Server downtime
« on: May 17, 2015, 05:53:18 PM »
Due to recent lag, we have decided to take down the server shortly to work on that particular issue. Now, do not worry this will only last a day precisely on Saturday 23rd of this current month. After that, server should run smoother and you may resume your gameplay.

Nevertheless, we will not let our loyal members sit there waiting for the server to come back up again. Thanks to our staff, we organized a few events to pass your time! From contests to just games for fun, we made sure you would at least be kept busy and share nonsense and game related ideas.

For our SM+, mumble will stay available if you want to use it as well as our skype chat.

The contests we have prepared:
  • Photography contest
  • Sentinelcraft Drawing contest
  • Crossword Puzzle

So remember to keep in touch in the forums! ;)

May I remind everyone that these contest are meant to be a way of passing time when the server will be down. While uploading a picture you took a few weeks ago is not against the rules, it defeats the purpose of all this. Also we added the rule that you can only submit 1 picture for each contest. Good luck everyone!

Your free to donate money so we can increase the prize money.. ::) after all we're hosting this to entertain you, not make you rich, and we're paying it out of our own pockets.

It is Saturday midnight to saturday 11.59 PM UTC. So you have 23 hours and 59 minutes to submit everything.

Well since we're not accepting submission yet anyway you have plenty of time to look for the picture, or make a new one.
