ChoiceGaming

Hello everyone on WL_SMP.
Our WL_SMP server is now running in Creative mode, so you will have access to all blocks and you can fly.
So now is the time to finish your buildings and take those screenshots, that was very hard to take earlier.
Good luck.

Please follow our latest news here

Thanks @general1712 for the good idea. I will happily throw something together

Everyone please post your videos of fights,favorite moments, funny moments, or whatever you want from your time on ChoiceCraft.

I will be editing a little send off montage for the server

In 2010, I picked up this odd little indy game that was still in beta. It was basically legos with zombies, and you could build whatever you want, a complete sandbox. After poking around in single player for two weeks, I gave up Minecraft forever... until I discovered multiplayer. I found a neat little whitelist server called Minecraft.dk, and that would set my path for the next six years. My team built competitively against other teams to build the most spectacular, grandiose builds we could. Some of our best competition came from Sandal's team, and Scavy's team. Scavy got selected to be an Admin, and Sandal and I eventually wound up as Senior Mods.

In late 2011, Scavy joined Nikmi and Claush to start a Skyblock server, I got promoted to Admin at MC.dk, and Sandal went off to start his Spinning Pig Factions server. Before long, we started talking about how we could bring it all together into the big, grand idea that became ChoiceCraft. By July of 2012, ChoiceCraft was rocketing out of the starting gate. With great volunteer staff and admins, an awesome community, and lots of excitement, we couldn't add new server styles fast enough.

But great things don't last forever. The EULA changes last year killed many Minecraft servers, and the Bukkit fiasco ruined the Minecraft community's trust in Mojang. With Microsoft now in charge, Mojang is focusing on small servers and leaving us and ours out in the cold. ChoiceCraft has weathered the changes for as long and as...

Hey all,

So just wanted to give you an update. Firstly if you have not seen yet you can link your steam account to the forum account. What is cool about this is it allows us to see the most played games.

And CSGO holy hell that's a lot of time....well good news. @Pesky_Penguin and @jjrockin are setting up a CSGO server. This is new for us, so for now it is closed access, once we have perfected it we will open it up for all of you, and your friends.

Also as some of you may know I am obsessed with Fallout.



SO 299 hours of that is me, so that means the rest of this community has only played 68 hours of Fallout 4. Which is sad.

Yes I have no life...

Okay so we had a list of things to do for the server.

1) Pig Mall is open, we are using a new plugin for the region management, and it may screw up. We are waiting for our developers to work on ChoiceSRM which will bring us greater stability. In the mean time and as of the time I am writing this, the mall is open at 25k a week.

2) Loot Crates, as some of you know I did a complete re-write of the items you recive in Loot Crates. Instead of items focused on building like Skyblocks, Factions has a more pvp friendly selection such as iron kits, diamond kits, all forms of brew able potions, both drinkable and splash, grapples, and some cool blocks that are a little harder to come by.

3) Moving away from bans, so the official jail is open in Vault 12. Staff will me more likely to toss you in there, then to ban you. I like it, because I made it =D

4) Also if you are tired of trying to figure out who is invis attacking you. Try /near! it wont show you where they are, but it will tell you they are around you. Its now included as part of the Captain (or General not sure) Donor pack, as well as /afk.

If you haven't seen yet Choicecraft is officially Choicegaming.net

So what is changing? Not a ton. We will still offer the support to the minecraft servers you know and love, but we will be rapidly expanding to other games and platforms. There will also be changes in staff titles so that Game Admins/Clan Leaders can be easily identified. Further more as mentioned in @EmrysK post, we now have steam integration.

Currently we have an Area for Clash of Clans on the forum, and @KVMS will be the clan leader for that. If you want to play just search "Choicegaming" on the clan screen.

Also for those of you that are Dirty Console Peasants I will be starting a CGN clan for a black ops 3 on PS4. Once things get going I will be starting a BF4, and when it's released a BF1, server.

We will be looking at a CSGO crew, and maybe @Entamer can start an overwatch crew....who knows the sky is the limit.

As we continue to tweak the forums to make them more friendly to other games besides just Minecraft, we'll be adding new features to make it easy for our community to meet up with Minecraft friends for other games.

The first of those new features is now online. You can now associate your Steam account with your forum account! In addition to the perk of "single sign on", your Steam status will show on your posts and your profile, so your friends can see what game you're playing and if you're online! In addition, new users will be able to join using their SteamID and join the forums even faster.

As some of you may have noticed the donations for factions are not running as smoothly as we would have liked.

The core reason for this is due to factions running 1.7 and the core of our network being 1.9. Pesky as well as the global/developer team are aware and are working on it. We have the solution its just a matter of implementing it. So on behalf of the Factions team, thank you for your support, and we are sorry for the inconvenience. The way Buycraft works is when it sees a payment it executes a command to the server. Buycraft is not talking to CCF.

In the mean time, when you donate or plan to donate track down an admin, and we will manually execute the commands that need to be ran. Once again thank you for your support and understanding.

The issue will be resolved in the coming days.
