LAST UPDATED: 10/29

Make everything as simple as possible, but not simpler. -- Albert Einstein

Latest Changelog:l

New Website:
- Visit www.coolcubed.enjin.com to check it out! You can sign up and stuff but remember its still under construction, when its finished you will be able to connect to it normally with www.coolcubed.net

New Map:
- Current map will be provided for download(it's already been saved so world changes as of 10/29 will not be included in the downloadable version - We might re-download the map depending on how long 1.4 takes)
- You will not be able to carry over private property(items, inventories, houses, etc.). Click here to apply to have your stuff saved.
- New map was decided in order to revitalize the economy, refresh the survival theme, and clean up the illegitimate items.

More Plugins:
- More anti-cheating measures
- Better Auto-Ranking plugin(allows you to track playtime - unfortunately veteran users won't have accurate data)
- Sign Shops for easier player-driven economy
- PvP Toggling - Warmups and Cooldowns for commands will ensure it won't be abused

More Donation Packages:
- Able to sell items specifically.
- Donators will only be able to place/break blocks(can't use chests, drop items, etc.). Need input on this one.

Adjusted Ranks: This section is the most tentative and will likely change even without player input. Donation benefits are most likely to change.
- Teleportation commands now charge a small amount(/warp costs 10, /spawn costs 5, etc.)
- Changed tags and permissions up for balance
- Time required for Member increased to 5 hours(~.5 weeks)
- Achieve 'Cool' rank after 10 hours(~1.5 weeks)
- Achieve 'VIP' rank after 25 hours(~1 month) or by donating

Adjusted Rules:
- Griefing will no longer be tolerated even in unclaimed areas(might change again, we decided to disallow it because ugly griefed builds were piling up, but maybe the new claiming tutorial will reduce incidence rate for unprotected builds - if that's the case limited griefing will be allowed again(nazi signs, purposely ugly buildings, lava grief will never be tolerated - only stealing items or destroying unprotected houses)

Adjusted Economy:
- No more adminshop - It was spawning items and wasn't a true economy since prices were determined by us...
- Player-Driven economy - start shops using the easy-to-use signshop plugin, start service industries(interior decoration, bodyguards, etc) and use /pay to pay other players
- auto-paying jobs will still be used but payment levels will be reduced
- teleportation commands such as /back /tpa /home /warp and /spawn will now charge players a small amount(5-15 coins)

Updated plugins:
- Haven't updated plugins for a while, new features and chat formatting(rank-tag changes, /info command changes, more intuitive experience overall)

Expected release...shortly after 1.4 is released for bukkit

More details soon!
