At a distant Nioavellir Nether science station platform, tremors of up to 20n on the Notches Scale were recorded. Scientists in Nioavellir were able to adjust their remote viewing devices to capture scenes such as the following, before the entire platform crumbled in to the lava below. They believe that a hither-to unknown dimension has broken through, though how and why, they are not sure. They believe what may be giant obsidian deposits have collapsed through the veil of the nether in to the delicate eco-system below.

The Ghast Protection League is calling for all travel to nether to be cancelled due to fears that increased exploration by miners; science trips; and adventure tourism will result in the unecessary disruption and even death of the Nethers' principal predator.

Meanwhile, analysts in the Uamh Steall Na Burich Science Lab from Aesir are focussing their attention on the strange glow emanating from what was once the Roof of the Nether. They estimate a glow of such magnitude could only be caused by a glowstone deposit measuring in hundreds of cubic metres.

Fortunately, no one was injured during the incident. Travellers in the Nioavellir nether are advised to take extra precaution particularly when mining glowstone or collecting netherwart near the upper reaches of the Nether. You are encouraged to return immediately to the overworld at the first sign of new tremors.

Thanks to the participants of the Mob Arena Competition. We liked all the entries, but here are our three favourites. They are now live Arenas and you can join each one with the command above them. However, you must have an empty inventory before you can join. You are not allowed to spectate - use "/ma leave" to get out of the exit lobby.

/ma j Arena1



/ma j Arena2



/ma j Arena3



We use GarbageMule's minecraft bukkit plugin MobArena

Sorry about no sound I had a hard enough time making it.

There is a New Mob Arena contest under way.


These should be created in the creative world with warps.

Rules.

-Must have spawn areas marked with signs
-Theme class selection room not required, and will not hurt your score, but nice
-Needs at least roof of glass for spectators and glitch protection
- Next Tuesday Next Monday/Tuesday will be the judging ( Why Tuesday? Well i wanted to give people a week and Mondays Mak and I won't be able to discuss/view)

Warps/coords go here.


Mak and I are judging and we do not want to see anything until its over.



Here are some rules of thumbs from the last mob arena competition we had:

- Players shouldn't be able to hide from the monsters
- If the arena is too big and the monsters spawn too far away from players, they won't attack the players until they go near them
- There can be multiple spawn points in the arena for monsters

Mob Arena has returned and is being tested. There are a few things that you as a player need to know.

When you are done /ma leave has to be completed. Other than that good luck and watch out behind you.

Generated using custom settings on the WEDGE 1.2.5 terrain generator. Coming Soon™ to RagnaCraft - a 2000*2000*256 WEDGE minecraft Survival Multi-Player map.

With a New chat plugin which needs work. So please excuse the mess as I work out all the kinks.
