The Update that Changed the World October 25, 2013 Java Edition 1.7.2 The Update that Changed the World is the name for Java Edition 1.7.2, a major update released on October 25, 2013. It added many new features such as a new terrain generator, many new biomes and biome variations, stained glass, red sand, new tree types, a new spawn system, new fish and a new fishing system with rewards, many new flowers, many more customization options, custom-size Nether portals up to 23×23, minecarts with command blocks, and many new commands. Development began two months after 1.6.2 was released. Fourteen development snapshots were released, from 13w36a to 13w43a. Several iterations of the launcher were released during this time period, from 1.2.3 to 1.2.8. Also during the development period, 1.6.4 was released. Near the end of the snapshot cycle for the 1.7.2 update, Mojang focused primarily on fixing bugs, rather than adding new features. The official name for the update, "The Update that Changed the World", was only announced three days prior to the 1.7.2 release on the MCUpdate tumblr blog (which was displayed in the old launcher). Mojang released the 1.7 pre-release on October 22, 2013, the 1.7.1 pre-release on October 23, and the 1.7.2 pre-release on October 25, shortly before the official release of the update.

The official name for the update, the Exploration Update, was revealed on September 24, 2016, during the Opening Ceremony at MINECON 2016.

[SOURCE: https://minecraft.wiki/w/Better_Together_Update] | [TOKENS: 592]
Better Together Update September 20, 2017 Bedrock Edition 1.2.0 The Better Together Update is the name of the update for Bedrock Edition 1.2.0, a major update released on September 20, 2017, that unified the cross-compatible Pocket Edition, Windows 10 Edition, Gear VR Edition, and Fire TV Edition under the simple name Minecraft. It also marked the debut of Bedrock Edition on Xbox One, replacing the previous Xbox One Edition. Contents Better Together This update extended crossplay (short for cross-platform gameplay, the ability of players on different platforms to play interactively in the same world) to virtually all of the newest-generation gaming platforms. Previously, the Pocket Edition had supported cross-play between mobile, Windows 10, and VR platforms. This update added support for the Xbox One and Nintendo Switch, drastically increasing the number of devices that could participate. The updated game was also designed to work with the Nintendo Switch and Sony PlayStation 4; however, both platforms did not initially receive the update. The Nintendo Switch deployment was delayed due to problems with cross-device connectivity and upgrading of old worlds and Mojang Studios was still in ongoing talks with Sony about a possible future agreement as the latter had previously declined to participate. With the unification of so many different platforms under one version of the game, the nickname Pocket Edition became increasingly outdated. From 1.2.0 onwards, Mojang referred to this version as the Bedrock Engine or Bedrock Edition when distinguishing it from either the game as a whole or other versions of Minecraft. The name "Bedrock" came from the internal name for its source code database. To emphasize the broad range of supported devices, Minecraft: Bedrock Edition became known simply as Minecraft. The original Java version of Minecraft, which had formerly held that designation, was officially renamed Minecraft: Java Edition to avoid confusion. Technical details Even though the name changed, the update was a normal update for Pocket Edition, Windows 10 Edition, Gear VR Edition, and Fire TV Edition. On Xbox One, the update was released as a new game, requiring the user to install it separately. Bedrock Edition on Xbox One is free for players who own a digital copy of Xbox One Edition, have played the disc copy of Xbox One Edition for at least 5 hours in the past 12 months, or have bought at least one DLC for Xbox One Edition. Beta testing for the update for Android and Windows 10 began on July 31, 2017, and for Xbox One on August 24, 2017. The update was submitted to certification for 9 of the 10 platforms on September 15, 2017. With the release of the Better Together Update, the original PC version of Minecraft was renamed to Minecraft: Java Edition in 1.12.2 to distinguish it from Bedrock Edition.

Contents Event The event was conceived by Notch after he expressed interest in a meet-up in a blog post and called on the community to organize it without specifying a venue. Notch was already in the area visiting the offices of Valve Software. Although Notch referred to it as "MinecraftCon 2010," the event was more of an informal gathering than a traditional gaming or anime convention. A thread on the Minecraft Forum served as an unofficial hub for organizing the event, with attendees sharing YouTube videos and photos afterward. Over 50 people attended the gathering, including one fan in a full-body creeper costume, which caught Notch's attention. Notch discussed his future plans for Minecraft and addressed the recent popularity of Herobrine. Several attendees livestreamed the event or uploaded recorded footage to YouTube.

The official Tumblr page for the event can be found here. Contents Announcement On June 27, 2013, Mojang announced that MINECON 2013 would be held in Orlando, Florida, USA, from November 2–3. Tickets and hotel deals were scheduled to go on sale in July. The event was confirmed to take place at the Orange County Convention Center (OCCC). Initially, MINECON was listed on the OCCC's calendar of events but was temporarily removed due to high traffic. After ticket sales concluded, MINECON was re-added to the OCCC Exhibitor On-line Services calendar and the Show Banner Orders calendar. A dedicated page for exhibitors to arrange electrical, lighting, and other booth utilities was also created. Location The event was held at the Orange County Convention Center (9990 International Drive, Orlando, Florida). Activities were centered in the West Building, specifically Exhibit Halls WA3 - WB1. Tickets Tickets went on sale in three batches on July 31, August 2, and August 3, 2013, priced at US$150 each. Each batch offered 2,500 tickets, totaling 7,500 available passes. Attendees were also given access to discounted hotel bookings. The first batch sold out within three seconds. Event MINECON 2013 featured an official costume contest and an official build contest, marking the last time these contests were held. Contestant fyrflies placed in both the Build Contest and the Costume Contest. The build contest theme was "Halloween", reflecting the proximity to the holiday. The contest ran weeks before the convention, with winners announced at the closing ceremony. Tewkesape/theo_the_ape was the only participant to place in the top three for both the 2013 and 2012 build contests. Promotions On September 5, 2013, Mojang announced that attendees of MINECON 2013 would receive an exclusive cape. The cape features a jade green design with a piston emblem, and was distributed via email to attendees on October 29, 2013.[citation needed] Controversies Mojang and their ticket vendor, Eventbrite, faced criticism for the ticket sales system. The rapid sell-out of tickets (the first batch in three seconds) and technical issues with the "Pending" status during checkout led to widespread complaints. A Change.org petition was created in response. Mojang initially set the age restriction at 17 years old (16 and under with an adult). After reconsideration, the restriction was lowered to 14 years old (13 and under with an adult). Refunds were offered for those affected, and returned tickets were resold.

MINECON Earth 2017 Minecraft LIVE stream Center Stage, Atlanta, Georgia November 18, 2017 1:51:37 MINECON Earth 2017 was a 90-minute interactive livestream, that took place on November 18, 2017, and filmed at Atlanta, Georgia, USA inside Center Stage (Atlanta). It featured Lydia Winters and Will Arnett as the hosts. Contents Community events Announced at the same time were official community events, hosted by community-led partners such as Minefaire, Minevention and Blockfest. These partners (along with many more to come) had gained the official stamp of approval to throw authentic in-person Minecraft experiences. Attendees got to meet their favorite YouTubers and streamers, compete in tournaments and costume contests, see unique content and more. Event Before the formal event began, Julia Hardy and Tyler Pappas welcome the viewer in, promising great announcements. From there, they segue into a montage of various YouTubers demonstrating then-new features, including fireworks boosting elytra, parrots, llamas, Minecraft: Story Mode - Season Two, add-ons, and the World of Color Update. Once the montage concludes, the content creators OMGchad and TrueTriz about the preceding reel, talking about their favorite recent additions, such as the Marketplace and the Better Together Update. Noticing the time, OMGchad and TrueTriz decide to leave, as Julia asks Tyler what he knows about the main show. They expect Jens Bergensten to make an appearance and announce new features, before mentioning the Mob Vote. Julia then reveals they were told there was a "musical thing," of which Tyler will be making an appearance in, "in tap dancing shoes and a smile." Defensively, Tyler says they weren't supposed to mention that yet. Suddenly, the YouTuber Aureylian, and talks about her personal experiences with previous MINECONs, mentioning her child was very excited for the new features every year. From there they relate their struggles dealing with non-disclosure agreements, before unveiling a trailer for Minecraft Mini-Series, and then a commercial for LEGO Minecraft. Once the reveal concludes, an employee from Telltale Games arrives, and talks about the development process for Minecraft: Story Mode and its sequel. He discusses closely working with community members and Mojang Studios. He then highlights several of the guest actors, teasing the character of Anthony, and the importance Stampy Cat and Stacy Plays have in the narrative. He moves on to talk about how the game works within the broader Minecraft continuity, pointing out there is in-universe justification for exclusive mobs, singling out the Giant Ghast. From there he praises the character of Lluna the llama, calling her their favorite addition to the cast. As four minutes remain, Scott leaves and the cohosts begin talking about thair personal choices for the Mob Vote. The YouTuber Rabahrex wriggles his way into the show, and begins talking about how he plans on voting for the Barnacle. After a conversation about all the options, they begin to discuss breathing exercises, before wrapping things up. Declaring "come on, MINECON Earth! It's gonna be great," the pre-show ends. As the show officially begins, a segue into the formal opening begins. A countdown appears in the void, before panning into a catacomb of bedrock lit with torches. As ten seconds pass, the setting transitions into a stone cave, with Steve and a creeper flying past the countdown. The camera rises up a shaft into a mineshaft with an inordinate amount of chests, before reaching 40 seconds. More chests begin to appear, alongside log pillars and furnaces. Soon the ceiling elevates into an artificial environment with smooth stone flooring, then into a cobblestone cave filled with lava, as the clock ticks down to 30 seconds. Several skeletons appear to shoot at Alex, as the scope of the area grows, multiple large pillars being visible, before the camera rises again through a blob of what appears to be yellow terracotta or sponges, into water. As twenty seconds remain, the camera is straightened onto a surface pond, before revealing the event logo in the final ten seconds. Fireworks go off as MINECON Earth begins anew. As the formal opening ends, a live action segment begins, on the shot of a stage door being knocked. The perspective is revealed to be first person, and belonging to Will Arnett, who boasts "hi there, I'm Will," and explains he's trying to find Lydia. He finds her explaining chickens are not ducks, to someone who brought a mallard. Lydia then leaves in a hurry, confusing Will, as a backstage employee asks for his autograph, leading to him getting swarmed with requests. Suddenly, several feathers explode from an unknown source, as a llama is leashed into the room and Will begs for help. Will remarks they look less blocky than they do in the video game, only for him to be shocked when the real llama is magically transformed into a Minecraft llama, which apparently feasts on cardboard grass blocks. Will then picks up a Styrofoam diamond sword, accidentally losing his grip and throwing it at a cow, the last one they had. Will Arnett is then handed a hat and cane, before being measured for a song and dance number. He then gets makeup down by an overzealous fan, who praises his skin. As twenty seconds remain, another explosion goes off, Lydia evidently being caught in it with crazed hair. Lydia then brings Will into the shadows. The pre-recorded skit ends, as Will Arnett and Lydia Winters emerge on a physical stage, recorded live. Lydia remarks "hellooo, Earth!" and introduces Will. She explains they "wanted to make this show inclusive," hence the switch to a live stream. Will Arnett assumes she means building one giant monitor in space so everyone on Earth can see it in the sky. Will Arnett then asks what "the show" entails, Lydia promising "a lot of stuff planned," comparing it to a variety show. Lydia then introduces the Mob Vote, which Will Arnett says blew his mind. The audience cheers as he says he's hosting, and jokes about "beating his kids [at Minecraft]." Lydia then reveals that the team at Mojang Studios offered a "crazy challenge," segueing into the first segment of the event. Beginning in footage of a taiga biome, a narrator discusses how Minecraft is more than a game about creativity, but survival. They then ask the question, how would one of the people behind the game fare in a real world situation? The employee selected for the initiative is Marsh Davies, who introduces himself and claims he's "the least likely to survive." He intends to prove them wrong, boasting that he plays Minecraft and thus knows everything about survival. To assist him in his quest, Marsh is handed a backpack of supplies, but unfortunately, said supplies are various pieces of Minecraft merchandise. As he embarks into the wilderness, the stakes are established; he's several miles away from civilization, in the "Swedish forests." His first thought is to build a shelter, contemplating punching a tree. Instead, he decides to use a Styrofoam iron axe, and on a small shrub as opposed to a full tree. Venturing farther into the woods, he overhears the squeals of a pig, and begins hunting it down. He pulls out a bow, using it to fire an arrow, both fake. It fails to land him anything, despite functioning as an actual bow. Later, sitting under a tree with a fidget spinner, he overhears a wolf howl. Hoping to prevent any injuries, he pulls out a diamond sword and hunts down the wolf. This time, he successfully finds it on a large rock, however he flees at the mere sight of it. The time jumps to the next day, the narrator arriving to check in on Marsh. He's found sleeping in a blanket, with his "equipment" scattered. He flees at the mere sight of the narrator, rushing over to a car to get back to civilization as quickly as possible. As the video concludes, Will tries to comprehend whether the video was "fun survival" or "scary survival." Lydia begins to tease the Mob Vote, and introduces the "official Mob Vote correspondant," Vu Bui. After introducing himself, Vu tries to explain why they "can't add all four mobs," speechifying how it's a complex topic and they simply don't have time to go into the exact situation, instead pointing out "players choosing what goes into the games is awesome!" He goes on to explain the mobs in order, before explaining how to vote on Twitter and boasting the losing mobs will be "GONE FOREVER" with a dastardly echo. He then proceeds to ask if he can do that effect "anytime." He can. As the intermission ends, Will and Lydia appear again, now in a living room set furnished with Minecraft memorabilia. Lydia asks what Will's voting for, but he remarks he can't tell, and doubles down as he looks down to his smartphone to vote. She then boasts she'll find out, as he gives her an easy way to find out by accident, asking what he did to get into the game. He boasts that he is "not a noob."[note 1] He is then surprised the game has been out for eight years, and the anniversary of the first MINECON. They then go into play styles, Lydia admitting she dies a lot and goes on "miss-adventures." Will Arnett then admitted a creeper blew up his house, before being asked about his first impression of the game, admitting he thought it "looked a little pixely." "Like a chunky pixel." This reminds Lydia to bring up the option to let players change the aesthetic of the game, using texture packs and mash-up packs, specifically the Super Duper Graphics Pack. Feeling defensive, Will clarifies he likes how the game looks, as Lydia clarifies she meant it's "like 4K." Lydia then brings up a video they made to promote the pack, calling it "the biggest video we've ever made, by far." The video begins on a stage, decorated with a lone grass block with an azure bluet on top. Melissa Benoist walks onto the stage, picking up dirt, singing about personal preference. The curtains open, revealing a small hill in the Overworld, which she climbs, before connecting two cables carried with parrots, marked "Super" and "Duper." Connecting the two, the world's textures begin to convert to that of the Super Duper Graphics Pack. A Super Duper pig riding a minecart passes by a chicken, converting it instantly. Wolves patrol a snowy plains biome and get the upgrade in milliseconds, while a villager appears out of nowhere. A pig strolls through a badlands biome, and is transformed into a creeper. As Melissa continues singing, the biome changes to a desert, which frightens the creeper. A chorus of llamas appear, as a villager interjects. The biome then changes to a snowy plains, as a squid leaps out of the river and chickens fall from a hot air balloon, transitioning Melissa to a pond. Stepping across lily pads, Melissa jumps off a cliff into a cityscape, her fall apparently broken by an explosion. Somehow okay, many more mobs begin to dance with her, including Steve, Alex, and many characters from skin packs, climaxing the video as it reveals a huge collection of floating terrain. In the final shot, Melissa is back on the stage, and knocks over a Super Duper zombie. As the music video concludes, Will Arnett remarks that he recognizes "that actress" as playing Supergirl in the television series. In response, he puts on the voice he uses to play Batman in The LEGO Movie franchise, half-jokingly promoting the release of The LEGO Batman Movie, eliciting applause. Suddenly, Lydia tries to trick Will into admitting what mob he voted for by saying it's winning, but he's smarter than that. Lydia concedes, but decides to transition into creators' opinion on the vote. Several creators appear on screen, eating popcorn on a couch in front of several photos of the event logo. The creators include CavemanFilms, AntVenom, BlackieChanXBL, and Stephy, who discuss their opinions on each of the Mob Vote options. After discussing the dangers of the four candidates, they conclude they'll "be dead" regardless. Suddenly, the feed cuts back to the main set, where Logdotzip, PixelPrincess80, Rabahrex, and DaphneElaine appear to "sneak" in while Will and Lydia are backstage. They declare it's better to play together, sitting on the couch to promote the Better Together update, playing on a unique world with race cars. Before the race could conclude, Will and Lydia wander back onto set out of character[note 2]. Lydia is shocked to see the four creators having "taken over the stage," while Will is insulted more than anything, before the creators retreat in a panic. Once the four YouTubers leave the stage, the audience applauds. Will Arnett doubles down on the threat they posed to his job security, before Lydia decides to segue into a commercial for the video game live streaming service Mixer, featuring pigs and a chicken materializing out of thin air. Following the ad, Will Arnett becomes concerned the same thing will happen on the stage, before asserting the Mob Vote is a bigger concern they should focus on first. He decides it's time to check up on the vote's progress. Before that happens, he makes a number of puns. Vu Bui returns, reusing his intro from the prior segment. He gives an update, announcing that "you humans" have been voting in the thousands. It's revealed that Mob A lost by 23% of the vote, "banishing it to never be seen again." In order to banish it, he takes out a lighter and burns a fabric name tag for the mob, destroying it beyond repair. From there he announced a second poll, before returning to Lydia and Will, now on a set of a plains biome. Situating themselves in the new setting, Will begrudgingly admits Mob A was the one he voted for, and is visibly taken aback by its death. Lydia promises Vu will return in half an hour to continue the initiative, before Will develops a desire to see the community. The feed cuts to MINECON Earth parties across the world, showing people at places such as the Museum of Pop Culture in Seatle. Will then decides he is happy, before doing a comedic Scottish accent. Lydia then highlights the introduction of secondary conventions, 16 in total across 4 countries, set to begin in 2018. Afterwards Lydia announces the cosplay competition. Will Arnett apparently doesn't know what it is, so Lydia gives an example; dressing up as Batman. Flustered, Will does his Batman voice again, joking he makes 17¢ whenever he says the name in that voice. In order to host the cosplay contest, Lydia invites the winner of last year's show, Ruthie, who wore a magma cube costume. Arnett's doubt leads to video proof of the costume, everyone cheering for her imagination. Before revealing the three finalists, several of the other candidates are shown, including Steve riding a pig, a snow golem, a pale wolf with a pink bow, TNT, the Ender Dragon, a rabbit, Herobrine, and many more. As the reel ends, Lydia prepares the finalists, mentioning some were so elaborate the costumes simply couldn't be delivered without destruction. The finalists include Lily from Lancaster, California, who created a costume of a bipedal wolf, in third place. In second place is Joel and Troy, who created a guardian with a functional eye and tail. The winner are father and son Chad and Noah Keck from San Antonio, who made Jesse with the Formidi-Bomb, and the Wither Storm. After being announced the winner, the two arrive on stage in costume, Ruthie handing the winners their prizes. Once the contest concludes, Lydia asks what Will he would like to cosplay as. He gives several options, such as a "plate of invisible glass," "a pig who can never get eaten," or "like, a pixely guy who's new in town, but everyone can tell right away he's like, really cool, just by the way he walks." Lydia then proceeds to announce the collaboration with Adventure Time, initiating an interview with Jeremy Shada and Olivia Olson, the voices of Finn the Human and Marceline the Vampire Queen. They discuss the Adventure Time Mash-Up Pack, having a brief exchange about Marceline not burning in sunlight, before showing material from the crossover episode Diamonds and Lemons. A reel of model sheets from the episode play, including the Grass Lands, Finn sniffing a pumpkin pie, Finn, Jake the Dog mining with a pickaxe, Marceline in a sun hat, a skeleton, Ice King, Princess Bubblegum, a background with signs, Lemongrab, Lumpy Space Princess, an enderman, and a "cubular" forest. While listing the assets off, the two voice actors make several comedic comments, talking as if the characters are actually there. From there, they reveal a preliminary look at animation from the episode, which Jeremy assumes for a moment features Dracula. The storyboards open with several skeletons building a windmill, as Marceline stretches before summoning more to help build it for her. Finn walks in and compliments the project, before Marcy lets slip she plans to "grind up a whole mess of bone meal." Marcy then brings attention to an item Finn found, before making a joke about Finn's rear end. Once that segment concludes, Lydia thanks the talent at Cartoon Network, while Will snidely remarks he would have liked to appear on the show as well. The hosts talk about the innovative side of Minecraft, such as a reconstruction of Denmark.[citation needed] They transition to the multiplayer aspect of Minecraft, and then unveil a video about various creators, Will impressed by the amount of external videos featured in the show. A narrator tells of the perception of Minecraft as a game about breaking and placing blocks, because "well, it is," before seguing to people who "saw something more." Joe from Noxcrew gives an account, talking about apparent dangers of creating with redstone. Connected by their passion for craft, Alex from Blockception is interviewed, discussing how far they've come in terms of adventure maps. The next interviewee is Razz from Razzleberries, who talks about her passion for skins. All these talents combined are said to have led to the creation of the Marketplace, awakening an unlimited imagination. Once that concludes, Emily Orrson appears on stage and explains the hosts are "off checking the vote count." Taking their place, she begins discussing new partners, such as Mindcrack, both for the Marketplace and servers. The audience is established to remember servers exist. The stream cuts to a trailer for several servers, "in a world... where everything is better together."[note 3] It's explained that several million players "had a dream," to compete on the greatest multiplayer servers. To achieve this, they embarked on a quest, compared to a cat being pushed off a bookshelf by a piston. From there the narrator begins listing off many by names and minigames, including the Hive. The video ends by condemning a player named Neil, who is not a champion. Once the trailer ends, another first person behind the scenes video begins, showing over a dozen Mojang employees struggling to keep up with counting the Mob Vote. They begin to show some hope, until a new batch of votes is dispensed from a tube and people begin laughing manically. The feed then returns to Vu and his intro, who is speaking to someone on his earpiece, not knowing he's live. He reminds the viewer that they're on the second round, and pushes to vote, before promising to "check in our counters." He then makes a pun on the term "chopping block," praying that viewers understood it.[note 4] The feed returns to Will and Lydia, who promise a mob being eliminated. Lydia then establishes the current subject; a game of Build Blitz, where the two hosts compete to help manage teams. Although Will Arnett seems certain he'll win, Lydia then clarifies the teams chose who to coach them, remarking "I can smell your fear." OMGchad, DaphneElaine, TrueTriz, and PixelPrincess80 make themselves known, and immediately gravitate towards Lydia. In order to win some over, he announces he will coach them as Batman, convincing PixelPrincess80 and a reluctant TrueTriz. The rules of the game are explained; they have to memorize a build, and then reconstruct it as fast as they can. If a block is placed, it can't be reclaimed. The build begins with the placement of several oak planks and smooth stone slabs, followed by oak logs. With 12 seconds left, the tension rises, Team Lydia winning the round. The second of three rounds begins, focused on a blue bed. The idea of stealing controllers is thrown around, before ultimately Team Lydia wins again. The final round is a mouse head, with buttons for eyes and a pink concrete nose. The audience cheers for Team Lydia, and then Team Will, who admits he is a noob. Ultimately, Team Lydia is triumphant. Abruptly, Will returns to Vu, who is still in the middle of counting the vote. He proceeds to apologize for the "appearance of chaos" in the sketch prior and explains that, in the industry, this is known as "organized chaos." He proceeds to establish Mob B as the current winner, with 37% of the vote, referred to as "The Mob to Be." Mob D then loses, Vu describing its elimination to "being banished to history and memedom." Vu then eats paper, before announcing "two down, two remain, fresh round of voting begins right now!" Returning to the hosts once again, Lydia asks Will who he thinks will win. He says it could go either way, calling them cool, if "not as cool as what I'd come up with." As Lydia explains the hard work needed to add just one mob into the game, she segues into a segment explaining the development of the llama. The feed cuts to Agnes Larsson, who questions whether to do llamas or alpacas. Jens then appears, inviting her over to his desk to inform her of a Twitter poll which decided on the answer. Handing her supplies, she embarks on a trip to research llamas, wearing thick clothing to protect herself from saliva. Sneaking into a forest, she documents llamas from afar, taking notes, measuring them, creating a color palette, and "really study every angle." She then says there is a conception of mob research as being taken too seriously. Returning to Mojang HQ, she begins coding the mob at her desk, while speaking to another developer about parrots. When asked how the development of that mob went, it cuts to a jungle. The feed returns to the hosts, now back in the indoor sets. As the audience applauds, Lydia introduces Saxs Persson, Will grateful to be face to face with an actual programmer. Saxs then clarifies he is actually a creative director, and talks about how game development is more than coding. Lydia asks him how to make a game, and he segues to a video on the Minecraft Hour of Code. He says that, this year, they've introduced functions, which Will points out has the word fun it. After the three butt heads somewhat, Saxs reveals that Stacy Plays will be helping host the videos. The feed cuts to a video of Stacy, Stampy, Lizzie, and PrestonPlayz on a railway to a badlands plateau. Suddenly, the four fall into a hole on the track, crashing into a body of water. As Lizzie suffers from a cactus, Stampy comes to the late conclusion that there was a hole. They then decide to race to find the materials needed to escape the crevice, pulling out pickaxes, only to discover they can't break anything. As they humor the idea of the code being broken, an agent appears, before Stacy resumes real life against her will. The feed transitions to a live interview with Stacy, who talks about working with Minecraft Education. She explains how the Hour of Code game works, before quickly signing off. As the feed once again returns to the hosts, Will feels invigorated, Lydia proud of him. Announcing that it's "time to swim," Lydia leaves so he can focus on the new update. On his own, Will professes he can do whatever he wants, and ponders what to start with, saying he always wanted to be a talk show host. On command, a crew of people arrive to rearrange the set, giving him a new suit to host the talk show. Snapping his fingers, the lighting changes to purple, and the backdrop becomes a cityscape. Will welcomes his first guest, Jens Bergensten himself, who shakes his hand and sits on the couch. He jokes "since I've first started the show I've wanted you as a guest," saying he's a big fan before bluntly asking who he is and what he does. Jens explains his role at the time as lead creative designer, a position he's had for six years at that point. He talks about his push to find a consensus, listen to the community, before Will asks for his "origin story." Jens recounts how Markus Persson quit his job to focus on Minecraft full time, and hired Jens to work on other games besides Minecraft, which he never did. By the time the game became a global phenomenon, Jens was working full time as well, before surpassing Persson. The subject changes to questions, and then limitations of Minecraft. Jens explains "almost anything goes," and calls vanilla Minecraft a fancy adventure. Will then praises a mug in the shape of TNT. Asking about how design sessions go, Jens recounts how they always ask "what now?" before going into inspiration, such as movies, other games, and walking down the street. He recounts how the World of Color update was inspired by a beautiful terracotta floor, which he recognized was actually just one tile repeated in creative ways, inspiring glazed terracotta. The topic then changes to the next update. Jens talks about how they now have both Java Edition and Bedrock Edition relatively caught up. Then and there, Jens announces the Update Aquatic, revealing prototypes of several new features. These include bubble columns, tridents, coral, kelp, fish mobs, water physics, shipwrecks, and dolphins. Once the video ends, Jens talks about bubbles and prototyping features, explaining that items will float in water, while magma blocks pull them downwards. He then shows off the trident, explaining the loyalty enchantment and comparing it to Mjölnir, before discussing riptide. He then mentions a suggestion by Nathan Adams; allowing the riptide mechanic to work in rain. The next talking point are fish, highlighting the added variety, and then clarifies coral reefs will be segmented between separate biomes. From there Jens talks about changing water physics, hoping to remove "weird air pockets." He then announces icebergs, and expands on dolphins, getting the highest acclaim. He establishes dolphins as helpers, before specifying there are more features planned. Will makes a joke, saying it's nice dolphins have a "sense of porpoise." Snapping his fingers, Will then invites Vu onto the set to announce the winner of the Mob Vote. Opening up a padded metal briefcase, Jens grabs an envelope holding the winner. Will then makes a topical joke about La La Land, before Jens announces Mob B as the winner. Showing off a colored version of the illustration, Will then lies that he voted for it, as Vu says the vote was very close. Will then asks Jens if he is excited. as he specifies they don't have a name yet and will come in the Update Aquatic. Vu then says he needs "the keys to the handcuffs" and leaves with Jens. Alone once again, Will asks for whatever he wants, as Lydia returns in a fancy dress. She says she's happy MINECON can be "around the world, for everyone," and then begins the song and dance number. Singing off-key, Lydia and Will sing about the Update Aquatic and the events of the day, Will professes he's learned. Several backup dancers dance behind the two as they disruptively list off things that happened, Will promising to return the next year, saying he's "no longer a fool!" All the guests of the show stand behind the hosts, as they sign off the show for the year. The proper show concluded, the opening animation repeats, with an added caption telling viewers to wait for a post-show. Julia Hardy welcomes the viewers back, now with Aureylian. Relieved they can finally go over the new content, they begin gushing over the song and dance number, pondering over where the backup dancers came from. Julia ponders whether they'll do dance numbers every year, both surprised to see Lydia singing "in a dress and heels!" They then talk about the pacing and amount of surprises, then the Mob Vote. Suddenly, OMGchad appears, concerned about confetti. PixelPrincess80 appears next, discussing stage fright and standing in vicinity of Will Arnett. OMGChad praises his method of handshaking. They then joke about the next MINECON being a full musical underwater. They then talk about the Mob Vote, which many people backstage are satisfied by. The topic of a tie with both mobs coming is discussed, before TrueTriz appears and they talk about Adventure Time. They were surprised to see the voice actors, not expecting them to be who they were. TrueTriz's favorite moment was his momentum in Build Blitz. Talking about the contest winners, they speak very highly of them, saying they want to hang out with them. The topic then comes up of who the YouTubers would cosplay as, TrueTriz wanting to honor Reuben. Other suggestions given are sheep, bats, polar bears, and enchanted armors with holographic glint. As the conversation wraps up, the viewer is thanked with the creators. Mob Vote Watchers were able to vote for a new mob to be added into the game, out of 4 options (pictured). People were able to vote via a Twitter poll, and the three mobs that did not win the vote were not implemented. Mob A, the Barnacle, also called "The Monster of the Ocean Depths", was a "jellyfish-like" ocean creature that sucks players down with its tentacle. The mob spawns in oceans and deep oceans and has a large mouth that it uses to propel itself through the water. Jens says that viewers should vote for Mob A because there is currently not a lot of content in the oceans, and it would make a good challenge for players traveling across the ocean. Mob A was eliminated after the first poll. The Update Aquatic went on to add bubble columns generated from magma blocks, serving a similar purpose. Mob B, the Phantom, at the time known as "The Monster of the Night Skies", is a flying creature that seeks out and attacks players who haven't slept for 3 days. It spawns at high altitudes in the air, and attacks in groups. Jens says that viewers should vote for Mob B because there were no flying monsters in the Overworld yet. Mob B won the vote, and was first added into the game in Java Edition 1.13 snapshot 18w07a, with the name of "the phantom." Mob C, "The Great Hunger", was a lizard-like creature that sinks into the ground, camouflages itself and consumes mobs and items with its huge mouth. It has a "great appetite for enchanting powers" and Jens says that viewers should vote for Mob C because players may be able to use the mob's abilities to add or remove enchantments for players' own items. Mob C was eliminated after the third poll. The ability to remove enchantments was later added in the form of the grindstone block. Mob D, The Wildfire, called "The Hovering Inferno" during the vote, is a type of blaze. Its body parts serve as shields and are used to defend itself from attack. This mob would spawn with groups of blazes randomly and attacks the player in the Nether with its dangerous shock wave attack. Jens says that viewers should vote for Mob D because it would make the Nether "even more scary and exciting". Mob D was eliminated after the second poll. In spite of losing the vote, it was then added as a mob in the Luminous Night seasonal adventure in Minecraft Dungeons, as well as Minecraft: Portal Dash. At 30 minutes into the event, Mob A lost the vote and was eliminated. 30 minutes after that, Mob D was also eliminated. After 20 more minutes, Mob B won the vote, eliminating mob C. Mob B has been released alongside Java Edition and Legacy Console Edition Update Aquatic and alongside Bedrock Edition 1.6.0. Promotions Prior to the event, several pieces of merchandise was released by JINX. Some directly promoted the event, others were indirectly themed after it in inexact ways.​[more information needed] In celebration of the event, the MINECON Earth 2017 Skin Pack was made freely available for Bedrock Edition, Legacy Console Edition, and as a ZIP file for Java Edition. As part of the Abstraction series, Jigarbov Productions released a map to coincide with the event on July 31, 2018. The map is set on a to scale replica of the MINECON Earth logo, with the player being tasked to locate several objects. Themed after the World of Color update, Purple Parrot Party Palace was released to the Marketplace on November 13, 2017. Developed by the "Minecraft Team," the map centers around exploring an expanse of jungle territory, working the way over to a palace owned by an apparent purple parrot named Pete. Quotes What on Earth... MINECON Earth. Creators, retreat! Retreat! Retreat! Let's run, guys! Yes, maybe I did get a little bit territorial, but it's not like when they're doing "let's plays" that I can just go in and, take over whatever it is they're doing! I love cosplay! It's my favorite combination of cause and play. Hi everyone, and Will! Videos Trivia Gallery Notes References Navigation Navigation menu

Minecraft Live 2020 Minecraft LIVE stream Annexet, Stockholm, Sweden October 3, 2020 2:13:54 Lydia Winters Minecraft Live 2020 was a live event held on October 3, 2020, from 16:00 UTC. Originally, it was planned that Minecraft Festival, a real-world event similar to the original MINECON events, would occur; however, because of the COVID-19 pandemic, Minecraft Festival was pushed back to 2022. The live event streamed on YouTube, Twitch, Facebook, and Minecraft.net. Mojang announced the Caves & Cliffs update during the event. Contents Event There was a 20-minute Community Pre-Show right before the main event which consisted of content creators expressing about Minecraft. Like MINECON Live 2019, there was an announcement relating to the next major update, similarly to how the Nether Update was announced at MINECON Live 2019, with other major updates in the years before. Unlike the last years though, the announcement was held at the beginning of the show. The update that was announced was Caves & Cliffs. Mobs from Minecraft Dungeons and Minecraft Earth were voted on to be added to Minecraft. For the second time, watchers were able to vote for a new mob to be added into the game in a future update.

Minecraft Live 2021 Minecraft LIVE stream Annexet, Stockholm, Sweden October 16, 2021 2:15:26 Lydia Winters Minecraft Live 2021 was a live event held on October 16, 2021, at 16:00 UTC. It announced The Wild Update, the next update after Caves & Cliffs: Part II, and contained a mob vote in which the allay won. Contents Announcement The event was mentioned in a video released by Mojang Studios called "Caves & Cliffs Special: Looking Forward". Agnes Larsson said that the next major update would be announced at Minecraft Live 2021. The event was later formally announced in a video released by Mojang Studios on September 2, 2021. Event Minecraft Live 2021 announced the additions and changes to both Minecraft in the form of The Wild Update which includes the voted in allay, the Deep Dark (being postponed from 1.18 to 1.19) and swamp features promised in MINECON Live 2019. Seasonal adventures in Minecraft Dungeons were also announced. On November 2, 2021, both Java and Bedrock editions of Minecraft came to Xbox Game Pass for PC and Xbox Game Pass Ultimate as part of the Minecraft PC Bundle. Both editions can be played from the Minecraft Launcher. As with MINECON Earth 2017 and Minecraft Live 2020, viewers were able to vote for a new mob to be added to the game in a future update. Each mob received its own video justifying its inclusion. The mobs that were on the vote were the glare, allay, and the copper golem. The mobs that lost the mob vote are shelved indefinitely, and may or may not be added in the future. Despite having lost the vote, the copper golem has been selected to be part of the Copper Age drop. Voting took place in two rounds. The losing mob, the glare, was eliminated from consideration after the first round. The winner of the second and final round was the allay. Videos Gallery References Navigation Navigation menu

Minecraft Live 2023 Minecraft LIVE stream October 15, 2023 01:10:39 Lydia Winters Minecraft Live 2023 was a live event held on October 15, 2023 at 17:00 UTC. Like with previous Minecraft Live events, it featured a mob vote between three mobs: the crab, the armadillo, and the penguin. This was the last Minecraft Live to have a mob vote. Contents News Minecraft Live 2023 announced the yet-unnamed at that time 1.21 update to Minecraft, which includes the voted-in armadillo, the trial chambers, several new copper blocks such as the copper bulb, new types of tuff, the crafter block, the trial spawner, and the breeze. New mobs and structures for Minecraft Legends were also announced, such as the frog mount, witches, clangers, and air chopper. Announcement The event was announced in a video which was uploaded to the official Minecraft YouTube Channel on September 13, 2023. Event There was a 20-minute Community Pre-Show right before the main event which consisted of content creators expressing about Minecraft. Like previous years, there was an announcement relating to the next major update. This year, the update that was announced was the currently unnamed at that time 1.21 Update. The update is said to focus on "combat adventures and tinkering". It includes several copper block variants, trial chambers, and armadillos - the winner of the 2023 Mob Vote. It also includes the new crafter, tuff brick types, and more enemies that spawn in the trial chambers. As with MINECON Earth 2017 and Minecraft Live 2020, 2021 and 2022, viewers were able to vote for a new mob to be added to the game in a future update. The voting began on October 13, 2023 at 17:00 UTC, and ended on October 15, 2023 at 17:15 UTC. Like the previous year, the 2023 Mob Vote Event took place in an event server on Bedrock Edition, via the Minecraft Launcher, and on minecraft.net. Additionally, players from mainland China were also able to vote in the China Edition launcher. Those who participated in the Mob Vote 2023 got the “Cherry Blossom” Minecraft Java Edition and later Bedrock Edition cape. The mob vote had three mobs to vote on: the crab, the armadillo, and the penguin. Jens Bergensten described the options as “cute animals” at the Minecraft China Developers Conference held in Chengdu, China on September 27. This was the final edition of the mob vote, as it was retired the following year. The crab spawns in mangrove swamps. The player can obtain a crab claw which allows them to place and break blocks from further away. Kelp can be used to breed crabs. Crabs also occasionally wave at players and other crabs. The armadillo spawns in savannas. It can become startled and hide in its shell when the player confronts it; it can also drop scutes (not necessarily from dying), which will be used to craft armor for wolves, offering them better protection during combat. The penguin spawns on the stony shore biome. Penguins increase the speed of the player's boat. Penguins are amphibious, living both in the water and on land. Although clumsy when walking and might fall down occasionally, the penguins are excellent swimmers and can swim as fast as the dolphins. They gather in groups. Near the end of the livestream, it was revealed that the armadillo won the vote. The percentage results were announced shortly after the end of the event on Minecraft's official Twitter account. Music Minecraft Live: 2023 (Original Soundtrack) is the soundtrack released for Minecraft Live 2023, featuring compositions by Camilo Forero and Joseph S. Djafar, which feature all of the music included as part of the event. Videos Gallery Trivia References Navigation Navigation menu

Eerie Mojang Office Party Bedrock Edition December 9, 2024, 18:00 UTC December 20, 2024, 23:00 UTC "Join our in-game event" – Minecraft.net. The Eerie Mojang Office Party (also known as Mojang Studios Mystery Live Event) was an event server, set inside a fictional version of the Mojang Studios company headquarters. It was first announced during a Minecraft Monthly episode on December 4, 2024, as a way to celebrate The Garden Awakens drop. The event ran from December 9, 2024 to December 20, 2024. The event consisted of 5 lobbies (the Main Lobby, the QA Department, the Mob Factory, the Biome Labs and the Idea Vault), 4 mini-games (Rocket Arena, Mob Smash, Biome Drop, Cloud Race), and 5 daily challenges to earn character creator items and the Mojang Office Cape. Players could earn coins by collecting them around the map or playing games which can then be spent in the shop. Contents Lobbies The server initially opens with players spawning inside a pale garden, stationed beside a projector crediting the developers, Blockworks. Progressing down a narrow path leads to the outside of Mojang Studios, predominately made out of pale oak planks, where players can find a receptionist named Nils, claiming that Jens and Agnes are looking for them. Upon speaking with them, the front gate to the studio will be opened by sentient statues of Steve and Alex. The player is then given two items upon entering, a Sticker Book to keep track of challenges, and a Teleport item that opens up an interface where you can click on which department you want to go, including the one you're currently on. Both these items are usable everywhere except the Roller Coaster, Bug Squash, and Assembly Attack games. Upon entering the Lobby for the first time, players can speak with Jens and Agnes, who explain the situation. Somehow, the release of the Garden Awakens has unleashed chaos across the studio, Jens tasking players with going to each of the four departments to solve their problems through minigames. Behind him and Agnes are a row of computers with stools and lamps themed after skulls and creeper heads, while in front of them to the side are large boards that can show the daily challenges and "office notes" when interacted with. Beside the signs, and across the left and right sides of the room, are several vindicator employees working various jobs. Closest to the office notes are cartographers with maps, alchemists with brewing stands, and documentarians rearranging a thin bookshelf. Closest to the daily challenges are armorers, with a chicken running back and forth with a gold helmet, sewers sheering a white sheep and juggling wool, and a long table with three vindicators ringing a bell. Behind the bell vindicators is a large gaping hole, infested with pale moss, several creakings peering from the darkness. In the center of the Lobby is the shop, where players can buy items from one of two vendors. Entering through the front of the Lobby, players can eye lab coats and office passes to the left and right, the first vendor on the right. The opposing vendor is on the left side, in front of dev hats, with a rack of boosts in boxes to their right, reminiscent of vinyl albums or comic books. In the center are mystery potions and eerie soup, with scattered boxes all throughout the shop. A massive cubic replica of the Earth hovers above the shop, with faces of Steve and Alex repeatedly appearing at certain locations. To the sides of the room are color coded transits to each department, and between the transits are massive pipes that transport various mobs up and down. Occasionally, a Steve appears clinging onto a pipe’s inner wall, trying to escape. They can be “saved” by clicking a button in front of the pipes, which releases massive amounts of water to flush them; soon after clicking the button, Steve can be seen crying. This action should unlock the “Flush” sticker; however, due to a bug, a player might already have the sticker unlocked, even if they have just joined the event for the first time. Between the transits to the Mob Factory and QA Department are vindicator leatherworkers, weaponsmiths, and fletchers, working on leather pelts, a diamond sword, and a target respectively. Between the transits to Biome Labs and the Idea Vault are masons, fishermen, and farmers, who are crafting stone bricks, fishing cod in a small pond, and harvesting wheat respectively. On the north and south walls of the Lobby are stained glass windows, likened after creepers, endermen, allay, and blazes, with the text in Standard Galactic Alphabet reading: CREEPER. Beside the transit to the QA Department is a queue of various mobs, as well as Sunny and Kai, where several quick gags will play. An iron golem will knock a zombie in lime away, sending it to the back, where it will scare a villager to regain its place. This in turn causes the villager to cut in line, in front of Sunny, to their irritation. A creeper will explode, sending the villager back, before an enderman picks the villager up, scaring them enough to send them back to the end of the line, renewing the cycle. The line itself leads up to a Constructor NPC, who when interacted with can initiate the rollercoaster minigame, which the player exits on the opposite side of the wall. Between the exit and entrance to the minigame is a second spawn point, where players will enter the server after all log-ins following the cold open. On the wall behind them is an array of giant clocks, showing various time zones, above a confetti cannon, several tables, many large cardboard boxes, and a cardboard cutout of Agnes and a creaking. The QA Department is dedicated to bug fixing. When joining this lobby, players fall from the yellow tube facing the exit, stationed above a flight of stairs. Periodically, a zombie will chase a villager around, having fallen out the tubes, before returning. Beside the exit area are two groups of vindicators. To the left is a small library, with vindicators reading books at small tables. To the right is what appears to be a break area, with a vindicator seemingly waiting with a cup of coffee, two playing tabletop tennis, two playing Foosball, and a fifth clapping in the direction of the ping pong game. In front of those groups are several more. Closest to the player are computer desks, with vindicators sitting and typing in various methods. To the left of those are another recreation area, consisting of just tables and three vindicators having a conversation, while to the right are two empty tables. A separate desk with Agnes is located further in the middle; by talking to her, players can enter the Bug Squash minigame. Behind this desk are the daily challenge board and the leaderboard, and beyond that a ginormous recreation of a keyboard. The keyboard is modeled after a QWERTY keyboard specifically, but with keys written in the Standard Galactic Alphabet, and an Escape key replaced with creaking eyes. Jumping on this “Eerie” key unlocks the “Typist” sticker. Beyond the keyboard is a window into the minigame, with a wall panel of various glyphs to the right, above a pale garden leak with a coin. On the lobby’s left are the Bug Files, an exhibit dedicated to the game’s bugs and curiosities. The first floor has three mobs displayed in glass cases, with Sunny and Kai present, marveling at the oddities. The exhibits include a squid which can fly (MC-936 and MC-89883) and be milked (in Java Edition Beta 1.2), a "dancing" Ender dragon, and a wither that causes fatal crashes. All three of those bugs are deemed as contained. Behind the displays are several nonfuctional drawers, and to the sides are stairs, leading up to a second floor. Upon marching up, the player can find several paintings or tapestries of bugs; literal insects, colored red, yellow, green, or cyan. In the center of the area is a fourth display, the Jeb sheep, however it has managed to escape, leaving a gaping hole in the glass. The lobby’s right houses a large parkour track, themed around video game consoles. The track begins by platforming across several red platforms across from what appears to be a smartphone or tablet, before arriving at two sets of ladders, leading to a laptop and confetti cannon. Inside the laptop are stone stair keys, as opposed to functional ones used elsewhere, with a track-pad made of polished andesite. The track continues into a PC resembling quartz bricks, with several more red platforms before transitioning to platforming across internal components. If the player falls at any point, they can climb a ladder to return to the start of the area. Once the player circles to the top of the machine, players jump onto the top of the laptop, and can find the Jeb sheep hiding in the darkness. Interacting with it will unlock the Bug-Catcher sticker, with a coin even further down. The track continues across more platforms, up to a Nintendo Switch, with the player walking across cauldrons onto more platforms, another Jeb sheep hiding nearby. On the path upwards is an iron golem, protecting a secret office that requires the player to have the Office Pass in order to enter. After climbing up another ladder and traveling a long path of platforms, the player will end up on the top, with the reward being several coins. The Mob Factory is an industrial setting where the mobs are said to be made. Players entering the Mob Factory emerge from a giant cyan tube in the ceiling, facing the left of the area. To the left of the player is a selection of defective mobs held in reddish stasis chambers, and to the right the exit to the Lobby, along with more tubes, are a pair of sheetboards (daily challenges to the left and the leaderboard to the right), and stained glass windows of an iron golem. Behind the spawn is a collection of cardboard boxes, with a confetti cannon at the top of the closest and a coin on the tallest. Beyond those are a series of conveyor belts, alternating between creepers, skeletons, TNT, and iron golems, in front of three more stasis chambers. Agnes stands in front of the area, marking the entrance to the Assembly Attack section, with observatories into each area of the minigames nearby. Near one of the windows is a coin. Directly in front of the players visiting the Mob Factory is the Redstone Engine parkour course, which begins by leaping onto several floating red platforms, onto a conveyor belt delivering boxes. Jumping across several pipes leads to some more red platforms, before the player reaches a catwalk. After going up a flight of cut copper stairs, the player reaches another conveyor belt, and must cross more red platforms, onto higher pipes. After a steep leap onto a curving pipe, the player must take a risky jump over to a ladder, and continue running across pipes. A similar stunt occurs at the end of the pipe, with the player having to reach onto a ladder on the side of a platform, and then creep onto another platform. After more platforming, the player reaches a conveyor belt suspended over the catwalks, before climbing up platforms to another set of catwalks, with a coin nearby. More platforms and pipe sequences occur, until the player must take another push towards a ladder. However, due to the presence of a pipe above, the way to reach it is instead to run off the edge and grip onto the platform below, up to another conveyor belt. From there a series of red platforms curve around to a final pipe, before reaching the top of the engine, which upon completion unlocks the “Engineer” sticker. Players can jump off the Redstone Engine’s top onto a large slime block platform. Upon entering the Biome Labs, the player will appear fall to the center of the room from a large green tube, surrounded by small dioramas depicting various biomes. Immediately before the player are Jens, who explains the setting, and Agnes, who explains that the pale garden is invading the other biome. In order to solve this problem, she offers a tutorial to the Biome Drop minigame, which can be walked into on three nearby walkways corresponding to difficulty. Immediately behind the player are small reserves of water, between flower beds with built in confetti cannons. Beside the easy version is an old growth pine taiga, with several foxes sleeping, a fan block blowing leaves around, and a window into a lush cave infested with frogs. Across from there is an ice spikes biome, with a polar bear staring at a fan creating sparkle particles. Between easy and medium is a cherry grove, with inexplicable armadillos sleeping amongst a fan blowing cherry leaves and pink petals. On the opposite side of the path is a forest, with bees floating alongside beehives, a bee nest, and honeycombs. Beside the hard option is a desert, with a camel resting beside heaters and a desert well, across from a coral reef aquarium. Beside the desert and reef are a bamboo jungle, with a panda eating bamboo amongst several sprinklers, and a window into a beach with a turtle. There are two Biome Domes players can visit containing fictional biomes, To the right, between the jungle and the desert, is a cyan biome where nearly everything is made out of diamonds. The trees resemble oak, pale oak, and spruce, but with dark oak logs and diamond cyan leaves. Closest to the entrance is one adorned with diamond cave vines and diamond resin clumps, with diamond eyeblossoms and diamond ore scattered throughout. While exploring the dome, diamond snow will fall from the top of the dome. Traveling across a fallen tree bridge over a river, players can find a small research station, with a scientist NPC standing on a dirt block amongst the cyan grass. Nearby is a small cave made of coarse dirt, with a coin inside. At the end of the lake is an ordinary spruce. To the left is the "Goodlands" biome, a more cheerful version of the badlands with flowering cacti, clovers, and flowers that generate bubbles. In the middle of the biome is an Engineer with a similar station to the Scientist, and beside them is a pond with a large assortment of flowers and a rainbow. Behind the Engineer is a mineshaft, with glowing mushrooms inside and another coin. Once the player would like to leave the dome, they can return to a fan and be lifted up to the first level. The black starry sky above the lobby features six bright “constellations” represnting a pickaxe, a sword, a diamond, a drawn bow, a creeper face and one other object. Upon entering the Idea Vault, the player will fall out of a giant purple tube, and see a build of a light bulb floating in mid-air. The lobby is by far the smallest of those featured in the server, consisting of a large acacia platform on a cloud. To the left and right of the initial drop are the leaderboard and daily challenges, alongside common decorations such as balloons, boxes, and carpeting. A few blocks away from spawn is Jens, who explains the purpose of the vault. Agnes can be found by dropping down through a ring of copper blocks, standing in a jumpsuit in front of a starting line. If spoken to, she will offer an explanation and tutorial for the Cloud Race minigame. Beside her lie several objects that are used throughout the race, allowing them to be safely tested and experimented with before beginning. Behind the drop zone is a fan, allowing players to return to Jens' area, returning through the initial tube. Behind the initial drop is a flight of stairs, leading up to oversized potted plants, several mob tunes, and a return tube to the Lobby. Games The roller coaster mostly goes above the main lobby. Near the track are 12 target balloons. The player gets a full hotbar of snowballs (9 stacks of 16, for a total of 144 snowballs) to hit them. Each hit balloon gives 10 points. A balloon quickly respawns so it can be hit by other players on the rollercoaster. Hitting a balloon twice or more doesn’t count towards the player’s score, and sends a message in chat to tell the player they have already hit the balloon. Hitting all 12 balloons during one ride is meant to unlock the “Hotshot” sticker; however, due to a bug, players coming to Eerie Mojang Office Party for the first time may already have the sticker unlocked. The player spawns on a black rounded platform and gets 60 seconds to get as many points as they can by using the Dev Hammer to squash bugs that spawn on 3×3 pillars of various heights. A pillar is colored red and black when a bug is present and is green and white otherwise, but the transition is not instanteous. Three kinds of bugs exist: a red one (the most common kind) yields 10 points, a yellow one yields 50 points, and a green one yields 10 points and adds 10 seconds to the timer. If not squashed in time after spawning, a bug burrows back into the pillar and despawns. If the player falls off a pillar, they lose five seconds and respawn at the black platform. Game ends just the players squash all bugs with Dev Hammer. Assembly Attack is a PVE game where players must kill defective mobs on a series of assembly lines, while ignoring the mobs that can appear in a normal Minecraft game. Mobs stay on the lines until provoked by hitting them; this applies both to defective and proper mobs, and a mob can also become aggressive to the players if it is hit by a different mob’s attack. Killing defective mobs grants a certain amount of points depending on what kind of mob they are, while killing proper mobs removes the same amount of points. Players are in teams of up to 4 and are each given full diamond armor, a diamond sword and a bow enchanted with Infinity. The arrows can pierce multiple mobs. Unlike the rest of the event, players can take damage and be killed by mobs or the environment, such as lava. The game is split into 5 rooms: the Skeleton Armoury [sic], the TNT Factory, the Golem Manufacture, the Creeper Production, and the Distribution Center. The first four rooms have specific mob types: skeletons, TNT, (iron) golems and creepers respectively. The Distribution Center has mobs of all four types. Players who have reached the Golem Manufacture unlock the “Operator” sticker, while reaching the Distribution Center unlocks the “Technician” sticker. The Skeleton Armoury room is active 40 seconds while the other rooms are active 50 seconds. Once a room is no longer active, the next one immediately becomes active and the player has 10 seconds to go there. If the player does not go the next room, they are teleported there. The Biome Drop is an implementation of the Dropper minigame, where the player needs to reach the bottom of a drop (more specifically, a water pond) as quickly as possible while evading obstacles during their fall. In this version, landing onto an obstacle does not kill the player by fall damage but can slow them down. Particularly noteworthy are slime blocks, which can bounce the player upwards if they don’t sneak. There are three variants of the Biome Drop with different levels of difficulty, indicated by the amount of stars (from one to three). Each is themed around a specific selection of biomes and generated structures, though all have features of the pale garden at the very bottom. These minigames look like the Elytra Ring Rush from 15 Year Journey. The Cloud Race minigame features a single-lap race with obstacles, splits, boosters and two elytra gliding sections, similar to Ace Race from the MCC x Minecraft 15th Anniversary Party event. The goal is to complete the race as soon as possible. There are a few kinds of boosters: the red arrow booster increases speed, while the cyan circle booster increases jump height. The green arrow booster allows players to do a second jump in mid-air, and is only found in front of the elytra gateways. There are also air-sucking mechanisms that can pull the player upwards. Each booster and mechanism can be tried out just before the track’s start. Using five speed boosters and jump pads in one race unlocks the “Speedy” and “Bouncy” stickers respectively. The race track is set in a variety of biomes and is decorated with holographic images of various Mob Vote mobs, both winning ones such as the armadillo and losing ones such as the iceologer. The finish has a group of villagers awaiting the players, as well as a pair of confetti cannons. Shop Two villagers that sell items for coins are found in the center of the lobby. Both villagers sell the same items. Sold Assumed to give Slow Falling for a short time similar to the other boosts. The Office Pass can be used on the QA Department Lobby to unlock a secret room found halfway up the parkour challenge. You need to have the card with you to enter. Inside the office, a pale garden has overgrown, with hanging moss seeping from the ceiling and pale moss floor. A balcony looking out over the keyboard window is nearby, as well as a computer which can be used to monitor several points in the area. At the end of the room there is a coin and an Item Stash that will give you many items found in the shop, including three mystery potions, three eerie soup, four speed boosts, and four jump boosts. Adding up the value of each item (2500 coins) and subtracting the cost of the card (1000 coins), the player can receive a value of 1500 coins. Challenges Players can earn up to 17 stickers by completing challenges. These stickers appear in the player's sticker book. Note that due to a server bug, the first two stickers, "Hotshot" and "Flush", might already be unlocked for players who have joined the event for the first time. The "Apprentice", "Journeyman" and "Master!" stickers have additional descriptions when completed. However, due to another bug, the descriptions for the "Apprentice" and "Journey" stickers when completed are swapped. Although the Agnes NPC at the lobby states that there is a "special reward" for completing the entire sticker book, there has not been found to be one. During the first 5 days of the event, daily challenges appear on the whiteboards in lobbies at 18:00 UTC. Players can complete these challenges to earn exclusive character creator items. These challenges can be completed at any point during the event. Due to a bug, the Mojang Office Cap became unobtainable, likely due to the fact that the Day 3 challenge for collecting 1000 coins is automatically marked as completed upon first entering the server, despite the player never accumulating any coins at all, causing the server to never register that the player completed one challenge.
