———-
This is the 7th Star, Saviours of the digital world.
For too long we have watched this world shift and change to the admins demands
World after world after world, progress destroyed, chaos washed away
We have deemed this world, our world, and have taken control of it away from those who would control you.
———-
This world will be saved, and its walls broken down!
Fire will fill the streets!
Explosions will echo in the distance!
We will lead you into a new reign of chaos and and liberty!
———-
In 24 hours this world will be ours.
We are many.
We are freedom.
Expect us.

MCAU under attack

It has come to our attention that MCAU’s website has been defaced and someone is threatening to launch a giant nuclear bomb at spawn. We are currently trying to determine who “7th Star” are, and we believe they are impersonating (or worse, ARE) one of our staff.

MCAU does not negotiate with terrorists, and we are working hard to hunt down the location of the individual’s base and defuse the bomb before it is too late. We are currently using our satellite technology to search the map for clues, but because the map is so large, we need your help! You can access the satellite scans and hopefully help us find clues or even the bomb itself.

We are also working to restore our website to its former glory, however the attacker has encrypted the site and locked us out – all we can do is make posts. We are of course working to crack the encryption as fast as we can, but this may take hours or even days.

Our forums are still secure, so we urge anyone with information to post there and let us know.

Regards,
– MCAU Administration

Website Header Images.

As some of you may know, three of the four current header images are as old as September of 2011… (Those are the images at the top of this page with the big ‘MINECRAFT.au!’ over the top of it).

So in saying that, us here at MCAU Headquarters thought it would be a marvelous idea if we let the players take their own images and submit them to us for ranking. We will undertake thorough inspection of each image submitted to make sure it is of absolute quality.

At the end, we will choose between eight (Yes, eight!) overall winners, and two major winners. The two major winners shall both receive:
• One month of donor-ship.
And overall the eight winners will:
• Get a sneak preview of next map's spawn.
• Be in a lovely group photo by themselves in front of said new spawn.
• Be in a magnificent group photo with MCAU Staff members!

“Yeah, that’s nice and all, but how do we enter!?” You say? Well, by following the steps below, you will be in the running for these amazing prizes!

  1. Take a screenshot of something AWESOME, from ANYWHERE on our server, using the default texture pack! (Press F1 to hide your HUD, and then press F2 to take a screenshot.)
  2. Make a copy of that screenshot and crop it to 1000px in width and 288px in height. (Failing to crop the image means we will not accept it, or we will crop it ourselves randomly and will not look as you intended.) (If you don't know how to get to your screenshot folder; Click Here.)
  3. Create a new e-mail with the subject: Website Header Image: <Your Name Here>
  4. Add the recipient of the e-mail as: admin@mcau.org
  5. Add your new image as an attachment to that e-mail.
  6. In the body of the email, type where you took the screenshot, and your username again. (Include the co-ordinates, they can be found by pressing F3 in-game.)
  7. Check the above details and click SEND.

Assuming you did all the above step correctly; you’re now in the running to win the smashing prizes!

Notes:
You must use the default texture pack when taking your image.
You can submit multiple ones, but we will only use the best one you submitted.
The place you image does not have to be your own.
