With Confined season 3 coming to a close I thought we could try something difference, almost an opposite of Confined, something I would like to call "The Worlds Biggest Skyblock" or TWBS. Not sure if its been done before but the idea of this server will be to let as many players as we can in to the original sky block world. We will tweak it a bit, having players join with the contents of a chest + the blocks the blocks the original island is made of.
PvP will be disabled and griefing, stealing and sabotage (Throwing away precious items) will be against the rules and if repeated will be bannable.
I'll run a few plugins like LWC and maybe griefprotection to protect a claim. CoreProtect to rollback any forms of griefing and stealing. We have a few good plugins from Confined that we wouldn't mind implementing. PhatLoots is one. It can be used to add extra drops to mobs, however it will go against vanilla skyblock so we'll leave that up to the players to decide. If you have any plugin suggestions leave it below!
My ideas for rules:
[1] No griefing
[2] No stealing
[3] No sabotage (Throwing away items, and killing players by spleefing and lava bucketing)
[4] No hacking or modding, except optifine
[5] No harrasment of any kind
If you have ideas to change these rules let me know!
If we get enough responses I'll aim to have the server up in 1-3 weeks. Leave your minecraft ign below and I'll whitelist you in advance!
Ok, leading up until 10am Sunday AEST the server will be open while we test things. So join if you would like to test your connection and if you're whitelisted.
Is there an IP? I might just be missing it, or am I reading your comment wrong and it will be open on Sunday?
The ip is: unmapped.spartanhost.net
The server is currently running another unique gamemode, Confined Survival. The server will be going down soon so I can mess around with plugins and such. When I get it ready I'll leave it open and the game will oficialy start 10am Sunday Australian Eastern Standard Time.
The title actually gave me an idea. Using command blocks, you could theoretically have a randomly generated bunch of islands, kind of like skygrid but with sky islands.

I don't mean to speak out of my place, but I think that balance is the only major problem surrounding this server. Randomly generated islands sounds great, but if they're all full of chests that have starting items in them, the importance of major items such as lava buckets will soon plummet.

Yeah, I'm not too sure how an instant water source at the beginning will work, should I make just one lava bucket and ice at the start?
Hey all! Feel free to help me shape this server it will be greatly appreciated!
After some bored thinking I had an idea, I have been running a server called Confined Survival,
(More info here: http://www.minecraftforum.net/forums/servers/pc-servers/2469240-minecraft-social-experiement-unique-gamemode-pvp) Confined Survival pits players against each other in a rush to win the game by being the most powerful clan in a limited world. Players struggle over limited resources and must fight or trade carefully if they want to win.

Hey DaPinkPowerRanger,
So it's going to be a completely peaceful server, right? Please whitelist me: DarthIgius. Thanks in advance!
I will have mobs on but no PvP.
I'll upload some pictures of the modifications I've made to the map later today.
The server will probably be launched around 8-10am 2nd of August AEST.
Great Idea.

This is the main island that you will spawn on, there are other islands scattered around the world to be explored!
