Hey everyone.
We've switched from Mumble to Discord for voice and text chat. Discord features a web app, so you don't have to install it to try it. Join us at sno.sh: Discord and, if you like it, you can download the client here.
You can install Discord on your desktop and phone for Windows, Mac, Android, and iOS. Linux support is coming soon.

Hi guys,
Sorry, this is short and sweet. I have to get going, but forgot to post this last night.
First and foremost, if I haven't said this before, welcome Elgenzay to the administrators team. He's doing a rocking job on his first full week, including:
Other things that happened:

First and foremost, if I haven't said this before, welcome Elgenzay to the administrators team. He's doing a rocking job on his first full week, including:
- Lots of well needed maintenance on LOC
- Lots of less-needed maintenance on LOP
- A brand new, super awesome LOP spawn
- Test ALL the things, better than before
- Being everywhere at once without sleeping
Other things that happened:
- Configuration error from last week caused people to not keep their plot ownership
- In response, I've re-cleared all LOC plots and we still have to import them. If you built in the last week, sorry! You didn't have much time to!
- LOC view distance raised to 10 from 8
- Cobi created a new modpack for LOF
Hi all, it's been a while, hasn't it?
Do you know what's important for Minecraft? Infrastructure. What did we improve? Our infrastructure.
We purchased (well, rented) two more servers and decommissioned one, spreading our massively intensive game infrastructure across four servers. This has greatly improved stability and speed of our servers (tl;dr: 20 ticks per second!). However, this forced us to invest lots of time in reworking concepts that had only assumed we ran Minecraft on only one server, like our configuration files (mapping different IPs to each server) and even our configuration management system! It's amazing and painful to note that Legion of Anarchy with it's 180GB world requires a server all to itself!
During this weekend, we've done lots of in-game maintenance of game modes

- Imported three new parkour courses to LOP -- Skydive, Castle, Icicle. (SnoFox & Elgenzay)
- All LOP courses teleport you to spawn before death
- Except Admin Parkour...
We've moved out network off of the older hardware that was hosting it onto newer hardware. All of the lag issues should be resolved. Thanks for your patience while we moved things.
We've had some downtime over this weekend, and more lag than is acceptable for Legion recently. This has been caused by faulty hardware. We're working on fixing it right now. It should be back up soon and on better hardware than ever.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
... is today.
There is a sale on the donor store. There are likely to be festivities tonight and this weekend.

Last night, Cobi and I had renovated the LOA spawn to be more friendly towards PvP and newbs in general. Here are the changes we've made, in verbose.
1. We have completely disabled PvP inside of the red spawn line. There is no longer a timer that enables PvP.
2. We have added a new, blue spawn line (referred to as a "protected zone"). This zone disables block explosion damage, so you cannot create giant creeper holes or set off a ball of TNT.
3. We have slow block regeneration inside the protected zone, to allow for a clean PvP area.
4. We have added a message when you completely exit spawn regeneration area. That is the farthest extent of our world modification. Once you see this message, our code is no longer helping you. You're on your own in the Anarchy wilderness!
5. We have moved the main spawn back to its original position, at around 0, 300. You can still reach the -110,000 by -110,000 area via a portal at the main spawn.
We have more in store for you all, so stay tuned!...

Edit: Warning! We have discovered that the plot controller of LOC (something we haven't written) does NOT support name changes! You will need help from a staff member to regain your plot after a name change. We will still periodically clear unused plots, name-change or not! --SnoFox
Mojang announced a couple of weeks ago that name changes would be available today. They have enabled that feature. Legion fully supports name changes. You will not lose your items or anything else that pertains to you (permissions, clans, mutes, jails, etc.).
If you run into any issues, please let us know by e-mailing help@l-s.co.
