The Mighty Castle of Banned

Welcome to The MeepTimes, the twice-monthly update to keep the community in the loop with what’s new, behind the scenes, and in the works. This will be published every other Friday.

Server Updates

Parkour
Rebalanced with new prizes, Parkour is officially back up! Go to /warp parkour to get started!

Boomo
Becoming the first minigame back online, is none other than the infamous Boomo! Use /warp Boomo, and blast the competition away!

Mail Updates
Starting now we plan to mail out every edition of The MeepTimes to our mailing list about 25,000 people will receive these updates! Yay for simple advertisements!

Forum picture
Finally the day has come we updated our background photo to the new Meep spawn!

Head Trader
You may now use the head trader again in spawn or at /warp towns, now with more than 1,700 different heads!

Bugs Squashed

Shulker Boxes
Now your precious items are fully protected within your Shulker box!

Community Events

Staff NPCs
Near the /warp forest, a small garden now contains an NPC of all current staff members, so head on over there to catch up on the current team members, and their chosen NPC!

Pigs of Legend
Some victorious armies are formed of the strongest around, others of the most ingenious, but the most successful army on the server is the Pig Army, which conquered the town of Legend on the 23rd of January. All were invited to disguise themselves as a pig or pigman to join the fun. See pictures here.

Staff Photo
Ever seen all the current staff in one place? If you answered no to this, you have probably not seen the latest staff picture! See here for the thread, and credits to @OhSimple for taking this picture.

Recently Accepted Suggestions

Llama Disguise!
It’s official, llamas are the most popular mob since polar bears decided to start killing people. Once added, you can become a llama too!

Discord Command
Need the link to the Meepcraft Discord in a flash? Now you just type /Discord for the link to pull up!

Welcome to Meepcraft!
Like welcoming new players to the server? Well this can be hard to do when no one knows when a new player joins! See the joining message once again with the re-addition of this feature, and welcome them to the Meepcraft family!

Humans Of MeepCraft - Feat. @HeyImTiff

How did you first find the server?
I found the server by searching in the category “towny” via Google.

What do you enjoy the most about the server?
I enjoy chatting with other meeps that are in the server and also building my town I am currently in. It’s what I do. Meeps here are very social, which is what I love the most.

What is the best way to blow up a house?
Hmm, let’s see . . . Just trap the whole house with TNT, and at the end just shoot up some fireworks for celebration!

So, is your name really Tiff?
My full name is Tiffany, but I like to be called Tiff mostly.

If you were given a million Meebles right now, what would you spend them on?
I’d probably save them! If I had to spend them, I would maybe spend it on a new town or nation. Either that, or maybe give it out for real money, but only to spend on something important.

What is your favorite Star Wars movie?
Oh man, that’s a hard question. I think I would say Star Wars: The Force Awakens because I’ve only watched five of them total.

Anything else you’d like to add?
Vote me for staff! Nah, just kidding! ^_^
