Hello everyone! Those holidays sure went quickly but don't leave just yet there's so much to catch up on! After all we have not released anything in what feels like forever!

Let's put a spotlight on this week's top news shall we!

Staff Appreciation DayThis coming Saturday will be Staff Appreciation Day. Fruit can't run without the amazing staff team that we have!One of the bits I love about the day is that we encourage players to write thank you books for the staff. On each server, you can write a book and drop it off at /warp bookdrop. You can write books for individual staff members or for the team as a whole, it is totally up to you! These books are then given for the staff to read and keep.Don't forget about our amazing Event-Coordinators, Builders and Devs as well!

As announced on Discord this week, we have upgraded Survival, Skyblock and Creative to 1.16.3. This was to patch a number of bugs and issues. You can now only log ingame using 1.16.3. Please report any bugs to staff.

When witches go riding

And black cats are seen

The moon laughs and whispers

Tis near Halloween!

It is hard to believe that we are getting close to Halloween, this year has just flown by so fast! So as we enter the spooky season, we have lots of fun and creepy activities coming your way. I can not tell you EVERYTHING we have in store for you yet, but I will let you in on a few little sneak peaks to keep you going till next week. To start things off we will be having a Haunted Home competition. Where we will be giving prizes for the best halloween decorations, so get busy and start “Trick or Treating” out your home now! There will be a Creepy Costume Contest at the end of October with prizes going to the creepiest and craziest skins, so time to dust off your best costumes, or don’t, the spider webs will add to the appeal :D. To keep the frightening festivities going, we will be on the look out for the best Halloween selfies for the rest of October for our Selfie of the Week contest, there might even be a special themed trophy to go with the prize. This is just the beginning of our ghoulish games, so keep an eye out for more info coming soon.

✐ Build Competition ✎

The theme for Octobers's build competition will be Tropical!

This build comp is a big one! But we can always count on you guys to produce great builds. There is so much you can do with this theme and we can not wait to see what builds you submit! You never know what you are capable of until you try!

Competition Rules:

☛ The build is limited to 200x200 in size, we'd suggest marking out these dimensions beforehand. There is no height limit.

☛ The build must follow the theme - Tropical!

☛ The build must be completed by 11:59pm 30th October, 2020 (AEST)

☛ You are permitted to work in teams of THREE (3) at most! Prizes will be split accordingly.

☛ All entries must be built on the Creative server.

☛ As cool as pixel art is, this isn't the place for it.

☛ Don't copy another person's work, BE ORIGINAL!

Entry and Prize Structure:

A forum thread will be made where you can submit your entries as well as find out what the prize structure will be. To make things easier for everyone, please only submit your entry on the prize structure thread. Lazy attempts will receive a substantially smaller prize, you have been warned! Remember - 15 quality entries and the prizes will increase!
