April 7th 2016

We are currently working through the bugs of 1.9 to try and fix them, and we're getting a good few squashed.
/mail has been added as a (better) replacement to the now closed staff mailboxes - the same /mail as used on Create
We have added LimitCreative to stop people from duping items from Creative
ShowcaseStandalone is fixed! You can now buy items without having that terrible dupe.
We are currently looking through map submissions and suggestions! Please bear with us.
There's a nice survey if you want to take part in it. See the "We need your help!" post.
We've added two double chests called the "Community Chests" for you to put your unwanted blocks, items or whatever in for a newer player to take. Please give generously!

RoF Update 2016 (14/05/16)

IT’S ALL BEEN RESET
Tokens of Ascension introduced as rankup currency to go with cookies
Cookies no longer earned in rounds
Mood and speed are now separate
An achievement system has been implemented
/nominate command added to nominate a map for the map vote
Players must be in the round 80% of the time for a win to count
A couple of sound effects have been added! Use /togglesounds if you don’t like them.
The default join and leave messages have been changed
The scoreboard has been given a small makeover
The server’s lagging a bit less when the map starts!
Maps that did not win in the vote will now disappear for longer
Methods to stop pushing are being attempted to be implemented. They don’t work atm.
A new /help has been implemented
Ironman has been disabled
‘/ironman who’ has been added as an “alias” for ‘/ironman list’
Staff ontime is now automatically tracked. Maybe. No idea if it works.
More additions are planned as RoF resumes receiving faster, smaller updates

SirComputer · May 18, 2016

Beta Update 1 - 18/05/16

NEW COMMAND - /seen - Same as on AoD: see a user's past usernames
NEW COMMAND - /meltable - a command to find if a block melts. Not entirely accurate yet. Use some common sense if it says ice doesn't melt.
Staff ontimes for the week are now automatically tracked.
Speeds are now named after Classic Lava speeds - Turtle, Llama, Cheetah, African Swallow.
Minor bugfixes

Beta Update 2 - 12/06/16

NEW COMMAND - /warnings - view your warnings. Will give a perm error atm though, just give me until tomorrow.
IMPORTANT - rank prices have been lowered
Expert now has access to plots for 6000, the same price as Master. Will you go for Master or for a plot?
/lsinfo will either work brilliantly or give an internal error. I haven't tested it. The plan is for you to be able to see nobreak/place/drop blocks though.
You can walk through people!
Not yet added, but coming soon: Restarted Belt Work

Beta Update 3 - 26/06/16

/meltable now supports the parameters 'block' (for the block you're looking at), 'hand' (for the block in your hand) and 'offhand' (is it not a bit obvious now?).
Chances of harder moods being played has been increased.
Mods now have the ability to do .cmd in chat. Previously this was not enabled due to it giving people the permissions to do anything, but it has been custom-coded into RoF.

The Settings Update - 06/07/16

A /settings menu has been added to toggle your settings.
This gives you the ability to toggle whether you hear sound effects, see people in Deathrun and see ChatReaction.
If you toggle the Deathrun option mid-round, it probably won't work. My fault, I haven't added that in. That's coming in super soon™.
Bows are going to be disabled in KotL in a day or so.

King of the Updates - 09/08/16

KOTL ROTATION HAS BEEN IMPLEMENTED BAYBAY
- We're just judging the arenas from the KotL comp, and we will add some in once that has finished!
Multiple spawns have also been implemented, so you may now have different spawn points in your map!
KotL is now played in adventure mode - that's your Deathrun inventory fyi. Inventories in KotL will be saved upon death (not on server yet, but will be in a couple of hours)
New KotL rewards are coming soon!
ShowCaseStandalone has been edited to our needs.
At least with our update we haven't released it with a million bugs like AoD did. (sick burn )

The Airhole Update - 14/08/16

Airholes no longer generate! Hallelujah!
- Some maps where the airholes have saved will need fixing, and the RoF staff will now go in and remove them. However, they will no longer generate!
- This was caused by essentially a typo, as in the config we were trying to place MONSTER_EGG, which is a spawn egg item, instead of MONSTER_EGGS, which is a silverfish block. Go figure. /blamespigot
That's it. It's just that I'm very happy it's fixed.

The Rewarding Update - 25/08/16

There is a new rewards system for King of the Ladder!
- No longer will you be stuck with 8 coal - earn prizes from sticks to diamonds!
- There are about 76 rewards in the configuration, some rarer than others.
- Please note that I use an automated pluraliser, so it's not my fault when it gives you "64 rotten fleshes".
Nominate now supports tab-completion! This means that you can now press tab in the middle of typing a map name and get suggestions as to what you might be typing.
The mood percentages have been changed from 55% - 30% - 15% chances of getting calm, annoyed and angry respectively to 70% - 20% - 10%, as we felt they were a bit too much.
Mending removed from fishing rewards
Mending made impossible to drop. We have plans though! At least we think we do...
Removed Herobrine.
