Hey everyone. So yeah the past 3-4 weeks have been utter chaos with the announcement of Minecraft 1.9. There has literally been so little time to handle anything but programming/fixing issues that I have simply not had time to sit down and look at everything we have done here. There have been approximately 25k lines added to the code and 20k removed. This means effectively between 20k lines of our current code base was modified in the past few weeks. There was a LOT of reworks that we had to do in order to achieve the 1.7/1.8/1.9 cross compatibility. We still are not done as a matter of fact.Hopefully by the end of this week we will be very close to wrapping it all up and by the week after we can release UHC 5.0 shortly followed by SG 2.0 the week after that (April 9th) or one week after that (April 16th) depending on stability. Very shortly after SG 2.0 if not at the same time CTF should be released also.
We are getting very close to completing our infrastructure updates/core functionality that we have needed in order to push all of these updates out. This also means the long lost Clans 2.0 will be coming out soon as well (needed these core functionalities in place). Lots of great stuff to come towards the end of March and all of April as we start pumping features out one by one and grow into that Mega Network that we have been destined to become.
Time to start sifting through 350 commits or so to see what has changed in the past month…

Good Job! Very hyped for UHC 5.0 and SG 2.0! SG has been needing an update, and Mini UHC may also be getting updated in UHC 5.0. So a lot to be excited for right at the beginning of summer! :DPosted on 21 March 2016 - 09:44 AM
Not that I don't appreciate your hard work, I REALLY do. But I don't see the point of having a 1.9 server if you're gonna get rid of the cooldown. It's basically the same, I was looking forward to pvp being interesting again, but I guess I'll keep waiting >.< Could you at least add a vanilla ladder?Posted on 21 March 2016 - 10:31 AM

It's very different, and by releasing it, we are encouraging players to go on 1.9, so we can use more 1.9 features as the community get used to it (far down the line of course)
