    Hey Minetimers!

    This thread is being created to update you on the status of two gamemodes on our network and to inform you on the plans of the future of these gamemodes on Minetime. Infection and Skywars have both been a part of the server since 2013, both being unique and popular to the server. Over time, both plugins have aged without being updated, leaving many bugs, glitches and other exploits - Deadlife, our infection plugin was last updated in late 2014. Likewise, the Skywars plugin has never been updated since it being released in 2013 - it is severely out of date.

    With Minetime’s 5th Anniversary coming June 1st, 2018 - I would like to announce the Administrator’s plans for the future of Minigames on the Minetime Network. With it being the 5th anniversary, and with the concept of ‘minigames’ being something that has always been brought up time and time again on Minetime but always being delayed, we intend to release these gamemodes in June 2018, in addition to possibly other minigame games.

    Setting this date will allow us to properly test and refine these gamemodes to ensure that when they are released, they will bring purely new and unique content to the network. As always, we appreciate the feedback we receive from the community - we encourage everyone to leave their suggestions in the Feedback & Suggestions section of the Forums. In addition to this, we will likely be creating Feedback forms so that we can get specific feedback from the community on particular features - your participation in these forms is much appreciated.

    I hope that this clears up the status of these two gamemodes - and I hope that the wait and the eventual release will be something that we can all hype up for.

    Regards,
    The Minetime Administrators

    Cool stuff, planning on releasing them at the same time or one at the time?

    Nice. It's been ages since i've been on the forums, but does anyone remember the desert map and the e chest was used to get op bows as human and rekt everyone and also when people would fly of the map or get onto the trees on haunted or get on top of the towers on the map i for got the name to (like the one that was made of mycelium and had spots under the lava) and there was so many other things. I also have some screenshots from way back like when there was a staff vs players on skywars. It's really cool to see how the server is going now.

    Omg I found my older Forums account O:. I think I had been playing longer then when this account was made. I think I joined the server in about 2015 or late 2014.

    God what ever they do, don’t let you decide on kits/items/rewards. I think your chance for that got ruined when prestige’s can into prison.

    I'm quite hyped for minetime to have up infection and skyways again! Introducing mini games might revive the server or kill it more but I'm excited for them either way. Hopefully infection will bring back some of the old community and hopefully this means hunger games will be back in the near future of minetime!

    Thanks to all the staff/administrators/members that are helping make and test these new gamemodes!

    Can't wait for infection :), If you need any help please be sure to whitelist me, I've found many bugs in the past. Most of them made the game better though, and would tremendously love the idea o map-jumping to be also kept. Since i have been playing infection since 2013, I would really love to contribute in setting up and helping. Also Bman, your idea of adding a guild/squad plugin would be very much appreciated, the idea is honestly great, thanks.

    That guy could be a little kid, vulnerable or disabled you can't just assume that they are not and decide to be rude to them online. Being a idiot to someone because you find them ''cringe'' isn't the way to go about it, just ignore the message and go on. Also I don't need to be a moderator to tell you to be nice to people, and all this guy was trying to do was be nice, it was not negative towards you or anyone else, in fact he just wants to play infection and I can understand that. All your doing here is being childish, more so then he is.

    If you want to talk about this more continue it in pm, because this is going of topic from the original thread.
