posted my response to the other two, so I didn't see it! xD (Don't want to double post, so I'll edit this in :3)
I'm personally in GMT/BST, but I tend to play at odd times throughout the day, depending on how bored of life I am xD
Hope to see you around!

Well hey there! I'm Lilabounce, a teenager from the UK, who joined this server... Today! (And by joined, I mean I logged on for like 10 minutes to have a look around xD)
 
I found this place whilst looking for a new server to play on, and I'm quite impressed!
As I said, I was only on for about 10 minutes, and though there were very few people online, I still had some people welcome me to the server! (Which is more than I can say for most servers )
 
I'm hoping to become quite active on this server, as I may have finally found the right server for me!
 
I'll probably hop back online again later, and I hope to see some more friendly faces!
 
A bit about me now, I guess:
 
I LOVE video games! (I'm mainly a pc gamer, but I do play on console as well)
I pretty much live on the internet, as I've been off school for a while with various illnesses. (Before anyone comments on this: No, I'm not going to die or anything, I'm just not a particularly well person :/)
My favourite genres for anything are fantasy and sci-fi.
Oh yeah! And since I haven't mentioned it yet, I'm a girl
 
I think I've covered all of the basics...
Sooo...
 
Yeah! Thanks for reading, and I hope to see you in game soon! <3

We are experiencing lots of new players joining Skyblock, but after one question they leave and never come back
 
"Can I join someone's island?"
 
After a chorus of "sorry, no" throughout chat, the new player leaves, never to be seen on Skyblock again. 
 
This is not good, the more players on Skyblock the more fun, so we all want to keep these players around. So here are my suggestions...
 
New Players:
 
If you are new to the server and want to join someone's island just ask in chat. If everyone says no then post on this thread, tell us a bit about yourself and hopefully we can find you an island to join. 
Alternatively you could pair with someone else who doesn't want to play alone and start a new island together.
If there is nobody you pair up with then why not start an island and when someone new wants to join, they can do. If you need any help don't hesitate to ask.
 
Existing players:
 
If you want new players to join your island have a look on this thread, (hopefully) there will be a list of players that you could invite to your island. 
If you do not want a new player to join your island, when they ask on chat, explain politely that you don't want to share your island, and then link them to this post.
 
Hopefully we can get new players to stay longer. If you have asked the question and everyone has said no, please please don't think it is because players are unfriendly, we are a really friendly bunch, it is just a lot of players prefer to work on their island alone. 
 
I hope our Skyblock community can increase
 
Clare

We hope you enjoyed the temporary challenges we had in June (Seamstress, BottleCollector, GoGreen). You voted and chose to resurrect the SandStorm challenge (from April) permanently. It's been slightly changed, but is now a permanent part of the Special challenges on Skyblock.
For July, we have 3 new temporary challenges:

Do you like July's challenges?
Are you happy SandStorm is back?
Have ideas for August's challenges?
Let us know in the comments.
