As the new decade quickly approaches, we would like to thank all of you guys for making 2019 a great year! Here's some of the highlights from this past year:
- Love Chamber at Valentine's Day
- Quabbleball release in March
- Our largest event ever, Potterworld's 5th Anniversary
- Cannon Challenge at PotterworldMC's Fantastical Carnival
- Bluefyre escape room

That being said, Potterworld would not be where it is today without you, the players. So please join us in celebrating the new year and new decade! The new year's fireworks show can be accessed through the Announcements menu in-game.

Happy New Year!

Handle with care, and approach with caution!

• Each class will be approximately an hour in length to give yourself time to get to the next one if you choose
• The normal class schedule will be suspended for 24 hours - none of those classes will happen, and we will follow the special 24 Hours of Classes schedule instead.

You can find the schedule for the day below, showing which professors will be teaching, what subject and when during the day they will happen! Note that there is a chance this schedule could change slightly if necessary.

Hopefully we can see you all there!

Hello everyone!

As we have reached December, a very beloved holiday month, we have enabled all holiday items on our webstore found here.

In addition to this, we have released some new store items:
We hope you'll enjoy these new items!

The Winter Waltz is here and this year it is being held at Dormunstrad! Though the people of Dormunstrad were prepared for a wonderful holiday, they’ve come to face a terrible problem. An unknown force has cursed Dormunstrad, freezing many of the main locations of the school with cursed ice. Talk to Kevin, in Hogsworth’s Great Hall Courtyard, to begin your adventure.

Gameplay
Forge Bluefyre in order to unfreeze five key locations in the castle! Bluefyre requires a few items found around the castle, as well as Holiday Spirit, which can be earned from most gameplay in the event. Unfreezing each location will unlock new rewards to purchase with Snowflakes. There are also many puzzles that can be found throughout the castle and a unique Escape Room challenge!

Additionally, Sledding, Snowballing and Wand Spleef has been enabled while the event is active. Enjoy these exclusive minigames for the next month!

Advent...

Hello everyone!

We are celebrating Black Friday with 30% off all items until Monday, December 2nd!
Check out the store here.

As the holiday season approaches, it is time to prepare for the Winter Waltz tournaments! The way these work are similar to normal tournaments, however you get to pick your teams and there are no qualifiers.

This year, both Dueling and Flying will have two tournaments, Duos and Teams. Duos are teams of two and Teams are teams of four. The Duos tournament will be held on December 7th, while the Teams tournament will be held on December 14th. You can sign yourself and friends up for Dueling here, and for Flying here.

As is now tradition with Winter Waltz tournaments, along with the regular rewards, special collectables are up for grabs! The firework launcher will be given to the winning teams, and a collectable with a custom spell to display the winner's Minecraft heads will be given to the winning duos.

Hope to see you all...

Hello everyone!

The Media department is pleased to announce that we are reopening the Director Intern application after the role has been reworked. We are very excited to welcome new members to the team!

What has changed?
We have made the Director Intern more like an intern. As a Director Intern, you will be creating videos for the Potterwatch channel under the supervision of a Sr. Director or a Media Lead. As a Director Intern, you will be learning skills to help you improve video creation and editing, and you will learn the standards we have for Potterwatch. The major difference between the old Director Intern and the new Director Intern is that now we do not expect people to already have great video creation skills. We welcome people who know the basics but who are also still learning.

Applications will be open indefinitely. Take your time with filling in the application and creating a test video. There's no rush to apply! If...

Hey everyone! It’s been nearly a week since the release of the daily streaks login, and here’s what we’ve learned from it, what we’re doing about it, and what to expect.

Reverting the update
After careful consideration, we’ve come to the decision to revert the streaks update, whilst we take the time needed to fix the bugs that has been occurring with it. We know that reverting updates is not fun, and trust me, it is even less fun for us, but with the amount of bugs the daily streaks is having, it’s something we have to do at this point in time to ensure a good gameplay experience for everyone.

Why we’re making this decision
We want to be transparent with all of you and explain why we’re making this decision:

1. We miscalculated the bonus experience rewards by a long shot. In some cases, players were rewarded over 20 million experience.
2. A lot of player’s streaks were resetting at random times, when they were not supposed to...

Witches and wizards, today we bring you an update from the development team! A new method of earning gold and Potter Points is here!

What are daily login streaks?
Daily login streaks are our new way of encouraging players to join the server on a consistent basis. This way, if you log in multiple days in a row, the reward you get for claiming your daily reward gradually increases, and continues to do so based on the streak amount. Graduates receive a larger gold bonus, whilst non-graduates receives a very large experience bonus.

Once you’ve reached the tenth consecutive daily login, the login streak will reset and you will be rewarded 25 Potter Points.

Balancing changes
With this, we’ve made a few changes to graduate rewards. Instead of receiving 50 gold for simply...

Hello everyone!

The Head Staff team and the Moderation department are excited to announce a change to the Moderation team! A few ranks are being renamed and there's a new role being added to the department in order to help balance things out a little more. The roles are now going to be:

• Jr. Prefect - This is the entry rank to the department and is just the old Trainee rank renamed.
• Prefect - This is the mid rank in the department and functions almost the same as a current Prefect would.
• Sr. Prefect - This is the new rank, and is the senior position in the department. These are similar to Prefects but have more responsibilities.
• Lead Prefect - These are the Leads in Moderation and are the old Sr. Prefects [not to be confused with the new rank].

There are, of course, the other ranks within the department, but these remain unaffected by these changes. We hope that these changes make sense! The application for...

Hello everyone!

3D Arithmancer applications have now closed. We have decided that 2D Arithmancer applications will remain open until we have filled all our spots. As a reminder, 2D Arithmancers create graphics for the server, such as the banner seen on this post, using photo manipulation software.

We are very excited to welcome new members to the team! To those who have submitted their applications within the past few weeks, we expect to reply to you within the next two weeks.

Please contact the Head of Media if you have any questions.

Click here to find the application, and good luck to all applicants!

We now have a completely transparent tournament schedule available to check out and we'll be updating it pretty frequently in order to keep you guys informed on future tournaments!

For all future tournament announcements, please check out this post.

Hello everyone!

We have decided to write up our protocols regarding reinstatements of former team members in order to bring some transparency to that subject, as well as giving information to any former team members considering joining back.

Each Head of Department has written out the specific protocol regarding their department and ranks, and it’s all been gathered up in the document found here.

For any concerns or questions, please contact a Head Staff member!
