Hello, and happy December! Lots has been happening on Nogard recently, and I’m excited to tell you about some of the things we’ve been working on.

New Prison Kits

Nogard has a couple of new Prison kits, including Titan, Serpent, Hydra, and Velox, and the prices of all previous kits have been altered! That means the starter kit is now $0. Titan is a new kit that’s available at a reasonable price for anyone to buy, and it’s intended to be a step up from the Starter kit while not being as expensive or good as the other kits. The Serpent kit is available to Wyvern donors, the Hydra kit is available to Dragon donors, and the Velox kit is available to those with prestige α, and all come with plenty of good perks. You can see what each kit comes with by typing /kits in-game and right-clicking on each one!
 

 

Christmas is Coming to Nogard!

Nogard’s lobby is now completely Christmas-themed thanks to Nogard’s server builder, BucketMuncher! It’s got lots of fun decorations for you to explore and discover, and the centerpiece has been replaced by a giant Christmas tree! Join today to check it out and hang out with your friends! There might also be a surprise in store for players on Christmas day…

Also, don’t forget about Toby the Wolf’s Christmas Advent Calendar gifts! Go talk to him in the lobby and click the “Advent Calendar” button once per day for all of December to get an additional free gift!
 

 

Other Updates

• There is now a new GUI for the /ranks command! It has lots more useful info now and is presented in a much more user-friendly way.
• Skyblock & Prison Crate Keys are now available as a prize in the Vote Crate, but the percentage is incredibly low.
• Fixed a bug where you couldn’t actually PVP with anyone in the PVP arena in Prison
• All Mob Arena kits have been changed completely so that you can actually survive the game long enough to earn some money playing!

Good evening! This month, we had more votes than we’ve had since July of 2017, which is just simply incredible. Since we’ve had so many votes, the prizes for the top 3 voters for this month will be increased slightly than what they would usually be. All of these votes have attracted a few new players as well, and the votes are much appreciated!

Here are Nogard’s top voters for November, 2018:

1. campbellclan (140 votes)
2. KeroSane (72 votes)
3. Scraner (70 votes)

Again, thanks so much! Stay tuned for some cool new updates 😉

Good evening! Here are some things that were changed recently.

• The “About” page received an overhaul, and now contains way more useful information than before. It’s intended to better introduce new players to the server while also serving as a reference guide for common commands and such. Check it out if you ever get stuck with something!
• The tab list and the name tags above players now show purchased tags, donor ranks, in-game ranks, your nickname color if set, and your AFK status if on. Also, the tab list menu should no longer have errors counting the amount of players on the server.
• Visitors to your Skyblock island no longer have the ability to use doors, trapdoors, fence doors, pressure plates, furnaces, enchanting tables, and other items of the sort. This is to prevent unwanted access.
• The limit for hoppers and droppers in Skyblock has been more than doubled.
• The issue in 1.13 where typing too fast would result in a kick for spamming has been fixed!
• Also in 1.13, the auto-complete command feature while typing a command has been disabled to prevent snooping around in the plugins.

Thanks for reading, and hope to see you online soon!

Good evening,

Nogard now supports Minecraft version 1.13.2! There are some bugs that still persist, such as fences and doors not working properly and random spam kicking occurring, and unfortunately these can’t be fixed anytime soon. Nonetheless, you can now join Nogard anywhere between Minecraft 1.12 and 1.13.2 with minimal errors!

Here are some updates that were added to the Nogard website recently:

• Added some pagination buttons on the bottom of the news feed / home page.
• Added a “Read More” button at the bottom right of each news post so the user has something pretty to click on.
• Added the IP to the header of the mobile site so users know what the IP is.
• Added a tiny bit of space around user icons so they aren’t squished next to the display name
• Added a massive red bar at the top of the website above the header that appears whenever the server is offline and is hidden at all other times. Now you’ll be able to know whether or not the server is down by visiting any page on the site!

In other news, over the course of around 14 hours between October 22nd and 23rd, Nogard experienced some downtime. This was due to Nogard’s host having some automatic updates firing too early and triggering errors, and was completely out of my control. This should be fixed now, and no data was lost.

Thanks for reading, and hope to see you on again soon!
