Another great weekend of UHC has passed and we look forward to Season 19.
Lets have a great turnout for Season 19! I would love to have a lot of you guys come out and have fun in a great UHC that I know Realm of Reckoning is capable of! We will be doing Random Teams since it wins the vote every week anyways, unless we have a number that doesn't divide evenly like 13 or 17, then we will do FFA. If you haven't played it before I highly recommend trying it! It's a very exciting way to play Minecraft and results in lots of funny conversation and good rivalries!
Do not be shy if you are new, we were all new at one point in time, and lets not forget MrDraynth won in only his Second UHC!
A microphone is not necessary for participation but it is highly recommended to communicate quickly during times of battle or warning teammates of creepers/skeletons/etc.
VOTE FOR TIME
The poll for the UHC start time will be locked Friday Night at Midnight so make sure to put your vote in by then.
UTC stands for Coordinated Universal Time (I know the acronym doesn't line up, but that's what it is! ) so be sure you are familiar with what that time means to you before you vote. If you have a different time you'd like, select the other block and post below the time you prefer.
Check out the rules here:
Familiarize yourself with the rules and be sure to avoid breaking them. Rule violations will result in a kick from the UHC and possibly a suspension from future UHC's. These rules were established with fun and fairness to all players in mind. If you have questions please ask because we'd hate to kick anyone from a UHC due to lack of knowledge or understand. The simplest rule is No Branch Mining. This is simple to follow, just ask yourself, "What am I mining stone here for?" and if the answer is "to find gold/diamonds/maybe a cave is this way" then do not do it. If the answer is "I heard a cave sound/bat/water/lava/zombie/etc. coming from this direction and I want to find it." then you are fine.
If you meet your unfortunate demise you may chat for a few moments for a sportsmanship good game, or to see how your teammates finish the fight. Please do not spoil anything by typing into chat or talking into skype "HOW MANY WOLVES DID YOU HAVE OMG?!" or "WOW FLAME BOW OMG GG" or "WOW NOW I GUESS YOU HAVE MY FULL DIAMOND ARMOR, LOL!!" Lots of UHC is about secrecy and hiding your advantages. If you give away something about your opponents then other players can plan strategy around information that they did not obtain themselves. If you have been eliminated from the UHC that doesn't mean it is over for everyone, please respect the other players still in the game and leave without raging, insulting, or spoiling.
Unless you are explicity told before the UHC begins that you may stay in game for spectator mode please leave or a mod will be forced to remove you. This can be annoying since our mods are also playing the game and it is possible that other players or mobs may attack them while they are busy typing in commands.
