About
Every 60 seconds you will get a complete random chaotic effect
- Such as: Spawn a mob, get an item, or something crazier, like an anvil apocalypse or start a raid!
- There are currently a total of 175 effects!
- Click this to view the list with all effects!
- Most effects last 3 minutes, but in some cases they last for 1 minute, 30 seconds or less
- There's also two modes with less cooldown on effects, so you get one every 30 or 15 seconds, but all the effects will last for less time time

Spectator Voting Mode
The datapack also includes a mode for voting!
- On spectator voting mode, spectator (the gamemode) players can vote for the effects the runner will be getting
- Every 30 seconds, spectators will get a poll with 3 effects to vote for, then another 30 seconds after, the effect will be applied (one effect per minute)
- If there is a tie, a random effect from the poll will be selected
- Also includes a mode with more cooldown on effects, so you get one every 1:30 minutes, but they last 50% more of their usual time
For now, it only works with players inside the world on spectator mode, since I don't have modding knowledge to do something like a Twitch chat voting thingy (pls help me if you know how)

Want to report a bug, suggest an effect or a change?
Go to my github issues and create a new one. In the beginning of the title put something like (Effect) or (Bug) to label it, and then type the thing you wantEnjoy the chaos!
I'm not that good at making datapacks, and this is the first time I post a big one online, but I just wanted to make this since I had so much fun watching and playing runs with the GTA Chaos Mod! Thanks to Lordmau5, pongo1231, Bart de Bever, and Parik27 for making it!Twitch chat voting mode?
As I said above, I don't have any modding knowledge, so I can't figure out a way to make this happen. I thought I could get someone who knows to help me do it, but I don't know anyone. So, if you like this datapack and have/know someone who knows how to make mods for the game and implement this, send me a DM on discord! Shaaaaaaaaaron :)9 Update Logs

Have something to say?
I was trying to play with this datapack, but Minecraft told me that it was made for a newer version of the game. I updated to the latest version, but Minecraft still said it was for a newer version. I then noticed that this datapack is actually for version 1.21.11; I switched to that specific version, yet Minecraft *still* claimed that the datapack was for a newer version.Proof of beating it is on my YT (Molded Cheese) Stream ended bout an hour or two ago
Really fun, but can feel really frustrating when you get Mounts of Mayhem
