Goooodmorning WinterCresters!

How is it almost the end of September already?!

Before I roll out all the spooky stuff next week, I thought it was time for a new blog post to catch you all up on what's been happening around WinterCrest. If you don't keep up with discord, here's what's new this month

Voting Updates:

We now have a brand new Voting GUI, with all the information you need to know about voting and its rewards!

New: MILESTONES!

Ever felt like the wait from Settler to Faithful was just sooo long? And don't even get us started on the wait to Dedicated!

Well, now we have some extra milestone rewards to keep you guys going! 🎉 These milestones go beyond our regular vote ranks, with rewards getting bigger and better as you go.

And the FINAL milestone? A $100 Store Gift Card! 🎁💸

Already have a bunch of votes under your belt? You'll be able to claim all of the past milestone rewards you've already unlocked based on your current vote count! (Sorry to those who have been slacking on the votes...)

Vote Leaderboards!

Don't have it in you to fight for that top monthly spot? No worries! You can put your all into the weekly leaderboard instead and see how high you can climb. Whether you're going for the big monthly reward or just want to battle it out each week, there's always another something to aim for!

Rewards are given out automatically every Sunday and on the 1st of every month.

! And remember, TOPG is one vote every 6 hours! Be sure to cram in those extra votes whenever you can!

THE OUTFITTER CRATE AND WARDROBE

The Cosmetic Wardrobe is back! You can now try on cosmetics to your hearts content. We've also gone ahead and crammed more cosmetics into our beloved Outfitter Crate.

Whittling Enchant & The Stripper

Whittling (Max Vanilla Level 3) Click to strip more wood on a tree at once.

Whittling can be found in the Enchants Crate, or by obtaining The Stripper From the Tool or Fall Vote Crates!

Patch Notes:

• You can now join on 26.3 but the server remains 26.2.
• Fixed issue where books would randomly wipe/not sign.
• New Shiny ESC menu.
• Fixed lighting issues with Halloween Items. You are now able to now hit these to turn them on/off! (If not working, break and re-place them) :

Chandeliers, Gothic Lighting, Pumpkin Lighting

• Fixed issue where paintbrushes couldn't dye standard glass panes.
• Everyone's stormtrooper armor is fixed and should automatically update.
• The Butterfly Cosmetic loot box now gives tokens.
• Fixed Energizing enchant giving Haste 2 and not Haste 8.
• Fixed issues with Floral Shop.
• Fixed issues with Fall Vote Crate.
• I have stopped furniture from despawning in and out of view.
• Optimized how mob limits work. ALL mobs are now capped at 30 per chunk, with villagers being at an additional 30.
• Added /chunklimits for you to easily see the limits in your chunk.
• To help people with night time farms and those who enjoy the night, I have changed the sleep percentage from 20 to 50.
• Playerparticles work again.

See you soon for something.... spooky! <3
