Here’s the truth–  I have to be honest. I would prefer not to discuss this openly. As the owner, I work hard to keep issues and concerns “backstage” so that all of you do not have to hear about it. However, I believe in fairness and offering an explanation. All of you deserve to know the challenges we face, every day, so that you understand why we have had a few outages. I also believe some of you have the ability to help us.

Imaginears Club has spent years perfecting the ability to offer our valued Guests the most enjoyable, safe and troll-free place in all of Minecraft. What you don’t know are the steps we take to make that happen. That is because our goal is to offer you many MAGICAL moments without you ever having to worry about, or deal with, the issues we personally face on a daily basis.

We strive to make sure you have a consistent experience on Imaginears Club. Whether it is your first or 30th viewing of our world-renowned showings of IROE and WISHES, or one of our many stage productions or events. We always want every Guest to enjoy themselves equally.

We are constantly growing, with thousands of new Guests daily. We continue to spend more money on servers, development and infrastructure to meet those needs. It takes much more effort than you ever see or hear about to keep us running. More money, more time, more sleepless nights, more monitoring of chat…Really, you would have no idea any of this is happening if I were not telling you right now! It’s truly incredible the amount of work all of our unpaid volunteers do to keep Imaginears Club the world’s leader and innovator. An astounding amount of work is done, daily, to make sure shows are on time, chat is clean, servers are running and plugins are updated. All of which happens behind the curtain– “backstage”.

However, with all the work we do to keep Imaginears Club running, we oddly have individuals who are angry at our success and accomplishments. All the good we do, all the safety we offer, somehow makes them mad and want to lash out at our servers. This has come in the form of multiple DDoS attacks against our many servers. DDoS, if you are not aware of the term, means Distributed Denial Of Service attack. Essentially, they hit our network with a lot of traffic so that you, our priority, are either unable to log in or are kicked from the Parks without warning. Ever been kicked off during fireworks? That’s why.

We want to stop this from happening, but it simply hasn’t been in the budget. I, personally, have spent tens of thousands of my personal money on Imaginears Club over the years and I do so gladly and with no reservations, but no matter how much I am able to do, Imaginears Club depends on YOU for donations to keep us running. Your help gives us the ability to protect, expand and develop.

We need your help to make this a priority and a mission. We want to purchase the protection to keep us online 24 hours a day without interruption and free from the bad apples who want to keep you from having the safest, and most fun, experience possible in Minecraft.  We want to keep providing it for years to come, so we’re asking for your help.

All of you have the ability to help us. Some by making large donations, others by sharing this post. Blast this out everywhere. Share it. Retweet it. Let’s see how much we can raise to ensure Imaginears Club is interruption-free for all our Guests. You can help by using any of the links below my signature.

Imagine if every Guest who visited Imaginears Club over the years offered us $1 each. We’d have $500,000+! Now, imagine just 10,000 of you giving, right now, any amount– and you can see how helpful that can be.

You, your friends, your family – everyone deserves to have a place like Imaginears Club. Help us keep the magic alive and refill that pixiedust.

Sincerely,

David Wasman – Owner and Founder of imaginears

Hello Imaginears Club Community, happy spring! It’s time for some new things to be revealed on Imaginears Club. Some have been announced, some have been kept super-secret. Let’s get going!

FastPass Kiosk

The FastPass Kiosk was probably the only thing everyone knew about the update, but they knew almost nothing about it. It’s time to clear up the secrecy, let’s talk about what it’ll do!

In Disney World, you use FastPass Kiosks throughout the Parks to add, remove, and modify existing FastPass+ Selections. These Selections are what allow you to get on the shorter, faster FastPass line on most rides. On most of our rides, however, the wait time is nothing, or barely exceeds a minute. This is because we’re an online community, and we don’t have thousands of people in one Park at a time (that’d be cool though, right?). So, rather than allow you to create selections for FastPass+ that wouldn’t even be useful, we decided to go beyond what Walt Disney World has in these Kiosks and add Imaginears Club-Specific items.

The first three items from the left are three FastPasses, each of which can be claimed daily. However, there’s a catch. Each FastPass only works on a certain type of ride: Slow, Moderate, or Thrill respectively. All of our rides are now being categorized according to how Disney does it for their Parks. For example: The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror can only accept a Thrill FP, Soarin can only accept a Moderate FP, and It’s a Small World can only accept a Slow FP. No more shall we charge you $50 for each FastPass, that wasn’t fair. We hope you like this addition!

The center item, the Nether Star, is another new feature. Each day, you will be able to vote for Imaginears Club on popular Minecraft Server Lists. Each vote you make will, in turn, give you 5 Tokens. You can vote as often as the Server Lists let you, but you will only be rewarded once every 12 hours so you don’t get too rich!

The last three items are something we’ve been wanting to add for a very long time. With those, you are able to claim Monthly Tokens! Depending on your position on the server (Guest, DVC, Shareholder) you will be able to claim more Tokens. Everyone will be able to claim 50 Tokens. DVCs get an extra 50, so they get 100. And Shareholders get another 50, but can claim the DVC Tokens, so they get 150. If you have more tokens than you know what to do with, we’ll be adding more Outfits into the store soon. Stay tuned!

That’s a wrap for the FastPass Kiosk features. We hope you like them, a lot of work went into each and every feature. As always, let a Cast Member know if you find any bugs so we can fix them right away!

Suites

This is another feature we’ve been looking to add for a while. Suites are the same as normal Hotel Rooms, except they’re exclusive for our DVC Members and Shareholders. We plan on converting rooms in the Grand Floridian to Suites, as well as adding the ability to rent the Bungalows at the Polynesian as Suites. More news on that in the coming weeks!

Audio Server

This new service has been in the works for months, we’ve been fine-tuning it to the point where we believe it is time to show you, our Guests, what we’ve been up to! We realized how tedious it is for some of our Guests to download huge 200MB+ Audio Packs, and then configuring them could be difficult as well. After a lot of time was spent considering our available options, we decided this would be the best way to make it easier for more people to experience our Parks in the most immersive way possible.

With this, we will eventually be removing the necessity to use an Audio Pack entirely. Also, we will be removing standard show audio like Wishes and IROE from our Resource Pack, making that even smaller. As of right now, our Audio Server only supports a few rides completely (Test Track and Mission: SPACE). These were created so we could display how in-sync and easy-to-use this new system really can be.

Other than rides, the Audio Server will also play some music as you walk around the Parks! As you walk from the entrance of the Magic Kingdom to Main Street, the audio changes and gets more upbeat. Then, when you get closer to the Castle, it gets more regal. Everything you hear is exactly what you would hear if you were in the real Parks. All of the soundtracks used are owned by the Walt Disney Company, we do not claim ownership to any of the audio used on the Audio Server.

Okay, I’ve explained this feature enough. Let’s tell you how to use it!

Right now, since the Audio Server is still under heavy development, we are only making this available to our DVC Members and Shareholders. We don’t want to put it under the load of hundreds of users yet. As it’s used,  we will be improving it. Everyone will have access soon!

To use the Audio Server, all you have to do is login to Imaginears Club and type /audio. Then, just click “here” in the message, and the Audio Server will open up! Important: As of right now, Google Chrome is the only supported browser. We will expand to support Internet Explorer, Safari, and Opera in the coming weeks. In the meantime, download Google Chrome here! It is very secure and safe to use.

Please expect bugs and other issues with the Audio Server, it is still early in development.

Edit: We had to temporarily disable the Audio Server. The network couldn’t handle everyone connecting at the same time! We’re already working on improvements, updates soon!

Edit: The Audio Server is back up and running, type /audio to connect!

That’s what we’ve been working on recently! All of the above features are now available for use. As always, have a great day! See you around in the Parks

Legobuilder0813 – Manager and Lead Developer

Imaginears Club has provided fun and MAGIC for families for ~5 incredible years. We’ve won awards, hosted conventions and even achieved a world record. All of that has been amazing. However, even though it has increased our Guest count (which we LOVE!), it has not increased our incoming donations.

We run with your continued support. Your donations keep our servers running, our plugins developing and our plans moving forward. Everything that happens is thanks to our wonderful Guests and their generosity.

We want to be able to continue to provide the safest, cleanest and most family-oriented experience in the most fun and unique ways possible. That takes more than we earn, at the moment, though.

Recently, donations have begun to drop, even as the number of Guests continues to increase. Because of that, our needs now outweigh our obligations. At our current rate, it is difficult for us to enhance and expand the Guest experience and further improve and develop our servers. We want to be able to add new games, servers, plugins, Cast Members, conventions and more, but it simply is not possible without your support.

Also, we have had to endure attacks on our network from individuals who sadly do not want to see us continue. Bringing our network down hurts you, our Valued Guests, and your families.

We’re asking all our Guests to share this in the hopes that we’ll find many (or even a couple of large) donations to help us continue to flourish and grow. We know you believe in family-friendly entertainment. We know you have a MAGICAL time on Imaginears Club. We know you want to see that continue. We’re just asking for a little help getting there.

Here is some of what your donations go towards:

• Servers – We have 5, but have started to exceed their capacity. They cost us, roughly, about $1000 a month
• Plugin development – MagicBands, games and more are handled by this. With github and the software, this is about $200 a month
• DDoS mitigation – We have sometimes lost network stability due to attacks and need to purchase this – Would cost us about $400 a month
• Buycraft – This is our donations portal. We pay for the basic plan, but we’d like to expand to the enterprise plan at over $250 a month.
• PayPal – This includes handling unexpected bills like when someone contests their valid donation and we have to pay $20 each time to PayPal to resolve it. Last month it cost us $250. For us, that is a lot of money.
• Research and development – This can be visits to the parks to gather needed info and images of rides, shows and attractions or software and schematics to do the same. Roughly: $500 a month
• Legitimacy – Finalizing on our goal to become a valid entity with a name and title. Cost: about $2500

That is thousands a month in bills, right now.

As you can see, we have more going out than coming in and I continue to foot the bill, personally, where I can. Still, I know out of the more than half a million Guests we have had, at least a few of them can afford to donate large amounts to help us offer this MAGICAL place to more families around the world. If every Guest who visited Imaginears Club offered us $1 each we’d have $500,000+! Now, imagine just 10,000 of you giving small amounts and you can see how helpful that can be.
So please, do whatever you can to share this, blast this on social media, or donate to help us continue to offer the safest, most fun place to play in Minecraft and quite possibly all of the gaming world.

Visit http://store.imaginears.club and make any sized donation, today! You may also contact us at [email protected] for other options to donate large amounts.

Thank you for your continued support.

Sincerely,

David Wasman – Owner and Founder of imaginears

Art of Animation Resort is now open on Imaginears Club! Head over to the Resorts server (/join Resorts) and go to /warp AoA! It’s not every day we get a new Resort for all of our Guests to stay in. When it happens, we like to celebrate! This project was quietly worked on for a very long time. Now it’s time for you to explore!

If you worried about being able to afford this, fear not. Being a Value Resort at Walt Disney World, we currently price a 3-night stay at the Art of Animation for only $100 in-game money! Before we opened this Resort, the cheapest rooms available were $400 or more! Now more of our Guests are able to stay in an Imaginears Club Hotel! Also, we won’t run out of rooms for a while. Our Art of Animation has over 1,000 rooms available for you to stay in!

To celebrate the opening of this Resort, below is a gallery of pictures taken by our Cast Members. See you in the Parks, have a great day!

Wow, you looked at all of those pictures already? You must be really excited to visit! Go check out the real thing at /warp AoA!

An update? For Creative? Are plots resetting? What’s happening? AHHHHH!!!

That has been everyone’s response to hearing about a Creative Update, and this post is going to clarify everything happening including changes and new features.

Are plots resetting? Nope! There’s no reason for us to reset it, so why would we?

Let’s go over the new stuff.

Role Play has returned

After the long disappearance of Role Play on our Creative Server, we decided to allow it again. However, there are some rules that everyone must follow in order to have a Role Play. A complete list of these rules can be found on the Creative Rules page, but here’s a summary:

• Violence of any kind is not allowed
• Blood and Gore is not allowed
• Family Role Play is not allowed

Show Creator

One of the coolest additions we’ve ever brought to our Creative Server is by far the Show Creator. With it, you’re able to create custom shows just like the ones in our Parks! The Show Creator requires an initial purchase of $500 (In-Game Money, not real money). This initial purchase gives you access to all features of the Show Creator. You can play a Music Disc (Record), have Text displayed, summon Particles, and, of course, use Fireworks! We’ve made making impressive Shows easy with a simple-to-use Menu system. If you need any help, or have any problems with the Show Creator, please ask a Cast Member! They’ll be happy to assist you.

Plot Settings

The final feature to this Creative update allows you to change the time and weather of your Plot! This new feature, Plot Settings, is in the Creative /menu. However, it is only visible when standing on a Plot that you own. Simply choose a time of day and all players on your Plot will see it as that time. The same goes for Weather. When players fly off your Plot, they will be brought back to normal time and weather.

That’s all for this Creative Update. Although a little small, these new features took a while to develop and give more abilities of creativity to you, our Guests. That’s all for now, be sure to check out these new features on our Creative Server by typing /join Creative! Have a Happy New Year!

When Imaginears Club started, there were no servers dedicated to Theme Parks anywhere in the world. So, we were 1st in theme parks and 1st to recreate Disney. This is not bragging, it is just reality. At the time, Minecraft was in its infancy and mostly played by adults. Case in point: I was an Admin on the Reddit Servers which had a strict 18 and up policy. It was the very first large server in Minecraft and the most frequented. Therefore, the silliness that “MINECRAFT IS A GAME FOR KIDS” is just … well, silly! — and not based on any factual evidence.

Fast-forward to 2015. Now, the game is hugely popular with ALL age groups, not just the adults who started playing it in the beginning. It is a game for ALL AGES. Families play together, all the time. There is no set age for a Minecraft user, either. It runs from the 90’s to toddlers.

In the many years playing, creating and expanding the game I have seen numerous servers come and go. Many of those happily inspired directly by us. I seriously could not be more proud.

To get a better idea as to how popular Minecraft Theme Parks are, I decided to compile a very small list of servers dedicated to Theme Parks. (Keep in mind: this list may contain servers that are not safe for families.)

That list is only a fraction of what is out there. (Add to that our Partner servers.) I could keep going and that list would go to the bottom of this page, easily. The point is that we are proud that the heritage continues and that this game is exceeding its original boundaries. Each server has unique offerings for their Guests. Each one of them also helps to create new and unique content.

We at Imaginears Club have never had an issue with other servers. In fact, we celebrate the diversity of our community. We’re proud to have had a small part in creating this genre.

Our goal, with our server, is to offer children and families a safe place to play, free from trolls, swearing and personal information sharing. A haven from the rest of the gaming world where bad language and worse attitudes seem to be prevalent. We believe that children deserve somewhere they can be shielded from negativity and foster an environment of joy, happiness and respect.

In recent weeks, I have been actively engaging a number of servers and their owners. I have spoken to them with respect, openness and a determination to alleviate concerns. I do not believe Guests need to know about, hear about or deal with drama in any capacity. They are not on our servers to deal with that. They are here for FUN! So, in conversing with these owners, I have been attempting to enact a peace between everyone.

I believe all the other servers wish to have the same level of Guest engagement, participation, and security we enjoy. We should all be striving for perfection and a dedication to the principles set forth by Walt Disney.

In the next year, you will see many changes in our approach to other servers and to our Guests. All of it positive.

In conclusion, whether it be our proud moment of declaration that we were inducted into the Guinness Book Of World Records, or our direct involvement in ArcadiaCon, or our assistance in helping create YouCube, or any number of our accomplishments over the years, it has NEVER been about bragging. To be honest, we didn’t even know about the Guinness thing until a Guest pointed it out, so it was about sharing the info, not rubbing it in anyone’s faces. Bragging is not our thing. (Well, we do like to brag about our Guests being amazing, but yeah). We just want to provide our valued Guests with the best possible experience, for free, and do that for many years to come. If we happen to set some records or do some awesome things, sure we will share that with the community. Who wouldn’t?

Let’s all do our part to share the accomplishments of EVERYONE in the community and create an environment of pure joy and MAGIC!

Thanks and we hope you all have a WONDERFUL holiday!

Happy Holidays everyone! Tis the season to be jolly, and we have some new things for you to play with! We went over all of the recent changes to our Parks at our December Meeting (held yesterday), let’s go over them again!

However, before we go over server updates, let’s congratulate our new Cast Members and Interns!

Interns (10):

• BowTieJason
• DisneyEmma
• hannahpeyton
• Jasrogers
• JustinTime
• Lilwhale00
• Luca_STARK
• MrRPGChicken
• xSolace
• Xtrafreckle

Cast Members (6):

• Atomizer827
• BonelessCubone
• codyalexander
• disneydolewhip
• Gamelix
• TwentyOnePielots

Congratulations to all of our new Staff Members! If you see them on the server, be sure to congratulate them! Applications to become a Cast Member are currently open here.

Throughout the whole month of December we will be showing a variety of Holiday Shows! At the Castle, you can find Holiday Wishes and Frozen Holiday Wish. Illuminations: Reflections of Earth has the Peace on Earth tag at the end of every showing. Also, on our Seasonal Server, we will be showing Holiday Dreams and a Hanukkah Show every night of Hanukkah! Times for all of these shows can be found in the Show Timetable by right-clicking your Watch.

As mentioned earlier, our Parks received a huge update this month. Here is where we’ll go over everything that was changed, added, or removed. There’s a lot, so get comfy!

• Hub is now TTC
  • This is something we’ve been wanting to do for a long time and have finally gotten around to. TTC stands for The Transportation and Ticket Center, which is what that area of the park is actually called rather than the Hub. This helps us keep with our desire to use the same names Disney uses in their Parks.
• Backpack and Locker for Storage
  • We’ve moved away from the same inventory system used by Imaginears Club for the past 4 years and have introduced Backpacks and Lockers! Backpacks are where you can store the large amounts of items you own. You can also expand your Backpack with up to three extra rows in the Storage Shop in the MagicBand. Also, Lockers aren’t new. However they have changed. You can no longer access your Locker from your MagicBand. Instead, you must visit a Locker Kiosk which are available in each of the 4 parks, Typhoon Lagoon and in any Hotel Room. This makes Lockers an area for permanent storage. You can store your Holiday items in it during the year and take them out in time for the Holidays next year. Here’s a tip on how to find a Locker Kiosk: /warp [server]lkr. For instance /warp mklkr, /warp typhoonlkr, etc.
• Shops
  • Shops were originally announced back at the beginning of the Summer. However, due to unexpected delays and other complications we weren’t able to continue work on the Shops until recently. Also, we wanted to monitor the new economy after the reset in July to ensure Shop prices would be balanced and fair. But we have them now! You’re now able to buy Plushes at the Emporium, Lightsabers at Tatooine Traders and even get a Princess Dress at the Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique. If you need help locating a Shop, just open your MagicBand and select “Shops.” A list of Shops available in your Park will be displayed and, by clicking on one, you will be warped right to that Shop. If you have any more questions about Shops, feel free to ask one of our Cast Members or Interns.
• MagicBand Updates
  • Your MagicBand has been completely updated with a new look, and so far everyone’s loving it! A few unpopular features were removed to make the Main Menu cleaner and easier to use. Most features that are not on the Main Menu were put into submenus. However, the layout is still familiar enough to make it easy to navigate.
• Queue System
  • We’ve finally fixed those pesky Queues! They never worked right, and sometimes your wait time started to count backwards! No longer will this be a problem. Also, due to popular demand, we brought back the 10-second delay when you join an empty queue so a friend can ride with you.
• DCL Room Rentals
  • Now you can rent rooms on the DCL server as well as on Resorts. However, due to the size of the ships, you may only rent rooms on the 8th floor of the Disney Dream for now. In the future we plan on expanding to the entire ship. All rooms are $800 for 3 nights. These are so expensive because they are balcony rooms. Cheaper rooms will be available soon such as the interiors.
• Watch & Show Schedule
  • One of the most frequently asked questions on Imaginears Club is “When is the next show?” Chances are you’ve wondered this at one time or another. Well, now it’s much easier for you to find out what the next show is and when! A new addition to your Inventory is the Watch. When selected, this provides you with the current time in EST, which is what Imaginears Club operates in. Also, a Show Timetable can be viewed by clicking your Watch. This Timetable is up-to-date and will tell you exactly when we plan on running shows.

There were many other bug fixes and improvements made to features that already existed that weren’t listed here. Overall your experience in our Parks should now be better than ever!

Creative has been sitting quietly and calmly for these past few months, just casually letting people build day and night. Not much has changed after we changed to PlotSquared and introduced the Creative Menu. It’s been over 3 months since Creative’s last update, so we’re going to give it more cool things!

This update will be released Christmas Eve, what a great Christmas Present! Most of the features included in this update are still top secret, but I can let you know about one of them! Many moons ago we made Role Play against the Creative Rules due to the Role Plays taking up chat space, spamming, and some weren’t following rules. On Christmas Day, we will be officially allowing Role Play on Creative again! There are a few catches, though (I think you’ll like them 🙂 ). Role Play Chat, a new feature being added, will allow for you to have your own Role Play but keep it separate from the rest of Creative’s chat. When in a chat, you will only see the messages in that chat. Also, no one else on Creative except those in your Role Play will see your chat! It’s completely separate. There are a few other minor features of the Role Play Chats that will make this the best way for us to re-introduce Role Play to the Creative Server.

As you would expect, rules must be followed. We will have a list of rules written exclusively for Role Plays on our website soon. All Role Plays must follow these rules, otherwise sad things happen 😥 . Along with this Role Play update, Creative will receive some other cool new features which will be announced in the coming weeks. Be sure to follow us on Twitter and like our Facebook page for the latest information!

NauticalCraft is now accepting applications for its Guest Relations team! These applications close today (Sunday December 6th) at 5pm, so be sure to get yours in! Also, those who want to apply to be a Builder can email their formal application and pictures to [email protected].

I’ve been with Imaginears Club for over 2 years now, and never for a minute did I think it would grow to be as amazing as it is today. This year we made a promise to our Guests to release something new every week, and we kept it! I would go over everything we did this year, but a 2015 Recap will be posted on our Website soon to encompass all of our updates and achievements. One of those being that we made another Player Count record, 540 players! That’s incredible! As I promised before our Meeting started, if we reached 500 players everyone would get 100 tokens. We reached it, so everyone got 100 free tokens!

This wraps up the last Update of 2015, have a Happy Holidays!

Legobuilder0813, Manager

Plot Clears have resumed on the Creative Server! If you are not happy with what you built on your Plot and want to start fresh, just visit /warp clear to submit a Plot Clear Request. Please be aware of the following before submitting a request:

• Requests cannot be removed once you submit one
• Only the Plot Owner may submit a request
  • If you submit for a plot you do not own, it will be considered Griefing and may result in temporary/permanent bans
• Plot Clears can take up to 72 hours to process
  • Usually Plot Clears are not processed on weekends due to the popularity of the Creative Server during those times
• You may only request a Plot Clear once every month. Any extra requests will be ignored. This is only so we can process lots of requests.

Starting Tuesday, November 10th, we will show Holiday Wishes instead of regular Wishes at /warp castle. Also, every Saturday at 3:30pm EST we will welcome our friends back from Arendelle for Frozen Holiday Wish at the Castle. These shows will continue throughout the months of November and December into the New Year. Happy Holidays, everyone!

What is Imaginears Club building next? Just this past summer, we released New Epcot, and everyone loved it! But what will we work on next? Following the completion and release of our Holiday Seasonal Server (scheduled to be released at the end of November), our Imagineer Team will begin construction of an updated Hollywood Studios Park! Since Disney is making so many drastic changes to Hollywood Studios, some areas of our updated park may be closed off or outdated until confirmed plans of the HWS update are available to us. Also, due to these updates, we cannot estimate a completion date for this new Park. However, it will come, just give us some time!

Imaginears Club is progressing to become one of the biggest, best Theme Park Servers out there. Month after month, we have so much new content for you, our Guests, to explore. Not to mention, during our Public Meeting, we hit a peak number of 495 Guests online! That’s a record-breaker, we’ve never hit that much in our history! Thank you so much! Have a great day everyone, and Happy Holidays!

“In this…business of ours, we can ill afford to rest on our laurels, even to pause in retrospect. Times and conditions change so rapidly that we must keep our aim constantly focused on the future.”  —Walt Disney

As we announced during our October public meeting, Imaginears Club is working hard to secure our future. One that expands, improves and increases our Guest experience.

To do this, we’re asking for your help. Donate anything you can so we can hire more developers, purchase more servers and create new attractions. You can do so here:  http://store.imaginears.club

Any amount will help and you will be secure in knowing every cent will go to creating the MAGIC you have become accustomed to…AND MORE! With your donations, we can begin filing the papers needed to become a business entity, open our online store, create and expand our plugins, build new parks and update existing ones, and add tons of new attractions and GAMES!

You can also spread the word. The world’s leading Family-Friendly server needs everyone’s help to show the world that good, clean, wholesome fun is not only possible online – but that it has wide support.

Thanks and have a MAGICAL day!

Our Halloween version of the Seasonal Server has been released! On it, you can ride some big roller coasters, make your way through Hay Mazes and play Bumper-Boats! You can access the Seasonal Server with either /join Seasonal or /warp Seasonal. Happy Halloween!

The Imaginears Club Dev Team likes to push out updates with new features every few months, and the next one will be the Holiday Update at the end of November. Most of the update has to remain secret, but I’ll just say we will be changing the way you manage your inventory in the Parks. You’ll just have to wait to find out what the update contains!

We’ve been running Hallowishes since mid-September, but, unfortunately, we will stop showing that November 1st and resume with normal Wishes. However, we will begin to show Holiday shows such as Frozen Holiday Wish and Holiday Wishes on November 10th and will continue showing them into 2016.

After the long wait, Soarin is now open! You can ride it now at /warp Soarin on our Epcot server. Keep in mind this ride is new, so expect there to be a few bugs in the first few weeks of it being open. Also coming in the next week or two is Mission: Space! We thought you guys have waited long enough for these two rides, and I’ve ridden both, they’re amazing!

Towards the end of October, Imaginears Club will be holding its own Epcot Food & Wine Festival for the first time! There will be races, demos, and new attractions during the festival. You can taste your way around the world, experience all sorts of different foods, and learn about cultures from different countries! We will also have some Eat to the Beat parties for everyone to enjoy.

As of today, Capture The Flag has officially been released on our Arcade Server! You and the other 9 players on your team have to capture all of the other Flags on the map before the other teams do! Make sure you protect your flag from the other 3 teams, or they’ll capture it! Play now at /join Arcade and /hub CTF.

There was certainly a lot to go over during this month’s meeting! We have so much planned in the coming months, such as Holiday Seasonal, Shows, Updates, and much more! Make sure you follow us on our Social Media accounts so you get updates straight to you as soon as they become available. Also, if you ever have any questions, comments or concerns with anything contact a Staff Member on the server or fill out a form here on our website. Have a great day, everyone!
