The WINNERS of the Exoplanet Event are finally announced! Read what the judges had to say!

I also wanted to take this (rare) opportunity to say, I miss you, PMCer's. Back in October when we made this announcement, we thought after a few weeks, maybe at most a month, I would have a little more time and be in a groove with our small human and return to writing the Weekly's and be involved in this wonderful community once again. Turns out, she runs the show and requires basically every second of my time. She's lucky she's cute. 😛 I don't know when I'll start having time to write the newsletter again, but just know that it's always on my mind as are you 💙 Hope you are all doing great and are happy and healthy! Keep creating, playing, and being you!

Love,
Mrs. PMC

There are 2 Days left in the review phase of the Love Poems blog contest! In this phase, YOU can help your favorite poems make it to the finalists by diamonding them! There are short and sweet poems, long poems, a poem about a toaster, poems about donuts. The community really came up with some great poetry for this contest and we guarantee you'll smile!

Who's familiar with Advent Calendars? They're quite fun if you ask us, and a great way to kick off and celebrate the month of December! Did you know they date back to 19th century in Germany? The first one was made in 1851!

Advent calendars are a special calendar used to count the days until Christmas. Some are 24 days, some are longer, counting down the days until the New Year. The point is, every day of December you get a treat. Modern days you can find Advent Calendars of various themes ranging from different chocolates to different toys.

We're telling you this because now, you can have your very own in Minecraft! Every day of December, you can get yourself some free items using the Advent Calendar data pack Bertiecrafter made here! Higher tiered treats are included around Christmas and New Year's Eve. How cool!



Share your experiences, the items you received and hoped to get on the Discussion thread!

Who's ready for and EPIC FIREWORKS show?!

Show starts at approximately 4PM (about 15 minutes from now)! We will wait a few minutes to give everyone a chance to join in. Afterwards, we will gather for a group photo so be sure to stick around!

What fun we're having on the server!!

The information for the Hypixel meet up has been posted! Remember, there will be just 1 group in the first hour; in the following hours there will be 2 groups for optimal participation!

We also launched the Papercraft Photography Competition. It will run for the entire month! We added some accessories to Paper Craft so you can decorate and create really cool scenes. We encourage you to use them!

In addition, we've added a GROUP PHOTO to our schedule, to be held after the fireworks at 4PM EST! We hope everyone is having just as much fun as we are! See you later!
