Starting 2023 with a Bang

As the year came to an end there were big plans to send off 2022 in spectacular form. After two weeks of planning, designing and building from the Leon team, a spectacle to behold was unveiled. Our very own Eybwam took the lead on designing a Redstone contraption that would send 2022 off with a bang. Eybwam was not alone in this endeavor, EtaThetaZeta was responsible for the countdown clock inside the nearby skyscraper while SummerFower, Val, and Eddy all lent their tools to copying the design over from a creative test world. The end result was four spectacular shows planned so that the maximum number of cyberdogs could attend the showing. If, however, you were not able to see it in person, a few members recorded the display for YouTube and future news broadcasting. It is worth noting that no deaths occurred at this event! Good job all.

The Cyberdog Movers

With 2022 coming to an end, we saw a massive influx of new players. Not only did we update to a new version of Minecraft, but we also saw the release of the second base tour video from our own Endergod, ReNDoG. They ushered in a large influx of new players which put our transit systems to a great test. We proudly have a variety of transportation systems at your disposal. Anything from horse back riding through the open servers to barreling down an ice road in the burning nether. We promise that we have cleared the lava for you. All these transit systems have been built by a dedicated player base on the server. Work began at the start of the survival five season and continues to push forward into new chunks everyday. One dedicated player has dug through 1,964,151 blocks of Netherrack while building the NTN tunnels, Nether Transport Network.

These tunnels are in all four worlds and currently reach out to the twenty thousand block marker on each of the four survival servers. Workers continue to push further out hoping to reach the forty thousand mark before the season ends. The NTN is always looking for volunteers whether it be for fifteen minutes or two hour dig session. The group is always friendly and welcoming to every player who joins them. Ask in discord and you will be directed towards the NTN/SRN discord page to be kept up-to-date on events and building sessions.

Taking to the Rails

While the NTN is digging away the SRN, Server Rail Network makes continued progress in the over-world. Currently, they are only found on two of the four servers, but what a sight they are. Each rail line leaving spawn has amazing views of the spawn region while also passing over truly breath taking bridges constructed by even more volunteers. In the early parts of 2023, the SRN hopes to open a number of different stations along its rail lines. Speaking from personal experience, station openings are always a blast to be at with the occasional death mixed in.

Throughout the coming months the SRN will continue to open new stations as well as few more line extensions. Keep an eye out on discord for these announcements, all are welcome to join us when a line opens. Like the NTN they are always happy to have players lend their time and tools to a project.

Looking for builders this year

If tunnels and rails don’t do it for you, might I suggest the CSC, Connected Seas Collation. Currently, it is a network of boating stations surrounding the seas around the spawn region. Management has grand plans to expand further. Who hasn’t started their Minecraft adventure in a boat trying to find the easiest way to navigate around a land mass. The Collation is currently looking for builders to design and build their very own CSC station. A competion will be held soon to locate the best design(s). Keep an eye on discord for an announcement for official rules and times of the build battle.

Change in leadership

With a new year on our hands, the NTN has promoted a few of its most prominent members to leadership roles to help guide the continued efforts of reaching forty thousand blocks. AwesomeTom21, Mika_Panda, and Hatterskye have all been promoted to world managers while Colliecolie and GG553 are being promoted to joint-project leaders of the NTN! Congratulations to each of you as you push forward.
