For many years, art has been a large part of the Potterworld community. Whether it be drawing, rendering, or building, the art community has a wide variety of talents and interests!
To better grow and strengthen some of our server's communities, we have opened an all-new Art Discord! This server is not just for digital artists or renders, but instead for all different mediums. Writers, cooks, modelers, and more are welcomed!
This Discord also serves as a different way for PW team members to interact with players. There will be opportunities for players to get sneak peeks into the creative side of the server (Media & Build), get their work featured in our works such as Daily Diviner, and more!
We will be opening back Arena Squire Applications, and we're very excited to see a couple new people on the Arena Team! Applications will remain open until further notice. We're looking for new Arena Squires to help us in Challenges/Tournaments, and upcoming Arena projects!
Note:
- We're primarily looking for players on EU and AU time zones, but anyone can apply!
- If you have been on the Arena Team previously and want to rejoin the team, message the Lead Arena Master on Discord (Sal#2212) to receive the reinstatement application, as per the reinstatement protocol.
- If you know someone who you feel would be fit to join the Arena Team, feel free to encourage them to apply. We appreciate all the help we can get!
- Make sure you meet all the requirements before applying!
This has been resolved, and you are now able to connect and play again! We apologize for the inconvenience this has caused.
We're currently experiencing an issue with one of our back-end servers, crashing the entire network. We're investigating the issue, but full transparency, we don't expect this to be fixed today (PST), as our Developers are currently unavailable due to timezones.
Players will be unable to connect to the server, and players already connected will experience tons of weird stuff.
We'll send out an announcement once the issue has been resolved. We apologize for the inconvenience this has caused, and thank you for your patience.
(This is also affecting our Discord bot, so I had to send this ugly message, sorry! Might delete this later to keep up with the aesthetic)
Greetings witches, wizards, and all magical folk alike!
It brings us much excitement to announce that after 2 years, and nearly 5 months, we’re super excited to release our new permanent minigame: Party Games!
Party Games is a fast-paced, exciting minigame that chooses 6 random game modes for you all to play and compete in. Each game will have winners, and once the 6 random games have been played, the player with the most points wins.
Because this is a permanent minigame, you can find daily party games tasks in your /me menu.
We’re releasing this in BETA and with 13 games to begin with.
We actually made 4 more (so 17 in total), but they weren’t at the quality that we would have liked, so we decided to disable those for now. Our biggest challenge has been creativity: We’ve had a really hard time coming up with fun games, so if you have an idea for a fun game, please let us know! This is a game that we’d love to continue to work on - we just need the ideas!
Saying goodbye to an oldie
With the release of Party Games, we made the decision to say goodbye to our oldest permanent minigame: Spell Wars. Spell Wars is our worst performing minigame, and there are days where it doesn’t get played at all. Keeping spell wars enabled would make queue times last even longer, and would require us to continuously maintain it. It’s not of the quality that we’d like for it to be, so we think disabling it for now is a good idea. We can always re-enable it in the future, or rework it - or maybe replace it with something else (bedwars?).
We want to be transparent with this decision, so here’s a graph displaying how many games Spell Wars gets compared to other games. Note: This doesn’t even take...
