Season 1

Started in October 2019 and ending in June 2021, Season 1 of Junicraft was a season of much trial and error.

Originally started on 1.14, it was during this season that we started piecing together the type of plugins we wanted to use on the server, deciding on adding dungeons and more RPG-like elements to Minecraft.

Notable locations created during Season 1 include a community center at spawn to house shared items and utilities, and a trade center with plots of land that could be purchased for shops to be built on. A Nether hub was created which allowed for easier travel between most players’ bases and other significant locations, such as the stronghold nearest to spawn.

Once the server was updated to 1.15, we held a bee-themed event in which players raced to collect a certain amount of all the new bee-related items.

When the community started growing a little more, a vote was held to decide what should be the first community build. The winning vote was for a viking-themed guild hall located at spawn. The Nether was also reset in order to prepare for the 1.16 Nether update.

The season ended on 1.16 with a decision to restart the world on a new seed in anticipation of the new world generation that would come with the 1.17 and 1.18 updates.
