Minecraft minigame server created by enthusiasts in Shetland - Seeking players for testing, and possibly moderators and helpers.

[BashyBashy]

Hi,

I fully realise this is a bit of a long shot, and I hope you don't mind me posting this here, but are there any Minecraft enthusiasts out there willing to come and help us test a java Minecraft minigame server we have been creating, by simply coming for a game and giving us some feedback?  Our team is 100% based in Shetland, and we would like to "seed" our server with a few kind people at the outset.  Shetland seems like a good place to start. 

We started working on creating a minigame server because we felt that most of the servers out there are either far too toxic, and/or full of hackers/cheats.  We want to create a safer, fairer and more positive space for youngsters to enjoy online.  Also since the Hive closed down their java server in 2021 there are hardly any European java servers doing minigames for v1.8 onward, and the high latency ("ping") to the servers in the USA puts folk from here at a disadvantage.

It's for the Java version only (for PC / Mac), unfortunately we are not going to do cross-platform for the Bedrock version like many other servers, because doing so would render our automated anticheat system almost completely useless.  So it can't accept players on consoles or mobile, who run Bedrock.  Sorry!  On the upside if you have a Bedrock MC account then you also automatically have free access to a java account, albeit you need a PC to access it.

Key points:

• Access to the server is completely free.  It will never be put behind a paywall.
• We want our server to be safe, kind, non-toxic, child-friendly, and fun!
• Zero-tolerance of hackers, cheats & toxicity. A safe-haven for newer players.
• Server managed by enthusiasts from Shetland.
• Excellent anticheat.  Less-skilled players are given "encouragement" kits.
• Karma system gives in-game advantage to players who are kind, to help prevent toxicity.
• Game modes are all unique to our server and have been made from scratch.  They include:  Bedwars, Assault Course, Full Iron Armour, Survival multiplayer (SMP).

If you're interested, you can find more details at our website:  https://bashybashy.com/ 

We have not launched yet, but hope to do so shortly.  If you're keen to join in, or even to help in some way, please either reply to this post, or join our discord server and post there.  A link to our discord:  https://discord.gg/fMvutrvTk5

Hope some of you can come join us for a game some time!  Cheers.

Hi again, further to the previous post.  We've gathered a handful of regular players, quite a few from Shetland, and have been continuing to work on the server. 

We've recently added a new game mode, "Fiend Fight", where you battle waves of monsters.  It's a fun, chaotic adrenaline-fuelled bit of nonsense.   Here's a video showing some of the gameplay:  

The server's still not particularly busy yet, but we're hoping to do a bit of a marketing push again really soon.  Hope to see some of you at the server!

Cheers!
