Welcome to the Big Sister Community! The server began as an alternate mirror server (or “sister” server) for Gunia’s Gulliver server circa October 2013. It ran the latest version of the Gulliver Mod for Minecraft v1.6.4 prior to 3rd of July 2017, which was when we decided to make a major decision to update the server to the latest vanilla Minecraft version. Our community is comprised of two servers:
o The stable, builder/survival-centric Big Sister server, which permanently runs the latest stable Spigot version, has a Dynmap at http://bigsister.mcserver.ws:8123/, a special plugin that shares the server chat with our Discord server, and can be accessed with the IP: bigsister.mcserver.ws
o The experimental Little Brother server, which changes mod flavors every month or two, it can be accessed at: littlebrother.mcserver.ws
Being whitelisted for one server automatically allows you to be whitelisted for the other server! If you wish to join us, please head down to the “How to join” section.
About the Server:
The Big Sister Server’s main world has been built up by countless players throughout its years in operation. From the biggest of mansions to the smallest of homes, you can find it all by exploring our vast world. We also have several minigames that players have built up for people to enjoy such as Spleef, Boat Racing, Jousting, and many more. While the main world never resets, there is another world on the server that resets with major world generation updates so that players can play in the latest terrain.
We also have somewhat of an economy on our server with Cheese. Cheese currency comes in three denominations: green cheese (emeralds), cheese (sponge), and blue cheese (lapis blocks). Cheese can be traded to villagers in the spawn mall to buy blocks for building.
We host many events throughout the year on both servers. Many of these celebrate holidays, both from real life and ones that were created on the server. we also host UHC (Ultra HardCore) events occasionally in which players have a chance to fight for prizes.
How to join:
So you want to join our community? Great! First make sure to read our welcoming document! It contains all kinds of information about our servers, please take a quick look before applying:
Then make sure that you have joined our Discord group! We find communication between our members super important! This way you won’t miss out on news, events, and more! Joining our Discord is a requirement, since we review applications there, and it is the hub for community announcements. Here are the current ways to join us:
Submit a Whitelisting Application in our Discord group
Request a live Whitelisting Interview in our Discord group
Submit a Whitelisting Application as a reply to this thread.
Questions? Ready for the whitelisting process? Or do you just want to take a peek at our Discord group? You can join us at:
The application for options one and three should answer the following questions and be submitted to staff in the Discord group’s application channel or this thread when ready.
1) What is your Minecraft username (or "IGN")?
2) Why you would like to join our Server?
3) How can you help to improve our server? Please be detailed, but write what you feel is necessary.
4) Please list several (at least 3) unique and memorable facts or traits about yourself that help you to stand out from other players.
5) What player responsibility do you feel is most important to a server?
6) In your opinion, what three qualities contribute to a good community member?
7) And finally, to confirm that you can read, please write down the date of when Big Sister went vanilla.
After some deliberation among the staff team, we have decided to also allow applications to be posted here. Discord will still be a requirement for joining, but if you would like to apply before joining the Discord, then just post your application as a reply to this thread.
Also, we are working on updating to 1.14.1 1.14.2, so the Dynmap and server may be down for a bit once it and Spigot are released.
Update (5/18/19): We have decided to wait for 1.14.2 due to some still glaring issues with the 1.14.1 release, primarily the disappearance of entities.
Due to the upcoming closing of the Minecraft Forum, we will not be accepting applications here anymore. If you are interested, please join our Discord group. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Farewell, Minecraft Forum, you will be missed by many.
In light of the decision to keep the Minecraft Forums in operation, we will once again be taking applications on this thread.
Another update on a previous announcement: we are still waiting to update to 1.14 until we fill the time is right in terms of vanilla and spigot stability. We are doing testing of that very thing on the Little Brother Server, and hope to update as soon as possible.
