Planet X Weekend Give-Away

98.183.74.179:11100

I'm running a small give-away this weekend on Planet X. If you log-in and mention this blog post to me you get a $2000 cash bonus on the server. That's enough to buy a diamond pick, with some left over.

Check out Planet X! Build anywhere!

Planet X now on Spigot

Planet X server is finally running on spigot and not CraftBukkit, so hopefully it should be very stable. At the very least I believe the server will restart itself if it crashes.

All McMMO and Economy files from Planet X have been saved, so even though the world is new you stats won't be.

I still have the old map, but the functionality is so busted its best to start fresh and fix a few problems:

1. The new /warp spawn is very small and shouldn't be too hard for new players to understand.
2. You can build much closer to where you spawn, as a result.
3. You won't have to look too hard to find all the shops. 98.183.74.179:11100 Come play!

Planet X New IP

98.183.74.179:11100

Planet X is up and running while Paladins is under maintenance.

Paladins Two

Hello Crafters.

I'm writing to you to day to first thank those of you who stuck with us with all the downtime, interruptions, and lack of updates. While we both (Vell and Robot) have plans, designs, and hopes for the server, we have a lot of problems that we need to fix.
I'm soliciting opinions on how we can fix and improve the server. With widespread problems with the economy, inflation, and unbalanced plugins, it might be best to start fresh. A fresh start, Paladins Two, would allow us to begin with a more balanced approach to creating a fun, cooperative, but slightly competitive environment.
What do you think about our current economy? The ranks? Flight? Dungeons? Jobs? McMMO? Let us know in the comments or send us an email at PaladinsServer@gmail.com or /mail Vellusian.

Thanks for playing with us!

Planet X - Interim Server

While the main server is busy traveling across the country, you can still play with your buddies on Planet X, our secondary server hosted by Robot. Planet X used to be a seasonal event on Paladins, but it has evolved into a thing of its own!

The IP is.....

98.183.84.168:11100 

It's got McMMO, PVP, Adventure, Quests, Economy, Farming and more!

At the heart of it all is Spawn, a vast medieval city filled with shops, quests, and secrets. The server is inspired by dungeon-crawling RPGs like Ultima, Wizardry, The Bard's Tale, NetHack, Fallout 3, Elder Srolls, Final Fantasy, Dragon Warrior, and Dwarf Fortress. Like all good RPGs, there is a massive dungeon below the city for your to explore, if you've got the guts the treasure is yours. The designer is constantly adding new features, so the RPG elements are constantly growing. You can gamble at slot machines, battle monsters and sell their drops, or wander off and settle down for a peacful life of farming, only traveling to town to sell your harvest.

Or maybe all that hard work sounds terrible, and you'd rather just lurk around town, stealing from houses and fighting duels to the death on one of the many dark, twisty alleyways. Maybe you have wanderlust, and seek adventures in far away villages.

Visit the Adventurer's Guild in-game to learn more about the RPG aspects of the server.

Level up. Earn gold. Become the hero you were born to be.

Unlike most Minecraft servers, you won't have to do the same-old thing. Instead, you can use the Minecraft world to supplement your progress through the Planet X adventure. A good example of this is farming: wheat is a great way to make money and requires you to farm outside of town, and then sell your crops in town like any other RPG would have you do.

Unlike most other games, everything won't be the same forever: the town, the quests, and everything evolve as part of the dynamic world. Enjoy today, for tomorrow the world might be a different place.

Or, just run off a few thousand blocks and become a hermit. Every planet needs hermits.

Journey to Planet X!

Expected server outage

This is still a ways off, but I need to make sure everyone has advanced notice of what's going on with the server. I expect to be moving the server in mid-to-late December. This process will mean that the server will be down for at least a week, if not longer; however, I fully expect to return to normal operation (maybe 1.8?) by our 2nd birthday (Jan 1st). Do not be alarmed if during this period the server is down for a prolonged period, we will return as soon as possible.

Also, thanks again for all the hundreds of regulars that have joined us over the years. It's been fun (most of the time) and I hope you'll play with us in the future. We're always trying to update the server to make things entertaining and challenging and if you don't like what we're doing, then let us know (don't whine though, it takes a lot of effort on top of our lives to keep a community going) and just wait to see what we do next.

As always, you can email us with questions, concerns, and complaints. Or use in-game mail or hit up the Twitter feed.

Congrats Annie, who found the Golden Grail on Planet X!
