Events are what the server does when everybody is online at once.
The space mine
The space mine is the one people turn up for. It opens a custom mine in the End: a mine that is not on the A to Z ladder, with blocks that are not in the ordinary rotation, and it is only there while the event runs. Everybody can reach it no matter what letter they are on, which makes it one of the few places where a Mine C player and a prestige 40 player mine the same floor.
When the event ends the mine closes and the End goes back to being empty.
The rest of the calendar
- KOTH, which takes over the capture point at the PvP warp and pays whoever holds it.
- Boss spawns, which put one fight in front of the whole server.
- Seasonal events, which bring their own crates, cosmetics and tags for as long as that season runs.
- Drop parties and one-off events, announced when staff feel like running one.
What events pay
Tokens, crate keys, tags and multipliers, which is to say the things that make the rest of the grind faster. Events are the shortest route to a better pickaxe on this server, and every one of them is free to turn up to.
How to know one is coming
Events are announced in game and in Discord before they start, and anything scheduled goes in the news. Nothing is ever announced to one group of players first, and no package in the store buys early access, a better reward or an invitation.
Seasons do not wipe anything
A season is a window of themed events and crates. It ends, the crates close, and your rank, prestige, balance, gear and cosmetics carry straight into the next one. What stays forever.
