What is the bug: My on time seemed to have decreased by 4 hours or so.
How did you discover this bug: I did /ontime
How could it possibly be solved: I don't know I'm hoping someone else knows how (Sorry for being stupid)
Anything else you want to say about it: I'm not sure if it's just me or not. I'm also confident that my on time was over two days

That actually happens to a few players so you are not the only one that occurs to. As for fixing it I am not sure of a solution for it. As /ontime isn't all that big of a deal for most people this may not be fixed in the quickest amount of time. Thank you anyway for your report!

What is the bug: Guests can use /mvs, which makes them able to skip the whole tutorial thing and just enter the map as a guest (which a lot of guests seem to do, no clue why)
How did you discover this bug: some guest accidently typed 7mvs instead of /mvs and that suddenly reminded me of it
How could it possibly be solved: Make guests unable to use /mvs
Anything else you want to say about it: #yolo

What is the bug: Players can use /sell and /buy
How did you discover this bug: People were talking about it in chat
How could it possibly be solved: Fix permissions
Anything else you want to say about it: #1.6BreaksEverything

This allows people to sell diamonds, pay eachother money (in some way), make infinite shops (I believe) and get a lot of stuff they shouldn't be able to get.

What is the bug: Able to buy/ use items that lower rankers can't get to
How did you discover this bug: I was bored from trying to get to the top of King of the pillar whatever it's named, and i decided to "try" to go to journeyman's area (i was apprentice) and then I was just right clicking around and whenever i closed the doors, and was sprinting, i was somehow able to right click on one of the potion stands, and actually view it
How could it possibly be solved: make it to where lower ranks can't even get close to the higher ranked shop's doors.
Anything else you want to say about it: nope.

What is the bug:
Being able to break and drop unbreakable/nodrop blocks with entities.

1. Place piston next to head/entity block
2. Place lever
3. Push
4. Head/entity block drops.
How did you discover this bug:
Since there's some unobtainable heads on Osiris (secret), I decided to try it and it worked.
How could it possibly be solved:
Make unbreakable and nodrop blocks unpushable via pistons.
Anything else you want to say about it:


Should I incinerate the heads?

Thank you kuilin for both your reports! As for the glitch with no drop items being obtainable that I believe is being worked on. I know, however, dirtcake already has load that he is dealing with so it may take a bit. As for the fire spread. I am not to sure if we can make a designated fire-spread=off zone.

Three Four here.


What is the bug: Piston + Sponge
1. Place sponge in lava
2. Use a piston to move sponge over 5 blocks
3. Without block-updating the sponge-air-blocks-that-used-to-be, fill in and dig out the sponge-air-blocks-that-are-now
4. That area no longer has any lava
5. Repeat, so an area of any size can be cleared out using only one sponge.
How did you discover this bug:
Random fiddling around.
How could it possibly be solved:
Make sponges not be pushable by pistons, or make moving/breaking a sponge cause a block update to all blocks within 2 blocks of it. The latter solution will also solve the glitch/quirk that a sponge, when broken, leaves the air until the lava is block updated.
Anything else you want to say about it:
Nope.


What is the bug:
Vanished ops can be seen via /glist
How did you discover this bug:
Doing /glist and noticing an op was on that wasn't on /list and concluded that they were vanished
How could it possibly be solved:
Fix /glist to not include vanished ops
Anything else you want to say about it:
Nope.


What is the bug:
/time is weird, it increments one minute every second and, (consequentially) does not show the correct server time
How did you discover this bug:
Doing /time by instinct to help me figure out timezones, then realizing that it was horribly wrong
How could it possibly be solved:
Fix or disable /time
Anything else you want to say about it:
Nope.


What is the bug:
Piston head blocks, when melted, drop the piston, thus enabling people to easily build in lava using pistons since the piston head blocks can be built off of
How did you discover this bug:
Random fiddling around
How could it possibly be solved:
Make Block 34 melt, not break.
Anything else you want to say about it:
Same thing happens to beds.

What is the bug:
Pistons can push blocks into spawn, causing death by suffocation in spawn and they're unbreakable.
How did you discover this bug:
Random fiddling around
How could it possibly be solved:
Make pistons unable to be pushed into spawn? Or, another idea is to fill spawn up with Block 34 like in some TNT maps.
Anything else you want to say about it:
On a roll today! :p

I don't know exactly how you can make a block not push-able but then again, I am not a coder. As for lava update that I believe can be easily done but can cause issues of more griefs.

I frequently annoy ops by logging on and saying hi, when it turns out I blew their cover, and noone knew they were there :p

What is the bug:
Being able to respawn in the map after the map has ended.
1. See time until round ends only has ~10 seconds left
2. Die
3. Wait until after round ends
4. Hit Respawn
5. While everyone else is at lobby, you respawn in the map
6. Raid everyone's chests?
How did you discover this bug:
By rage-dying at last second only to respawn when everyone was not there.
How could it possibly be solved:
On respawn check if the round is over, then respawn player in the proper area
Anything else you want to say about it:
Nope.

What is the bug:
You cannot buy shop items while holding minecart rails.
How did you discover this bug:
1. Hold rails
2. Right click slab
3. Nothing happens
4. Drop rail
5. Right click slab
6. Buys stuff
How could it possibly be solved:
Erm...
Anything else you want to say about it:
Tested with normal rails, not sure if it happens with detector or powered rails.

Edit: Powered rails also don't work. Signs give a message "You cannot build in the lobby!" and don't work. Other blocks do work though.

Bug: On certain maps, fire can't be destroyed in the spawn. Let's say someone puts wood in the lava-part of spawn, and it sets the block next to it on fire- In spawn. We can't destroy the fire, so people can walk into that fire and die.
solution: make fire destroyable in spawn (not sure what maps/if all maps are affected by this, but I know you can't destroy fire in spawn on Mystery)

Bug: If you die, in the lobby or in the map, you may accidentally click "Title Screen" instead of "Respawn". And when you come back, the death screen is still there, and when you respawn all your levels are lost, which happened to me and that's why I decided to post this. People can accidentally click the wrong option and lose all their levels, and that is really annoying if you farm a lot of experience through mobs, smelting, or any other way to gain exp.

Solution: No clue how this would be fixed.

I am not sure if this even can be fixed at all. My only real suggestion would be to be careful (I know accidents happen).
