Just wanted to drop a note to say I've been working on plugins and such for update. Its a lot of work to get everything and redo the configurations and such. Then, I have a bunch of work to do on the map, populate chunks, and do more testing. Tedious and probably won't be done today, but I'm aiming to have it done by Thursday night.

Good, good! Looking forward for the next update(s)! Been pretty busy on vacation and catching up on school work so I haven't been online to much as I always do.
I'll be bringing the server down shortly. If the server is down, this is why.
Server specific Changes:
Map boundaries being expanded from 3072x3072 to 4000x4000.
New seed to spawn new content in expanded area.
Functionality changes:
Use /nc and /tc instead of /ncon and /tcon to get into your channels. /ncoff and /tcoff should still work.
Notes:
Communists of Synesthesia: I have to rename your country to CoS. You can rename it again if you'd like, but "CommunistsOfSynesthesia" is too large for the update of Towny to accept. It must be done.
I usually pre-populate the expanded area to reduce lag. I can't do that this time. Its just way too much. Consequently, if people are exploring, you may periodically experience a tiny bit of lag as entity tiles and new area is populated. I'm hoping not, but just preparing you for the possibility.
I still need to reconfigure the arena. With so much to do, I don't think that is going to be people's priority at the moment. I will get to it soon.
The MOTD and Help functions are tripping up a bit. I'm still working that out.
I need to do testing on my "Synesthesia Rifts" plugin before I make it live. They changed some base code in the game, so I need to rework some of the java.
Whats Next?:
I need to take down the server and crop the excess mess off the boundary of the map.
Update the live server with all of the files I updated and tested offline.
Test server with changes, live.
Leave another post indicating it is finished.
What should you do?
Back up your Bin folder.
Update Minecraft.
Back up that Bin folder to another separate backup.
Play!
How can you help me?
If you identify an exploit or bug, please discontinue performing that action and notify me via PM, so I can fix it.
I'll leave another post when the update is complete!
Woohoo! Can't wait for the server to be updated. Thanks for taking the time to update the server, Lucid!
ATTENTION SYNESTHESIA!
The Grand PVP Event in the Olympian Arena of New Aventine will happen sometime after Synesthesia updates to the most recent patch. A date for the event hasn't been concluded, but it will most likely happen within 1-2 weeks or so after the server updates. Rest assured, prizes for winning in the event will most definitely include rewards of thousands of Plat, diamonds, and more! Anyone can participate (by following the rules in the Arena of course), so get your teams assembled in preparation of this Grand Event!

Functionality changes:

You can also use /g for general and /l for local now!
Local speaks to others within 100 blocks.
