Event - UHC (Ultra Hardcore) TIME HAS BEEN CHANGED!!!

[MinecraftMan8]

Hello again Minr. Would anyone be interested in some Ultra Hardcore? If you don't know what UHC is, read the next part; if you do, skip to the 3rd section.

What is Ultra Hardcore:
UHC is a PvP oriented game type. There are teams that start spread out from other teams in a fairly small world. The goal is to get equipment as fast as you can, and kill the other team. However, there's a catch: Normal health regeneration is turned off! You can only regenerate health via Golden Apples or Health Potions (Regeneration Potions are BANNED as well as Strength 2).

I know what UHC is (or at least now I do):
The event usually takes between 2-4 hours. I was wondering if this would be something you guys are interested in. Basically, I'll watch this thread to see who will play, and we will play Saturday 9/5/2015 and start at (hopefully) at 2:00 P.M. EDT. We can do whatever sized teams you want, so post suggestions in the comments. Specific rules are below, and the IP will be announced on this thread on Saturday. Tell me if you can play, I think it will be really fun.

Specific Rules:
1. Only play in survival
2. No entering the end
3. No glitching past the world border (size will be decided based on number of players)
4. Potions of Regeneration are banned
5. Strength 2 potions are banned
6. If anyone knows about UHC and remembers a rule I forgot, put it in the comments so I can add it.

I will see if I can be there, but probably can not commit to 2 - 4 hours.
Btw, isn't this normally played with double hearts or something?

I thought the whole original idea was to beat the ender dragon as the first team, or remain alive as the last team standing. (Which required going to the nether etc) else you'd just have overworld pvp with a twist.

Basically, this is UHC team deathmatch (last team standing). [There are many other versions of UHC, but this is pretty much the official version].

What happenes is the teams are randomly tp'ed into the wild. They must collect resources to gear up and fight the other teams.
To force the other teams together, the WorldBorder closes in on the centre of the map, forcing the teams together.
The world border may start immediatly, or after some sort of grace period. Note the world is not terribly big, usually about 30k blocks at the start of the game.

All Natural Regeneration (via food) is permentely disabled, so if you fall 4 blocks and take half a heart of damage, you will enter the fight without that half a heart.
This makes resource collecting all the more dangerous as mobs will probably kill at least 1 team before they fight.

The only way to regenerate health is via Health Potions, Golden Apples and Regeneration potions. In this case, Regeneration potions are banned (for balance).

Please note the phrase HARDCORE in the title of this game, UHC (Ultra Hardcore). If you die, you die. You are either banned from the server (auto) or @MinecraftMan8 may disable Hardcore mode (in the server settings) and just /gamemode 3 you when you die.

Meh the original had enderdragons in it, but I digress.
Probably won't be joining, got a family day that day \o/

 

[Srentiln]

ricky's right, the original UHC was a race for all the participants to reach and kill the enderdragon with no passive healing. Personally, I don't have much interest in doing it. Even in easy difficulty I die a lot to creepers.
