November Recap
Written by H1N9

Hello Festive Fruitsters!  It is hard to believe that the silly season is upon us once again, but here we are.  As usual our busy team of elves have been hard at work hanging lights, wrapping gifts, sprinkling snow and trying to stop H1 from eating all the fruit cake.  We have lots in store for you all over the next few weeks, so be sure to keep reading to see what is in store.

Santa’s Village Build Competition

Ho, Ho, Ho! Merry Fruitmas and Happy Holidays! It’s time for another build comp - Fruitmas edition of course!

For the first time in FruitServers history, you can build in pairs OR alone for the December Build Comp! The build comp starts now and closes on the 28th of December. The top 3 places can win Store Credit, the exclusive Build Comp Winner Chattag and more in-game rewards! Check the dedicated discord forum for more information on rules, prizes, guidelines, and how to enter. Get building!

Fruitmas Opening

There were 57 ornaments created by our community across the servers and each and every one of them were amazing! Congratulations to the Prison and Survival server for decorating the best Fruitmas Tree! Now that the Fruitmas Trees are all decorated, the Fruitmas Festivities can kick off!

Join us for the grand opening of the Fruitmas Festivities at /warp Fruitmas on Survival, Skyblock, and Prison! H1’s elves have been working hard on planning and designing activities, events, and competitions to keep you busy this December!

Visit the North Pole’s Gingerbread Post Office to send gifts to friends and fellow players, write wish lists for Santa, or if you’re feeling particularly inspired, write an enchanting story about the magic of the holidays!

Discover which reindeer is leading your sleigh - does Prancer’s elegance or Dasher’s speed suit you most? Find out by taking the quiz and receive exclusive collectibles!

It wouldn’t be Fruitmas without an advent calendar! Unwrap the fruity magic and spirit of gift-giving by opening a daily gift from the 1st of December up until the 25th! Visit the NPC in the Fruitmas Areas to receive your daily gifts.

Keep an eye out for later in the month for our Fruitmas Cracker Joke Competition on Discord! The more cracking puns, jokes, and laughs the merrier! Santa doesn’t want me to spoil all the surprises (and I don’t want to end up on the naughty list…), so the rest you’ll need to discover for yourself at /Warp Fruitmas!

Tonight at 8PM AEDT Fruit Survival will kick off the celebrations with a christmas themed skin competition, Santa photos with FruitServer’s very own cake-giving H1N9, and Fruitmas Parkour!

★Vote Competition★

Do you love playing on Fruit Servers?  Voting is a way you can help us out and show everyone what an amazing community we have here!  Voting helps us spread the word of our server, and brings in new players, which helps to keep us active.  Voting only takes a few minutes of your time, and it really does a lot to help us out, so a big Thank You to everyone who takes the time to vote for us.  Every month we award prizes to the top three players who have voted the most over the month, who each get a voucher to spend at the store, remember tho, votes are tallied a few hours before the end of the month, so last minute votes may not get counted.  Congratulations to this month's top voters.
