Server spawn changes with seasons

[NathanialJones]

Well it's what it sounds like the server spawn can be decorated according to holidays
Like Halloween will be pumpkins all around and Easter there could be hidden chests or christmas there would be a big tree and so on.
It would be really fun!

Ps I'm not sure but will this be the smp servers first Halloween and Christmas?(awnsered) yes.

No, the server has had one christmas for sure. I am not for sure about all the other holidays because I do not know the date smp opened. If you really want to have decorate for the holidays, do it at your house. I have heard that one year on classic, they put a big christmas tree up. Just throwing some ideas out there.

Jan 15 was the date the current all server went up if I remember correctly

I actually think this is a good idea!

In the member world, there is lots of spare space to build a giant tree, glow stone tinsel, wool baubles!

Jan 7th was when the SMP server upgraded to 1.0 (you were just a few days off )

So, are we thinking about making this? I truly think this could work.

You know, I, personally, do like that idea and it could be done, but it would have to be done by the admins, since they are the only ones that can modify the spawn for something like this, or optical would have to temporarily allow the staff to modify the spawn for things like this (and I doubt he would do that).

It'd be a good idea, but the resources for doing this is limited.

However, OPs & other people could help build one outside of the spawn, then all the admins have to do is world edit it into a spawn area & hey presto, bob's your uncle

Just get Terrewee, he made the giant statue with the sword.

You do realize that the current spawn is huge...

Doing a copy/ paste is not going to be that simple. It can be done, yes, but not without server-side consequences.

Wouldnt these only be temorary lag spikes? just a MAJOR lag spike? maybe kick everyone and do a quick copy/paste before they come back on?

Does it matter if the spawn is huge? It's not like we're pasting the spawn, just a christmas tree

Just wanted to add that we should make a Maanora so it's religiously equal.
Also admins could put pumpkins around ( it wouldnt take that long) for halloween
Everyone great ideas lets see if we can get this done! This could be In opticraft history books!

[iGenerator]

terrewee had that statue made long before the new world was even thought about being made

[NathanialJones]

Ps remember this is about all holidays, not just Christmas, halloweens coming up!
