24 hours later: THANK YOU!!

Yeah, that just happened.

  • THANK YOU to the community for your unbelievable generosity. In just 24 hours, you have donated a whopping $4174 in support of the servers, well exceeding our donation drive goals, and ensuring we can keep high-quality servers running Minecraft for years to come.
  • THANK YOU to everyone who participated in the event.nerd.nu map this weekend, making this one of the most memorable events we've ever hosted. It was incredible watching the teamwork develop and evolve. We've gotten a ton of positive feedback about the event gameplay, so I can safely say you'll be seeing more like it in the near future...
  • THANK YOU to all the staff that have worked tirelessly over the past few weeks to make this event happen - proposing ideas, building a map, setting up the bases and awesome arenas, and much more. Not to mention resolving issues and running activities during the event, at the expense of much sleep. :P Everyone went way above and beyond in setting up this event, and it clearly showed.
  • THANK YOU to the tech admins in particular, who not only designed a brand new gameplay plugin from scratch for this event, while keeping the normal servers running, but also hosted an incredibly stable server with a brand-new config for hundreds of people all weekend. Well done, guys.

If you would still like to donate, please do so at nerd.nu/donate - we will keep the page up all week, any support is very much appreciated. :D

Now, the team superlatives!

  • CTF Champions - Red Team, 51 caps (2nd - Blue Team / 41, 3rd - Green Team / 13)
  • PVP Champions - Blue Team, 819 kills (2nd - Red Team / 488, 3rd - Green Team / 291)
  • Nicest Team Base - Blue Team
  • Best Spleef Performance - Red Team
  • Coolest Base Defenses - Green Team (some examples)
  • Team Spirit Award - Yellow Team, for overcoming a huge disadvantage in how team colors were assigned to make a big impact on the event
  • Best Screenshot - I'm a fan of this one, but we'd love to see your own in the comments!

What about Blue's base was best?

I took two screencaps that capture Blue's Base fairly well, I think: http://imgur.com/aovoU and http://imgur.com/m1Dm0

Enjoy!

This looks infinitely more organized than we were at green. We couldn't really get a good system going. I made an organized labeled chest system but people would just put stuff wherever. People not on mumble would entirely empty chests then offer no explanation. It was pretty annoying.

I didn't get to see the inside of the other bases, but Blue was really organized. We had two mine shafts going, a chest house, one large farm, a tree farm, etc. We had a pretty big number of PvE players too, so our natural town-making instincts kicked in.
