Happy Cinco de Mayo! 

Come and check out the dancing taco on VT in the holiday area (-330, 110)  or /warp holiday on SVT.  While you're there, grab a free shulker of themed goods including a flaming cactus trophy!

Happy Earth Day!

Go outdoors and touch some of those green things today! 

When you've had enough of that, grab 1 sapling of each tree type (acacia, birch, dark oak, jungle, oak, & spruce) and bring them to the holiday area (-290, 115) on VT or /warp holiday on SVT to get a trophy!

Place 1 of each sapling into the labeled barrels and then take your trophy from the chest.  You must put 1 of all 6 of the saplings in order to take a trophy.   One trophy per person.  Everyone must pick up their own.  You have until 4/28 at 8pm EDT to get yours. 

Happy Easter Vanilla Tyme!

The Easter Bunny has left a basket full of goodies at the top of the Easter build on both VT (xyz) and SVT (/warp holiday)!  He has also hidden 16 eggs on both VT (in the holiday area) and on SVT (at spawn). 

You will find your shulker of gifts, plus an empty shulker for the egg hunt, at -486 86 164 on VT and /warp holiday on SVT.  Follow the path into the build and take the carrot elevator up to the top!

For the hunt, there are a total of 16 eggs to find.  You will know you've found an egg when you spot a colored shulker with a sign: "Easter Egg Hunt".  Please ONLY TAKE AN EGG FROM SHULKERS THAT ARE MARKED WITH THIS SIGN!  You may only take 1 egg from each shulker. To help you keep track of what you’ve found, each shulker is 1 of the 16 shulker colors and each egg is named that color.

BE CAREFUL NOT TO THROW YOUR EGGS AS THEY ARE VERY FRAGILE AND IRREPLACEABLE! (Pro Tip: Don’t put any eggs on your hotbar)

Look high and low for the hidden eggs.  You MAY need elytra/scaffolding and some respiration to assist in your search. 

Once you have found the hidden eggs, you can use them to purchase GREAT items in the Easter Egg Shop!  This shop is located inside of the Easter Bunny build.  The secret entrance can be found by dropping down through one of the carrots on the build.  To find it turn right when you exit the carrot elevator.  Up for purchase are things like elytra, beacons, netherite and even staff collectibles! 

*please note that the worker bunnies are still hard at work stocking the Egg Shop.  It will be open in the next 24 hours*

To trade in your eggs for prizes:

• Decide which items you want and what you have enough eggs for
• 1 point items can be purchased by swapping the egg for the item directly in the barrels at the Easter Egg Shop (inside the bunny build)
• For higher point items (4, 8, 12, 15, 16), you first need to take a ticket from the chest/barrel for each of the items you wish to purchase.  Then, the ticket(s) and the correct total amount of egg points must be placed in a barrel in the Egg Trade Room.  Place a sign on the front with your name and the date you are turning in your eggs.
• Please be patient and the Easter Bunny will fill your order! 
• If you find that there are no empty barrels when you are ready to purchase, please post in support on discord.

Bunny Quest

As easter approaches the easter bunny is busy preparing for an egg hunt.  He needs help collecting and decorating eggs to hide.  The more eggs the local bunny helpers help him collect the more eggs he can hide for the grand easter event.  But beware that bunny hunting season is coming up as well and the hunters are gathering materials and planning their annual hunt.

Will the Easter bunny have enough eggs to hide, or will the hunters hunt all the bunnies before they can collect their materials?

Will you choose to help the bunnies or the hunters?  Maybe you want to help both? 

Here’s what you’ll need if you want to help the bunnies:

• Carrots and gold nuggets so that the bunnies can make special golden covered carrots
• Wooden Hoe and bonemeal so the bunnies can plant extra carrots
• Egg Dying Kits: Dye and a water bucket 
  • Yellow
  • Lime
  • Purple
  • Pink
  • Light Blue
• Various eggs and candy for hiding:
  • Eggs and chocolate candy (coco beans)
  • Turtle eggs and white chocolate candy (pumpkin seeds)
• Potion of leaping for maximum bunny productivity
• Golden Apple Snacks for working bunnies

Here’s what you’ll need to help the hunters prepare:

• Hunting gear:
  • Bow and arrows
  • crossbow and spectral arrows
• Rabbit trap: Carrot on a stick and lava bucket
• Leather hunting armor:
  • cap and orange dye
  • tunic and green dye
  • leggings and blue dye
  • boots and brown dye
• Golden apples so that the hunters can keep their energy up
• Bring the following from your solo bunny hunting expeditions to prove you’re worthy to join the hunters: 
  • rabbit’s hide
  • rabbit’s foot
  • rabbit stew 

Collect items and bring them to -470, 155 in the holiday area on VT (southwest of the holiday portal) and /or warp holiday on SVT (coming soon).  Trade your items with the helper or the hunter to help them prepare.  For each trade you make, you’ll earn a helper or hunter voucher. 

To be rewarded for your help:

• Rename your vouchers to say your IGN (the lore lines will remain the same). Tip: to help you save levels, collect up to a stack before renaming them.
• Everyone that submits at least 16 vouchers will receive a trophy.
• For every 32 vouchers of each trade type, you will receive 1 entry into the grand prize drawing. You can get a maximum of 2 entries (64 vouchers worth) of each type and up to 22 entries if you submit 64 vouchers for each of the 11 trade types.

Example: 

I trade enough golden apples to get 32 vouchers, then rename and submit them.  I will get 1 entry into the drawing.

If I trade enough golden apples and leather hunting caps to get 64 vouchers from each, I will get 4 entries into the grand prize drawing. 

• After the conclusion of the event, we will have a drawing from each side: the helpers and the hunters. The winner will get a collectible of their choice!
