BennyDoesStuff Posted December 24, 2019 Share Posted December 24, 2019 Minehut Rewind 2019 - The Year of Growth What a year it has been! Minehut has grown, changed, and evolved a ton over the past year. We had some bad moments, but as a community we all grew together and made some amazing moments and memories we can all share together. While we might not have the same budget of YouTube Rewind, what we do have is the dedication and love for this community (Ouch YouTube!). So we decided to take a step back into time and look at all the amazing moments we've had this year. Let's hope we'll all still be here to experience the next decade of Minehut. Enjoy! Timeline of Events in 2019 January 3, 2019: NEW Support system. We added a dedicated page on our panel (https://minehut.com/support) to create support tickets and get help for your Minehut server. This is way easier than needing to send us an email or ask through our Discord server. January 4, 2019: We brought back Featured servers! People are able to submit their servers to be featured, and if they're featured they get advertised in multiple places across Minehut's platforms. This encourages people to make well-developed and well-built servers. The first server that was featured was Hail, which was at the time showcased on our weekly live-stream called "Good Grief". January 12 - 13, 2019: NEW player record of 1208 players online at once on the 12th, then 1257 peak players online on the 13th. Before these days, our player record was only 1057 players which we hit back in June 10, 2018. February 14, 2019: We took the time to go through our large repo of 259 plugins and update them all. At the time of writing this, we now have 409 downloadable plugins (almost double!). February 23, 2019: Shubble recorded a video on Minehut for our Block Party event! This is where a YouTuber makes a server and records their progress each week and at the end of the month, they live-stream the server and make it public for everyone. February 25, 2019: We hit a new player record of 1275 players online at once! March 10, 2019: New player record of 1326 players online at once. March 14, 2019: Thanks to a plugin developer, we got permission to add their premium (paid) plugin to Minehut! The plugin is called Vouchers, which the author BadBones69 allowed us to add. March 16, 2019: New player record of 1353 players online at once. March 17, 2019: Shubble live-streams their CTF server! This server was made possible by our Minehut build team as well as the Minehut admins to help develop and build the server. We hit a new player record of 1441 players online at once! March 29, 2019: We released a new lobby in Minehut! This lobby was made with help from our Minehut build team. April 9, 2019: We made ALL plugins free! We felt that while charging players for plugins made it easy to help pay for Minehut's costs, it wasn't the best way to make money. Anyone that bought a plugin a week before this change was refunded. April 13 - 14, 2019: New player record of 1516 players, and then 1736 players online at once (Over 1500 players on at once!). April 16, 2019: We updated Minehut to 1.13.2 from 1.12.2. We had to remove some plugins as they didn't support 1.13 as 1.12.2 is quite different from newer versions so older plugins don't work on these newer MC versions. April 22, 2019: We updated the Minehut file manager so players can now upload and update datapacks with the .mcmeta extension. May 4 - 5, 2019: Minehut hit 2 new player records of 2063 players, and then 2271 players online at once. May 19, 2019: Our Discord server hits a new record of 15000 people in it. May 21, 2019: We updated Minehut from 1.13.2 to 1.14.1 (91% of plugins supported this new versions and were updated). May 24 - 26, 2019: Minehut hit 3 new player records 3 days in a row! We had 2469 players, 3231 players, and then 3374 players on at once. This was the first time we had over 3000 players online at once. May 28, 2019: Minehut updates the logo to be a new one. It's a very similar design, except with a lightning bolt going through the diamond. This is the same lightning bolt that's present in Super League Gaming's logo (the company that owns Minehut). June 1, 2019: We updated Minehut from 1.14.1 to 1.14.2. June 2, 2019: We hit a new player record of 3593 players online at once.

Popular Servers throughout 2019 Through 2019, we've seen the popularity of different servers rise and fall throughout the year. From genpvp servers, to duels, to flag capturing servers, we've seen a ton of popular servers gain popularity throughout this year. Do you remember any of these, and which ones are we missing? These servers aren't listed in any particular order. Hail. First featured server of 2019. Popular GenPvP server near the beginning of the year. TIMH (Trouble in Minehut). Murder Mystery styled gamemode quite popular throughout the summer. FlagClash. Place down a flag and defend it from other players. Quite popular during the autumn. ValkNet. Server host inside of a server host. Popular near the beginning of winter. beans. Elytra PVP server. Somehow gained popularity recently after a year of inactivity. PlexPvP. Overly-developed GenPvP server. Quite popular the beginning half of the year. Warzone. Objective-based gamemodes. Popular in the second half of the year. Idler. Click buttons and AFK to get upgrades! Quite popular throughout the first few months of the year. Glide. Elytra server, finish the elytra courses without falling! Popular throughout the summer months. LavaS. Play survival in a world filled with lava! Was popular during the summer months. Runners. Try surviving in a maze-runner styled gamemode. Popular during late summer, early autumn. BankNote. PvP players to gain upgrades. Quite popular at the end of the year. Minehut Growth in 2019 Minehut has been growing quite a bit ever since the Super League acquisition in June 2018. But Minehut's growth really took off during 2019 and grew much faster than anyone anticipated! Even to the point where we were almost unable to handle the amount of new players and servers that were being created. With that said, check out some of these stats that we compiled throughout the year below. Broke our player record 29 times in 2019. Went from a player record of 1057 players to 6165 players online at once. Created a YouTube channel and gained almost 6000 subscribers within the second half of the year. The Discord server more than doubled its size from around 10k users to over 25k users. Over 2 million messages sent in our Discord server from players and staff members like you. Counted over 30k in our Discord server in the second half of the year for our quest to count to 1 million! Increased our network size from 896 GB to 4.2 TB of ram for player servers. Added hundreds of new plugins to Minehut suggested by you guys! Over 850k new servers created on Minehut (to a total of almost 1.1 million servers created). Over 600k new accounts joined Minehut for the first time. Since the new forums was created, almost 70k players made an account on the forums. Over 25k new posts have been posted on the forums. The largest forums club hit over 200 members. Promoted 20 new players to the Minehut volunteer moderation team. Over 150 applications submitted to join the staff team. Thank you to everybody that has made this year possible. Minehut has grown and changed so much within 2019, and none of this would've been possible without you guys! To people like you who continue to play on our servers, to people like you who play in our events, and to people like you who make this community as awesome as it is. Thank you for making Minehut what it is. No matter where we might end up, here's to another decade of Minehut! 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
